Electrochemically Driven Tandem Cyclization Reaction of Unsaturated Sulfoximines with Diselenides.

An electrochemically enabled tandem cyclization reaction of unsaturated sulfoximines with diselenides has been well developed, affording metal‐ and external oxidant‐free access to sulfoximidoyl‐based heterocycles containing selenium in moderate to good yields. With nBu4NBr as the role of catalyst and electrolyte, this methodology shows broad substrate scope and functional group tolerance under mild conditions. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
