Abstract

The title compound, C6Cl10, cystallizes in a nearly C2-symmetrical gauche conformation. Both trichloro­vinyl groups are nearly planar [Cl—C—C—Cl torsion angles = −178.47 (12) and −179.93 (11)°] and the lengths of their C—Cl bonds increase from the terminal trans and cis C—Cl bonds to the inter­nal bonds. The Cl—C—Cl bond angles of the terminal dichloro­methyl­ene units are compressed to 111.75 (11) and 111.40 (11)°.
