Descripción

Application

Selenium dioxide (SeO₂) is mainly used to oxidize the activated carbon-bearing positions (α-methylene carbon atoms), particularly at allylic or propargylic sites. The more substituted end of the double bond undergoes oxidation.
It can also be used as an oxidizing reagent to synthesize:

• Amides by oxidative amidation of aldehydes with amines.
• Tropone from cycloheptatriene in the presence of potassium dihydrogen phosphate.
• Acetyltetrahydrobenzofurans by oxidation of conjugated dienones.
• 9-hydroxy-undec-10-ynoate from methyl undec-10-ynoate.
