Transition metal catalysis has dramatically changed the face of modern organic chemistry by
introducing a range of novel synthetic methods. A number of outstanding catalytic systems …

The versatility and utility of vinyl chalcogenides in organic synthesis is well documented
through the publication of a number of review articles1 and books. 2 The development of …

In the presence of transition metal catalysts, hydrothiolation and hydroselenation reactions,
as well as bisthiolation and bisselenation reactions, have been successfully carried out with …

In the present study, we investigated the in vitro effect of diphenyl ditelluride, diphenyl
diselenide and ebselen on Na+, K+-ATPase activity of rat brain. The results demonstrated …

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

Hexafluoroisopropanol (HFIP)-promoted disulfidation and diselenation of C–C unsaturated
bonds is reported. Reactions of unactivated alkyne, alkene, and allene, respectively, with …

Two new chiral selenated Schiff bases have been synthesized on condensation of a chiral
selenated amine,(R)-2-(benzylselanyl)-1-phenylethanamine with 3, 5-di-tert-butyl-2-hydroxy …

A novel and efficient copper-catalyzed decarboxylative alkynylselenation of indoles with Se
powder and propiolic acids has been developed. The outstanding advantages of this …

A new, simple, and metal-free route for the diselenation of maleimides has been first
developed employing (bis (trifluoroacetoxy) iodo) benzene (PIFA) at room temperature. The …

A transition‐metal‐free strategy using organic thiocyanate as a source of ArS or RS moiety
allowed a facile and efficient synthesis of bis (tris)‐vinyl sulfides and alkynyl thioethers under …
