Production

Carbon sulfide selenide was made by Henry Vincent Aird Briscoe by passing carbon disulfide vapour over ferrous selenide.[1]

CS2 + FeSe → CSSe + FeS

Earlier it was made by passing an electric arc through liquid carbon disulfide in the presence of selenium.[1]

Properties

Carbon sulfide selenide appears as a dark yellow oily liquid.[1] Its boiling point is about 83.92°C at 749.2 mmHg pressure.[1] The density of the liquid at 25° is 1.9777 Mg/m3.[1] Coefficient if cubic expansion is 0.000996.[1]

The liquid does not wet glass.[1] It is immiscible in water, but dissolves in acetone, benzene, bromoform or ethyl alcohol.[1]

The C-S bond length is 1.553 Å and the C-Se bond length is 1.695 Å[2]

The effect on humans is lachrymatory, the vapour is extremely irritating to mucous membranes, and it smells disgusting.[1]

Reactions

Carbon sulfide selenide reacts with zinc and hydrochloric acid yielding hydrogen sulfide and hydrogen selenide.[1]

Carbon sulfide selenide reacts with dimethyl acetylenedicarboxylate under high pressure to yield a dithiadiselenafulvalene derivative.[4]

Reduction of carbon sulfide selenide forms a 1,3-dichalcogenole-2-chalcogenone-4,5-dichalcogenolate, but is a mixture of S and Se substances.[5] Selenium is in the 4,5 charged positions.[6]

A reaction with iodine and azide with carbon sulfide selenide results in the formation of selenium.[7]

Carbon sulfide selenide reacts with chlorine gas to form thiocarbonyl tetrachloride and selenium tetrachloride.[8] It does not react with iodine by itself, but only dissolves it.[8]

CSSe + 4 Cl2 → ClSCCl3 + SeCl4

Carbon sulfide selenide reacts with bromine liquid to form thiocarbonyl tetrabromide and selenium tetrabromide and also some C2S2SeBr6.[8]

CSSe + 4 Br2 → BrSCBr3 + SeBr4

Carbon sulfide selenide can complex with palladium. It reacts with Pd[P(CH(CH3)2)3]2, Pd[P(CH(CH3)2)3]3 or Pd[P(C6H5)3]4] to displace all but two of the ligands to add CSSe as a bidentate ligand. P(CH(CH3)2)3 also reacts with CSSe to yield [P(CH(CH3)2)3]+[CSSe]. For these reactions, methanol can be a solvent.[9] C and Se atoms are ligands to the metal. The bonds in C=S and C=Se are lengthened in the ligand. The bond opposite to the C atom is lengthened.[9]
