| Description |
Pentacyano-trifluoromethyl benzene was synthesized using a novel technique. Before isolation, it was noted that plate like crystals had formed leading to study regarding the ability of acetic acid to co-crystallize with pentacyanotrifluoromethyl benzene. The crystal structure of acetic acid with pentacyanotrifluoromethyl benzene was obtained and analyzed. This analysis most demonstrates that there is an anionic hole in the center of the pentacyano-trifluoromethyl benzene ring, which is particularly important, as it demonstrates that pentacyano-trifluoromethyl benzene has the potential to form a new class of charge-transfer complexes. Azulene derivatives are a severely underexplored subset of organic heterocyclic aromatic compounds with unique properties. Though p stacking of many polycyclic aromatic compounds and cyanoaromatics have been reported, this research has not been completed regarding azulene and azulene derivatives. Crystal structures of 4,6,8- trimethylazulene with pentacyano-trifluoromethyl benzene and tetrafluoroterephthalonitrile, were obtained and analyzed. A crystal structure of guaiazulene with pentacyano-trifluoromethyl benzene were obtained and analyzed. While platinum compounds have been identified as being useful in healthcare, the synthesis of ligands and analysis of their chemical properties has slowed. Though p stacking of transition metal complexes with fluorinated aromatic cyanocarbons has been studied, this field is still largely underexplored. A crystal structures for Benzoquinoline (Pt)2,2,6,6-tetramethyl-3,5-heptanedione and tetrafluoroterephthalonitrile was obtained and analyzed. |
