✦ Synopsis

Hitherto unknown selenoketene, CH2=(3=Se, has been produced by pyrolysis of 1,2,3-selenodiazole and identified by observation of microwave absorption from CH2=C=*OSe and CH2=C=78Se. The C=C and C=Se bond lengths of selenoketene agree with bond lengths in ketene. CH2=C=O, and in carbonyl sulpbide, O=C=S.
