Abstract

(preparation of methyl selenoesters; aldol condensation of enones) Solubility: reaction are typically run in toluene. Preparative Methods: conveniently prepared by heating a toluene solution of Trimethylaluminum with powdered Selenium for 2 h at reflux.2 The yellow-colored supernatant was transferred to a septum-capped argon-filled Erlenmeyer flask. Handling, Storage, and Precautions: the reagent was found to retain its activity for approximately one month at rt. Selenium reagents are toxic and should be handled with caution, in a fume hood.
