Abstract: 6,13-Dihydropentacene and pentacene cocrystallize in a ratio of 2:1, i.e. C₂₂H₁₆·0.5C₂₂H₁₄, during vapour transport of commercial pentacene in a gas flow. The crystal structure is monoclinic, space group P2₁/n, and contains one dihydropentacene molecule and half a pentacene molecule in the asymmetric unit.
