| Summary: | The crystal structure and the improved synthesis of the title compound (<b>1</b>) are presented. Treatment of 5,10-disilyldibenzo[<i>a</i>,<i>e</i>]pentalenes (<b>2a</b> and <b>2b</b>) with iodine chloride (ICl) readily provided <b>1</b> in good yields. Recrystallization from a dichloromethane/hexane solution afforded single crystals suitable for X-ray diffraction studies. In the packing structure, iodine···iodine interactions classified as type II halogen bonding were found, forming the zigzag I…I chains along the <i>ac</i>-plane. |
