Odorless diphenyl diselenide and disulfide: Syntheses and applications

Bis[4-(trimethylsilyl)phenyl]diselenide (3) and bis[4-(trimethylsilyl) phenyl]disulfide (31) are found to be odorless equivalents of the commonly used diphenyl diselenide and diphenyl disulfide, respectively. The diselenide 3 is shown to be useful in the preparation of odorless selenium(II) chloride 26 and selenium(IV) trichloride 28 that follow similar reactivity patterns to their phenyl derivatives and can be stored refrigerated under dry conditions. The corresponding selenium(II) bromide had to be prepared fresh from 3 before use. It is also shown that the trimethylsilyl group in the sulfide products can be protodesilylated quantitatively using TFA. Georg Thieme Verlag Stuttgart.

A CONVENIENT METHOD FOR THE SYNTHESIS OF α-PHENYLSELENENYL CARBONYL COMPOUNDS

Treatment of ketones or aldehydes with selenium dioxide and diphenyl diselenide in the presence of acid catalyst afforded the corresponding α-phenylselenenyl carbonyl compounds in good yields.
