Abstract
A series of α-substituted selenenyl acetophenone derivatives of the types, [PhC(OCH2CH2O)CH2Se]2, [PhC(OCH2CH2O)CH2SeR], (PhCOCH2Se)2, and [PhCOCH2SeR] have been prepared. These compounds have been characterized by elemental analyses, IR and NMR (1H, 13C, 77Se) spectroscopy. The compounds, [PhC(OCH2CH2)CH2Se]2 and (PhCOCH2Se)2 have been structurally characterized by single crystal X-ray diffraction analyses. The former shows intra-molecular Se‐ ‐ ‐O interaction, while the latter exhibits inter-molecular nonbonding Se‐ ‐ ‐O interaction.
