Phenylselenoetherification, a new cyclization procedure based on organoselenium chemistry, is described in detail.Unsaturated hydroxy and thio compounds were subjected to this new cyclization process to afford a series of phenyl selenoethers and phenyl selenothioethers which were transformed to a variety of heterocyclic systems by reductive or oxidative removal of the selenium group.Applications to the synthesis of muscarine analogues are described.
