摘要

The preparation of heteroaryl trifluoromethyl selenoethers by the trifluoromethylselenolation of heteroaryl bromides with [(bpy)CuSeCF3](2) was investigated. Using this approach, a large number of trifluoromethylselenolated heterocyclic compounds were synthesized in good to excellent yields. It was demonstrated that this procedure tolerates a wide variety of functional groups.
