Abstract

The crystal structure of dichlorofluoroacetamide has been determined from three-dimensional counter data, and refined by full-matrix least-squares techniques. The crystals belong to the monoclinic space groupP21 /c and have the unit-cell parametersa = 10.207(4),b = 5.729(2),c = 9.971(4) Å, β = 105.21(8) °, andD x = 1.72 g cm-3. The structural refinement gave a finalR factor of 0.067 from 440 observed reflections. The compound has nearly equal disorder of the -Cl2F moiety about the C-C bond axis with occupancy factors of the two fragments being 0.48 and 0.52.
