Description
Summary:The title organoselenium compound, C19H13ClO3Se {systematic name: 2-[(4-chlorophenyl)selanyl]-2H,3H,4H,5H,6H-naphtho[1,2-b]pyran-5,6-dione}, has the substituted 2-pyranyl ring in a half-chair conformation with the methylene-C atom bound to the methine-C atom being the flap atom. The dihedral angle between the two aromatic regions of the molecule is 9.96 (9)° and indicates a step-like conformation. An intramolecular Se...O interaction of 2.8122 (13) Å is noted. In the crystal, π–π contacts between naphthyl rings [inter-centroid distance = 3.7213 (12) Å] and between naphthyl and chlorobenzene rings [inter-centroid distance = 3.7715 (13) Å], along with C—Cl...π(chlorobenzene) contacts, lead to supramolecular layers parallel to the ab plane, which are connected into a three-dimensional architecture via methylene-C—H...O(carbonyl) interactions. The contributions of these and other weak contacts to the Hirshfeld surface is described.
