I want to get pure diselenide substrate but in the rxn mixture both selenides and diselenides are forming. and both have the same retaintion factor value. so, I am not able to separate it through liquid chromatography technique.
Check for the solubility of diselenide and monoselenide. Monoselenides are usually soluble in methanol or ethanol and diselenides are soluble in chloroform. Recrystallize in suitable solvent.
Renata Małgorzata Gadzała-Kopciuch I am using 60-120 mesh silica as the stationary phase and hexane as the mobile phase. Are the diselenide derivatives reactive in the air? how to get selective diselenides?
