Comparison of the X-ray crystallography of undecafluorocyclohexane, C(6)HF(11), with that of dodecafluorocyclohexane, C(6)F(12).
A comparison of undecafluorocyclohexane and dodecafluorocyclohexane shows that both exist at 23 degrees in face-centred cubic cells with edges a(0) = 10.00 +/- 0.02 A for C(6)HF(11) and a(0) = 10.11 +/- 0.02 A for C(6)F(12). The X-ray data are consistent with internal rotation of the molecules or statistical randomness of the molecules in the compounds.
