Benzeneselenenyl p-toluenesulfonate (1) was generated in situ by the reaction of silver p-toluenesulfonate with benzeneselenenyl chloride in acetonitrile.The reagent reacted with acetylenes by electrophilic 1,2-addition to afford the β-(phenylseleno)vinyl p-toluenesulfonates 2-12, generally in high yield.The latter were formed preferentially by anti addition, but with poor regioselectivity, unless a strongly orienting group (e.g., phenyl) was present.Selenenyl sulfonate 1 was also unexpectedly produced via radical pathways by heating p-toluenesulfonic acid with AIBN in the presence of diphenyl diselenide, or from the pyrolysis of sulfinyl sulfone 15 with the diselenide.The regioisomeric adducts 3 and 4 were prepared from 1 and 1-decyne, and both underwent elimination with potassium tert-butoxide to afford the acetylenic selenide 19 initially, which isomerized to a 6:1 mixture of the propargylic and allenic selenides 20 and 21 upon further equilibration.A Fritsch-Buttenberg-Wiechell rearrangement is proposed for the elimination of 4.The syn elimination of the selenoxide of 4 required forcing conditions and afforded only ca. 20percent of the corresponding allenic sulfonate 22.The electrophile 1 induced the efficient cyclization of 5-hexen-1-ol and 4-pentenoic acid to the corresponding pyran 24 and lactone 25, respectively.It failed to cyclize alkynols, but afforded the lactones 28 and 29 from 4-pentynoic acid in low yield.

Regio- and stereo-specific thio- and seleno-lactonizations of hept-4-ynoic acid (1a), hex-4-ynoic acid (1b), and pent-4-ynoic acid (1c) can be achieved by treatment of benzenesulphenyl chloride and benzeneselenyl chloride using a hydrogen chloride capture
Selenolactonization of Alkynoic Acids with N-Phenylselenophthalimide: Novel Isomerization Reaction of a Vinyl Selenide

Selenolactonization is stereoselective and regiospecific for hex-4-ynoic and hept-4-ynoic acids (1a) and (1b), but pent-4-ynoic acid (1c) gives a mixture of stereoisomers.
