Abstract

A new catalytic method for direct α-organylchalcogenation of aldehydes and ketones has been developed. When various aldehydes and ketones were allowed to react with diorganyl dichalcogenides in the presence of K3PO4, under mild reaction conditions, the corresponding α-organylseleno and α-arylthio aldehydes and ketones were obtained in good to high yields.
