Abstract

Abstract Oxidative elimination of α-pyridylseleno carbonyl compounds affords enones in excellent yields, providing an improved method for dehydrogenation of ketones and aldehydes. These results indicate that pyridylseleno group is a better leaving group than phenylseleno group in selenoxide elimination leading to enones.
