Synthese d'lsosélénazoles et de benzisosélénazoles-1,2

Benzisoselenazoles as Selenophenolate Anion Surrogates for the Formation of Carbon-Selenium Bonds via the Selena-Kemp Reaction

The in situ base-promoted generation of unstable selenophenolate anions from 1,2-benzisoselenazoles via a variant of the Kemp elimination has been developed. 2-Cyano-substituted selenophenolate anions obtained by this methodology were engaged in nucleophilic substitution, aromatic nucleophilic substitution, and Pd-catalyzed cross-coupling reactions to give functionalized arylalkyl and diaryl selenides in moderate to excellent yields.

Construction of 5-Amino-1,2-Selenazole Scaffolds through N-Selenocyanation/Cyclization of Enaminones Using KSeCN

A metal-free and mild approach for constructing 5-amino-1,2-selenazole skeletons by NBS/KSeCN-mediated N-selenocyanation and nucleophilic cyclization of β-enaminones has been developed. Various isoselenazole compounds and the isoselenazolyl derivatives of anti-inflammatory medicines, including isosepac, oxaprozin, and ibuprofen, have been obtained with good yields. This efficient, "one-pot", and atomic economy strategy may represent an alternative route for the construction of a 1,2-selenazole framework via the "+SeCN" pathway and provide new access to heterocycles containing a Se-N bond.
