(E)-1-(4,4′′-Difluoro-5′-methoxy-1,1′:3′,1′′-terphenyl-4′-yl)-3-(4-methoxyphenyl)prop-2-en-1-one
Abstract
The title compound, C29H22F2O3, is a meta-terphenyl derivative featuring a Michael-system-derived substituent with an E-configured C=C function. In the crystal, C—H...O and C—H...F contacts connect the molecules into planes parallel to (101). The shortest centroid–centroid distance between two aromatic systems is 3.7169 (7) Å and is apparent between the terminal benzene ring of the Michael-system-derived substituent and its symmetry-generated equivalent.
