title: (8-Benzoyl-2,7-dimeth-oxy-naphthalen-1-yl)(4-phen-oxy-phen-yl)methanone.
abstract: In the mol-ecule of the title compound, C32H24O5, the benzoyl group and the 4-phenoxy substituted benzoyl group at the 1- and 8-positions of the naphthalene ring system are aligned almost anti-parallel. The two benzene rings make a dihedral angle of 21.18 (10)°, and are inclined to the naphthalene ring system by 86.53 (9) and 82.95 (8)°, respectively. In the crystal, C-H⋯O inter-actions are observed involving aromatic and meth-oxy H atoms with ketonic carbonyl O atoms, as well as C-H⋯π inter-actions between aromatic H atoms and the π-systems of naphthalene and benzene rings. These interactions form a three-dimensional architecture and afford a waved alignment of the naphthalene ring systems along the c axis.
