Diphenyl diselenide a janus-faced molecule [PDF]
In this review, we summarized the potential role of synthetic organoseleno compounds as therapeutic or toxic agents, giving emphasis almost exclusively to diphenyl diselenide, the simplest of the diaryl diselenides, and some of its analogs. We presented the main molecular aspects related to the in vitro toxicity and pharmacology of diphenyl diselenide ...

Carbocyclization by Radical Closure onto O-Trityl Oximes: Dramatic Effect of Diphenyl Diselenide
O-Trityl oximes of 5- and 6-iodoaldehydes undergo radical cyclization to produce oximes when treated in refluxing tetrahydrofuran (THF) with Bu3SnH, 1,1‘-azobis(cyclohexanecarbonitrile), i-Pr2NEt, and diphenyl diselenide (PhSeSePh)

Cesium Carbonate-Catalyzed α-Phenylchalcogenation of Carbonyl Compounds with Diphenyl Dichalcogenide
It was found that cesium carbonate has a unique catalytic ability on the reaction of carbonyl compounds with diphenyl diselenide to give the corresponding α-phenylseleno carbonyl compounds in moderate to good yields.

Selenium-Catalyzed Reduction of Hydroperoxides in Chemistry and Biology
Among the chalcogens, selenium is the key element for catalyzed H2O2 reduction. In organic synthesis, catalytic amounts of organo mono- and di-selenides are largely used in different classes of oxidations, in which H2O2 alone is poorly efficient ...

Catalytic Antioxidant Activity of Bis-Aniline-Derived Diselenides as GPx Mimics
Herein, we describe a simple and efficient route to access aniline-derived diselenides and evaluate their antioxidant/GPx-mimetic properties. The diselenides were obtained in good yields via ipso-substitution/reduction from the readily available 2 ...

A Simple Zinc-Mediated Method for Selenium Addition to Michael Acceptors
In this work, we focused our attention on seleno-Michael type reactions. These were performed using zinc-selenolates generated in situ from diphenyl diselenide 1, 1,2-bis(3-phenylpropyl)diselenide 30, and protected selenocystine 31 via an efficient ...

New therapeutic approach: diphenyl diselenide reduces mitochondrial dysfunction in acetaminophen-induced acute liver failure. [PDF]
The acute liver failure (ALF) induced by acetaminophen (APAP) is closely related to oxidative damage and depletion of hepatic glutathione, consequently changes in cell energy metabolism and mitochondrial dysfunction have been observed after APAP overdose.

Diphenyl diselenide supplemented diet reduces depressive-like behavior in hypothyroid female rats [PDF]
Hypothyroidism has been associated to psychiatric disorder development and tissue oxidative damage. In this study, we evaluated the effect of diphenyl diselenide supplementation on depressive-like behavior triggered by methimazole exposure in female rats.
