subject

description

The title compound, C33H3F20N3O4, is a highly fluorinated organic imide that was isolated as an unexpected product from the reaction of 2,6-diaminopyridine with 2,3,4,5,6-pentafluorobenzoyl chloride in a 1:2 molar ratio. The molecule is located on a twofold axis and one of its symmetry-independent 2,3,4,5,6-pentafluorobenzoyl groups is disordered over two sets of sites, the occupancy of the major component being 0.773 (3). In the major component, the dihedral angle between the perfluorophenyl groups is 63.64 (10)°, and these groups form dihedral angles of 67.14 (7) and 21.1 (2)° with the pyridine core. Short intermolecular C—H...O and C—H...N contacts are found in the crystal structure.
