Abstract

Peracetic acid promoted C–Se coupling reaction of arenes with diselenides under metal-free and solvent-free conditions has been described. The resulting selenide ethers were obtained in good to excellent yields. Peracetic acid provided the selenide ethers via sp² C–H selenation whereas previously in case of DTBP sp³ C–H selenation was observed.

Key words

peracetic acid - arenes - diselenides - C–Se coupling - selenide ethers

21 General Procedure for a Representative Example: Mesityl(phenyl)selane (3a) A Schlenk tube equipped with a magnetic stir bar was charged with diphenyl diselenide (0.5 mmol, 0.157 g), mesitylene (1.0 mL), and AcOOH (1.0 mmol), then heated at 120 °C in an oil bath under N₂ atmosphere. After stirring at this temperature for 24 h, the reaction mixture was cooled to r.t. and diluted with EtOAc (20 mL). The resulting solution was directly filtered through a pad of Celite then washed with EtOAc (20 mL) and concentrated to give the crude material which was then purified by column chromatography (SiO₂, hexane) to provide 3a as a yellow oil (248 mg, 94% yield). ¹H NMR (400 MHz, CDCl₃): δ = 2.30 (s, 3 H), 2.43 (s, 6 H), 6.99 (s, 2 H), 7.06–7.13 (m, 5 H) ppm. ¹³C NMR (100 MHz, CDCl₃): δ = 21.0, 24.2, 125.3, 128.4, 128.8, 128.9, 129.1, 133.4, 139.0, 143.6 ppm. ⁷⁷Se NMR (114.45 MHz, CDCl₃): δ = 286.3 ppm. HRMS (EI): m/z calcd for C₁₅H₁₆Se: 276.0417; found: 276.0407.
