In the molecule of the title compound, C11H10INO2, the phthalimide group is
not exactly planar. The dihedral angle between the mean planes of the phth
alimide and iodopropyl moieties is 76.6 (2)degrees. The structure is stabil
ized by intermolecular C-H ... O and C-H ... I interactions, and an intermo
lecular I ... O interaction of 3.571 (4) Angstrom, the latter linking the m
olecules into infinite chains.
