Short description: Class of chemical compounds

A selenonic acid is an organoselenium compound containing the –SeO
3H functional group. The formula of selenonic acids is R–Se(=O)
2–OH, where R is organyl group. Selenonic acids are the selenium analogs of sulfonic acids.[1] Examples of the acid are rare. Benzeneselenonic acid PhSeO
