Crystal structure of 4-chloro-2-iodoaniline

Abstract

In the crystal structure of the title compound, C6H5ClIN, the amino group engages in N—H...N hydrogen bonding, creating [100] chains. A Cl...I contact is observed [3.7850 (16) Å]. The parallel planes of neigbouring molecules reveal highly offset π-stacking characterized by a centroid–centroid distance of 4.154 (1), a centroid-to-plane distance of 3.553 (3) and ring-offset slippage of 2.151 (6) Å.
