A highly efficient heterogeneous ruthenium(III)-catalyzed reaction of diaryl diselenides with alkyl halides was achieved in DMF at 100?°C in the presence of 2?mol% of an MCM-41-immobilized bidentate nitrogen ruthenium(III) complex [MCM-41-2N-RuCl3] and zinc, yielding a variety of unsymmetrical diorganyl selenides in good to excellent yields. This new heterogeneous ruthenium catalyst can easily be prepared via a simple two-step procedure from commercially readily available and inexpensive reagents, and recovered by filtration of the reaction solution and recycled for at least eight times without a significant loss of activity.

The synthesis of 10-15 membered α-methylene macrocyclic lactones from the functionalised allylstannanes (7e)-(7j) is described. Attempts to synthesise analogous 6-9 membered lactones proved unsuccessful, resulting instead in the production of dilactones and AIBN derived adducts.

The synthesis of 10-15 membered α-methylene lactones 1 from the functionalised allyl stannanes 2 occurs cleanly in moderate to high yield under free radical conditions via an intramolecular SH2' reaction.

Treatment of alcohols with tert-butyl hydroperoxide in the presence of diaryl diselenide in refluxing benzene gives the corresponding aldehydes or ketones.Although some allylic alcohols undergo oxidation in the presence of 10-15 mol percent of bis(p-chlorophenyl) diselenide, use of 0.5 equiv of bis(2,4,6-trimethylphenyl) diselenide gives satisfactory results in almost all cases.The procedure can be used for selective oxidation of alcohols bearing a phenylthio or phenylseleno group, which usually survives the reaction conditions to give the corresponding carbonyl compounds.
