3,3′,5,5′-Tetranitrobiphenyl
The title compound, C12H6N4O8, is a biphenyl system that was synthesized as a building block for a new series of antimalarial compounds. The aromatic rings are oriented at a dihedral angle of 45.5 (2)°, and intermolecular short O...O contacts form a chain along the b axis....

The title compound, C12H6N4O8, is a biphenyl system that was synthesized as a building block for a new series of antimalarial compounds. The aromatic rings are oriented at a dihedral angle of 45.5 (2)°, and intermolecular short O...O contacts form a chain along the b axis. The strength of the interactions involved in this chain cause one of the rings to be slightly distorted, with the torsion angle between the nitro groups being 23.4 (2)°, whereas, in the other ring, both nitro systems are parallel, forming an angle of 9.6 (2)° with the plane of the aromatic ring to which they are bound. Furthermore, the three ring C atoms around the ring–ring linkage belong to a plane inclined by 4.5 (1)° in relation to the plane containing the other three C atoms, i.e. (NO2–)C—C—C(NO2). This distortion of the ring causes uncommonly short intermolecular O...O [3.038 (2) Å] and O...C [3.000 (4) and 3.214 (1) Å] contacts. |
