Journal ArticleDOI
Eco‐Friendly Olefin Dihydroxylation Catalyzed by Diphenyl Diselenide
TL;DR: In this article, the first general and efficient diphenyl diselenide-catalyzed dihydroxylation of double bonds was presented, where hydrogen peroxide was used as the oxidizing agent.
Journal ArticleDOI
Preparation of a new chiral non-racemic sulfur-containing diselenide and applications in asymmetric synthesis.

TL;DR: The synthesis of the new chiral non-racemic sulfur-containing diselenide, di-2-methoxy-6-[(1S)-1-(methylthio)ethyl]phenyl diselENide, is described, which acts as a strong electrophilic reagent and adds to alkenes to afford the products of selenomethoxylation or selenohydroxylation, respectively, with excellent diastereoselectivities.
Journal ArticleDOI
Organocatalytic Asymmetric α‐Selenenylation of Aldehydes

Journal ArticleDOI
Ring-closure reactions initiated by the peroxydisulfate ion oxidation of diphenyl diselenide
TL;DR: In this paper, it was shown that the oxidation of diphenyl diselenide with ammonium peroxydisulfate represents a very simple method of generating phenylselenium cations in the absence of nucleophile counterions.
Journal ArticleDOI
Preparation of the First Bench‐Stable Phenyl Selenolate: an Interesting “On Water” Nucleophilic Reagent
TL;DR: The first solid and air-stable selenolates, starting from commercially available phenylselenenyl halides and elemental zinc, were reported in this article, which were efficiently employed in the ring opening of epoxides as well as in other nucleophilic substitution and addition reactions.
