Abstract An efficient and operationally simple route to benzylseleno‐ and phenylselenoalkanoic acids from ethyl benzyl/phenylselenoalkanoates is described. This involves preparation of ethyl benzyl/phenylselenoalkanoates as substrates by reaction of dibenzyl/diphenyl diselenide and sodium borohydride with ethyl chloroalkanoates in ethanol followed by basic hydrolysis and subsequent acidification.
