2-(4-Chlorophenyl)-2-oxoethyl 4-hydroxybenzoate

Abstract

The title compound, C15H11ClO4, consists of a chloro­benzene ring and a phenol ring which are linked together by a 1,4-dioxo-2-oxabutane-1,4-diyl group. The dihedral angle between the chloro­benzene and phenol rings is 65.70 (11)°. In the crystal, inter­molecular O—H⋯O hydrogen bonds link the mol­ecules into chains along [010].

2-(4-Bromophenyl)-2-oxoethyl 4-methylbenzoate

“…The dihedral angle formed between the toluene and bromobenzene rings is 80.70 (7)%. The bond lengths (Allen et al, 1987) and angles are within normal ranges and are comparable to these closely related structure (Fun et al, 2011).…”

Synthesis and Crystallographic Insight into the Structural Aspects of Some Novel Adamantane-Based Ester Derivatives

“…The existence of the adamantane moiety in the present compounds not only reduces the weak intermolecular π…π or C-H…π interactions as compared to phenacyl benzoates, it also limits the packing patterns of adamantyl-based ester derivatives as indicated by the high occurrence of isostructures. [43] 63.85 EVEVEH [44] 63.04 CIQNEW [45] 64.07 GARCEJ [46] 65.80 In the investigation of the crystal structural similarity among the current compounds, there are four pairs of compounds (2a/2f, 2c/2g, 2h/2k and 2d/2n) found, and each pair is crystallized in the same space group with similar lattice constants, which are two main characteristics of 3D structural similarity. Indeed, these four pairs of compounds show isostructural relationships with a similar packing pattern, as shown in their overlaid crystal structure diagrams (Figures 3-6, respectively).…”
