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
A selenacalix[4]selenophene derivative, a cyclic selenophene oligomer linked with divalent selenium atoms, was successfully synthesized via a one-pot cyclization reaction using 2,5-dibromo-3,4-bis(4-t-butylphenyl)selenophene and (Bu3Sn)2Se. The X-ray analysis revealed an annular geometry consisting of two sets of vertical and horizontal selenophene pairs. The observed geometry was preserved by intermolecular Se···Se and Se···π interactions, leading to a one-dimensional array. This self-assembled network results in a supramolecular gel, despite the absence of any hydrogen bonding sites.

Abstract
Three anisole building blocks featuring bis(hydroxymethyl) or bis(bromomethyl) pendants have been analyzed with regard to their molecular structures and packing behaviour. The compounds are ethyl 3,5-bis(hydroxymethyl)-4-methoxybenzoate, C12H16O5, (I), [5-bromo-3-(hydroxymethyl)-2-methoxyphenyl]methanol [or 4-bromo-2,6-bis(hydroxymethyl)anisole], C9H11BrO3, (II), and 5-bromo-1,3-bis(bromomethyl)-2-methoxybenzene [or 4-bromo-2,6-bis(bromomethyl)anisole], C9H9Br3O, (III). A typical supramolecular pattern involved C—H...π interactions generating molecular stacks, while π–π interactions were only observed in the absence of bromine, indicating a striking influence on the distances between adjacent aromatic moieties. When comparing bis(hydroxymethyl) compound (II) with bis(bromomethyl) compound (III), we found that the strong O—H...O hydrogen bonds in a zigzag arrangement in the first are replaced by C—H...Br interactions in the second without a change in the general packing.
