Dimethyl selenide is the organoselenium compound with the formula (CH3)2Se. This colorless, malodorous liquid is the simplest selenoether. It occurs in trace amounts in anaerobic environments[1] and in the atmosphere due to biomethylation of selenium.[2][3]
Dimethyl selenide is prepared by treating Se2− sources with electrophilic methylating agents such as methyl iodide:
- Na2Se + 2 CH3I → (CH3)2Se + 2 NaI
The carbon–selenium bond length is 1.943 Å and the C–Se–C bond angle is 96.2°, as determined by rotational microwave spectroscopy.[4][5] Similar dimensions of 1.98 Å and 98° are found by gas electron diffraction.[6][7]
