Synthesis of 3,4-Bis(Butylselanyl)Selenophenes and 4-Alkoxyselenophenes Promoted by Oxone®

open access: yesMolecules, 2021
We describe herein an alternative transition-metal-free procedure to access 3,4-bis(butylselanyl)selenophenes and the so far unprecedented 3-(butylselanyl)-4-alkoxyselenophenes. The protocol involves the 5-endo-dig electrophilic cyclization of 1,3-diynes

Targeted Delivery of Chlorin e6 via Redox Sensitive Diselenide-Containing Micelles for Improved Photodynamic Therapy in Cluster of Differentiation 44-Overexpressing Breast Cancer

open access: yesFrontiers in Pharmacology, 2019
The off-target activation of photosensitizers is one of the most well-known obstacles to effective photodynamic therapy (PDT). The selected activation of photosensitizers in cancer cells is highly desired to overcome this problem. We developed a strategy

Organic Passivation of Deep Defects in Cu(In,Ga)Se2 Film for Geometry-Simplified Compound Solar Cells

open access: yesResearch, 2023
Diverse defects in copper indium gallium diselenide solar cells cause nonradiative recombination losses and impair device performance. Here, an organic passivation scheme for surface and grain boundary defects is reported, which employs an organic ...

Integration of a Diselenide Unit Generates Fluorogenic Camptothecin Prodrugs with Improved Cytotoxicity to Cancer Cells

open access: yes, 2021
A diselenide/disulfide unit was introduced into camptothecin (CPT), and two selenoprodrugs (e.g., CPT–Se3 and CPT–Se4) were identified to show improved potency in killing cancer cells and inhibiting tumor growth in vivo.

Crystal structures of 4,4′-(disulfane-1,2-diyl)bis(5-methyl-2H-1,3-dithiol-2-one) and 4,4′-(diselanane-1,2-diyl)bis(5-methyl-2H-1,3-dithiol-2-one)

open access: yesActa Crystallographica Section E: Crystallographic Communications, 2018
The two title compounds, C8H6O2S6 and C8H6O2S4Se2, are isotypic with very similar cell parameters. The complete molecules constitute the asymmetric units, despite being chemically perfectly symmetric.
