A mild, practical, and simple procedure for phenyl selenoesters synthesis from several anhydrides diphenyl diselenide was developed. This transition-metal-free method provides a straightforward entry to storable Fmoc-amino acid which are effective chemoselective acylating reagents. An application oligopeptide illustrated.

An efficient and stereocontrolled synthesis of 2-substituted tetrahydrofurans has been achieved. The approach employs the asymmetric reduction γ-phenylseleno ketones obtained by three different procedures that are peculiarly applied to such compounds. Finally, intramolecular substitution phenylselenone residue oxygen atom a hydroxy group gives tetrahydrofuran ring.

A selenium-mediated strategy for the stereoselective synthesis of substituted tetrahydropyrans and isochromans has been developed starting from δ-phenylseleno ketones. After enantioselective reduction, chiral nonracemic phenylseleno alcohols were oxidized to corresponding selenones, which underwent an effcient 6-exo-tet ring-closure reaction.

The synthesis and photoelectrical properties of [2.2]paracyclophanes, containing conjugated acetylenic triple bonds in the linear side-chain, are described. These compounds were incorporated as an electroactive component within a conductive polymer, i.e. poly(3-butylthiophene). blend showed response higher than that neat polymer. Surprisingly, it was found application electric bias during preparation led to increase photocurrent.
