Aliphatic azides are a versatile class of compounds found in a variety of biologically active
pharmaceuticals. These compounds are also recognized as useful precursors for the …

Seleno-containing heterocycles exist widely in pharmaceutical molecules and the skeletons
of natural products. The addition of organoselenium to alkenes and alkynes via …

Three‐component reactions can directly convert three reactants into the desired products in
one pot and thus greatly shorten the synthetic path. Recently, transition‐metal catalysis has …

The design of organometallic catalysts is crucial in the development of catalytic reactions.
Herein, we describe a heterometallic [Os-Cu] complex with the characteristics of bimetallics …

Selenium, originally described as a toxin, turns out to be a crucial trace element for life that
appears as selenocysteine and its dimer, selenocystine. From the point of view of drug …

The use of additive-free conditions is an ideal approach to prepare organoselenium
reagents from readily available unsaturated substrates. Thus, we report the electro-induced …

A metal‐and oxidant‐free electrochemical method for preparing selenomethyl‐substituted
cyclic ethers or lactones via difunctionalization of olefines is presented. A series of …

Organoselenium chemistry has been established as a valuable research area in synthetic
and medicinal chemistry. After the discovery of the selenoxide elimination reaction in the …

A visible-light-enabled, iron-catalyzed three-component reaction for difunctionalization of
alkenes with amines and diselenides has been developed, wherein a photo-excitable Fe …

Organoselenium compounds have been successfully applied in biological, medicinal and
material sciences, as well as a powerful tool for modern organic synthesis, attracting the …
