In 2018,Tanini, Damiano; Tiberi, Caterina; Gellini, Cristina; Salvi, Pier Remigio; Capperucci, Antonella published 《A Straightforward Access to Stable β-Functionalized Alkyl Selenols》.Advanced Synthesis & Catalysis published the findings.Recommanded Product: 3395-91-3 The information in the text is summarized as follows:
Treatment of epoxides with bis(trimethylsilyl)-selenide under strictly controlled conditions allowed to isolate β-hydroxy selenols which evidence an unexpected stability, taking into account their known propensity to afford diselenides. Also thiiranes and aziridines lead to functionalized selenols bearing a thiol and a N-Ts- or N-Boc-protected amino moiety on β-position. These selenols were stable enough to react with different electrophiles. Ab-initio DF calculations on two suitable model systems, Pr selenol and β-hydroxy derivative, allow to ascribe the observed low tendency to oxidation to noncovalent interactions between the selenol moiety and the -OH group.Methyl 3-bromopropanoate(cas: 3395-91-3Recommanded Product: 3395-91-3) was used in this study.
Methyl 3-bromopropanoate(cas: 3395-91-3) belongs to bromides. Most organobromine compounds, like most organohalide compounds, are relatively nonpolar. Bromine is more electronegative than carbon (2.9 vs 2.5). Consequently, the carbon in a carbon–bromine bond is electrophilic, i.e. alkyl bromides are alkylating agents.Recommanded Product: 3395-91-3
