3-(3-Bromophenyl)-1-phenylprop-2-en-1-one

Abstract

The enone group and the benzene rings of the title compound, C15H11BrO, are each planar. The mol­ecules are linked via C—H⋯O inter­actions into wave‐like chains along the c axis and the chains are stacked along the b axis.

1-(4-Bromophenyl)-3-(2,5-dimethoxyphenyl)prop-2-en-1-one

“…The bond lengths and angles for (I) are within normal ranges (Allen et al, 1987) and are comparable to those in related structures (Sathiya Moorthi, Chinnakali, Nanjundan, Radhika et al, 2005;Sathiya Moorthi, Chinnakali, Nanjundan, Santhi & Fun, 2005;Sathiya Moorthi, Chinnakali, Nanjundan, Selvam et al, 2005;Sathiya Moorthi, Chinnakali, Nanjundan, Unnithan et al, 2005;Ravishankar et al, 2005;Teh et al, 2006;Ng et al, 2006;Patil et al, 2006). The dihedral angle between the benzene rings is 18.34 (13) .…”

“…Recently, it has been noted that derivatives of chalcones exhibit extremely high and fast non-linearity (Fichou et al, 1988;Kitaoka et al, 1990;Uchida et al, 1998;Goto et al, 1991;Patil et al, 2006a,b;Zhang et al, 1990;Zhao et al, 2000). We and others have undertaken a number of theoretical and structural studies of such compounds (Ng et al, 2006;Patil et al, 2006a,b;Teh et al, 2006;Radha Krishna et al, 2005;Sathiya Moorthi et al, 2005;Uchida et al, 1995), and we report here the structure of the title compound (I) ( Fig. 1).…”
