Subsequent treatment with hydrogen peroxide allows oxidative elimination via an intermediate selenoxide.
It is only after four in situ chemical transformations (oxidation to the selenoxide, [2,3]-sigmatropic rearrangement, a second oxidation and loss of allyl alcohol) that the true catalyst (4) is generated (equation 1).
