Trichloroisocyanuric Acid-Promoted Synthesis of Arylselenides and Aryltellurides from Diorganyl Dichalcogenides and Arylboronic Acids at Ambient Temperature

A transition-metal-free method for the synthesis of arylselenides and aryltellurides has been established based on the oxidative cross-coupling between diorganyl dichalcogenides and aryl boronic acids. With trichloroisocyanuric acid as an oxidant, the reaction proceeded smoothly to afford the desired products in 45–97% yields at ambient temperature. Three reaction reagents used in this method are stoichiometric and the oxidation by-product isocyanuric acid can be easily isolated and recovered. Besides of arylboronic acids, aryl trifluoroborates and aryl trihydroxyborates salts are also able to perform this transformation. (Figure presented.).

Metal-Free Synthesis of Unsymmetrical Aryl Selenides and Tellurides via Visible Light-Driven Activation of Arylazo Sulfones

A protocol for the visible light driven preparation of unsymmetrical (hetero)aryl selenides and tellurides is described herein. The method exploits the peculiar photoreactivity of arylazo sulfones that act as thermally stable, precursors of aryl radicals under both photocatalyst- and additive-free conditions. The method developed shows an impressive versatility (more than fifty compounds isolated).

Method for preparing asymmetric organic selenium ether compounds through metal-free chemical oxidation method (by machine translation)

The method is mild in reaction condition, convenient to operate, high in 1 reaction condition, convenient 2 to operate, high in safety, wide in substrate range, high 2 - 8h in yield, particularly suitable for reaction of various poor 3 electric and sterically hindered arylboronic acid and diselenoxy ether, and capable of finishing most of the reaction 4h.

Visible light photocatalyzed direct conversion of aryl-/heteroarylamines to selenides at room temperature

A novel strategy for the direct conversion of aryl- and heteroarylamines to selenides has been developed via diazotization of amines with tert-butyl nitrite in neutral medium followed by reaction with diaryl/diheteroaryl/dialkyl diselenides in one pot under photocatalysis at room temperature in the absence of any metal. This reaction is also applied for the synthesis of tellurides. The selenylation of heteroarylamine by this protocol is of much significance because of the difficulty in diazotization of these molecules by a standard diazotization method in acid medium.

Copper-catalyzed C-Se coupling of diphenyl diselenide with arylboronic acids at room temperature

An efficient synthetic protocol for the Cu-catalyzed cross-coupling of diphenyl diselenide and arylboronic acid at room temperature was described. This catalytic system could tolerate a variety of arylboronic acids with only 3 mol % amount of CuSO4 as the catalyst and inexpensive 1,10-phen. H 2O as the ligand. Moreover, this catalytic system used environment-friendly EtOH as the solvent and catalytic amount of Na 2CO3 (20 mol %) as the base in the air.

Transition-metal-free synthesis of unsymmetrical diaryl chalcogenides from arenes and diaryl dichalcogenides

A transition-metal-free synthetic method has been developed for the synthesis of unsymmetrical diaryl chalcogenides (S, Se, and Te) from diaryl dichalcogenides and arenes under oxidative conditions by using potassium persulfate at room temperature. Variously substituted arenes such as anisole, thioanisole, diphenyl ether, phenol, naphthol, di- and trimethoxy benzenes, xylene, mesitylene, N,N-dimethylaniline, bromine-substituted arenes, naphthalene, and diaryl dichalcogenides underwent carbon-chalcogen bond-forming reaction to give unsymmetrical diaryl chalcogenides in trifluoroacetic acid. To understand the mechanistic part of the reaction, a detailed in situ characterization of the intermediates has been carried out by 77Se NMR spectroscopy by using diphenyl diselenide as the substrate. 77Se NMR study suggests that electrophilic species ArE+ is generated by the reaction of diaryl dichalcogenide with persulfate in trifluoroacetic acid. The electrophilic attack of arylchalcogenium ion on the arene may be responsible for the formation of the aryl-chalcogen bond.

Lewis acid InBr3-catalyzed arylation of diorgano diselenides and ditellurides with arylboronic acids

A novel Lewis acid InBr3-catalyzed direct cross-coupling reaction of arylboronic acids with diorgano diselenides and ditellurides without any additive has been developed. The reactions generated the corresponding unsymmetrical diorgano monoselenides and monotellurides in good to excellent yields. The method has advantages of broad substrate scope, simple operation, mild reaction conditions and high effectiveness. A possible reaction mechanism was proposed.

Iron-catalyzed ligand-free carbon-selenium (or tellurium) coupling of arylboronie acids with diselenides and ditellurides

Carbon-selenium and carbon-tellurium cross-couplings of arylboronie acids with diselenides and ditellurides have been catalyzed by iron(0), iron(II) chloride or iron(III) chloride without any ligand and additive in the air. The method yields the corresponding unsymmetrical diorgano monoselenides and monotellurides in good to excellent yields, displays a broad substrate scope, and is simple, convenient, effective, economical and environmentally friendly.
