Popis: A novel tris­ubstituted arene compound bearing a penta­fluoro­sulfanyl group (SF5) has been synthesized through a regioselective ortho li­thia­tion, improved by the addition of a bidentate amine, followed by trapping with electrophilic I2. Incorporating the iodo group in 2-iodo-4-(penta­fluoro-λ6-sulfan­yl)benzo­nitrile strengthens the inter­molecular inter­action network with the cyano and penta­fluoro substituents.
The title compound, C7H3F5INS, a penta­fluoro­sulfanyl (SF5) containing arene, was synthesized from 4-(penta­fluoro­sulfan­yl)benzo­nitrile and lithium tetra­methyl­piperidide following a variation to the standard approach, which features simple and mild conditions that allow direct access to tri-substituted SF5 inter­mediates that have not been demonstrated using previous methods. The mol­ecule displays a planar geometry with the benzene ring in the same plane as its three substituents. It lies on a mirror plane perpendicular to [010] with the iodo, cyano, and the sulfur and axial fluorine atoms of the penta­fluoro­sulfanyl substituent in the plane of the mol­ecule. The equatorial F atoms have symmetry-related counterparts generated by the mirror plane. The penta­fluoro­sulfanyl group exhibits a staggered fashion relative to the ring and the two hydrogen atoms ortho to the substituent. S—F bond lengths of the penta­fluoro­sulfanyl group are unequal: the equatorial bond facing the iodo moiety has a longer distance [1.572 (3) Å] and wider angle compared to that facing the side of the mol­ecules with two hydrogen atoms [1.561 (4) Å]. As expected, the axial S—F bond is the longest [1.582 (5) Å]. In the crystal, in-plane C—H⋯F and N⋯I inter­actions as well as out-of-plane F⋯C inter­actions are observed. According to the Hirshfeld analysis, the principal inter­molecular contacts for the title compound are F⋯H (29.4%), F⋯I (15.8%), F⋯N (11.4%), F⋯F (6.0%), N⋯I (5.6%) and F⋯C (4.5%).
