title: (2-Benzoyl-phen-yl)(3,4-dimethyl-phen-yl)methanone.
abstract: In the title compound, C(22)H(18)O(2), the central benzene ring forms dihedral angles of 76.0 (1) and 73.1 (1)° with the phenyl ring and dimethyl-substituted benzene ring, respectively. The carbonyl-group O atoms deviate significantly from the phenyl ring and the dimethyl-substituted benzene ring [-0.582 (12) and 0.546 (12) Å, respectively]. The crystal packing is stabilized by C-H⋯π inter-actions.
