Expeditious and Chemoselective Synthesis of α-Aryl and α-Alkyl Selenomethylketones via Homologation Chemistry.

Organic Letters 2018 May 5
Diselenoacetals, previously considered byproducts in homologation tactics en route to α-selenoketones, are herein found to be excellent starting materials for this purpose. The easy selenium/lithium exchange they undergo affords seleno carbanions which are smoothly added to Weinreb amides to chemoselectively prepare α-aryl- and α-alkyl seleno methylketones through a single chemical operation. No racemization events are observed in the presence of optically pure starting materials.
