Abstract

The aim of the present review is to summarize the recent advances in the synthesis of β-hydroxy selenides through the direct hydroxyselenenylation of substituted alkenes in the past 45 years. Hopefully, it can provide practical guidance for the readers who are interested in the application of bifunctionalization reactions in the synthesis of functionalizaed organoselenium compounds. For simplicity and clarity, the organization of this review is based on the type of catalysts.
