H. Li and S. Jiang

Abstract: The asymmetric unit of the title compound C₁₅H₁₆IO₂⁺·CF₃CO₂^-, comprises an iodonium cation and a trifluoroacetate anion. The benzene rings are inclined at an angle of 87.76 (5)° to one another. There is evidence for strong electrostatic interactions between the I atom and two adjacent trifluoroacetate counter-ions.
