Abstract

The title compound, C(24)BBrF(12)N(6) or Br-F(12)BsubPc (BsubPc is boronsubphtalocyanine), has a bowl-shaped structure with an approximate mol-ecular C(3v) symmetry characteristic of boronsubphthalocyanine compounds. In the crystal, mol-ecules are arranged in one-dimensional columns and the boron-subphthalocyanine units within each column are offset and angled in a bowl-to-ligand packing arrangement such that the axial Br atom rests in the aromatic concaved bowl of the neighboring subphthalocyanine with an inter-molecular Br⋯B distance of 3.721 (3) Å.
