The interest in synthesizing heterocycles has always been enormous. The literature contains
a variety of synthetic approaches to the heterocycle ring structures, much of which has been …

Organoselenium compounds have found such wide utility because of their effects on an
extraordinary number of very different reactions, including many carbon-carbon bond …

Organoselenium chemistry has become an important tool in synthetic and medicinal
chemistry. Organoselenium reagents are more commonly known as electrophiles, but there …

In 1836 the first organoselenium compound, diethyl selenide, was prepared by Löwig, 1 and
it was isolated in the pure form in 1869. 2 Early selenium chemistry involved the synthesis of …

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 …

Organoselenium chemistry has proven to be a powerful tool for organic synthesis over
several decades. Nevertheless, the use of selenating reagents has often been limited by a …

Selenium‐based methods have developed rapidly over the past few years asnd
organoselenium chemistry has become a very useful tool in the hands of synthetic chemists …

A CuO nanopowder-catalyzed coupling reaction of aryl, alkyl, and heteroaryl iodides with
elemental selenium and tellurium takes place in the presence of KOH at 90° C in DMSO. A …

A selenium-containing amphiphilic block copolymer (PEG-PUSe-PEG) with a hydrophobic
polyselenide block and two hydrophilic poly (ethylene glycol)(PEG) blocks was synthesized …

Free radical mediated alkylation of alkenes is a challenging and largely unmet goal.
Disclosed here is a conceptually novel “polarity umpolung” strategy for radical alkylation of …
