Abstract

In the title mol­ecule, C9H4I2OS2, the two five-membered rings form a dihedral angle of 64.2 (2)°. In the crystal, weak inter­molecular C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds link the mol­ecules into layers parallel to the ab plane. The crystal packing exhibits short C⋯I contacts of 3.442 (5) Å between the mol­ecules of adjacent layers.

Comment

The title compound, (I), is an important organic intermediate for the synthesis of conjugated polymers for organic solar cell applications (Brzezinski & Reynolds, 2002; Cheng et al., 2009). In (I) (Fig. 1), two five-membered rings form a dihedral angle of 64.2 (2)°. Weak intermolecular C—H···O hydrogen bonds link the molecules into layers parallel to ab plane. The crystal packing exhibits short C···I contacts of 3.442 (5) Å between the molecules from the neighbouring layers.

Experimental

The title compound was synthesized according to the reported method by Brzezinski & Reynolds (2002). After being dissolved in the mixture of MeOH-Hexane (1:3) for seversal days, colourless crystals suitable for single-crystal X-ray diffraction were obtained.

Refinement

All hydrogen atoms were positioned geometrically (C—H = 0.93 Å) and allowed to ride on their parent atoms, with Uiso(H) = 1.2 Ueq(C).

Special details

Geometry. All e.s.d.'s (except the e.s.d. in the dihedral angle between two l.s. planes) are estimated using the full covariance matrix. The cell e.s.d.'s are taken into account individually in the estimation of e.s.d.'s in distances, angles and torsion angles; correlations between e.s.d.'s in cell parameters are only used when they are defined by crystal symmetry. An approximate (isotropic) treatment of cell e.s.d.'s is used for estimating e.s.d.'s involving l.s. planes.
Refinement. Refinement of F2 against ALL reflections. The weighted R-factor wR and goodness of fit S are based on F2, conventional R-factors R are based on F, with F set to zero for negative F2. The threshold expression of F2 > σ(F2) is used only for calculating R-factors(gt) etc. and is not relevant to the choice of reflections for refinement. R-factors based on F2 are statistically about twice as large as those based on F, and R- factors based on ALL data will be even larger.
