Abstract: | Perfluorophenanthrene and decamethylferrocene cocrystallize as a molecular adduct in monoclinic space group P21/c with a = 8.842(2), b = 11.262(1), c = 30.695(8) A?, β = 95.89(2)°, V = 3040.3(8) A?3, Z = 4. The structure was refined to R = 0.0537 for 1567 observed reflections. The perfluoroarene is twisted and chiral; the crystal is a racemate, however. |
