Nucleophilic species of tellurium and sulfur were generated in situ from the reaction of the respective diorganyl dichalcogenides with NaBH4 in PEG-400 as solvent and selectively added to electron-deficient alkenes. Chalcogenolate anions were directly added at mild conditions by this simple procedure and in all cases furnished the respective Michael adducts in short reaction times and good yields.
