Abstract
The title compound, C12H8BCl3O2·C4H8O, crystallizes as a tetra-hydro-furan monosolvate. The boronic acid group adopts a syn-anti conformation and is significantly twisted along the carbon-boron bond by 69.2 (1)°, due to considerable steric hindrance from the 2',6'-di-chloro-phenyl group that is located ortho to the boronic acid substituent. The phenyl rings of the biphenyl are almost perpendicular to one another, with a dihedral angle of 87.9 (1)° between them. In the crystal, adjacent mol-ecules are linked via O-H⋯O inter-actions to form centrosymmetric dimers with R 2 (2)(8) motifs, which have recently been shown to be energetically very favourable. The hy-droxy groups are in an anti conformation and are also engaged in hydrogen-bonding inter-actions with the O atom of the tetra-hydro-furan solvent mol-ecule. Cl⋯Cl halogen-bonding inter-actions [Cl⋯Cl = 3.464 (1) Å] link neigbouring dimers into chains running along [010]. Further aggregation occurs due to an additional Cl⋯Cl halogen bond [Cl⋯Cl = 3.387 (1) Å].
