The reaction of N,N’-persubstituted selenoacrylamides with alkyl bromoacetates gives rise to the formation of alkyl derivatives of N,N-disubstituted 2-aminoselenophene-5-carboxylates which can be transformed by saponification into corresponding 5-carboxylic acids. These compounds decompose by heating under formation of hitherto unknown N,N-disubstituted 2-amino-5H-selenophenes their spectral and chemical properties were outlined.
