The reaction of 2‐styrylacetanilides (2) with N ‐phenylselenosuccinimide affords 1‐ N ‐acetyl‐2‐phenyl‐3‐phenylselenoindoles (3) and 1‐ N ‐acetyl‐2‐phenylindoles (4) . The reaction of 2‐vinylacetanilides (5) with phenylselenenyl bromide proceeds to form indoles via an intramolecular amidoselenation.
