Arylselenylations of methylbenzenes, methoxybenzenes and thiophene were smoothly achieved with selenenium ions generated by comproportionation of 1:1 mixtures of p-toluenesulfonic acid salts of seleninic acids and the corresponding diselenides. A series of p-toluenesulfonic salts of seleninic acids were prepared by hydrogen peroxide oxidation of the corresponding diselenides in the presence of p-toluenesulfonic acid. Novel 2-(organylseleno)thiophenes were obtained by heating the protonated seleninic acids with a 50-fold excess of thiophene in glacial acetic acid. (C) 2011 Published by Elsevier Ltd.

An extensive library of 77Se chemical shifts have been generated from the NMR measurements on substituted (phenylseleno)benzenes, including 33 new compounds. The variation in chemical shifts cover 265 ppm ranging from 446 to 181 ppm.
Crystal structures have been determined for nine selected representatives of the substituted (phenylseleno)benzenes. The analysis of the crystal structures supported that through-space interactions between selenium and the ortho-substituent observed in the crystal structures also are likely to be present in solution.
The variation in the 77Se NMR chemical shifts can be rationalised from the intramolecular interactions with the substituent in the ortho-position. Furthermore it appears that these ortho-effects are roughly additive, and that it is the actual interactions and not the resulting conformational constraints that are responsible for the variations in the 77Se NMR chemical shifts.
