Crystal structure of 2-(4-chlorophenyl)-4-(1H-indol-3-yl)-6-phenylpyridine-3-carbonitrile
Abstract
In the title compound, C26H16ClN3, the dihedral angles between the central pyridine ring and the pendant phenyl, chlorobenzene and indole rings are 18.52 (12), 48.97 (11) and 21.20 (10)°, respectively. An intramolecular C—H...Nc (c = cyanide) hydrogen bond occurs. In the crystal, inversion dimers linked by pairs of N—H...Nc hydrogen bonds generate R22(16) loops.
