Convenient synthesis of primary selenoamides from aryl nitriles, selenium and sodium borohydride
Zhao,Ruan,Fan,Zhou
, p. 1761 - 1765 (1994)
Aryl nitriles react smoothly with sodium hydrogen selenide, itself prepared in situ from selenium and sodium borohydride, in ethanol to give the corresponding primary selenoamides in moderate to good yield.
Synthesis of primary arylselenoamides by reaction of aryl nitriles with Woollins' reagent
Hua, Guoxiong,Li, Yang,Slawin, Alexandra M. Z.,Woollins, J. Derek
, p. 5251 - 5254 (2007/10/03)
The reaction of aryl nitriles with Woollins' reagent followed by water affords a variety of primary arylselenoamides In 60-100% yield. The first crystal structures of two primary selenoamides are reported.
