Abstract Herein we report the synthesis and X-ray crystallographic study of a per(meta-t-butyl) substituted trityl fluoride in order to explore possible intermolecular F F interactions, as inspired by the recent work of Schreiner et al. on close H contacts. Instead of proximate F atoms, we uncovered an unusual ordering effect caused by an interaction between the polar fluorine and nearby C H bonds, a result that may carry some interest in regards to fluorinated compounds’ interactions with enzymes.
