Nitronaphthalene derivatives react as Michael acceptors in the Corey-Chaykovsky reaction with alkyl phenyl selenones and alkyl diphenyl sulfonium salts. Mechanistic studies reveal that sterically demanding substituents at the carbanionic center favor formation of cyclopropanes and suppress competitive β-elimination to the alkylated products. The transformation, demonstrated also on heterocyclic nitroquinoline and nitroindazolines, is an example of transition metal-free dearomatization method.

Organic halides of different structural types react with diphenyl diselenide and zinc dust in aqueous medium to give alkyl phenyl selenides. Benzylic and allylic bromides, α-bromoesters, acids and ketones and some primary alkyl iodides produce high yields even under acidic conditions. Less reactive halides need basic medium. The reaction proceeds equally well in the presence of various unprotected functional groups. Control experiments support a SH2 mechanism via alkyl radicals.

The relative reactivities of alkylmercury halides toward PhS., PhSe., or I. decrease drastically from R = tert-butyl to R = sec-alkyl to R = n-butyl, indicative that R. is formed in the rate-determining step in the attack of these radicals upon RHgCl.The alkyl radicals thus formed will enter into chain reactions in which a heteroatom-centered radical (A.) is regenerated from substrates such as RS-SR, ArSe-SeAr, ArTe-TeAr, PhSe-SO2Ar, Cl-SO2Ph; ZCH=CHA (A = Cl, I, SPh, SO2Ph); or PhCCHA (A = I, SPh, SO2Ph). β-Styrenyl (PhCH=CHA, Ph2C=CHA) and β-phenethynyl (PhCCA) systems with A = I, Br, SO2Ph also enter into chain reactions with mercury(II) salts with the ligands PhS, PhSe, PhSO2, or (EtO)2PO.The relative reactivities of a series of reagents toward t-Bu. and of PhCH=CHA, Ph2C=CHA, and PhCCA toward c-C6H11. are reported as well as the regioselectivity of t-Bu. attack observed for 1,2-disubstituted ethylenes (ZCH=CHA) with Z and A from the group Ph, Cl, Br, I, SO2Ph, SPh, Bu3Sn.Reactions of (E)- and (Z)-PhCH=CHI or MeO2CCH=CHI with t-Bu. or c-C6H11. occurred in a regioselective and stereospecific (retention) manner.Reactions of (E)- and (Z)-ClCH=CHCl occurred in a nonstereospecific manner in which the E/Z product ratio increased with the bulk of the attacking radical.A similar effect on the E/Z product ratios was observed for (Z)-MeO2CCH=CHCl.

The photostimulated reaction of neopentyl bromide (1) with benzenethiolate ion gave neopentyl phenyl sulfide in high yields.The photostimulated reaction of 1 with benzeneselenate ion gave neopentyl phenyl selenide, dineopentyl selenide, and diphenyl selenide but in low overall yields.The photostimulated reaction of 1 with diphenylphosphide and diphenylarsenide ions gave good yields of the substitution products.These reactions are slow in the dark and the photostimulated reactions are inhibited by radical scavengers such as di-tert-butyl nitroxide.All these resultssuggest that 1 reacts with these nucleophiles by the SRN1 mechanism of nucleophilic substitution.
