文摘In the presence of molecular iodine, the reaction of alkenes with diselenides proceeds efficiently under air and at room temperature in mixed solvent MeCN/H2O, which affording β-hydroxy selenides with high regioselectivity and in good to excellent yields. This iodine-mediated vicinal difunctionalization of alkenes requires mild reaction conditions and is a simple procedure, which extends the synthetic application of molecular iodine in organic synthesis.
