2,7-Diselenatricyclo[6.2.0.03.6]deca-1,3-diene-4,5,9,10- tetraone, C8O4Se2, was prepared from 1,2-diselenosquarate and squaric acid dichloride. Its crystal structure and the structure of the already known sulfur analogue C8O4S 2 were determined (C8O4S2: orthorhombic, Pca21, a = 1413.64(2), b = 599.850(9), c = 968.8(1) pm; C8O4Se2: orthorhombic, Pnnm, a = 415.46(2), b = 894.29(5), c = 1160.14(7) pm). The structures are not isotypic and show a different packing of the molecules whose symmetry deviate only slightly from D2h. In the four-membered C4 rings the C-C bonds represent one single bond, one double bond and two slightly shortened single bonds. The C4 rings are thus to be considered as cyclobutene-dione fragments. The vigorous exothermic decomposition of the compounds that occurs on heating to 220 to 240 °C shows that both are energetic materials. The explosions are accompanied by a heat evolution of -192 kJ/mol for C8O 4S2 and -224 kJ/mol for C8O4Se 2. Performing the decomposition of C8O4S 2 in a closed autoclave leaves a residue of the composition "C6S" which was examined by transmission electron microscopy techniques and shown to consist mainly of amorphous carbon. This thermal behaviour is limiting the utilization of C8O 4S2 and C8O4Se2 as precursors for the syntheses of OC3S and the yet unknown OC 3Se via FVP. The formation of OC3S could be proven by the reaction of the trapped, slightly yellow product (evaporation at 200 °C, pyrolysis at 500 °C, trapping at -196 °C) with aniline which yielded thiomalonic acid dianilide, of which the crystal structure was determined (monoclinic, C2/c, a = 2814.8(16), b = 1201.7(8), c = 809.2(4) pm, β = 91.88(4)°, V = 2736(3) · 106 pm3). The mass spectrum of C8O4Se2 shows the strongest signal for OC3Se+, and FVP experiments (evaporation at 220 °C, pyrolysis at 650 °C, trapping at -75 °C) yielded small amounts of a bright yellow material which rapidly converted into a black polymer.
