A simple, scalable synthetic methodology for the synthesis of N,N-dimethyltrifluoromethanesulfonamide (DMTMSA) and other trifluoromethanesulfonamide solvents is described. No specialized glassware is required, water is the solvent, and an ice bath is used for cooling. Up to 155 g of DMTMSA is synthesized in a single batch in 92% yield.
