Trifluoromethylselenolation and Fluoroalkylselenolation of Alkenes by Electrophilic Addition

Fluoroalkylselenylated compounds are still underused due to a lack of efficient synthetic methods. Herein, we describe an efficient synthesis of α‐chloro‐β‐fluoroalkylselenolated molecules through electrophilic addition of in situ preformed fluoroalkylselenyl chlorides onto alkenes. The obtained compounds constitute valuable building blocks for further applications.
