Abstract:In the title compound, C17H16O3, the dihedral angle between the mean planes of the benzene rings is 57.1 (1)°. The mean plane of the ketone group is twisted by 10.0 (5)° from that of the dimethoxyphenyl ring. The two dimethoxyphenyl groups are twisted slighly from the mean plane of the phenyl ring, with C—O—C—C torsion angles of 6.4 (2) and −7.9 (2)° [r.m.s. deviations = 0.15 (3) and 0.18 (3) Å for the two methoxy C atoms]. In the crystal, weak centroid–centroid π–π stacking interactions, with intercen… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
