Abstract
In the title pentanedinitrile derivative, C11H9IN2, the iodophenyl group is connected at the 3-position. The central propylene chain of the pentanedinitrile moiety contains one gauche conformation as a result of steric repulsion with the phenyl ring. Intermolecular close contacts in the crystal comprise a weak Csp 3—H...N hydrogen bond and a C—I...N halogen bond.
Highlights
The title compound, C11H9IN2, is a pentanedinitrile derivative, in which the iodophenyl group is connected at the 3-position
Pentanedinitrile derivatives are used as precursors in the synthesis of 2,6-diaminopyridines, which are used as raw materials for insecticides (Kato et al, 1989)
Steric repulsion between the C1—N1 cyano group and the phenyl ring is thought to result in the gauche conformation
Summary
In the title pentanedinitrile derivative, C11H9IN2, the iodophenyl group is connected at the 3-position.
