Treatment of sulfonium and selenium salts with 2 equiv of a THF solution of samarium diiodide caused the reductive cleavage of the C-S or C-Se bonds in high yields.The bond cleavage took place regioselectively between the positive sulfur or selenium atom and the carbon atom with an electron-withdrawing group or a vinyl group.Some medium-sized cyclic sulfides or selenides were synthesized by this method.

2-Methyl-3,4-dihydro-1H-2-benzoselenopyranium salt (1) was reduced by some metallic reagents or magnesium metal via the single-electron transfer (SET) process to give 2--toluene (2).Magnesium metal was a good SET reducing agent.Some other selenonium or sulphonium salts (7), (14), (22), (27) and (32) were similarly reduced by magnesium.Particularly, sonication accelerated the reductions. ε-Eneselenonium salt (43) was treated with activated magnesium to give a cyclised pyrrolidine derivative (44).
