A convenient method has been developed for the synthesis of α-carbonyl selenocyanates from aryl methyl ketones/styryl methyl ketones using selenium dioxide as the selenating agent under simple reaction conditions. This reaction has notable advantages over the traditional methods in terms of accessibility and affordability of the starting materials. The method features the interaction of aryl methyl ketones/styryl methyl ketones with selenium dioxide and malononitrile to afford a series of α-carbonyl selenocyanates in moderate to good yields.

3,6-Dihydro-2H-selenopyrans 2 with an electron-withdrawing group at the 2-position were prepared by the Diels-Alder reaction of butadienes with selenoaldehydes generated in situ from selenocyanates 1 and triethylamine. Oxidation of the dihydroselenopyraus 2 with 1.5 eq of m-chloroperbenzoic acid provided 2H-selenopyraus 9 and 3,6-dihydro-2H-selenopyran-2-yl m-chlorobenzoates 10. The benzoates 10 were smoothly converted into the selenopyrans 9 using polyphosphoric acid trimethylsilyl ester. The selenopyrans 9 were methylated with methyl trifluoromethanesuflonate to give Se-methyl selenopyranium trifluoromethanesulfonates 12. Deprotonation of the selenonium salts 12 with sodium hydride or triethylamine generated the selenabenzene derivatives 13, but they were too unstable to be isolated. Therefore, we confirmed the generation of 13 by 1H- and 13C-NMR spectroscopy at -30°C.
