After the study of different phenylselanyl group activators, halogenation by N-bromosuccinimide (NBS) has been shown to be the most suitable manner for cyclizing beta-phenylselanyl amines into aziridines and also enabled production of oxazolidin-2-ones from N-Boc beta-phenylselanyl amines in excellent yield.

The serotonin type 4 receptor (5-HTR)shows promise as a target for treating major depressive disorder (MDD). Studies have demonstrated that 5-HTR agonists have a faster antidepressant-like effect compared to conventional medications. Developing drugs that modulate this receptor could lead to faster and more effective MDD treatments.

A general methodology to access valuable 4-(phenylchalcogenyl)tetrazolo[1,5-]quinolines was developed by the reaction of 2-azidobenzaldehyde with phenylchalcogenylacetonitriles (sulfur and selenium) in the presence of potassium carbonate (20 mol%) as a catalyst. The reactions were conducted using a mixture of dimethylsulfoxide and water (7:3) as solvent at 80 °C for 4 h. This new methodology presents a good functional group tolerance to electron-deficient and electron-rich substituents, affording a total of twelve different 4-(phenylchalcogenyl)tetrazolo[1,5-]quinolines selectively in moderate to excellent yields.

Radical cyclization of alkynyl aryl ketones for the synthesis of 3-seleno-substituted thiochromones and chromones.

We report a strategy for the direct synthesis of 3-organylselanylthiochromones and 3-organylselanylchromones the radical cyclization reaction between alkynyl aryl ketones containing an -thiopropyl/methoxy group and diorganyl diselenides promoted by Oxone®. This method allows the construction and -functionalization of thiochromones and chromones using Oxone® as a stable and non-hazardous oxidizing agent in the presence of CHCN at 82 °C. These reactions tolerate a variety of substituents, and allowed the synthesis of twenty-one new 3-organylselanylthiochromones and selanylchromones in good to excellent yields (55-95%).
