Abstract
Lithium methyl selenide, easily prepared from powdered gray selenium and MeLi, reacts with unactivated aryl halides, in DMF, to afford the aryl methyl selenides as a result of a nucleophilic aromatic substitution. The aryl methyl selenides are rapidly dealkylated in the reaction medium by MeSeLi to give the aryl selenide anions. Addition of an alkyl halide or of cyanogen iodide gives rise to the formation of aryl alkyl selenides or aryl selenocyanates ...
