The first example for the electrochemical cis-dichlorination of alkenes is presented. The reaction can be performed with little experimental effort by using phenylselenyl chloride as catalyst and tetrabutylammoniumchloride as supporting electrolyte, which also acts as nucleophilic reagent for the SN2-type replacement of selenium versus chloride. Cyclic voltammetric measurements and control experiments revealed a dual role of phenylselenyl chloride in the reaction. Based on these results a reaction mechanism was postulated, where the key step of the process is the activation of a phenylselenyl chloride-alkene adduct by electrochemically generated phenylselenyl trichloride. Like this, different aliphatic and aromatic cyclic and acyclic alkenes were converted to the dichlorinated products. Thereby, throughout high diastereoselectivities were achieved for the cis-chlorinated compounds of >95 : 5 or higher.

Diphenyl diselenide (PhSeSePh) was effective as a pre-catalyst for the vicinal dichlorination of α,β-unsaturated phosphonates with sulfuryl chloride. The reaction conditions were mild and the desired products were formed in up to 93% yield and moderate diastereoselectivity (10:1). The important diphenylselenium dichloride intermediate was obtained and characterized by X-ray crystallography.

A mild and efficient protocol for the preparation of 1,2-dichloroalkane derivatives from olefins using NH4Cl and Oxone at room temperature is described. A variety of terminal, internal, and cyclic alkenes reacted smoothly to give the corresponding dichlorinated products in good to excellent yields. Moreover, 1,2-disubstituted symmetrical and unsymmetrical olefins dichlorinated with moderate to excellent diastereoselectivity. This method precludes the use of acidic additives and transition metals in the synthesis of vicinal dichlorides.
