Copper-Catalyzed Bis- or Trifunctionalization of Alkynyl Carboxylic Acids: An Efficient Route to Bis- and Tris-selenide Alkenes

A highly efficient copper-catalyzed protocol for the synthesis of bis- and tris-selenide alkenes from alkynyl carboxylic acids and diselenides has been developed. The reaction of alkynyl carboxylic acids and diselenides in the presence of CuI/Cs2CO3/toluene under white light LEDs only gave bis-selen...

Summary:A highly efficient copper-catalyzed protocol for the synthesis of bis- and tris-selenide alkenes from alkynyl carboxylic acids and diselenides has been developed. The reaction of alkynyl carboxylic acids and diselenides in the presence of CuI/Cs2CO3/toluene under white light LEDs only gave bis-selenide alkenes, whereas tris-selenide alkenes were obtained in the presence of a CuI/Cs2CO3/NMP system. This method provides a rapid access to bis-and tris-selenide alkenes derivatives.
