Key Points

  • The aim is to develop a new method for synthesizing organic selenocyanates and thiocyanates from alkenylthianthrenium salts using photochemical reactions.
  • Utilized photochemical reaction conditions for synthesis
  • Employed alkenylthianthrenium salts as starting materials
  • No photocatalyst or single electron donor required
  • Successfully synthesized styrenyl selenocyanates and thiocyanates
  • Demonstrated mild reaction conditions
  • Showcased a greener approach to organic compound synthesis

Abstract

ABSTRACT Organic selenocyanates and thiocyanates are important organic synthetic intermediates. Herein, we report a simple synthetic method for preparing styrenyl selenocyanates/thiocyanates from alkenylthianthrenium salts under photochemical reaction conditions, features simple manipulation and mild conditions, without the need for photocatalyst or single electron donor. This method provides a green new approach for the synthesis of organic selenium/sulfur compounds.
