Benzhydryl phenyl sulfone

Abstract

In the title compound, C19H16O2S, the sulfur-bound phenyl group is approximately parallel to one of the two phenyl rings of the benzhydryl group, making a dihedral angle of 12.53 (10)°, and forms a dihedral angle of 41.25 (9)° with the other phenyl ring. In the crystal, weak C—H...O interactions form a two-dimensional network propagating along the bc plane.
