In the title compound, C28H21Cl, the dihedral angle between the two fluorene ring systems is 71.97 (4)°. There is an intramolecular C-H
Cl hydrogen bond. In the crystal structure, the centroid-to-centroid distance between stacked fluorene ring systems is ca 4.22 Å, which indicates that there are no
-
stacking interactions between them.
All chemicals were of analytic grade quality obtained from commercial sources and used as received, unless stated otherwise. To a solution of fluorene (1.66 g, 10 mmol) in dry THF (40 ml) was added a hexane solution of n-butylithium (4 ml, 2.5 M, 10 mmol) under nitrogen at -78 °C, the mixture was stirred for 1 h. A solution of PCl3 (2 mmol) in THF (10 ml) was then added. After stirring for another 1 h, the mixture was cooling slowly to room temperature, and kept stirring overnight. To the mixture was added dichloromethane (20 ml) and stirred for 1 h. The solvent was evaporated under reduced pressure. The crude products were purified by columnchromatography (silica gel) using n-hexane/dichloromethane as eluent. The title compound was obtained as white solid in 31% yield. Colorless single crystals were grown from a CH2Cl2 solution of the compound.
H atoms were positioned geometrically and treated as riding, with C—H = 0.93 (aromatic), 0.97 (methylene) and 0.98 Å (methine), and refined in riding mode with Uiso(H) = 1.2Ueq(C).

Experimental. 1HNMR (500 MHz, δ in p.p.m., CDCl3): 2.90 (d, 2H, J = 5.5 Hz), 3.19 (t, 1H,J= 4.5 Hz), 3.86 (s, 2H), 6.62 (d, 2H, J = 7.0 Hz), 7.02 (t, 2H, J= 7.5 Hz), 7.19 (t, 2H, J = 7.5 Hz), 7.39 (t, 2H, J = 7.5 Hz), 7.46 (t, 2H, J = 7.5 Hz), 7.54 (d, 2H,J = 7.5 Hz), 7.67 (d, 2H, J = 7.5 Hz), 7.78 (d, 2H, J= 7.0 Hz); 13C NMR (125 MHz, δ in p.p.m., CDCl3): 40.64, 44.45, 53.35, 55.55, 119.52, 120.75, 125.06, 125.18, 126.86, 126.92, 127.66,128.74, 140.70, 141.48, 146.99, 148.22; MS (EI): calcd for C28H21Cl, 392; found: 392 (M+), 356, 191 (100), 179, 165, 152. |
Geometry. All e.s.d.'s (except the e.s.d. in the dihedral angle between two l.s. planes) are estimated using the full covariance matrix. The cell e.s.d.'s are taken into account individually in the estimation of e.s.d.'s in distances, angles and torsion angles; correlations between e.s.d.'s in cell parameters are only used when they are defined by crystal symmetry. An approximate (isotropic) treatment of cell e.s.d.'s is used for estimating e.s.d.'s involving l.s. planes. |
Refinement. Refinement of F^2^ against ALL reflections. The weighted R-factor wR and goodness of fit S are based on F^2^, conventional R-factors R are based on F, with F set to zero for negative F^2^. The threshold expression of F^2^ > σ(F^2^) is used only for calculating R-factors(gt) etc. and is not relevant to the choice of reflections for refinement. R-factors based on F^2^ are statistically about twice as large as those based on F, and R- factors based on ALL data will be even larger. |

Fluorene derivatives, have attracted much attention due to their potential utilities in organic lightemitting devices (Muller et al., 2003), organic phototransistors (Saragi et al., 2004), nonlinear optics (Kim et al., 1998) and photochromic materials (Chun et al., 2003). The title compound (hereinafter abbreviated to fmcf) is one of fluorene derivatives.
The asymmetric unit of the title compound contains one fmcf molecule (Fig. 1). The chloromethyl group is attached on the C-9 position of one fluorene ring. Two fluorene rings are linked together through a methylene carbon atom, and the dihedral angle between the two fluorene rings is 71.97 (4)°. There is intramolecular C–H···Cl hydrogen bond with distance of 3.075 (2) Å (Table 1), while the intermolecular C–H···Cl contacts are of 3.573 (2) Å, which is not viewed as C–H···Cl hydrogen bond. The centroid to centroid distance between stacked fluorene rings is ca. 4.22 Å, which is very long and prevents π···π stacking (Fig. 2). All bond lengths and angles are normal.
