Organic halides of different structural types react with diphenyl diselenide and zinc dust in aqueous medium to give alkyl phenyl selenides. Benzylic and allylic bromides, α-bromoesters, acids and ketones and some primary alkyl iodides produce high yields even under acidic conditions. Less reactive halides need basic medium. The reaction proceeds equally well in the presence of various unprotected functional groups. Control experiments support a SH2 mechanism via alkyl radicals.
Allylic Selenides in Organic Synthesis: New Methods for the Synthesis of Allylic Amines

Oxidative rearrangement of allylic selenides in the presence of various amine nucleophiles provides synthetic access to a variety of allylic amine derivatives.The stereochemical outcome of these reactions has been investigated, and is consistent with a -sigmatropic rearrangement mechanism.Several D-α-amino acids and racemic β,γ-unsaturated α-amino acids were prepared in this manner.A variant of this process employing an achiral allylic selenide and chiral amide afforded protected allylic amines in low diastereoisomeric excess.
