Selenium dioxide is the chemical compound with the formula SeO2. This colorless solid is one of the most frequently encountered compounds of selenium. With the CAS NO. 7446-08-4, Solid SeO2 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.
Preparation of Selenium dioxide: Selenium dioxide is prepared by oxidation of selenium by burning in air, nitric acid or by reaction with hydrogen peroxide, but perhaps the most convenient preparation is by the dehydration of selenous acid.
3 Se + 4 HNO3 + H2O → 3 H2SeO3 + 4 NO
2 H2O2 + Se → SeO2 + 2 H2O
H2SeO3 →SeO2 + H2O
Uses of Selenium dioxide: Selenium dioxide can be used for making high-purity selenium and other selenium compounds, or organic synthetic drugs' oxidants and catalyst. Either ,selenium dioxide can used as a base special reagents of alkali plant ,and can be used to precipitate zirconium and hafnium and preparat selenium compounds.
