Crystal structure of (E)-3-fluoro-N-((5-nitrothiophen-2-yl)methylene)aniline

Resumo

The structure of the title compound C₁₁H₇FN₂O₂S was characterized by single crystal X-ray diffraction. The compound crystallizes in the monoclinic space group P2₁/n with Z = 12, i.e. with three molecules in asymmetric unit. The molecules are not planar: the dihedral angles between the planes of thiophene and the benzene rings are 42.3(3)°, 42.0(3)°, and 48.9(2)°. In the crystal, intermolecular C–H···F interactions link the molecules through R₂² (14) ring motif. The crystal packing is also stabilized by π···π interactions.
