Abstract

Recently we have reported in situ generation of electrophilic selenium (PhSe+) species via diphenyl diselenide radical cation (PhSeSePh)'+ formed by single electron transfer (SET) from PhSeSePh (1) to the excited singlet of 1, 4-dicyanonaphthalene (DCN, 2). l We report herein electron transfer (ET) from compounds possessing a carbonselenium bond to'DCN* leading to heterolytic C-Se bond dissociation via a radical cation intermediate with ...
