Zinc-mediated synthesis of tertiary alkyl selenides from tertiary alkyl halides

Diorganyl selenides are efficiently synthesized from tertiary alkyl halides, selenols or selenolates and zinc dibromide as well as from diselenides in the presence of zinc. Georg Thieme Verlag Stuttgart.

A novel synthesis of benzyl sulfides and selenides via SM/BiCl3 system in aqueous media

Benzyl sulfides and selenides are synthesized via reaction of benzyl bromide with disulfides and diselenides prorated by Srn/BiCl3 system in aqueous media in moderate to good yields.

Unusual Application for Phosphonium Salts and Phosphoranes: Synthesis of Chalcogenides

A novel strategy for the synthesis of sulfides and selenides from phosphonium salts and thio- or selenesulfonates, commercially available compounds, is described. When phosphoranes were used in the reaction, different products were obtained. The methodology does not require the use of metals, reactive species, or anhydrous conditions to be performed.

O-(tert-butyl) Se-phenyl selenocarbonate: A convenient, bench-stable and metal-free precursor of benzeneselenol

A study by our laboratory shows that air, light and moisture stable O-(tert-butyl) Se-phenyl selenocarbonate could be employed as a safer, practical and efficient alternative to generate “in situ” benzeneselenol or benzeneselenolate anion under different and transition metal-free conditions. This procedure seems to be of general application since the nucleophilic selenium species obtained can be trapped by electrophiles such as alkyl halides, epoxides and electron-deficient alkenes and alkynes under different reaction conditions.

Rhodium-Catalyzed Carbene Transfer Reactions for Sigmatropic Rearrangement Reactions of Selenium Ylides

The rearrangement of selenium ylides is even today almost unexplored, although it would provide access to important organoselenium compounds with broad downstream applications. In this report, the first systematic study of sigmatropic rearrangement reactions of selenium ylides using a simple rhodium catalyst with catalyst loadings as low as 0.01 mol % is described. Selenium oxide pyrolysis of the rearrangement products gives access to important 1,1-disubstituted butadienes.
