Procedure
To a suspension of 3-amino-5-(tert-butyl)selenophene-2-carbonitrile (2.0 g) in aqueous sodium hydroxide solution (50 mL, 10%) was added ethanol (50 mL) and the mixture refluxed for 1 h. Ethanol was distilled off under vacuum and the mixture was allowed to cool to 5-10° C. The separated crystals were filtered off, washed with cold water and dried to give the product as an off-white color solid (1.8 g, 83%), mp 160-162° C. (Hesse, S.; Chenet, C.; Thomae, D.; Kirsch, G. Synthesis, 2009, 1204-1208). 1H NMR (400 MHz, CDCl3): δ 6.58 (1H, s), 5.75 (2H, br s), 5.13 (2H, br s), 1.34 (9H, s).
