A convenient synthesis of MeSeLi from MeLi and Se8 in tetrahydrofuran (THF) has been used to prepare the bis-selenoethers MeSenSeMe (n = 1,2,3,6, or 12) and cis-MeSeCH=CHSeMe.PhSenSePh (n = 1-3) and cis-PhSeCH=CHSePh have been prepared from PhSe-, itself produced from Ph2Se2 and LiALH4-THF or sodium hydroxymethanesulphinate.The bis-selenoethers o-C6H4(SeR)2 (R = Me or Ph) were obtained from R2Se2 and benzyne.The syntheses of (RSeCH2)3CMe (R = Me or Ph), (MeSeCH2)4C, and (MeSeCH2CH2CH2)2Se are also described.The 1H, 13C, and 77Se n.m.r. spectra of these selenoethers have been recorded, and the chemical shifts and coupling constants (nJSe-H, nJSe-C) are discussed in terms of structures.Mass spectra of the selenoethers have been recorded and the principle fragmentation modes identified.
