Abstract

Selenium nuclear magnetic resonance spectra have been observed for a number of selenium compounds. Chemical shifts and coupling constants with hydrogen and fluorine have been obtained. Various systems involving selenium compounds have been studied. It was found that a mixture of SeOF2and SeOCl2contains SeOClF and that rapid selenium exchange occurs between SeOCl2and SeOBr2presumably via the intermediate SeOClBr. The reactions of selenium tetrahalides with sulfur and selenium trioxides and with boron trifluoride were studied. It was observed that antimony pentachloride, tin tetrachloride, arsenic trichloride, quinoline, and potassium chloride produce considerable shifts in the resonance of selenium oxychloride. These shifts can be interpreted in terms of the acid–base behavior of the solutes.
