Crystal structure of 4-[(2E)-3-(4-methoxyphenyl)prop-2-enoyl]phenyl benzoate

Abstract

In the title compound, C23H18O4, the meth­oxy­benzene ring and attached C=C grouping are disordered over two sets of sites in a 0.823 (5):0.177 (5) ratio. The dihedral angles between the central benzene ring and the pendant phenyl and meth­oxy­benzene ring (major orientation) are 51.21 (1) and 51.6 (1)°, respectively. In the crystal, inversion dimers linked by pairs of C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds generate R 2 2(28) loops.
