New Synthetic Method of Diorganyl Selenides: Palladium-Catalyzed Reaction of PhSeSnBu₃ with Aryl and Alkyl Halides

Abstract

Palladium complexes such as Pd(PPh3)4 catalyzed the reaction of phenyl tributylstannyl selenide (PhSeSnBu3) with aryl and alkyl halides, giving the corresponding diaryl and alkylaryl selenides in moderate to good yields
