Phosphoroselenoates are important organic molecules because they have found widespread applications in many fields. Herein, an efficient electrochemical dehydrogenative approach to prepare phosphoroselenoates from (hetero)arenes and phosphonates using elemental selenium as the selenium source is reported. This approach is compatible with various functional groups and can be easily scaled up. Our control experiments revealed that electricity plays an important role in this transformation.
