N,N′-Bis(4-chloro-3-fluorobenzylidene)ethane-1,2-diamine

Abstract

The asymmetric unit of the title Schiff base compound, C16H12Cl2F2N2, contains one half of the centrosymmetric molecule. Molecules related by translation along the a axis form stacks with short intermolecular C...C distances of 3.429 (3) Å. The crystal packing also exhibits short intermolecular Cl...F contacts of 3.087 (1) Å.
