title: Crystal structure of 5-(4-benzyl-oxyphen-yl)-3-(4-meth-oxy-phen-yl)-6-methyl-cyclo-hex-2-en-1-one.
abstract: The title compound, C27H26O3, crystallized with two independent mol-ecules (A and B) in the asymmetric unit. In mol-ecule A, the plane of the central benzene ring forms dihedral angles of 75.78 (14) and 52.75 (16)° with that of the terminal benzene rings, and the dihedral angle between the planes of the terminal benzene rings is 51.49 (17)°. The corresponding values for mol-ecule B are 75.18 (14), 58.11 (16) and 47.91 (16)°, respectively. The cyclo-hexene ring adopts an envelope conformation in both mol-ecules, with the C atom to which is attached the central benzene ring as the flap. The crystal packing, is stabilized by C-H⋯π inter-actions.
