Abstract

Abstract: p-Selenium and p-tellurium carbonyl compounds have been prepared in good yield by reaction of diaryldiselenides or diarylditelluride with a$- unsaturated carbonyl compounds induced by TiC1, f Sm /THF system under mild reaction conditions. ... Organoselenium and organotellurium compounds have attracted considerable ... Diaryldiselenides and diarylditellurides are important intermediates due to their ...
