Abstract

After activation with electrophilic selenenylating agents, the phenylseleno group of vicinal azido selenides, containing internal oxygen or nitrogen nucleophilic substituents, readily undergoes intramolecular nucleophilic displacement to afford azido-substituted heterocyclic compounds. This intramolecular substitution occurs with inversion of configuration at the carbon atom bearing the selenium atom. Starting from acetamido selenides and ...
