Abstract

In the title compound, C17H13NO2, the benzene ring is twisted slightly out of the plane of the oxazole ring to which it is attached [dihedral angle = 7.98 (8)°]. Similarly, there is a twist [dihedral angle = 5.50 (8)°] between the oxazole and phenyl rings that are linked via the C=C bond [1.348 (2) Å]; the conformation about the latter is Z. In the crystal, the presence of C—H⋯O, C—H⋯π and π–π inter­actions [centroid–centroid distance = 3.5259 (9) Å] link the mol­ecules into a three-dimensional architecture.

Highlights

  • In the paper by Asiri et al [Acta Cryst. (2012), E68, o1154], the title and the chemical name of one of the reagents used in the synthesis are corrected

  • In the paper by Asiri et al (2012), the chemical name given in the title should be ‘(4Z)-4-Benzylidene-2-(4-methylphenyl)1,3-oxazol-5(4H)-one’

  • [dihedral angle = 5.50 (8) ] between the oxazole and phenyl rings that are linked via the C C bond [1.348 (2) Å]; the conformation about the latter is Z

Summary

Agilent SuperNova Dual diffractometer with an Atlas detector

R factor = 0.044; wR factor = 0.109; data-to-parameter ratio = 16.4. C17H13NO2, the benzene ring is twisted slightly out of the plane of the oxazole ring to which it is attached [dihedral angle = 7.98 (8) ]. There is a twist [dihedral angle = 5.50 (8) ] between the oxazole and phenyl rings that are linked via the C C bond [1.348 (2) Å]; the conformation about the latter is Z. The presence of C—H O, C—H and – interactions [centroid–. Centroid distance = 3.5259 (9) Å] link the molecules into a three-dimensional architecture. Cg1 is the centroid of the C5–C10 ring.
