Notes:
The reaction pathway of urea formation by selenium-catalysed carbonylation of secondary amines with carbon monoxide in the presence of oxygen was studied using piperidine as a secondary amine. It was established that selenium reacts with carbon monoxide and piperidine to give carbamoselenoate as an intermediate, which affords biscarbamoyl diselenide by the oxidation with molecular oxygen. Aminolysis of biscarbamoyl diselenide gives the urea derivative, accompanying the regeneration of selenium catalyst.
