Abstract

In the presence of trifluoroacetic acid, aldehydes and ketones react with tris (phenylse1eno) borane and with tris (methylse1eno) borane to give the corresponding bis (phenylse1eno)- and bis (methylseleno) acetals, respectively. Suitable reaction periods lie in the approximate range 20 min-24 h and generally about 12 mol%(based on the carbonyl compound) of TFA is required. The borane reagents are not suitable for tu $-unsaturated carbonyl ...
