Aluminium selenide
Aluminium selenide is the inorganic compound with the formula Al2Se3.
It is a solid prepared by igniting a mixture of the elements at 1,000 °C (1,830 °F):
The pure compound is white, but typical samples are coloured. Samples are usually protected from moisture, because they hydrolyze readily, giving off highly toxic hydrogen selenide gas:
Al2Se3 has been used as a precursor to hydrogen selenide, which is released when the solid is treated with acids.
