Abstract

Crystal structures of a series of p-halogenated 6,6-diphenylfulvenes 2–5 are reported and comparatively discussed including the known structure of the non-halogenate parent compound 1. The molecular structures show twisted conformations of the plane aryl and fulvene subunits against each other, rather unaffected by the different halogen substituents. The packing structures exclusively involve C–H···X (X = F, Cl, π) contacts while Hal···Hal and π-stacking interactions do not occur.
