Reaction Steps

The 3-amino-5-(tert-butyl)selenophene-2-carbonitrile is prepared starting from the 3-chloro-4,4-dimethylpent-2-enenitrile, sodium selenide and chloroacetonitrile, which on diazotization with sodium nitrite followed by treatment with dimethylamine gave the required 3-[(dimethylamino)diazenyl]-5-(tert-butyl)selenophene-2-carbonitrile (compound 11).
