We describe here our results on the use of choline chloride/urea 1:2 as a deep eutectic solvent (DES) in the synthesis of vinyl selenides. A good selectivity for the (E)-1,2-bis-organylseleno alkenes was observed starting from terminal alkynes and diaryl or dibutyl diselenides in the presence of NaBH4. The reaction of 1,3-butadiynes with diphenyl diselenide afforded exclusively the respective mono-selenylated (Z)-alkenynes. Diphenyl ditelluride reacted with phenylacetylene and 1,4-diphenyl-but-1-en-3-yne affording (Z)-phenyltelluro alkenes in good yields.

Abstract
We describe here our results on the use of choline chloride/urea 1:2 as a deep eutectic solvent (DES) in the synthesis of vinyl selenides. A good selectivity for the (E)-1,2-bis-organylseleno alkenes was observed starting from terminal alkynes and diaryl or dibutyl diselenides in the presence of NaBH4. The reaction of 1,3-butadiynes with diphenyl diselenide afforded exclusively the respective mono-selenylated (Z)-alkenynes. Diphenyl ditelluride reacted with phenylacetylene and 1,4-diphenyl-but-1-en-3-yne affording (Z)-phenyltelluro alkenes in good yields.File in questo prodotto:
