Fun FactsDiscovered by J. J. Berzelius in 1817.

Selenium => Selene (moon)Chalcogen (O, S, Te)Among the 25 least common elements

0.05 – 0.09 ppm in the earth crustRecommended daily intake: 55µg (max

400µg/day)>1000µg/day => intoxicationsBrazil nuts, fishes and seafood (oyster and

tuna)...North American cereals (Beer!)

ConclusionSelenium compounds are very versatile catalystsDifferent oxidation state allows completely

different reaction pathwaysLittle work as been focusing on their strong

electron donating properties as a ligandLittle success in achieving stereoselective

reactions with catalytic amount of enantioenriched organoselenium

Developpement towards its industrial use rather than fine chemistry
