A new protocol was developed to synthesize (enantioenriched) thioethers and selenoethers from (chiral) benzylic trimethylammonium salts and di(hetero)aryl disulfides or diselenides. These syntheses were promoted by the presence of weak base and did not require the use of any transition metal, and resulted in the target products with good to excellent yields (72-94%). Using quaternary ammonium salts synthesized from enantiomerically enriched amines led to highly enantiopure benzylic thioethers and selenoethers (94-99% ee) with configurations reversed from those of their enantioenriched quaternary ammonium salts.

An efficient and selective approach to the synthesis of selenide ethers containing one or two geminal C–Se bonds from readily available diselenides and phenylacetic acids was developed. Compounds containing one C–Se bond were prepared by employing air as the oxidant under metal-free conditions, whereas compounds having two geminal C–Se bonds were formed via the iron(III) chloride/oxygen/cesium carbonate (FeCl3/O2/Cs2CO3) system. Moreover, 1,2-diphenyldisulfane also could be smoothly converted into the corresponding sulfur ether product under the standard reaction conditions. (Figure presented.).
