Synthesis of a novel family of water-soluble 2H,3H-[1,3]thia- and -selenazolo[3,2-a]pyridin-4-ium heterocycles by annulation reactions
Regioselective synthesis of a novel family of water-soluble 2H,3H-[1,3]chalcogenazolo[3,2-a]pyridin-4-ium derivatives was developed based on 2-pyridinesulfenyl and -selenenyl halides and unsaturated compounds. The annulation reactions with divinyl sulfide

A study on the antioxidant activity of pyridylselenium compounds and their slow release from poly(acrylamide) hydrogels
The antioxidant activity of pyridylselenium compounds has been evaluated by 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) free radical and nitric oxide (NO) scavenging methods. Pyridylselenium compounds have shown far superior (100-1000 times) antioxidant property than ebselen. The control release of bis(2-pyridyl) diselenide from poly(acrylamide) hydrogels has been studied in order to evaluate its release mechanism and diffusion coefficient. The later study also demonstrates that the pyridylselenium loading into the polymer matrix increases the magnitude and the rate of the radical scavenging activity of the poly(acrylamide) hydrogels.

Pyridylseleno Group in Organic Synthesis. Preparation and Oxidation of α-(2-Pyridylseleno) Carbonyl Compounds Leading to α,β-Unsaturated Ketones and Aldehydes
α-(2-Pyridylseleno) carbonyl compounds (A) were prepared by the reaction of ketones or aldehydes with 2-pyridylselenenyl bromide under various conditions (acidic, basic, or after conversion to silyl enol ethers) in good to excellent yields.Oxidation of A thus prepared affords α,β-unsaturated carbonyl compounds in excellent yields even in the cases where satisfactory results were not obtained by the oxidation of the corresponding α-phenylseleno carbonyl compounds.These results indicate that the 2-pyridylseleno group is a better leaving group than the phenylseleno group in selenoxide elimination leading to enones.
