In the present review, we discuss recent progress in the field of C–Z bond formation
reactions (Z= S, Se, Te) catalyzed by transition metals. Two complementary methodologies …

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 …

Organoselenium chemistry has been established as a valuable research area in synthetic
and medicinal chemistry. After the discovery of the selenoxide elimination reaction in the …

A powerful and environmentally friendly electrochemical manganese-promoted free radical
selenylation reaction between boronic acids and diselenide reagents was established. This …

Diselenides are valuable reactants in organoselenium chemistry because Sesingle bondSe
bond can be easily converted into different reactive species, such as electrophiles (RSe+) …

A mild Cu-catalysed Chan–Lam protocol has been developed for the synthesis of
unsymmetrical aryl chalcogenides, including selenides and sulfides, in an aqueous micellar …

Recent research has focused on the heavy-atom effect in organic luminescent materials,
especially in multi-resonance thermally activated delayed fluorescence (MR-TADF) emitters …

A one-pot, metal-free procedure has been developed to synthesize unsymmetrical
organoselenides. In the first step of the reaction, arylation of potassium selenocyanate …

A synthetic method has been developed for the synthesis of unsymmetrical ferrocene aryl
chalcogenides by C–H activation of ferroceneamide using 8-aminoquinoline as a directing …

Organochalcogen compounds present synthetic and biological applications of extreme
relevance. The coupling reaction between boronic acids, borate anions or boronic esters …
