Abstract

In this work, a visible-light-driven synthesis of alkynyl selenides using [BMIm]BF4 as an environmentally friendly solvent and without the addition of metal catalysts, photosensitizers, directing-groups, or bases is reported. The target compounds were obtained in moderate to good yields with good functional group tolerance by the reaction of diorganoyldiselenides with 1-bromoalkynes proceeding through a radical mechanism.
