The Reaction of Acetic Acid 2-Selenoxo-2H-pyridin-1-yl Esters with Benzynes: A Convenient Route to Benzo[b]seleno[2,3-b]pyridines

Benzyne and its 3,4,5,6-tetraphenyl, 3- and 4-methyl, 3-methoxy and 4,5-difluoro derivatives react with acetic acid 2-selenoxo-2H-pyridin-1-yl esters 4a-e to give benzo[b]seleno[2,3-b]pyridines 10-15 in modest yields. The benzynes were generated by one or more of the following methods: diazotization of anthranilic acids 5a-g with isoamyl nitrate; mild thermal decomposition of 2-diazoniobenzenecarboxylate hydrochlorides 6a-d; treatment of (phenyl)[o-(trimethylsilyl)phenyl]iodonium triflate (7) with tetrabutylammonium fluoride; and treatment of 2-trimethylsilylphenyl triflates 8a-c with cesium fluoride. In all the reactions, the corresponding 2-(methylselenenyl)pyridines 16a-d were also obtained suggesting that these reactions may involve selenium addition to benzyne via a SET (single electron transfer).
