Isothiouronium salts are easilyaccessible and stable compounds. Herein, we report their use as versatile deoxasulfenylating agents enabling a stereoselective, thiol-free protocol for synthesis of thioethers from alcohols. The method is simple, scalable and tolerates a broad range of functional groups otherwise incompatible with other methods. Late-stage modification of several pharmaceuticals provides
Electrophilic cyclizations are one of the major strategies for cyclofunctionalizations of alkenes. Selective selenocyclizations can be performed by adjusting various factors in such reactions. The nature of the electrophile, the counterion, solvents, and external additives coordinating to the electrophilic species are used to control the course of such cyclizations with high degrees of efficiency.
