A Novel Reactivity of SeO2 with 1,3-Dienes:  Formation of syn 1,2- and 1,4-Diols via a Facile C−Se Bond Oxidation

A novel reaction between 1,3-dienes and selenium dioxide to give syn 1,2- and 1,4-diol cyclic selenites was studied in detail. This study indicates that an initial concerted [4 + 2] cycloaddition followed by a stereospecific carbon−selenium bond oxidation is involved in this unprecedented syn dihydr...

Zusammenfassung:A novel reaction between 1,3-dienes and selenium dioxide to give syn 1,2- and 1,4-diol cyclic selenites was studied in detail. This study indicates that an initial concerted [4 + 2] cycloaddition followed by a stereospecific carbon−selenium bond oxidation is involved in this unprecedented syn dihydroxy addition reaction mediated by selenium dioxide.
