Abstract
The treatment of 1-phenylthioacetylenes with phenylselenolate and butyl or phenyltellurolate anions generated by the reaction of the corresponding dic halcogenide with NaBH4 in aqueous ethanol results in the formation of mixed 1,2-bis(organylchalcogeno)-1-alkenes of Z configuration. The phenylthio gr oup acts as a directing and activating group for the nucleophilic addition of the chalcogenate anions (C) 2001 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserv ed.
