2-(4-Bromo-phen-yl)-2-oxoethyl 4-chloro-benzoate

Abstract

The asymmetric unit of the title compound, C <inf>15</inf>H <inf>10</inf>BrClO <inf>3</inf>, consists of three crystallographically independent mol-ecules. The dihedral angles between the benzene rings in the three mol-ecules are 68.8 (2), 0.7 (3) and 66.1 (2)°. In the crystal, the three independent mol-ecules are inter-connected by C - H?O hydrogen bonds, leading to isolated trimers. © Fun et al. 2011.
