Synthesis of Benzoisoselenazolone Derivatives by Nickel-Catalyzed Dehydrogenative Direct Selenation of C(sp2)–H Bonds with Elemental Selenium in Air
2017
Nickel-catalyzed direct selenation of benzamides bearing an 8-quinolyl auxiliary with elemental selenium provides benzoisoselenazolones in good yield via carbon–selenium and nitrogen–selenium bond formation under aerobic conditions. In addition to aryl C–H bonds, the method can also be applied to alkenyl C–H bonds, constructing an isoselenazolone skeleton. Simple mechanistic analysis shows that the reaction proceeds through a rate-determining C–H bond cleavage. The obtained benzoisoselenazolones are transformed into various organoselenium compounds and utilized as the catalyst for bromolactonization of alkenoic acids.
