1,5-Diselenacyclo-octane: synthesis and the first isolation of the diselenide PF6– salt [R2Se+–Se+R2]
Abstract
A new cyclic bis-selenide, 1,5-diselenacyclo-octane (1) has been prepared; two-electron oxidation of (1) with two equivalents of NOPF6 gave a novel diselenide PF6– salt which acts as an oxidizing agent.
