NUCLEOPHILIC DISPLACEMENT REACTIONS AT Se(II). REACTION OF ARENESELENENYL CHLORIDES AND 2-CHLOROALKYL PHENYL SELENIDES
The products of the title reaction depend upon the relative concentrations of reactants.With equimolar concentrations or an excess of 2-chloroalkyl phenyl selenide, the products are 1,2-dichloroethane and a diaryldiselenide.When excess areneselenenyl chloride is used, the products are a diaryl diselenide and 2-chloroalkyl phenyl selenide dichloride.A mechanism involving nucleophilic displacement at selenenyl selenium is proposed to account for the observed products.Structural changes in the selenide on varying substituents in the 4-position of areneselenenyl chloride has little effect on the rate of the reaction.In the proposed continuum of mechanisms of nucleophilic displacement reactions at Se(II), an SN2-like transition state best accounts for the data.

Involvement of Neighboring Chlorine in the Exchange Reactions of Iodine Monochloride and Vicinal Organic Iodochlorides
The reaction of vicinal organic iodochlorides and ICl in CCl4 at 25 deg C forms vicinal organic dichlorides and iodine.The rate law for this exchange reaction of ICl and 2-chloro-3-iodo-2,3-dimethylbutane is overall third order: second order in ICl and first order in iodochloride with a value of k3 = 7.2 +/- 0.9 M-2s-1.Stereospecific exchange occurs in the reaction ICl and erythro- and threo-2-chloro-3-iodobutane.Thus the erythro isomer forms only meso-2,3-dichlorobutane while the threo isomers form only the dl dichloride.Nonstereospecific exchange occurs in the reaction of ICl and erythro- and threo-1-chloro-2-iodo-1-phenylpropane.The data support a mechanism involving a cationic intermediate.In addition, the chlorine atom is involved in the reaction prior to the product-determining step.
