H2Se (or HSe⁻), which is generated in situ through the reaction of Se/DMF/H2O, functions as a potent reducing agent. In this reduction system, water acts as an affordable, safe, and eco-conscious hydrogen donor, exhibiting remarkable selectivity and commendable activity in the reduction of α,β-unsaturated ketones and alkynes.
