Biriefly, to a solution of selenium powder (0.80g, 10.0 mmol) in dry THF (100mL) was added lithium aluminium hydride (0.38 g, 10.0 mmol) at 0°C under an argon atmosphere. The mixture was stirred at 0°C for 30 min. The formed LiA1HSeH 2 is then ready for use in further reaction without concentration.
