Synthesis, crystal structure and Hirshfeld surface analysis of 4′-cyano-[1,1′-biphen­yl]-4-yl 3-(benz­yloxy)benzoate

Abstract

The mol­ecules of the title compound are linked by weak C—H⋯O and C—H⋯π inter­actions.

In the title compound, C₂₇H₁₉O₃N, the dihedral angle between the aromatic rings of the biphenyl unit is 38.14 (2)° and the C—O—C—C torsion angle in the benz­yloxy benzene fragment is 179.1 (2)°. In the crystal, the mol­ecules are linked by weak C—H⋯O inter­actions forming S(9) chains propagating along [010]. The most important contributions to the Hirshfeld surface arise from H⋯H (32.4%) and C⋯H/H⋯C (37.0%) contacts.
