ABSTRACTThe charge transport properties critically depend on the degree of ordering of the chains in the solid state as well as on the density of chemical or structural defects. In general, goodelectronic performance requires strong electronic coupling between adjace nt molecules in the solid-state that yield strong intermolecular π-overlap. Herein, we newly designed and synthesized organic semiconducting materials having both aryl (Ar) and perfluoroaryl (FAr) as substituents for organic electronics along with molecular packing control. Regarding this molecular design, we hypothesized and expected that the Ar and FAr substituents would induce well-defined π-π stacking structure of charge transport units for high performance organic electronics devices.

The two title compounds are isomers of C6H3ClN2containing a pyridine ring, a nitrile group, and a chloro substituent. The molecules of each compound pack together in the solid state with offset face-to-face π-stacking, and intermolecular C—H...Nnitrileand C—H...Npyridineinteractions. 4-Chloropyridine-2-carbonitrile, (I), exhibits pairwise centrosymmetric head-to-head C—H...Nnitrileand C—H...Npyridineinteractions, forming one-dimensional chains, which are π-stacked in an offset face-to-face fashion. The intermolecular packing of the isomeric 6-chloropyridine-2-carbonitrile, (II), which differs only in the position of the chloro substituent on the pyridine ring, exhibits head-to-tail C—H...Nnitrileand C—H...Npyridineinteractions, forming two-dimensional sheets which are π-stacked in an offset face-to-face fashion. In contrast to (I), the offset face-to-face π-stacking in (II) is formed between molecules with alternating orientations of the chloro and nitrile substituents.

A novel activated prochiral ketoimine, (E)-acetophenoneO-diphenylphosphoryl oxime, C20H18NO2P, with an electron-withdrawing substituent on the imine N atom similar to other prochiral ketoimines, has been synthesized and the X-ray crystal stucture determined. The molecules pack together in the solid stateviaweak intermolecular C—H...O interactions and both face-to-face and edge-to-face π-stacking interactions.
