Abstract

A simple one-pot synthesis of highly functionalized 1,2,4-diselenazolidines is described. Treatment of an acyl chloride with potassium selenocyanate in acetone gave an acyl isoselenocyanate and propane-2-selone, which both reacted with benzylamine or its derivatives to give the required products.
