Synthesis of Selenium-Substituted Pyrroles and Pyrazol-3-ones
Publication History
Publication Date:
02 April 2009 (online)
Abstract
An approach to the synthesis of 4-(phenylseleno)pyrroles, 4-(phenylseleno)pyrazol-3-ones, and 4-(1,3-benzoselenazol-2-ylthio)pyrazol-3-ones is described. Their formation passes through hydrazonic intermediates obtained by the reaction between 1,2-diaza-1,3-butadienes and 1-(phenylseleno)ketones, phenylselenol, or 2-mercaptobenzoselenazole, respectively.

Synthesis of the α-Seleno Ketones 2a,bCompound 2a Phenyl selenyl chloride (5.0 mmol) was added at r.t. to acetone (4 mL), and the solution was stirred for 30 min. The reaction mixture was poured into H2O and extracted with CH2Cl2. The organic layer was dried over Na2SO4, filtered, and evaporated under vacuum. The crude product 2a (89% yield) was used without further purification.
Compound 2b The phenylselenyl sulfate was generated from (PhSe)2 (1.7 mmol) and (NH4)2S2O8 (2.3 mmol) in MeCN (20 mL) at 80 ˚C. After 30 min the 1-phenylethanone (1.7 mmol) was added. The mixture was stirred overnight at the same temperature, then was poured into an aq solution of NaHCO3 and extracted with CH2Cl2. The organic layer was dried over Na2SO4, filtered, and evaporated under vacuum. The residue was purified by flash chromatography (elution mixture: PE-CH2Cl2 = 85:15) to yield 2b in 40% yield. -
