AI Article Synopsis

  • The molecule CHFO was created using a Claisen-Schmidt condensation involving 4-fluoro-benzaldehyde and 4'-ethoxy-acetophenone.
  • The torsion angles between its components are very small, indicating a relatively planar structure, with the largest torsion being between bonds in the 2-propen-1-one unit at 12.0°.
  • The stability of the crystal structure arises from various interactions, including hydrogen bonding, π-π stacking, and H-π interactions.

Article Abstract

The title mol-ecule, CHFO, was synthesized by a Claisen-Schmidt condensation with 4-fluoro-benzaldehyde and 4'-eth-oxy-aceto-phenone. The torsion angles between the 4-fluoro-phenyl ring and the alkene and the 4'-eth-oxy-phenyl ring and the 2-propen-1-one are -1.2 (4) and 1.2 (3)°, respectively; however, there is a larger torsion between the bonds comprising the 2-propen-1-one unit of 12.0 (4)°. The crystal packing is stabilized by inter-molecular C-H⋯O/F hydrogen bonding, π-π stacking, and H-π inter-actions.
