The title molecule, C6H3N3O2Se, is almost planar. In the crystal, intermolecular C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds link the molecules into a network structure, enclosing R22(7) and R33(8) ring motifs, parallel to the bc plane. There are π–π interactions present with centroid-to-centroid distances of 3.746 (3) and 3.697 (3) Å. A Hirshfeld surface analysis of the indicates that the most important contributions for the crystal packing are from H⋯O/O⋯H (19.6%), H⋯N/N⋯H (11.0%), H⋯Se/Se⋯H (8.5%), O⋯Se/Se⋯O (8.2%), H⋯H (7.4%), C⋯N/N⋯C (7.3%) and N⋯Se/Se⋯N (7.2%) interactions. Hydrogen bonding and van der Waals interactions are the dominant interactions in the crystal packing. The volume of the crystal voids and the percentage of free space were calculated to be 25.60 Å3 and 3.73%, showing that there is no large cavity in the crystal.
Keywords: crystal structure; non-covalent interactions; chalcogen bond.

1. Chemical context
Like other weak interactions, the chalcogen bond (ChB) has attracted considerable attention due to its various applications in synthesis, catalysis, crystal engineering, biochemical processes, molecular recognition, functional materials, etc. (Mahmudov et al., 2017; Mahmudov et al., 2022; Scilabra et al., 2019). Both bond parameters, strength and directionality of ChB can be improved by variation of substituents, ChB atom (tunability), resonance and cooperation of weak interactions (Aliyeva et al., 2024; Gurbanov et al., 2020). For instance, due to cooperation of the ChB, the common four-membered Se2N2 aggregate of [1,2,5]selenadiazoles is well employed in materials chemistry (Hua et al., 2020; Ho et al., 2020; Tiekink, 2022). In this regard, we studied the ortho-NO2 effect on the Se2N2 synthon of 4-nitrobenzo[c][1,2,5]selenadiazole aggregates. We provided herein a detailed synthesis and an examination of the molecular and crystal structures together with the Hirshfeld surface analysis and crystal voids of the title compound, (I).
2. Structural commentary
The title compound (Fig. 1) is almost planar, with the planar A (C1–C6) and B (Se/N1/N2/C1/C6) rings oriented at a dihedral angle of A/B = 0.94 (15)°. Atoms N3, O1 and O2 are displaced by −0.004 (6), −0.024 (6) and 0.022 (6) Å, respectively, from the best least-squares plane of ring A. Hence, they are almost coplanar. There are no unusual bond distances or interbond angles in the molecule.
3. Supramolecular features
In the crystal, intermolecular C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds (Table 1) link the molecules into a network structure, enclosing R22(7) and R33(8) ring motifs (Fig. 2), parallel to the bc plane (Fig. 3). No C—H⋯π(ring) interactions are observed but there are two π–π interactions between the almost parallel A and B rings and also between the parallel B rings with centroid-to-centroid distances of 3.746 (3) and 3.697 (3) Å, respectively [Cg1⋯Cg2i = 3.746 (3) Å with α = 0.91° and Cg2⋯Cg2i = 3.697 (3) Å with α = 0.00° where Cg1 and Cg2 are the centroids of rings A and B, respectively; symmetry code: (i) −x, −y, 1 − z].
4. Hirshfeld surface analysis
In order to visualize the intermolecular interactions, a Hirshfeld surface (HS) analysis (Hirshfeld, 1977; Spackman & Jayatilaka, 2009) was carried out using Crystal Explorer 17.5 (Spackman et al., 2021). In the HS plotted over dnorm (Fig. 4), the white areas indicate contacts with distances equal to the sum of van der Waals radii, and the red and blue colours indicate distances shorter (in close contact) or longer (distinct contact) than the van der Waals radii, respectively (Venkatesan et al., 2016). The bright-red spots indicate their roles as the respective donors and/or acceptors. The shape-index surface can be used to identify characteristic packing modes, in particular, planar stacking arrangements and the presence of aromatic stacking interactions such as C—H⋯π and π–π interactions. C—H⋯π interactions are represented as red p-holes, which are related to the electron ring interactions between the CH groups and the centroid of the aromatic rings of neighbouring molecules. Fig. 5 clearly suggests that there are no C—H⋯π interactions in (I). The shape-index is a tool for visualizing π–π stacking by the presence of adjacent red and blue triangles; if there are no adjacent red and/or blue triangles, then there are no π–π interactions. Fig. 5 clearly suggests that there are π–π interactions in (I). The overall two-dimensional fingerprint plot, Fig. 6a, and those delineated into H⋯O/O⋯H, H⋯N/N⋯H, H⋯Se/Se⋯H, O⋯Se/Se⋯O, H⋯H, C⋯N/N⋯C, N⋯Se/Se⋯N, N⋯O/O⋯N, C⋯O/O⋯C, H⋯C/C⋯H, C⋯C, N⋯N, O⋯O and C⋯Se/Se⋯C (McKinnon et al., 2007) are illustrated in Fig. 6b–o, respectively, together with their relative contributions to the Hirshfeld surface. The most important interaction is H⋯O/O⋯H (Table 2) contributing 19.6% to the overall crystal packing, which is reflected in Fig. 6b as a pair of spikes with the tips at de + di = 2.20 Å. The H⋯N/N⋯H contacts (Fig. 6c) make an 11.0% contribution to the HS and have the tips at de + di = 3.46 Å. The H⋯Se/Se⋯H contacts (Fig. 6d; 8.5% contribution to the HS) have a pair of wings with the tips at de + di = 3.34 Å. The pair of spikes for the O⋯Se/Se⋯O contacts (Table 2 and Fig. 6e), contributing 8.2% to the HS, have the tips at de + di = 3.14 Å. The H⋯H interactions (Fig. 6f) contribute 7.4% to the HS with the tip at de = di = 1.12 Å. The C⋯N/N⋯C (Fig. 6g), N⋯Se/Se⋯N (Table 2 and Fig. 6h) and N⋯O/O ⋯N (Table 2 and Fig. 6i) contacts contribute 7.3%, 7.2% and 6.9%, respectively, to the HS and are viewed as pairs of spikes with the tips at de + di = 3.26, 3.08 and 3.04 Å, respectively. The C⋯O/ O⋯C contacts (Fig. 6j) make 6.4% contribution to the HS with the central point at de = di = 1.72 Å. In the absence of C—H⋯π interactions, the H⋯C/C⋯H contacts, contributing 5.9% to the overall crystal packing, are reflected in Fig. 6k with the tips at de + di = 3.46 Å. The C⋯C contacts (Fig. 6l) contributing 5.1% to the HS have a bullet-shaped distribution of points with the tip at de = di = 1.69Å. Finally, the N⋯N (Table 2 and Fig. 6m), O⋯O (Fig. 6n) and C⋯Se/Se⋯C (Fig. 6o) contacts with 3.3%, 2.1% and 1.1% contributions, respectively, to the HS have very low densities.

The nearest neighbour coordination environment of a molecule can be determined from the colour patches on the HS based on how close to other molecules they are. The Hirshfeld surface representations with the function dnorm plotted onto the surface are shown for the H⋯O/O⋯H, H⋯N/N⋯H and H⋯Se/Se⋯H interactions in Fig. 7a–c, respectively.
The Hirshfeld surface analysis confirms the importance of H-atom contacts in establishing the packing. The large number of H⋯O/O⋯H, H⋯N/N⋯H and H⋯Se/Se⋯H interactions suggest that van der Waals interactions and hydrogen bonding play the major roles in the crystal packing (Hathwar et al., 2015).
5. Crystal voids
The strength of the crystal packing is important for determining the response to an applied mechanical force. If the crystal packing results in significant voids, the molecules are not tightly packed and a small amount of applied external mechanical force may easily break the crystal. To check the mechanical stability of the crystal, a void analysis was performed by adding up the electron densities of the spherically symmetric atoms contained in the et al., 2011). The void surface is defined as an isosurface of the procrystal electron density and is calculated for the whole where the void surface meets the boundary of the and capping faces are generated to create an enclosed volume. The volume of the crystal voids (Fig. 8a–c) and the percentage of free space in the are calculated as 25.60 Å3 and 3.73%, respectively. Thus, the crystal packing appears compact and the mechanical stability should be substantial.
(Turner6. Database survey
A survey conducted of the Cambridge Structural Database (CSD, Version 5.45, last updated September 2024; Groom et al., 2016) indicates that two molecules are similar to the title compound (I): (rac)-4-methyl-4-nitro-2,1,3-benzoselena-diazol-5(4H)-one, C7H5N3O3Se (CSD refcode JURLAJ; Tian et al., 1993) and 5-nitro-2,1,3-benzoselenadiazole, C6H3N3O2Se (CSD refcode DOBWUQ; Aliyeva et al., 2023).
7. Synthesis and crystallization
3-Nitrobenzene-1,2-diamine (10 mmol) and selenium dioxide (10 mmol) were dissolved in 25 ml of dichloromethane and stirred for 1 h at ambient temperature, and further refluxed for 1 h (Georges et al., 2024). After cooling to room temperature, the solvent was evaporated under reduced pressure to give the reaction product. Crystals suitable for X-ray analysis were obtained by slow evaporation of a methanol solution. Yield 82% (based on SeO2), yellow powder soluble in methanol, ethanol and DMSO.

Geometry. All esds (except the esd in the dihedral angle between two l.s. planes) are estimated using the full covariance matrix. The cell esds are taken into account individually in the estimation of esds in distances, angles and torsion angles; correlations between esds in cell parameters are only used when they are defined by crystal symmetry. An approximate (isotropic) treatment of cell esds is used for estimating esds involving l.s. planes. |
