Selenourea

Selenourea is the organoselenium compound with the chemical formula Se=C(NH2)2. It is a white solid. This compound features a rare example of a stable, unhindered carbon-selenium double bond. The compound is used in the synthesis of selenium heterocycles. Selenourea is a selenium analog of urea O=C(NH2)2. Few studies have been done on the compound due to the instability and toxicity of selenium compounds. Selenourea is toxic if inhaled or consumed.
