A calcium-mediated three-component selenylation of -difluoroalkenes using alcohols as nucleophiles and -(phenylseleno)phthalimide as the selenylation agent has been developed for the efficient synthesis of various α,α-difluoroalkyl-β-selenides. This selenylation reaction exhibits broad substrate and functional group tolerance, along with high levels of chemo- and regioselectivity. Additionally, the synthetic utility of the developed transformation in the late-stage functionalization of drug molecules was demonstrated.

A one-pot synthesis of linear and cyclic β-alkoxyselenides is developed through the iodine-mediated three-component reaction of elemental selenium with alkenes (dienes) and alcohols. Selenylation of 1,5-hexadiene gives 2,5-di(methoxymethyl)tetrahydroselenophene and 2-methoxy-6-(methoxymethyl)tetrahydro-2-selenopyran via the 5 and 6- cyclization. 1,7-Octadiene affords only linear 1:2 adduct with two terminal double bonds.

A simple and efficient method for the preparation of selenyl-substituted quinoline derivatives through a C-H selenylation of in situ-generated 3-acetyl quinoline has been developed. This protocol is easy to handle, scalable, and good functional group tolerant, providing a rapid method to 3-selenoacetyl quinoline and 3-diselenoacetyl quinoline derivatives.

Three novel and efficient protocols for the synthesis of phenyl aryl selenides through a three-component coupling reaction of triphenyltin chloride with aryl halides, phenolic esters or nitroarenes, and Se powder catalyzed by CuI or Cu(OAc) in the presence of a base in PEG200 at 90-100 °C have been developed. Also, NiFeO as a magnetically reusable nanocatalyst was applied in these reactions under similar reaction conditions. The present methods are superior to other currently available methods due to the use of triphenyltin chloride/Se as a phenylselenating agent and phenolic esters and nitroarenes as a coupling partner for C-Se-C bond formation for the first time, a green solvent and inexpensive and reusable catalysts, and avoidance of any toxic and expensive arylselenating reagents.

Herein, we report an efficient methodology for the synthesis of alkyl, benzyl, and phenyl selenoethers of aminopyrazoles and aminouracils by C(sp)-H functionalization in the presence of visible light and Rose Bengal as an organophotocatalyst. The reaction of amino pyrazole/iosothiazole/isoxazole or amino uracils with 0.5 equivalent of diphenyl/dibenzyl/diethyl diselenides in the presence of visible light in acetonitrile medium and a catalytic amount of Rose Bengal provided the corresponding phenyl, benzyl, or ethyl selenoethers in good to very good yields.
