The cyclization of substituted diaryl(hetaryl)alkynes with in-situ-prepared SeBr4 has been achieved. The use of an alkene additive as a bromine scavenger gives simple access to functionalized benzo[b]selenophene and selenophenothiophene derivatives from commercially available or easily accessible starting materials. The reactions can be performed in air without the use of moisture-sensitive reagents, dry solvents, or an inert atmosphere. Mechanistic studies confirmed a regioselective anti 1,2-addition in the selenobromination step, and a subsequent electrophilic substitution in the aromatic ring to complete the cyclization.
