General, Mild, and Metal-Free Synthesis of Phenyl Selenoesters from Anhydrides and Their Use in Peptide Synthesis

A mild, practical, and simple procedure for phenyl selenoesters synthesis from several anhydrides and diphenyl diselenide was developed. This transition-metal-free method provides a straightforward entry to storable Fmoc-amino acid selenoesters which are effective chemoselective acylating reagents. An application to oligopeptide synthesis was illustrated.

Synthesis of selenol esters from diorganyl diselenides and acyl chlorides under solvent-free conditions and microwave irradiation

Herein, we report an efficient, quick and eco-friendly new method for the synthesis of a variety of selenol esters. This novel solvent-free methodology gave good to excellent isolated yields of desired products after just 2 min under microwave irradiation

Ionic liquid: An efficient and reusable media for seleno- and thioester synthesis promoted by indium

A series of thio and selenoesters were efficiently obtained employing stable diorganyl chalcogenides, acyl chlorides, and In as reducing agent in BMIM·PF6. Recycling of the ionic liquid was also performed, which was reused three times.

Indium-mediated cleavage of diphenyl diselenide and diphenyl disulfide: efficient one-pot synthesis of unsymmetrical diorganyl selenides, sulfides, and selenoesters

A convenient and efficient method was developed for the synthesis of alkyl phenyl selenides, sulfides, and selenoesters in one-pot reaction by using indium metal. The reaction showed the selectivity for tert-alkyl, benzylic, and allylic halides over primary and secondary alkyl halides. For the reaction of primary and secondary alkyl iodides and bromides, the yields of selenides were improved by the addition of a catalytic amount of iodine.

Efficient synthesis of selenol esters from acid chlorides mediated by indium metal

This article describes an efficient and easy one-pot route for the synthesis of a wide range of selenol esters from acyl chloride with diselenides in the presence of indium metal. A variety of functional groups can be tolerated within the diorgano diselenide and the acyl chloride coupling partner.

Reductive cleavage of the Se-Se bond in the presence of a Zn/AlCl 3 system: Synthesis of selenol esters

Selenol esters were prepared in good yields by reacting diselenides with carboxylic acid anhydrides in dry acetonitrile in the presence of a Zn/AlCl 3 system.

Phenyl tributylstannyl selenide as a promising reagent for introducion of the phenylseleno group

A new synthetic method of organoselenium compounds has been developed. When phenyl tributylstannyl selenide (PhSeSnBu3) was allowed to react with acyl or aroyl chlorides in the presence of a catalytic amount of a palladium complex such as Pd(PPh3)4, Se-phenyl selenol esters were obtained in moderate to good yields. Similarly, the palladium complex catalyzed the reaction of PhSeSnBu3 with α-halo carbonyl compounds to afford the corresponding α-phenyseleno carbonyl compounds in moderate yields.

Oxidation of Hydrazines with Benzeneseleninic Acid and Anhydride

Benzeneseleninic acid (1) and anhydride (2) oxidize hydrazine or 1,2-disubstituted derivatives to corresponding diazenes.Hydrazides afford selenoesters 4, N,N'-diacyl- or diaroylhydrazines 5, and carboxylic acids.Benzeneselenenic acid (7) is a required intermediate in selenoester formation and may be generated independently by the reaction of triphenylphosphine with 1.Selenoesters are efficiently prepared by the slow addition of a mixture of the hydrazide and triphenylphosphine to 1 in dichloromethane solution.Polar solvents are unsuitable.Inverse addition provides compounds 5 as major products.Oxidation of hydrazides of structure HO-(CH2)nCONHNH2 gives the corresponding selenoesters 14 and acids 16 when n=11 or 14 lactones 17 and 18 when n=4 or 3.Arylhydrazines react with 1 or 2 to furnish arenes 23 and aryl phenyl selenides 24.
