Synthesis and Single Crystal Structures of <i>N</i>-Substituted Benzamides and Their Chemoselective Selenation/Reduction Derivatives

A series of <i>N</i>-aryl-<i>N</i>-(2-oxo-2-arylethyl) benzamides and cinnamides has been prepared. The reaction of the benzamides with Woollins’ reagent, a highly efficient chemoselective selenation/reduction reagent, gave the corresponding <i>N</i>-aryl-<i>...
