(Diphenylphosphoryl)(2-nitrophenyl)methanol

Abstract

In the title compound, C19H16NO4P, the dihedral angle between the mean planes of the phenyl rings bonded to the P atom is 75.4 (1)°. In the crystal, molecules are linked into chains running along the a axis by intermolecular O—H...O hydrogen bonds. Molecules are further connected into a three-dimensional array by weak C—H...O hydrogen bonds.
