Trifluoroacetylation of (trifluoroacetyl)ketene N,O-, N,S- and S,S-acetals [4-dialkylamino-4-ethoxy(methylthio)-1,1,1-trifluoro-3-buten-2-one and 4,4-bis(methylthio)-1,1,1-trifluoro-3-buten-2-one] gives the corresponding 1,1,1-trifluoro-3-(trifluoroacetyl)-3-buten-2-ones. 4-Amino- and 4-alkyl(aryl)thio-1,1,1-trifluoro-3 -(trifluoroacetyl)-3-buten-2-ones are obtained by O-N and O-S exchange reactions of 1,1,1-trifluoro-4-isobutoxy-3-(trifluoroacetyl)-3-buten-2-one with amines and thiols, respectively.
