Synthesis of selenol esters from diorganyl diselenides and acyl chlorides under solvent-free conditions and microwave irradiation

摘要

Herein, we report an efficient, quick and eco-friendly new method for the synthesis of a variety of selenol esters. This novel solvent-free methodology gave good to excellent isolated yields of desired products after just 2 min under microwave irradiation. Furthermore, by using the same green approach, we were also able to synthesize selenocarbonates bearing interesting functionalities.
