The crystal structure of C14H12Br2O reveals a near-planar conformation between its aromatic rings. Bromine atoms are positioned on the same side, with only weak van der Waals forces observed in the solid state.

Area of Science:

  • Crystallography
  • Organic Chemistry
  • Solid-State Chemistry

Background:

  • Understanding the three-dimensional arrangement of atoms in organic molecules is crucial for predicting their properties.
  • Crystal structure analysis provides precise details about molecular geometry and intermolecular interactions.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To determine the crystal structure of the compound C14H12Br2O.
  • To analyze the dihedral angle between aromatic rings and the positioning of bromine atoms.
  • To investigate intermolecular interactions in the crystalline state.

Main Methods:

  • Single-crystal X-ray diffraction was employed to obtain the crystal structure data.
  • The molecular structure was analyzed to determine bond lengths, bond angles, and dihedral angles.
