(E)-1-(4,4′′-Difluoro-5′-methoxy-1,1′:3′,1′′-terphenyl-4′-yl)-3-(4-nitrophenyl)prop-2-en-1-one

Abstract

In the title compound, C28H19F2NO4, a polysubstituted terphenyl derivative bearing a Michael system, the C=C double bond has an E configuration. Two C—H...F contacts connect molecules into inversion dimers. In addition, a C–H...π as well as a C–F...π contact can be identified. The shortest centroid–centroid distance between two aromatic rings is 3.9535 (8) Å, between one of the para-fluorobenzene rings and its symmetry-generated equivalent.
