In the title compound, C18H17N3O2Se, the selenadiazole ring is planar [maximum deviation = 0.012 (2) Å for the ring C atom bearing the phenyl substituent]. The dihedral angle between the selenadiazole ring and the attached benzene ring is 46.5 (1)°. There is one short intramolecular C—H⋯Se contact.

A mixture of 4-nitro-1,3-diiphenylhexan-1-one (1 mmol), semicarbazide hydrochloride(2 mmol) and anhydrous sodium acetate (3 mmol) in ethanol (10 ml) was refluxed for 4 h. After completion of the reaction as monitored by TLC, the mixture was poured into ice cold water and the resulting semicarbazone was filtered off. Then, a mixture of semicarbazone (1 mmol) and SeO2 (2 mmol) in tetrahydrofuran (10 ml) were refluxed on a water bath for 1 h. The selenium deposited on cooling was removed by filtration, and the filtrate was poured into crushed ice, extracted with dichloromethane, and purified by
using silica gel (60–120 mesh) with 97:3 petroleum ether: ethyl acetate as to give 5-(2-nitro-1-phenylbutyl)-4-phenyl-1,2, 3-selenadiazole.H atoms were positioned geometrically with C—H = 0.93–0.98 Å and allowed to ride on their parent atoms,with Uiso(H) = 1.5Ueq(C) for methyl H and 1.2Ueq(C) for other H atoms.

Geometry. All e.s.d.'s (except the e.s.d. in the dihedral angle between two l.s. planes) are estimated using the full covariance matrix. The cell e.s.d.'s are taken into account individually in the estimation of e.s.d.'s in distances, angles and torsion angles; correlations between e.s.d.'s in cell parameters are only used when they are defined by crystal symmetry. An approximate (isotropic) treatment of cell e.s.d.'s is used for estimating e.s.d.'s involving l.s. planes. |
Refinement. Refinement of F2 against ALL reflections. The weighted R-factor wR and goodness of fit S are based on F2, conventional R-factors R are based on F, with F set to zero for negative F2. The threshold expression of F2 > σ(F2) is used only for calculating R-factors(gt) etc. and is not relevant to the choice of reflections for refinement. R-factors based on F2 are statistically about twice as large as those based on F, and R- factors based on ALL data will be even larger. |

Selenadiazoles, having one selenium and two nitrogen atoms in a five membered ring, are the important class of organoselenium compounds utilized in the synthesis of semiconductor nanoparticles (Khanna, 2005). These 1,2, 3-selenadiazoles are used as the synthetic intermediates in the preparation of many alkynes and other selenium compounds. In addition, 1,2,3-Selenadiazoles are of interest owing to their chemical properties and biological applications such as anti-fungal (Kuroda et al., 2001), anti-bacterial (El-Kashef et al., 1986), anti-microbial (El-Bahaie et al., 1990), anti-cancer (Plano et al., 2010) and insecticidal (Padmavathi et al., 2002) properties. Glutathione peroxidases(GPx) are the antioxidant selenoenzymes protecting various organisms from oxidative stress by catalyzing the reduction of hydroperoxides at the expense of glutathione(GSH) (Stadtman, 1991). Owing to the above mentioned important properties of selenium containing compounds, the crystal structure of the title compound has been carried out.
The ORTEP plot of the molecule is shown in Fig.1. The bond lengths [Se1—N1] 1.877 (2)Å and [Se1—C8] 1.839 (2)Å are normal. The selenadiazol ring is planar and oriented at an angle of 46.5 (1)° with the attached phenyl ring. The phenylbutyl group is in extended conformation, which can be seen from the torsion angle values of [C9—C16—C17—C18]-178.5 (2)° & [C10—C9—C16—C17]-168.8 (2)°. The planar nitro group is oriented at an angle of 78.9 (2)° with phenylbutyl group. The molecular packing is controlled by C—H···π type of intermolecular interactions in addition to van der Waals forces.
