2,3,5,6-Tetrafluoro-1,4-bis({[(thiophen-2-yl)methylidene]amino}methyl)benzene
Abstract
In the title compound, C18H12F4N2S2, a bis-thiophenyl Schiff base ligand with a perifluorinated aromatic core, the complete molecule is generated by crystallographic inversion symmetry. The thiophene and tetrafluorinated benzene rings are oriented at a dihedral angle of 77.38 (4)°. The crystal structure exhibits C—H...F hydrogen bonds, resulting in supramolecular chains along the c-axis direction.
