Abstract

Abstract We report a) a modified synthesis of diketo selenides, b) preparation of 2,5-diacylselenophenes by condensation of diketo selenides with glyoxal, c) preparation of poly-substituted selenophenes by intramolecular reductive coupling reaction of diketo selenides with low-valent titanium reagent under controlled conditions (0°C) followed by dehyration of the resulting 3,4-dihydroxyselenolanes, and d) formation of 2,5-dihydroselenophenes and 1,3-dienes by treatment of diketo selenides with the low-valent titanium reagent in refluxing tetrahydrofuran.
