Electrophilic selenium catalysis has recently emerged as an attractive synthetic strategy, yet the field of enantioselective electrophilic selenium catalysis remains underdeveloped, primarily due to the scarcity of efficient chiral catalysts and limited reaction types. Herein, the authors disclose the design and synthesis of a series of novel planar chiral organoseleniums based on [2.2]paracyclophane.
