Usage

General Description

Bis(4-methoxybenzyl)diselane is a complex organic compound which is generally used in the field of chemistry, particularly in laboratory settings, as an intermediate in organic synthesis. It comprises of two parts which are made up of 4-methoxybenzyl group, linked by diselane (a molecule with two selenium atoms). It's a colorless, liquid chemical at room temperature. Due to the presence of Selenium, it is necessary to handle bis(4-methoxybenzyl)diselane with care as selenium compounds can be toxic. It is not a naturally occurring chemical, but instead a man-made substance for specific scientific applications.

Toward Enantiomerically Pure β-Seleno-α-amino Acids via Stereoselective Se-Michael Additions to Chiral Dehydroalanines

The first totally chemo- and diastereoselective 1,4-conjugate additions of Se-nucleophiles to a chiral bicyclic dehydroalanine (Dha) are described. The methodology is simple and does not require any catalyst, providing exceptional yields at room temperature, and involves the treatment of the corresponding diselenide compound with NaBH4 in the presence of the Dha. These Se-Michael additions provide an excellent channel for the synthesis of enantiomerically pure selenocysteine (Sec) derivatives, which pose high potential for chemical biology applications.

Synthesis of Dibenzylic Diselenides from Elemental Selenium and Benzylic Quaternary Ammonium Salts

Abstract: Substituted dibenzyl diselenides are synthesized in good yields (74–91 %) by SN2 nucleophilic substitution of benzylic trimethylammonium salts and diselenide dianion (Se2?), in situ generated from elemental selenium, under

Design, synthesis, and biological evaluation of novel miconazole analogues containing selenium as potent antifungal agents

Herein, based on the theory of bioisosterism, a series of novel miconazole analogues containing selenium were designed, synthesized and their inhibitory effects on thirteen strains of pathogenic fungi were evaluated. It is especially encouraging that all the novel target compounds displayed significant antifungal activities against all tested strains. Furthermore, all the target compounds showed excellent inhibitory effects on fluconazole-resistant fungi. Subsequently, preliminary mechanistic studies indicated that the representative compound A03 had a strong inhibitory effect on C.alb. CYP51. Moreover, the target compounds could prevent the formation of fungi biofilms. Further hemolysis test verified that potential compounds had higher safety than miconazole. In addition, molecular docking study provided the interaction modes between the target compounds and C.alb. CYP51. These results strongly suggested that some target compounds are promising as novel antifungal drugs.
