Abstract

Abstract Selenoboranes react with terminal α, β-di-and trisubstituted epoxides to produce β- hydroxylenides,(or olefins) in the two first cases and allyl alcohols in the last one. A very high stereodescrimination has been observed for α, β-disubstituted epoxides: the cis epoxide being much more reactive.
