Abstract
Abstract Morpholinophenylselenenamide 2 add to β-phenylselenoenamines 1a and yield β,β-bis(phenylseleno) enamines 4 . These compound undergo hydrolysis to form bis(phenylseleno) ethanal 5a . Also, 2 react with enolic aldehydes to give α-phenylselenoaldehydes 3 . This reaction allow a “one step” synthesis of cetoselenoacetals 5 of α-cetoaldehydes with good yields.
