Abstract

Crystal structures of three fluorinated benzophenones were determined via single crystal X-ray diffraction. The occurrence of the C–F?H, F?F, C–F?πF interactions in these crystal structures indicates that a base limit of fluorine atoms in the molecule seems to be necessary for successful competition with the hydrogen type of interactions.
