The alkene geometry isn't really important since it gets reduced later on anyway.

Yeah, but it makes it a more interesting question. H vs F..

The compound E can be synthesized by only two steps: ethyl nitroacetate condensed with trifluoroacetone then hydrogenation.

For A ,i think vinyl amine can do the work,e.g. N-vinyl tetrahydropyrrole.
