Crystal structure of 4-[(3-methylbut-3-enoyl)oxy]phenyl 4-n-hexyloxybenzoate
Abstract
The structure of the title compound, C23H26O5 or CH2=C(CH3)—C(O)O—C6H4—O(O)C—C6H4—OC6H13, has been determined. The molecule is non-planar and the dihedral angle between the phenyl rings is 50.72 (4)°. The crystal packing differs from those typical for mesogenic compounds. Only a weak directional interaction of the C—H...O type combines molecules in endless chains running along the a axis.
