Time-economical synthesis of selenofunctionalized heterocycles via I2O5-mediated selenylative heterocyclization

A time-economical and robust synthesis of various selenofunctionalized heterocycles was accomplished via I2O5-mediated selenocyclizations of olefins with diselenides. Using this method, 116 selenomethyl-substituted heterocycles were

Preparation of selenofunctionalized heterocycles via iodosobenzene-mediated intramolecular selenocyclizations of olefins with diselenides

An intramolecular selenocyclizations of olefins mediated by a commercially available hypervalent iodine(III) reagent, PhIO, was developed. This method provided access to a wide range of selenenylated heterocycles under ambient conditions. The striking advantages of this protocol over all previous methods include mild reaction conditions, easy operation, good yields, high levels of functional group compatibility, large–scale application and suitability for the late-stage functionalization of complex molecules of biological importance.

Electrochemical Chalcogenation of β,γ-Unsaturated Amides and Oximes to Corresponding Oxazolines and Isoxazolines

The current report represents a transition-metal-free synthesis of oxazoline and isoxazoline derivatives by a tandem electro-oxidative chalcogenation-cyclization process. Both C?Se and C?S bond-forming protocols were developed without using any external oxidant and the reaction was performed at room temperature, open to the air. Using this methodology, 29 substituted oxazoline and 16 substituted isoxazoline derivatives were synthesized with up to 91% isolated yield. (Figure presented.).

Electrochemical oxidative cyclization of olefinic carbonyls with diselenides

The tandem cyclization of olefinic carbonyls with easily accessible diselenides facilitated by electrochemical oxidation has been successfully developed, which provides an environmentally friendly method for the construction of C-Se and C-O bonds simultaneously. A series of seleno dihydrofurans and seleno oxazolines, bearing fragile heterocycles, subtle C-I bonds and supernumerary vinyl groups, were forged using this elegant chelation strategy. Neither metal catalysts nor external chemical oxidants are required to promote this transformation.

Preparation of Heterocycles via Visible-Light-Driven Aerobic Selenation of Olefins with Diselenides

The aerobic dehydrogenative cyclization of alkenes with easily accessible diselenides facilitated by visible light is reported. Notably, the features of this transition-metal-free protocol are pronounced efficiency and practicality, good functional group

Iodosobenzene diacetate and diphenyl diselenide: An electrophilic selenenylating agent of double bonds

Phenylseleno-acetoxylation, hydroxylation, etherification and lactonization products are obtained in good yields from the reaction of alkenes with diphenyl diselenide and iodosobenzene diacetate, in acetonitrile.

Organoselenium- and Proton-Mediated Cyclization Reactions of Allylic Amides and Thioamides. Syntheses of 2-Oxazolines and 2-Thiazolines

A variety of allylic amides and thioamides were treated with phenylselenenyl bromide in chloroform to give, via 5-exo cyclization, 2-oxazolines and 2-thiazolines, respectively, carrying a (phenylselenenyl)methyl substituent in the 5-position.In some cases (N-crotyl- and N-cinnamylamides/thioamides), dihydro-1,3-oxazines/-thiazines were formed via 6-endo cyclization.The phenylselenenyl group of the cyclofunctionalization products was slowly eliminated by treatment with m-chloroperbenzoic acid to introduce unsaturation in the resulting oxazoline/thiazoline.Reductive removal of the phenylselenenyl group was effected by treatment with triphenyltin hydride.This reaction was sometimes accompanied by a rearrangement of the heterocyclic ring.Proton-induced cyclizations of allylic thioamides to give 2-thiazolines was slowly but efficiently effected in boiling toluene containing a catalytic amount of p-toluenesulfonic acid.

Ring-Closure Reactions Initiated by the Peroxydisulfate Ion Oxidation of Diphenyl Diselenide

The oxidation of diphenyl diselenide with ammonium peroxydisulfate proceeded cleanly to afford phenylselenium cations and sulfate anions.This is a very simple and efficient method to produce phenylselenium cations in the absence of nucleophilic counterions.This reaction was employed to effect selenium-induced ring closure reactions starting from alkenes containing internal nucleophiles.Thus, unsaturated alcohols and amides, β-diketones and β-keto esters gave the products of phenylselenoetherification.The same process occurred with dienes and unsaturated ketones when the reaction was carried out in the presence of water or methanol, respectively.Unsaturated acids, esters, and imides afforded the phenylselenolactonization products.
