(E)-3-(2-Chloro-3,3,3-trifluoroprop-1-enyl)-2,2-dimethyl-N-p-tolylcyclopropanecarboxamide

Abstract

There are two molecules in the asymmetric unit of the title compound, C16H17ClF3NO. The benzene ring in each molecule makes a dihedral angle of 66.6 (3)° [116.3 (4)° in the second molecule] with the plane of the cyclopropane ring. The F atoms of the CF3 groups are disordered equally over two positions. The amide hydrogen is linked with the amide oxygen in another molecule by an intermolecular N—H...O hydrogen bond. The packing can be described as a dimeric arrangement of molecules linked through N—H...O hydrogen bonds.
