8-Chloro-11-(4-methylpiperazin-1-yl)dibenzo[b,f]-1,4-selenazepine

The title compound is an original potential drug analogue of clozapine (C₁₈H₁₉ClN₄), a well known atypical antipsychotic compound. The crystal structure is isostructural with that of C₁₈H₁₈ClN₃S published previously. The selenoazepine ring adopts a boat conformation and the piperazine ring has a normal chair conformation.
