Abstract

Diphenyl diselenide was found to be readily converted into benzeneselenenyl m- nitrobenzenesulfonate (PhSeOSO 2 C 6 H 4 NO 2-m) by treating with m- nitrobenzenesulfonyl peroxide. When the selenenyl sulfonate thus formed was allowed to react in situ with olefins, such as cyclohexene, 1-octene, or styrene, in the presence of various nucleophiles, the adducts of benzeneselenenyl group and a nucleophile were ...
