Synthesis of 2-unsubstituted 1,3-selenazoles by cyclization of selenoformamide with α-bromocarbonyl compounds

2-Unsubstituted 1,3-selenazoles were prepared by cyclization of selenoformamide with α-bromoacetophenones. Parent 1,3-selenazole was prepared by cyclization of selenoformamide with α-bromoacetaldehyde.

SYNTHESES WITH DIKETO SELENIDES

We report a) a modified synthesis of diketo selenides, b) preparation of 2,5-diacylselenophenes by condensation of diketoselenides with glyoxal, c) preparation of poly-substituted selenophenes by intramolecular reductive coupling reaction of diketo selenides with low-valent titanium reagent under controlled conditions (0 degC) followed by dehydratation of the resulting 3,4-dihydroxyselenolanes, and d) formation of 2,5-dihydroselenophenes and 1,3-dienes by treatment of diketo selenides with the low-valent titanium reagent in refluxing tetrahydrofuran.

PREPARATION OF 2,5-DIACYLSELENOPHENES BY CONDENSATION 0F α,α'-DIKETOSELENIDES WITH GLYOXAL

The reaction of selenium oxychloride with 2 equiv. of ketones affords α,α'-diketo selenide dichlorides (1) in excellent yields.Portionwise addition of 1 to a stirred two-phase mixture of an aqueous sodium dithionite solution and benzene gives α,α'-diketo
