In this review article we have discussed synthesis, free radical scavenging, enzyme inhibition, anticancer activity, DNA binding of selenoureas and detection of selenium species. We have given the structure and activity relationships of different selenoureas with each other and with their sulfur homologues (thioureas). Copyright © 2014 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
