Crystal structure and Hirshfeld surface analysis of 3-({4-[(4-cyano-phen-oxy)carbon-yl]phen-oxy}carbon-yl)phenyl 4-(benz-yloxy)-3-chloro-benzoate.

Abstract

The title compound, C35H22ClNO7, is a non-liquid crystal with a bent-shaped mol-ecule. The dihedral angles between adjacent aromatic rings in the mol-ecule (starting from the cyano-benzene ring) are 72.61 (2), 87.69 (4), 64.08 (2) and 88.23 (2)°, indicating that adjacent rings are close to perpendicular to each other. In the crystal, the mol-ecules are linked by weak C-H⋯N and C-H⋯π inter-actions, thereby forming a two-dimensional supra-molecular architecture in the ac plane. The most important contributions to the crystal packing arise from H⋯H (59.3%), S⋯H (27.4%) and O⋯H (7.5%) inter-actions, as determined by a Hirshfeld surface analysis.
