Bis(2,4,6-tri-tert-butylphenyl)diselenide (1) is reduced by lithium triethylhydridoborate to give lithium 2,4,6-tri-tert-butylphenylselenide (2) in high yield. 2 crystallizes with three molecules of tetrahydrofuran coordinated to lithium ( = 2a, space group , Z = 4).The monomeric compound 2a contains four-coordinate lithium bonded to two-coordinate selenium. 2 (LiSeR) reacts with the nonmetal and metal halides tBu2PCl, CH2Cl2, Me3SiCl, Me3SnCl, and Ph3PAuCl to give tBu2PSeR (3), RSeCH2Cl (4), (RSe)2CH2 (5), Me3SiSeR (6), Me3SnSeR (7), and the novel gold(I) selenophenolate derivative Ph3PAuSeR (8) (R = 2,4,6-tri-tert-butylpheny l).
