Abstract: A new method for assembling 1,3-selenazolines by the iodine- mediated reaction of the simplest building blocks such as elemental selenium, alkenes and acetonitrile has been discovered. A proposed mechanism includes the addition of the intermediate selenium iodides to alkene with subsequent solvent interception by the formed seleniranium ion.

Keywords: selenium, organoselenium compounds, alkenes, acetonitrile, iodine assistance, solvent interception, 1,3-selenazolines.
