Non-covalent interactions in solid <i>p</i>-C₆F₄Cl₂ and C₆F₅Cl.

ABSTRACT: This study investigates the crystal structure and phase behaviour of two organofluorine aromatic compounds, para-dichlorotetrafluorobenzene (p-C₆F₄Cl₂) and chloropentafluorobenzene (C₆F₅Cl), with a focus on solid-state phase transitions and non-covalent interactions. The thermal and structural properties of these compounds were investigated using a combination of differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), variable-temperature powder X-ray diffraction (VT-PXRD), and single-crystal X-ray diffraction (SXD). While p-C₆F₄Cl₂ showed no solid-state phase transitions, C₆F₅Cl exhibited three solid-state phases, including a reversible solid-solid transition at low temperat
