The reaction of Pl SnLi with selenium in THF at room temperature led to the lithium triphenyltin selenide, which had been trapped by reaction with metal-14 halides (Scheme 18)2. 

In some cases, aUc5me hydrothiolation can be achieved in the absence of transition metal catalysts. Examples include the use of indium halides, selenium halides and salts, bases and p-cyclodextrin [215-226]. In particular, Cesium bases yield exclusively the anti-Markovnikov product and fi equently give high regioselectivity for the Z-linear olefin, which is complementary to transition metal catalysis. While these approaches as yet lack the generality of the transition metal-catalyzed systems, the ability to achieve hydrothiolation without the need for a metal catalyst is attractive. Undoubtedly, this area of research will continue to yield promising results. 

Complexes of the sulfenamido anion [RSNR ] with several transition metals [Zr(IV), Ti(IV), Mo(VI), W(Vf), Ni(If), and U(IV)] are known.They are prepared by the reaction of the lithium derivative of the sulfenamido anion with a metal halide complex. A selenium complex W(N Bu)2( BuNSePh)2 has been obtained in a similar... 

Hydrides of variable composition are not only formed with pure metals as solvents. A large number of the binary metal hydrides are non-stoichiometric compounds. Non-stoichiometric compounds are in general common for d,f and some p block metals in combination with soft anions such as sulfur, selenium and hydrogen, and also for somewhat harder anions like oxygen. Hard anions such as the halides, sulfates and nitrides form few non-stoichiometric compounds. Two factors are important the crystal structures must allow changes in composition, and the transition metal must have accessible oxidation states. These factors are partly related. FeO,... 

The chemical properties of selenium fall between sulfur and tellurium. Thus, selenium reacts with oxygen similarly to sulfur, forming two oxides, selenium dioxide, Se02 and trioxide, SeOs. The metal combines with halogens forming their halides. With nonmetals, selenium forms binary compounds exhibiting oxidation states +4 and -i-6. 

The next five chapters deal with deposition of specific groups of semiconductors. In Chapter 4, II-VI Semiconductors, all the sulphides, selenides, and (what little there is on) tellurides of cadmium (most of the chapter), zinc (a substantial part), and mercury (a small part). (Oxides are left to a later chapter.) This chapter is, understandably, a large one, due mainly to the large amount of work carried out on CdS and to a lesser extent on CdSe. Chapter 5, PbS and PbSe, provides a separate forum for PbS and PbSe, which provided much of the focus for CD in earlier years. The remaining sulphides and selenides are covered in Chapter 6, Other Sulphides and Selenides. There are many of these compounds, thus, this is a correspondingly large chapter. Chapter 7, Oxides and Other Semiconductors, is devoted mainly to oxides and some hydroxides, as well as to miscellaneous semiconductors that have only been scantily studied (elemental selenium and silver halides). These previous chapters have been limited to binary semiconductors, made up of two elements (with the exception of elemental Se). Chapter 8, Ternary Semiconductors, extends this list to semiconductors composed of three elements, whether two different metals (most of the studies) or two different chalcogens.
