Crystal structure and Hirshfeld surface analysis of (E)-1-[2,2-di-bromo-1-(2-nitro-phen-yl)ethen-yl]-2-(4-fluoro-phen-yl)diazene

Abstract

In the title compound, C₁₄H₈Br₂FN₃O₂, the nitro-substituted benzene ring and the 4-fluoro-phenyl ring form a dihedral angle of 65.73 (7)°. In the crystal, mol-ecules are linked into chains by C-H⋯O hydrogen bonds running parallel to the c-axis direction. The crystal packing is consolidated by C-F⋯π inter-actions and π-π stacking inter-actions, and short Br⋯O [2.9828 (13) Å] contacts are observed. The Hirshfeld surface analysis of the crystal structure indicates that the most important contributions to the crystal packing are from H⋯H (17.4%), O⋯H/H⋯O (16.3%), Br⋯H/H⋯Br (15.5%), Br⋯C/C⋯Br (10.1%) and F⋯H/H⋯F (8.1%) contacts.
