Abstract
Ultrasonic (US) irradiation was successfully used as an alternative energy source to prepare 3-selanylindoles through the direct selanylation of indoles with diorganyl diselenides using CuI (20 mol%) as catalyst and DMSO as the solvent. By using this US-promoted reaction, eleven 3-organylselanylindoles were prepared selectively and in good yields. A comparative study between the reactions under conventional heating, microwave and ultrasound irradiations was performed, and it was observed advantage in using US over the other heating systems.
