Abstract

The first examples (18 and 19) of 1,4-selenathiafulvenes are described. These compounds were prepared by a Wittig-type synthesis from the appropriate aldehydes and 1,3-selenathiolyl phosphonium salts (9 and 11) in methanol, using KOH as the base. The same reaction conditions also afforded a number of 1,4-dithiafulvenes, the Wittig synthesis of which has previously been achieved only under aprotic conditions.
