Abstract— Organoselenium derivatives of bis(2-chloroethyl) ether of general formula (RSeCH₂CH₂)₂O (R = Me, Et, Pr, i-Pr, Bu, i-Bu, C₆H₁₃, Cy, Bn, Ph) were synthesized. The products are potential electron-donating polydentate ligands for the synthesis of transition metal complexes, as well as the components of catalytic systems in the reactions of oligomerization of ethylene.

Keywords: selenium, organoselenium compounds, polydentate ligands, bis(2-chloroethyl) ether
