Abstract

The weak electrostatic and dispersive forces between C([delta]+)-F([delta]-) and H([delta]+)-C([delta]-) are at the borderline of the hydrogen-bond phenomenon and are poorly directional and further deformed in the presence of other dominant interactions, e.g. C-H...[pi]. The title compound, C6H4F2, Z' = 2, forms one-dimensional tapes along two homodromic C-H...F hydrogen bonds. The one-dimensional tapes are connected into corrugated two-dimensional sheets by further bi- or trifrucated C-H...F hydrogen bonds. Packing in the third dimension is controlled by C-H...[pi] interactions.
