An efficient selenium‐catalyzed direct oxidation of benzylpyridines in aqueous DMSO has been successfully developed by using molecularoxygen as the oxidant. A variety of benzoylpyridines with broad functional group tolerance were obtained in modest to excellent yields and with exclusive chemoselectivity.
