Herein, we describe an approach toward selenazole preparation based on the cycloisomerization of propargyl selenoamides. The selenoamides were synthesized in situ using the Ishihara reagent with spontaneous cyclization to form the 2,5-disubstituted selenazoles. Heterocylcles 9a–j were prepared using readily available starting materials, and yields ranged from moderate to good (20–80%). Methylselenazole 9a could be transformed into a bromomethyl derivative 13 using NBS. The intermediate 13 would provide a more versatile building block for further derivatizations, e.g., the cyanide 14.
