Structure of ω-bromo-p-chloroacetophenone

The crystal structure of ω-bromo-p-chloroacetophenone, C₃H₆0CIBr, has been determined by a single-crystal X-ray study. The compound is orthorhombic with unit-cell dimensions, a = 9.649(1), b = 21.871(4) and c = 4.174(5)Å. The space group is P2₁2₁2₁ and the density of the compound was found to be 1.75 g cm ^{- 3} whereas the calculated density with four formula units in the unit cell is 1.76 g cm ^{- 3}. Three-dimensional data were collected from equi-inclination Weissenberg photographs using CuKα radiation. The structure was determined by the heavy-atom method and refined by the full-matrix least-squares method to R = 0.084. Bond lengths and angles have been found to be in agreement with the corresponding literature data.
