4-(2,6-Dibromo-4-fluoroanilino)pent-3-en-2-one

Abstract

The title enaminoketone, C11H10Br2FNO, has a roughly planar pentenone chain; the maximum displacement of an atom from the pentenone plane is 0.071 (4) Å. The dihedral angle between the benzene ring and the pentenone unit is 77.2 (1)°. Intermolecular C—H...Br and C—H...O interactions, as well as an intramolecular N—H...O interaction, are observed. In both methyl groups, each H atom is disordered equally over two sites.
