Abstract
Nitrobenzene derivatives pack in two main motifs: stacks [see Andre, F oces-Foces, Cane & Martinez-Ripoll (1997). Acta Cryst. B53, 984-995] a nd 'pseudo-herringbone' together account for some 61.5% of the structu res classified as BCLASS = 15 by the Cambridge Structural Database. Se veral geometrical parameters allow the classification of the 'pseudo-h erringbone' category into four main motifs. Weak interactions appear t o play an important role in this packing mode.
