Use | selenourea is an organic compound, which is mainly used as a reagent for Photometric Determination of osmium and can also be used in organic synthesis. |
preparation method | selenourea was originally prepared by the reaction of hydrogen selenide and cyanamide in 1884 from: h2Se NCNH2 → SeC(NH2)2 this process can be used for industrial production. Some selenoureas containing substituents can be prepared by the reaction of isoselenocyanates and secondary amines: RN = C = Se nhr' R "→ Se = C(NRH)(NR 'R" H) |
production method | is made by the interaction of hydrogen selenide and cyanamide. |
