Abstract
4,4′-Diiodobenzophenone crystallizes in the orthorhombic space groupCcc 2:a = 28.079,b = 7.413,c = 6.050Å,Z = 4. The structure has been determined by a combination of Patterson and direct methods with MoKα diffractometer data and refined by full-matrix least squares toR = 0.047 for 1512 reflections. The molecule possesses Crystallographic two-fold symmetry. The phosphorescence emission spectra of 4,4′-diiodobenzophenone are discussed in the light of structural data and spectroscopic data of several related benzophenones.
