Representative Procedure for the Synthesis of (E)-β-Phenylselenostyrene.
CuI (0.057 g, 0.3 mmol), l-proline (0.069 g, 0.6 mmol), Zn (0.098 g, 1.5 mmol) and dry [Bmim]BF4 (2.00 mL) were added to a 10-mL flask. The reaction mixture was stirred and dried by vacuum heating in an oil bath at 110 °C for 0.5 h. Diphenyl diselenide (0.234 g, 0.75 mmol) was added to the stirred mixture, and then (E)-(2-bromovinyl) benzene (0.035 g, 1.65 mmol, 1.1 equiv) was injected into the sealed flask. The reaction was carried out under a nitrogen atmosphere and monitored by TLC. After the reaction, the resulting mixture was cooled to r.t. and extracted with Et2O (3 × 5 mL). The extracts were combined and washed with H2O (2 × 10 mL), and dried over MgSO4. Evaporation of the solvent under reduced pressure gave a dark brown oil, which was further purified by column chromatography (PE), which gave a viscous oil (0.316 g, 83%).This procedure was followed for the synthesis of all products listed in Table
[2]
.
12 All products are known compounds except for (E)-β-tolyl-seleno-p-methylstyrene, (E)-β-propylseleno-p-methoxy-styrene, (E)-β-propylseleno-p-chlorostyrene and (E)-β-heptylselenostyrene.
