Abstract

SHS investigation development is considered from the geographical and historical viewpoint. 3 stages are described. Within Stage 1 the work was carried out in the Department of the Institute of Chemical Physics in Chernogolovka where the scientific discovery had been made. At Stage 2 the interest to SHS arose in different cities and towns of the former USSR. Within Stage 3 SHS entered the international scene. Now SHS processes and products are being studied in more than 50 countries.

Abstract

Nucleophilic selenium compounds are useful for a number of functional group transformations. The aim of this chapter is to present the various aspects of the preparation and the synthetic utility of the most recently used nucleophilic selenium reagents now available to academic and industrial chemists.

Keywords:

Nucleophilic substitution, selenolates, selenols, selenides, stereoselectivity, vinyl selenides, selenoesters, ring opening reactions, ring closing reactions, solvent-free.
