2-(4-Chloro-phen-yl)-2-oxoethyl 2,4-di-fluoro-benzoate

Abstract

The asymmetric unit of title compound, C 15H 9C lF 2O 3, consists of two crystallographically independent mol-ecules. The dihedral angle between the two terminal benzene rings in one mol-ecule is 7.92 (14) , while that in the other mol-ecule is 73.50 (16) . In the crystal, mol-ecules are stacked into columns along the b axis by inter-molecular C - H?O hydrogen bonds. A ?-? inter-action with a centroid-to-centroid distance of 3.747 (2) further stabilizes the crystal structure. Fun et al. 2011.
