Selective synthesis of 3-Selanylindoles from Indoles and Diselenides using IK/mCPBA system

In the presence of a catalytic amount of KI combined with oxidant mCPBA, a convenient catalytic procedure is developed for the preparation of 3-selanylindoles from indoles and diselenides. In this protocol, KI is first oxidized by mCPBA into hypoiodous acid, which reacts with diselenide to cleave Se-Se bond. The in situ generated active electrophilic selenium species then reacts with indole, affording 3-selanylindole via an electrophilic substitution mechanism. This catalytic selenation of indoles has mild reaction conditions and is a simple procedure, which extends the synthetic application of KI in organic synthesis.

Preparation method of 3-arylseleno-1H-indoles

The invention provides a preparation method of 3-arylseleno-1H-indoles. Specifically, corresponding 3-arylseleno-1H-indoles are generated from aromatic heterocyclic compounds and symmetric diselenidesthrough a reaction in an organic solvent under irradiation of a blue LED lamp, preferably, the reaction is performed in presence of FIrPic (bis(4,6-difluorophenylpyridinato-N,C2)picolinatoiridium). The preparation method is simple and convenient to operate, a reagent is obtained easily, a catalyst is safe and pollution-free, the requirement of green chemistry is met, and the catalyst is stable inproperty and high in catalytic efficiency; yield and purity of 3-arylseleno-1H-indoles prepared with the method are both higher.

In this report, the highly efficient Rose Bengal-catalysed C(sp2)-H selenylation of indoles, imidazoles and arenes was achieved using a half molar equiv. of diorganoyl diselenides. This metal-free, photo-induced protocol resulted in selenylated

NaBr mediated regioselective synthesis of 3-Selanylindoles

A convenient NaBr mediated procedure is developed for the preparation of 3-selanylindoles from indoles and diselenides. In this protocol, NaBr is first oxidized by mCPBA into molecular bromine, which reacts with diselenide to form RSeBr. The in situ generated active electrophilic selenium species, then reacts with indoles, affording a series of 3-selanylindoles with high regioselectivity and in moderate to good yields.
