Selenocyanatespossessan extremely high propensityto produce diselenides on reaction with selenols or selenolates.This is effectivelyobservedwhen one molar equivalent of metal hydride or lithium triethyl borohydride or one fourth molar equivalent of metal borohydridesare reactedwith organic selenocya
The action of samarium diiodide on various keto-seienocyanates led to the chemoselective formation of the diselenide bond under very mild conditions. The flexibility of this method also allowed one to get either dialdehyde-diselenides or dicyanohydrin-dialdehydes from the same parent oxo-selenocyana
