  • Selenium Compounds Are Federal Hazardous Air Pollutants and Were Identified As Toxic Air Contaminants in April 1993 Under AB 2728
    SELENIUM COMPOUNDS Selenium compounds are federal hazardous air pollutants and were identified as toxic air contaminants in April 1993 under AB 2728. CAS Registry Number of Selenium: 7782-49-2 Se Selenium monosulfide: 7446-34-6 SeS Molecular Formula of Selenium: Se Selenium monosulfide: SSe Elemental selenium exists in several allotropic forms. The amorphous form is either red in powder form, or black in vitreous form. The crystalline monoclinic prism form is deep red and the black crystalline hexagonal form (the most stable variety) is a lustrous metallic gray. Selenium is odorless and insoluble in water and alcohol, but soluble in chloroform, methylene iodide, benzene, quinoline, nitric acid, sulfuric acid, ether, carbon disulfide, aqueous potassium cyanide and potassium sulfate solutions (HSDB, 1991; Sax, 1989). Selenium possesses photovoltaic (converts radiant energy to electrical energy) and photoconductive (where electrical resistance decreases with increased illumination) properties. There are six isotopes (Merck, 1989). The properties of selenium compounds vary with the individual selenium compound. Selenium sulfide is the only selenium compound currently shown to be carcinogenic in animals. It is a bright orange powder which emits toxic fumes of selenium and sulfur oxides when heated to decomposition (Sax, 1989). It is soluble in benzene and carbon disulfide. Examples of Selenium Compounds Selenic acid Selenium dioxide Selenourea Seleninyl bis(dimethylamide) Selenium hexafluoride Selsun Seleninyl bromide Selenium monosulfide

The second section of the review is dedicated to structural analy- sis and is divided into 14 subsections, each focusing on one type of sulfur-contain- ing moiety. A concise graphical representation of each class features drugs that are organized on the basis of structural similarity, evolutionary relevance, and medical indication. This review ofers a unique and comprehensive overview of the struc- tural features of all sulfur-containing FDA-approved drugs to date.
