Front Cover: Formation of Cyclic Selenium Imides via Acyclic Selenium Imide Chlorides in Cyclocondensation of Selenium Dichloride with <i>tert</i>‐Butylamine (Eur. J. Inorg. Chem. 28/2025)

The Front Cover describes the cyclic organic selenium imides and acyclic imidoselenium chlorides that have been isolated and identified upon cyclocondensation of SeCl2 and tBuNH2. The name selenium is derived from selene, the Greek name for the Moon. In their Research Article (DOI: 10.1002/ejic.202500292), H. M. Tuononen, R. S. Laitinen and co-workers present detailed DFT calculations that describe the complicated reaction route in terms of elementary steps involving key intermediate formation, chain extension, and ring closure, in a similar manner to what has been proposed for the formation of cyclophosphazanes and -phosphazenes. Some steps also involve redox processes.

Abstract

The Front Cover describes the cyclic organic selenium imides and acyclic imidoselenium chlorides that have been isolated and identified upon cyclocondensation of SeCl2 and tBuNH2. The name selenium is derived from selene, the Greek name for the Moon. In their Research Article (DOI: 10.1002/ejic.202500292), H. M. Tuononen, R. S. Laitinen and co-workers present detailed DFT calculations that describe the complicated reaction route in terms of elementary steps involving key intermediate formation, chain extension, and ring closure, in a similar manner to what has been proposed for the formation of cyclophosphazanes and -phosphazenes. Some steps also involve redox processes.
