Abstract
A reaction of elemental selenium with 4-ethylpyridine has been studied. The process was run in sealed ampuls, within 205–240 & deg;C, under nitrogen. The reaction products were indentified by GC-MS and 1H NMR. The following products have been identified: (4-pyridyl)hydroxymethyl ketone, (4-pyridyl)methyl ketone, (4-pyridyl)-hydroselenomethyl ketone. 2,3-di(4-pyridyl)butane, 1,3-di(4-pyridyl)butane, 1-(4-pyridyl)-1-[2-(4-ethyl)pyridyl]-ethane, 1-(4-pyridyl)-1-[2-(4-ethenyl)pyridyl]ethane.
