• Of the 128 structures considered, there are 10 structures which have Se atom coordinated to a metal ion. These enter into 17 shortest contacts. For nucleophiles, there are 24 structures containing 27 shortest contacts

• There are 25 structures which give rise to a total of 34 pairs of Se…Se interaction. Of these, 13 pairs belong to type III and the remaining 21 pairs to type I and II pairing. The shortest Se…Se contact occurs in the structure of 1,3-diselenazolidine-2,4-dione (Ref Code: BOJCOS)12

• By looking at intermolecular distances up to about 5 Å, Nyburg and Faerman14 have suggested that Se in >C=Se chemical groups could be anisotropic due to “polar flattening”
