Abstract Selenium, originally described as a toxin, turns out to be crucial trace element for life that appears selenocysteine and its dimer, selenocystine. From the point of view drug developments, selenium‐containing drugs are isosteres sulfur oxygen with advantage presence selenium atom confers antioxidant properties high lipophilicity, which would increase cell membrane permeation leading better oral bioavailability. In this article, we have focused on relevant features atom, above all, corresponding synthetic approaches access variety organoselenium molecules along proposed reaction mechanisms. The preparation biological selenosugars, including selenoglycosides, selenonucleosides, selenopeptides, other compounds will treated. We attempted condense most important aspects interesting examples chemistry into single article.

Visible-Light-Promoted Selective Sulfonylation and Selenylation of Dienes to Access Sulfonyl-/Seleno-benzazepine Derivatives

Organic Letters, Год журнала: 2023, Номер 25(22), С. 4208 - 4213

Опубликована: Май 30, 2023

A novel visible-light-promoted selective sulfonylation and selenylation of dienes with selenosulfonates has been developed. This technology provides mild access to a wide range sulfonyl benzo[b]azepinones seleno-benzo[b]azepines. Preliminary mechanistic studies suggest that the involves radical engaged cascade process, is accomplished through sequential oxidation/electrophilic cyclization process. The large-scale operation late-stage modification experiment reveal promising utility this protocol.

Cascade Radical Trifluoromethylthiolation/Cyclization of Dienes To Access SCF₃-Containing Medium-Sized Heterocycles

Organic Letters, Год журнала: 2023, Номер 25(24), С. 4598 - 4602

Опубликована: Июнь 12, 2023

A novel radical cascade trifluoromethylthiolation/cyclization of dienes (N-alkyl-2-(1-phenylvinyl)aniline derivatives) with AgSCF3 has been developed. This approach provides simple and efficient access to a wide range SCF3-containing medium-sized rings (7/8/9-membered heterocycles). Preliminary mechanistic studies suggest that the reaction is realized through silver-assisted cyclization process. The large-scale experiment modification product reveal promising utility this protocol.

Photo- or Electrochemical Cyclization of Dienes with Diselenides to Access Seleno-Benzo[b]azepines

The Journal of Organic Chemistry, Год журнала: 2023, Номер 88(11), С. 7245 - 7255

Опубликована: Май 23, 2023

A cascade selenylation/cyclization of dienes with diselenides has been realized under visible-light irradiation or electrolysis conditions. Employing O2 electricity as a "green" oxidant, this protocol provides green and efficient method for an array biologically important seleno-benzo[b]azepine derivatives in moderate to good yields. The direct sunlight gram-scale reaction render the approach practical attractive.

Electrophotocatalysis Versus Indirect Electrolysis: Electrochemical Selenocyclization of 3‐Aza‐1,5‐dienes Facilitated by Energy Transfer, Direct Photolysis or N‐Hydroxyphthalimide

Chemistry - A European Journal, Год журнала: 2024, Номер 30(36)

Опубликована: Апрель 23, 2024

Three hybrid electrochemical protocols, which involve the energy transfer, direct photolysis and N-hydroxyphthalimide catalyst, respectively, are presented for selenylation/cyclization of fragile substrates 3-aza-1,5-dienes with diorganyl diselenides to afford 3-selenomethyl-4-pyrrolin-2-ones. The two electrophotocatalytic reactions indirect electrolysis one both regioselective external-oxidant- transition-metal-free, associated a broad substrate scope high Se-economy, all three methods amenable gram-scale syntheses, late-stage functionalizations, sunlight-induced experiments all-solar-driven syntheses.

N-Fluorobenzenesulfonimide-Mediated Intermolecular Carboselenenylation of Olefins with Aromatics and Diselenides

The Journal of Organic Chemistry, Год журнала: 2022, Номер 87(21), С. 14609 - 14622

Опубликована: Окт. 25, 2022

Intermolecular carboselenenylation of easily accessible alkenes by utilizing diselenides and N-fluorobenzenesulfonimide (NFSI) under metal-free mild conditions is reported. Preliminary mechanistic studies indicate that the oxidation diselenide NFSI through a single-electron-transfer process produces an active selenenyl cationic radical species initiates intermolecular olefins, forming key Se-C C-C bonds. Under optimized conditions, broad spectrum functionally structurally diverse selenoether derivatives with promising yields accessed very high functional group tolerance.
