Electrochemically generated cation radicals derived from cyclic alkylphenyl selenides (selenochromane and selenochromanone) can react on two parallel paths: by deprotonization with the formation of compounds containing double bonds in the selenium-bearing rings and by homolytic cleavage of the C/sub sp3/ carbon-selenium bond followed by dimerization and the formation of a diselenide with an extended ring. The relative yields are determined by the mobility of the proton on the ..cap alpha..-carbon atom in the selenium-bearing ring.
