Selenium tetrafluoride (Se F 4) is an inorganic compound.It is a colourless liquid that reacts readily with water. It can be used as a fluorinating reagent in organic syntheses (fluorination of alcohols, carboxylic acids or carbonyl compounds) and has advantages over sulfur tetrafluoride in that milder conditions can be employed and it is a liquid rather than a gas.
Sulfur tetrafluoride is the premier example of a molecule with the disphenoidal molecular geometry (see image at upper right). The following compounds and ions have disphenoidal geometry: [5] SF 4; SeF 4; IF 2 O − 2; IOF 3; ClF + 4; TeF 4; XeO 2 F 2; SCl 4; AsF − 4
Seleninyl fluoride can be produced by the reaction of selenium oxychloride and potassium fluoride. [3] 2 KF + SeOCl 2 → 2 KCl + SeOF 2. It can also be produced by the reaction of selenium tetrafluoride with water or selenium dioxide. [2] SeF 4 + H 2 O → SeOF 2 + 2 HF SeF 4 + SeO 2 → 2 SeOF 2
The 3-center 4-electron (3c–4e) bond is a model used to explain bonding in certain hypervalent molecules such as tetratomic and hexatomic interhalogen compounds, sulfur tetrafluoride, the xenon fluorides, and the bifluoride ion.
Selenium is found in metal sulfide ores, where it substitutes for sulfur. Commercially, selenium is produced as a byproduct in the refining of these ores. Minerals that are pure selenide or selenate compounds are rare. The chief commercial uses for selenium today are glassmaking and pigments. Selenium is a semiconductor and is used in photocells.
Solid SeO 2 is a one-dimensional polymer, the chain consisting of alternating selenium and oxygen atoms. Each Se atom is pyramidal and bears a terminal oxide group. The bridging Se-O bond lengths are 179 pm and the terminal Se-O distance is 162 pm. [5] The relative stereochemistry at Se alternates along the polymer chain (syndiotactic).
