Di [(1 R)-2-Oximo-endo-3-bornyl] diselenide (4) and its benzoate derivative 5 were prepared
from the corresponding known 2-keto diselenide 1. Treatment of 4 and 5 with bromine …

A series of novel 3-camphor-based diselenides, differing in substitution at C-2, was
prepared. The corresponding allyl selenides were used as protecting groups for the …

Replacement of the 2-keto group of readily available di (endo-3-camphoryl) diselenide with
oxime or O-benzoyloxime substituents, followed by conversion into the corresponding …

Electrophilic selenium compounds have proven of considerable utility in a variety of organic
transformations. 1 Asymmetric variations of such processes are made possible by employing …

The synthesis of a diaryl diselenide that contains 2, 6‐dicarboxylic acid groups, 2, 2′‐
diselanediylbis (5‐tert‐butylisophthalic acid)(10), is described. Diselenide 10 undergoes …

New chiral sulfoxide‐containing diselenides were prepared and their corresponding
selenium electrophiles were used for the stereoselective functionalization of alkenes. The …

We recently reported the synthesis of a new chiral C2 symmetrical organoselenium reagent,
1a, and showed its usefulness in the asymmetric selenomethoxylation of olefins1a and in …

After activation with electrophilic selenenylating agents, the phenylseleno group of vicinal
azido selenides, containing internal oxygen or nitrogen nucleophilic substituents, readily …

(1R)-2-endo-(Dimethylamino) methyl-2-exo-methoxy-3-endo-camphor-ylselenenyl bromide
and its 2-endo-(pyrrolidenyl) methyl analogue were prepared from (1R)-2-endo …

A simple synthesis of two new nitrogen containing diselenides, 7 and 8, is described. These
compounds were employed as starting materials to effect the asymmetric …
