Abstract

Alkyl phenyl selenones readily undergo substitution reactions, and are valuable precursors of epoxides on reaction with aldehydes in the presence of bases. ... While the reactivity of sulphones is well documented,' little is known about their selenium analogues, namely the sel- enones.2--5 We now report preliminary results concerning the exceptional reactivity of this quite unexplored functional group. We decided to take decyl phenyl selenone (1) as a model ...
