Conclusion
The study reports the crystal structure of bis(4-amino-2-chlorophenyl) disulfide, highlighting its S—S bond and intermolecular hydrogen bonding.
Supporting Evidence
- The S-S bond distance of 2.0671 Å is within the normal range for acyclic disulfides.
- The C-S-S-C torsion angle of -84.2° is similar to that found in other disulfide compounds.
- Intermolecular N-H...S hydrogen bonds may stabilize the crystal structure.
Takeaway
This study looks at a chemical compound and describes how its atoms are arranged in a crystal. It shows that the compound has a special bond and some interactions that help hold the structure together.
Methodology
The compound was synthesized from an aqueous solution of 3,4-dichloronitrobenzene and sodium sulfhydrate, followed by recrystallization.
Limitations
The determination of the absolute structure had low Friedel pair coverage.
