Abstract
The chemical reduction within a family of organic selenocyanates, as masked selenols, using reducing agents, such as Rongalite, sodium dithionite, and sodium thiosulfate is investigated. Using Rongalite, the corresponding diselenides were obtained quantitatively and selectively in very good to excellent yields (51-100 %) starting from alkyl, aryl, and benzyl selenocyanates. The scope of the reaction is unaffected by the electronic nature of the substituents. Furthermore, the reducing agent, Rongalite, is compatible with hydrolysable and reducing-sensitive functional groups. Additionally, a simple methodology employing the in-situ generated benzyl selenolate anion (PhCH2Se-) to promote aliphatic nucleophilic substitution, epoxide ring opening, and Michael addition reactions has been developed; thus, extending the structural diversity of the synthesized selenium derivatives.

Abstract
Intracellular RNA imaging with organic small molecular probes has been an intense topic, although the number of such reported dyes, particularly dyes with high quantum yields and long wavelength excitation/emission, is quite limited. The present work reports the design and synthesis of three cationic julolidine-azolium conjugates (OX-JLD, BTZ-JLD and SEZ-JLD) as turn-on fluorescent probes with appreciably high quantum yields and brightness upon interaction with RNA. A structure-efficiency relationship has been established for their potential for the interaction and imaging of intracellular RNA. Given their chemical structure, the free rotation between the donor and the acceptor gets restricted when the probes bind with RNA resulting in strong fluorescence emission towards a higher wavelength upon photoexcitation. A detailed investigation revealed that the photophysical properties and the optical responses of two probes, viz. BTZ-JLD and SEZ-JLD, towards RNA are very promising and qualify them to be suitable candidates for biological studies, particularly for cellular imaging applications. The probes allow imaging of intracellular RNA with prominent staining of nucleoli in live cells under a range of physiological conditions. The results of the cellular digest test established the appreciable RNA selectivity of BTZ-JLD and SEZ-JLD inside the cellular environment. Moreover, a comparison between the relative intensity profile of SEZ-JLD before and after the RNA-digestion test inside the cellular environment indicated that the interference of cellular viscosity in fluorescence enhancement is insignificant, and hence, SEZ-JLD can be used as a cell membrane permeable cationic molecular probe for deep-red imaging of intracellular RNA with a good degree of selectivity.

Abstract
Selenium, originally described as a toxin, turns out to be a crucial trace element for life that appears as selenocysteine and its dimer, selenocystine. From the point of view of drug developments, selenium-containing drugs are isosteres of sulfur and oxygen with the advantage that the presence of the selenium atom confers antioxidant properties and high lipophilicity, which would increase cell membrane permeation leading to better oral bioavailability. In this article, we have focused on the relevant features of the selenium atom, above all, the corresponding synthetic approaches to access a variety of organoselenium molecules along with the proposed reaction mechanisms. The preparation and biological properties of selenosugars, including selenoglycosides, selenonucleosides, selenopeptides, and other selenium-containing compounds will be treated. We have attempted to condense the most important aspects and interesting examples of the chemistry of selenium into a single article.

Abstract
The importance of organoselenium compounds has been increasing in synthetic chemistry. These reagents are well-known as electrophiles and nucleophiles in many organic transformations, and in recent years, their functionality as catalysts has also been largely explored. The interest in organoselenium-based catalysts is due to their high efficacy, mild reaction conditions, strong functional compatibility, and great selectivity. Allied to organoselenium catalysts, the use of inorganic and organic oxidants that act by regenerating the catalytic species for the reaction pathway is common. Here, we provide a comprehensive review of the last five years of organic transformations promoted by diorganyl diselenide as a selenium-based catalyst. This report is divided into four sections: (1) cyclisation reactions, (2) addition reactions and oxidative functionalisation, (3) oxidation and reduction reactions, and (4) reactions involving phosphorus-containing starting materials.

Abstract
A practical method to synthesize sulfinate esters from aryl iodides is disclosed. Direct oxidation of thioesters prepared by copper-catalyzed C-S formation of aryl iodides realized the efficient synthesis of sulfinate esters. Due to the good accessibility of aryl iodides, a wide variety of sulfinate esters were prepared from easily available starting materials such as carboxylic acids and anilines.

Abstract
Copper-catalyzed direct selenation of substituted 2-bromo-N-phenylbenzamide substrates with elemental selenium powder provided a series of methoxy-substituted isoselenazolones via the C-Se and Se-N bond formations. Phenolic substituted isoselenazolones have been obtained by O-demethylation of the corresponding methoxy-substituted analogues using boron tribromide. Some isoselenazolones have been structurally characterized by X-ray single-crystal analysis. The glutathione peroxidase (GPx)-like antioxidant activity of isoselenazolones has been evaluated both in thiophenol and coupled-reductase assays. All isoselenazolones showed good GPx-like activities in the coupled-reductase assay. The ferric-reducing antioxidant power of phenolic antioxidants has also been evaluated. The best phenolic antioxidants were found to be good ferric-reducing antioxidant power agents. The single electron transfer, hydrogen atom transfer, and proton-coupled electron transfer mechanisms for the antioxidant properties of all catalysts have been supported by density functional theory calculations. The catalytic cycle was proposed for one of the phenolic isoselenazolones involving diselenide, selenenyl sulfide, selenol, and selenenic acid as intermediates using 77Se{1H} NMR spectroscopy.

Abstract
Bis(3-amino-1-hydroxybenzyl)diselenide containing two ortho groups was synthesized from 7-nitro-3H-2,1-benzoxaselenole and in situ generated sodium benzene tellurolate (PhTeNa). One-pot synthesis of 1,3-benzoselenazoles was achieved from bis(3-amino-1-hydroxybenzyl)diselenide and aryl aldehydes using acetic acid as a catalyst. The X-ray crystal structure of chloro-substituted benzoselenazole revealed a planar structure with T-shaped geometry around the Se atom. Both natural bond orbital and atoms in molecules calculations confirmed the presence of secondary Se···H interactions in bis(3-amino-1-hydroxybenzyl)diselenide and Se···O interactions in benzoselenazoles, respectively. The glutathione peroxidase (GPx)-like antioxidant activities of all compounds were evaluated using a thiophenol assay. Bis(3-amino-1-hydroxybenzyl)diselenide and benzoselenazoles showed better GPx-like activity compared to that of the diphenyl diselenide and ebselen, used as references, respectively. Based on 77Se{1H} NMR spectroscopy, a catalytic cycle for bis(3-amino-1-hydroxybenzyl)diselenide using thiophenol and hydrogen peroxide was proposed involving selenol, selenosulfide, and selenenic acid as intermediates. The potency of all GPx mimics was confirmed by their in vitro antibacterial properties against the biofilm formation of Bacillus subtilis and Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Additionally, molecular docking studies were used to evaluate the in silico interactions between the active sites of the TsaA and LasR-based proteins found in Bacillus subtilis and Pseudomonas aeruginosa.

Abstract
Chalcogen-bonding interactions have recently gained considerable attention in the field of synthetic chemistry, structure, and bonding. Here, three organo-spiroselenuranes, having a Se(IV) center with a strong intramolecular Se···N chalcogen-bonded interaction, have been isolated by the oxidation of the respective bis(2-benzamide) selenides derived from an 8-aminoquinoline ligand. Further, the synthesized spiroselenuranes, when assayed for their antioxidant activity, show disproportionation of hydrogen peroxide into H2O and O2 with first-order kinetics with respect to H2O2 for the first time by any organoselenium molecules as monitored by 1H NMR spectroscopy. Electron-donating 5-methylthio-benzamide ring-substituted spiroselenurane disproportionates hydrogen peroxide at a high rate of 15.6 ± 0.4 × 103 μM min-1 with a rate constant of 8.57 ± 0.50 × 10-3 s-1, whereas 5-methoxy and unsubstituted-benzamide spiroselenuranes catalyzed the disproportionation of H2O2 at rates of 7.9 ± 0.3 × 103 and 2.9 ± 0.3 × 103 μM min-1 with rate constants of 1.16 ± 0.02 × 10-3 and 0.325 ± 0.025 × 10-3 s-1, respectively. The evolved oxygen gas from the spiroselenurane-catalyzed disproportion of H2O2 has also been confirmed by a gas chromatograph-thermal conductivity detector (GCTCD) and a portable digital polarographic dissolved O2 probe. Additionally, the synthesized spiroselenuranes exhibit thiol peroxidase antioxidant activities for the reduction of H2O2 by a benzenethiol co-reductant monitored by UV-visible spectroscopy. Next, the Se···N bonded spiroselenuranes have been explored as catalysts in synthetic oxidation iodolactonization and bromination of arenes. The synthesized spiroselenurane has activated I2 toward the iodolactonization of alkenoic acids under base-free conditions. Similarly, efficient chemo- and regioselective monobromination of various arenes with NBS catalyzed by chalcogen-bonded synthesized spiroselenuranes has been achieved. Mechanistic insight into the spiroselenuranes in oxidation reactions has been gained by 77Se NMR, mass spectrometry, UV-visible spectroscopy, single-crystal X-ray structure, and theoretical (DFT, NBO, and AIM) studies. It seems that the highly electrophilic nature of the selenium center is attributed to the presence of an intramolecular Se···N interaction and a vacant coordination site in spiroselenuranes is crucial for the activation of H2O2, I2, and NBS. The reaction of H2O2, I2, and NBS with tetravalent spiroselenurane would lead to an octahedral-Se(VI) intermediate, which is reduced back to Se(IV) due to thermodynamic instability of selenium in its highest oxidation state and the presence of a strong intramolecular N-donor atom.

Abstract
The development of alternative energy sources is the utmost priority of developing society. Unlike many prior homogeneous electrocatalysts that rely on a change in the oxidation state of the metal center and/or electrochemically active ligand, here we report the synthesis and structural characterization of a bimetallic zinc selenolate complex consisting of a redox silent zinc metal ion and a tridentate ligand that catalyzes the reduction of protons into hydrogen gas electrochemically and displays one of the highest reported TOF for a homogeneous TM-metal free ligand centered HER catalyst, 509 s-1. The current-voltage analysis confirms the onset overpotential of 0.86 V vs. Ag/AgCl for the HER process. Constant potential electrolysis (CPE) has been carried out to study the bulk electrolysis of our developed protocol, which reveals that the bimetallic zinc selenolate catalyst is stable under cathodic as well as anodic potentials and generates hydrogen gas with a faradaic efficiency of 75%. Preliminary studies on the heterogeneous catalyst were conducted by depositing the bimetallic zinc selenolate catalyst on the electrode surface.

Abstract
To date, organoseleniums are pre-eminent for peroxide decomposition and radical quenching antioxidant activities. On the contrary, here, a series of Janus-faced aminophenolic diselenides have been prepared from substituted 2-iodoaniline and selenium powder using copper-catalyzed methodology. Subsequently, condensation with substituted salicylaldehyde afforded the Schiff base, which on reduction, yielded the desired substituted aminophenolic diselenides in 72%-88% yields. The generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) from oxygen gas by the synthesized aminophenolic diselenides was studied by analyzing the oxidation of dichlorofluorescein diacetate (DCFDA) dye and para-nitro-thiophenol by fluorescence and UV-Visible spectroscopic methods. Furthermore, density functional theory calculations and crystal structure analysis revealed the role of functional amine and hydroxyl sites present in the Janus-faced organoselenium catalyst for the activation of molecular oxygen, where NH and phenolic groups bring the oxygen molecule close to the catalyst by N-H⋯O and O-H⋯O intermolecular interactions. Additionally, these functionalities stabilize the selenium-centered radical in the formed transition states. Antioxidant activities of the synthesized diselenides have been explored as the catalyst for the decomposition of hydrogen peroxide using benzenethiol sacrificial co-reductant by a well-established thiol assay. Radical quenching antioxidant activity was studied by the quenching of DPPH radicals at 516 nm by UV-Visible spectroscopy. The structure activity correlation suggests that the electron-rich phenol and electron-rich and sterically hindered selenium center enhance the oxidizing property of the aminophenolic diselenides. Janus-faced diselenides were also evaluated for their cytotoxic effect on HeLa cancer cells via MTT assay, which suggests that the compounds are effective at 15-18 μM concentration against cancer cells. Moreover, the combination with therapeutic anticancer drugs Erlotinib and Doxorubicin showed promising cytotoxicity at the nanomolar concentration (8-28 nM), which is sufficient to suppress the growth of the cancer cells.

Abstract
The solvent-switched hydroxylation and oxygenation of α-difluoro(thio)methylated carbanions with molecular oxygen under mild conditions are reported. This strategy tames the redox reactions of the in situ generated hydroperoxy difluoromethylsulfides, in which solvent-bonding can alter their reactivity and switch the oxidation selectivities. These controllable three-component reactions of gem-difluoroalkenes, thiols and molecular oxygen afford various useful α-difluoro(thio)methylated alcohols and ketones in high yields. Significantly, this protocol has been applied in the synthesis different bioactive molecules. Mechanism studies enable the detection of the hydroperoxy difluoromethylsulfide intermediates and exclude the thiol-based radical pathway.

Abstract
Organic selenides are famous for their coordination and catalytic functions in the organic phase, albeit challenging for aqueous medium. Herein, the combination of a hydrophilic body of crown ether and substitution of one oxygen atom with a selenium one provides a new type of design route for organic selenide entities with charming functions in aqueous solution. The selenacrown ether C9Se presented here intrinsically shows an amphiphile-like property. Its nanosphere structure in water readily expands the catalysis of organic selenide to aqueous substrates in thiol/disulfide conversion.

Abstract
We report here our results on the application of ynamides as substrates in the reactions with diorganyl dichalcogenides and iron(III) chloride to give selectively three different types of compounds: E-α-chloro-β-(organoselenyl)enamides, 4-(organochalcogenyl)oxazolones, and vinyl tosylates. The results reveal that the selectivity in the formation of products was obtained by controlling the functional groups directly bonded to the nitrogen atom of the ynamides. Thus, α-chloro-β-(organoselenyl) enamide derivatives were exclusively obtained when the TsN- and MsN-ynamides were treated with a mixture of diorganyl diselenides (1.0 equiv) and FeCl3 (3.0 equiv) in dichloroethane (DCE, 3 mL), at room temperature. The 4-(organochalcogenyl)oxazolones were selectively obtained with ynamides having an ester group, directly bonded to the nitrogen atom, upon treatment with a solution of FeCl3 (1.5 equiv) and diorganyl dichalcogenides (1.0 equiv) in dichloromethane (3 mL) at room temperature. Finally, vinyl tosylates were obtained from ynamides having an ester group, directly bonded to the nitrogen atom, by reaction with p-toluenesulfonic acid. We also studied the application of the prepared compounds as substrates for Suzuki and Sonogashira cross-coupling reactions.

Abstract
Significance: Selenenyl sulfides (RSeSRs) and thioseleninic acids (RSeSHs) are the monoselenium (Se) analogs of disulfides and persulfides that contain Se-S bonds. These bonds are found in several antioxidant-regenerating enzymes as derivatives of selenocysteine, making them an important player in redox biology as it pertains to sulfur redox regulation. Recent Advances: Mechanistic studies of redox-regulating selenoenzymes such as thioredoxin reductase and glutathione peroxidase suggest crucial Se-S bonds in the active sites. Peptide models and small-molecule mimics of these active sites have been prepared to study their fundamental chemistry. These advances help pave the road to better understand the functions of the Se-S bond in the body. Critical Issues: The Se-S bond is unstable at atmospheric temperatures and pressures. Therefore, studying their properties proposes a major challenge. Currently, there are no trapping reagents specific to RSeSRs or RSeSHs, making their presence, identity, and fates in biological environments difficult to track. Future Directions: Further understanding of the fundamental chemistry/biochemistry of RSeSRs and RSeSHs is needed to understand what their intracellular targets are and to what extent they impact signaling. Besides antioxidant regeneration and peroxide radical reduction, the roles of RSeSR and RSeSHs in other systems need to be further explored.

Abstract
The hydrolysis of carbonyl sulfide (COS) to form H2S by carbonic anhydrase has been demonstrated to be a viable strategy to deliver H2S in a biological system. Herein, we describe N-dithiasuccinoyl amines as thiol-triggered COS/H2S donors. Notably, thiol species especially GSH and homocysteine can trigger the release of both COS and H2S directly from several specific analogues via an unexpected mechanism. Importantly, two representative analogues Dts-1 and Dts-5 show intracellular H2S release, and Dts-1 imparts potent anti-inflammatory effects in LPS-challenged microglia cells. In conclusion, N-dithiasuccinoyl amine could serve as promising COS/H2S donors for either H2S biological studies or H2S-based therapeutics development.
