Abstract

Summary. The procedure employs phenylselenyl chloride or bromide, pent-4-en-1-ol, and additives, like pyridine and silver (I) salts, to generate the cyclic ether of tetrahydrofuran type in high yields. A catalytic amount of additive leads to higher yields, but equimolar amounts achieved almost quantitative yields under extremely mild experimental conditions. The effect of the halide ion of the selenylating reagent is not significant.
