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 …

In the recent decade, growing efforts have been devoted to employing elemental selenium
as a selenium source in organic synthesis. In contrast to unstable, smelly, and toxic previous …

A novel electrochemical radical selenylation of alkenes and activated arenes without
external oxidants is reported. The diselenide was fully transformed into Se-centered radicals …

A sustainable and transition metal-free approach for C3 chalcogenation and
chalcogenocyanation of imidazopyridines with KXCN (X= S or Se) has been developed …

The incorporation of the cyanato‐chalcogen group (OCN, SCN, and SeCN) has piqued the
interest of many researchers in the field of modern organic synthetic chemistry …

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

An efficient and highly selective approach for intermolecular arylthiocyanation/
arylselenocyanation of alkenes has been reported under mild conditions. Using diazonium …

A convenient procedure has been developed for the synthesis of styrenyl selenocyanates
and benzoselenophenes from readily available styrenyl bromides by reaction with …

An efficient NCS-promoted thiocyanation of pyrrolo [1, 2-a] quinoxalines with NH4SCN or
KSCN is described. A series of diverse 1-thiocyanatopyrrolo [1, 2-a] quinoxalines were …

Binary systems consisting of benzoyl peroxide (BPO) and diorganyl diselenide are effective
in the selective benzoyloxyselenation of internal alkynes to afford the corresponding β …
