2,6-di-tert-butylphenol (2.30 mol) and ammonium thiocyanate (4.83 mol) in methanol (1200 mL) was stirred with cooling at 273 K. While the temperature was kept in the range from 273 K to 283 K, chlorine gas was slowly bubbled through the mixture for about 1 h, during which the reaction mixture turned to yellow colour. Ammonia was then bubbled through the mixture for about 1.5 h, keeping the reaction mixture in the temperature range from 273 K to 283 K. The reaction was stirred for one more h at 273 K, poured into 2 L of cold distilled water and refrigerated overnight. The aqueous phase was decanted and the solid was taken up in methanol, precipitated by addition of water, filtered and dried. The resulting gummy yellow solid was recrystallised from methanol and dried in vacuum to yield the product as a white powder. The crystals were dissolved in methanol and recrystallised to yield colourless block-shaped crystals of the title compound.
The other hydrogen atoms were placed in calculated positions with and refined in the riding model with fixed isotropic displacement parameters [Uiso(H) = 1.2Ueq(C)].

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 F2 against ALL reflections. The weighted R-factor wR and goodness of fit S are based on F2, conventional R-factors R are based on F, with F set to zero for negative F2. The threshold expression of F2 > σ(F2) is used only for calculating R-factors(gt) etc. and is not relevant to the choice of reflections for refinement. R-factors based on F2 are statistically about twice as large as those based on F, and R- factors based on ALL data will be even larger. |

The synthesis of 2-tert-butyl-2,4,5,6,6-pentachlorocyclohex-3-enone and derivatives has been studied (Hartshorn et al., 1992). Here we describe recystallisation and structural characteristics of the target compound. In the title compound, C10H11Cl5O (I), the cyclohexene ring adopts a half-chair conformation (Fig. 1). The tert-butyl group is attached in a pseudo-axial position. Torsion angle between the tert-butyl group and the carbonyl group is O1—C1—C1—C7 is 39.5 (3) °. The molecule (I) possess two stereogenic centres at C2 and C5 carbon atoms. The crystal of (I) is racemate and consists of enantiomeric pairs with the relative configuration 2S*,5R*. The crystal packing is realised by van der Waals interactions.
