Abstract

Thermal reaction of alkyl aryl selenoxides in the presence of water or methanol in the supercage of zeolite NaY gave β-hydroxy-or β-methoxyalkyl aryl selenides, respectively, and NaY played a novel role to stabilize reactive ArSeOH and to separate an anion of− OH from a carbonium ion which was simultaneously present with the− OH in a supercage.
