The applicability of potassium selenocyanate and selenourea as the selenium-introducing reagent has been studied. The best results are obtained by the use of selenourea as the selenium-introducing agent. Using this reagent it seems to be possible to obtain some derivatives of 8-hydroselenoquinoline that cannot be synthesized by using potassium selenocyanate as selenium-introducing agent. The corresponding 8,8'-diquinolyldiselenide and methylselenoquinolines synthesized also. The obtained substances characterized by UV-spectra. %K 8-hydroselenoquinoline %K 8-hydroselenoquinoline alkyl-derivatives %K 8-hydroselenoquinoline alkyloxy derivatives %K 8-hydroselenoquinoline phenyl derivatives %U http://versita.metapress.com/content/9015775m5n166536/?p=e2cc29d2bc374975a93f28996934d652&pi=4
