3,5-Dinitrobenzoyl chloride
Abstract
The carbonyl chloride group in the title compound, C7H3ClN2O5, is disordered over two orientations with occupancies of 0.505 (5) and 0.495 (5). The molecule is approximately planar, the dihedral angle between the carbonyl chloride plane and benzene ring being 9.6 (4)° in the major disorder component and 7.1 (4)° in the minor component. The nitro group at the 5-position is twisted, forming a dihedral angle of 6.7 (4)°. The crystal packing is stabilized by C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds.
