Abstract

AbstractNon‐covalent weak interactions play a vital role in the stabilization of solid‐state structures. This manuscript describes the X‐ray crystallographic study of 4,6‐dimethyl‐2‐oxo‐1‐(3‐(p‐tolyloxy)propyl)‐1,2‐dihydropyridine‐3‐carbonitrile, an unsymmetrical fleximer. One aromatic ring and a heterocyclic ring (pyridone) are linked through trimethylene linker in this compound. The non‐covalent interactions observed in the solid state are studied using Hirshfeld surface and fingerprint analyses. The molecular solid is stabilized by C─H─O, C─H…N, C─H─л, and л─л interactions. Interaction energies for the most significant nonbonded contacts were calculated using CrystalExplorer17.
