Halogen⋯halogen contacts for the stabilization of a new polymorph of 9,10-dichloroanthracene

A new polymorph of 9,10-dichloroanthracene (9,10-DCA) namely as γ form, was obtained. The crystal structure of the γ polymorphic system showed an orthorhombic P212121 space group with a = 3.8957(2) Å, b = 15.9383(5) Å, c = 17.3107(7) Å, α = β = γ = 90°, while the other polymorphs, α and β, crystalli...
