Preparation of the first organoselenium peroxide, t-butyl benzeneperoxyseleninate

Abstract
T-Butyl benzeneperoxyseleninate, PhSe(O)OOBut, has been prepared by the reaction of t-butyl hydroperoxide with PhSe(O)OSe(O)Ph or PhSe(O)OEt, and of sodium t-butyl peroxide with PhSe(O)Br. Formation of the less stable analogues p-MeC6H4Se(O)OOBut and BuSe(O)OOBut from t-butyl hydroperoxide and the corresponding seleninyl anhydrides has been confirmed by 13C n.m.r. spectroscopy.
