A series of substituted (2E)-3-(2-fluoro-4-phenoxyphenyl)-1-phenylprop-2-en-1-ones.
In the molecular structures of a series of substituted chalcones, namely (2E)-3-(2-fluoro-4-phenoxyphenyl)-1-phenylprop-2-en-1-one, C21H15FO2, (I), (2E)-3-(2-fluoro-4-phenoxyphenyl)-1-(4-fluorophenyl)prop-2-en-1-one, C21H14F2O2, (II), (2E)-1-(4-chlorophenyl)-3-(2-fluoro-4-phenoxyphenyl)prop-2-en-1-one, C21H14ClFO2, (III), (2E)-3-(2-fluoro-4-phenoxyphenyl)-1-(4-methylphenyl)prop-2-en-1-one, C22H17FO2, (IV), and (2E)-3-(2-fluoro-4-phenoxyphenyl)-1-(4-methoxyphenyl)prop-2-en-1-one, C22H17FO3, (V), the configuration of the keto group with respect to the olefinic double bond is s-cis. The molecules pack utilizing weak C-H...O and C-H...pi intermolecular contacts. Identical packing motifs involving C-H...O interactions, forming both chains and dimers, along with C-H...pi dimers and pi-pi aromatic interactions are observed in the fluoro, chloro and methyl derivatives.
