1-(2-Fluorophenyl)-6,7-dimethoxyisochroman

Abstract

In the title compound, C17H17FO3, the benzene ring of the isochroman unit is inclined at 84.96 (7)° to the fluorobenzene ring plane, and the pyran ring adopts a half-boat conformation. In the crystal structure, C—H...O hydrogen bonds link molecules into rows along the c axis, while C—H...O interactions and C—H...F hydrogen bonds to the fluorine acceptor stack the molecules down the b axis. In addition, the crystal structure exhibits a weak C—H...π interaction between a methyl H atom of the methoxy group and the dimethoxybenzene ring of an adjacent molecule.
