The asymmetric unit of the title compound, C(17)H(17)NO(2), contains two crystallographically independent mol-ecules. Both mol-ecules adopt a trans configuration about the C=C bond, with the C-C=C-C fragments in the two mol-ecules twisted in opposite directions [torsion angles of 174.2 (2) and -175.8 (2)°]. The two benzene rings in each of the mol-ecules make dihedral angles of 20.21 (6) and 48...

In the title compound, C(15)H(10)BrClO, the dihedral angle between mean planes of the bromo- and chloro-substituted benzene rings is 46.2 (2)° compared to 45.20 (9)° in the structure with the Cl substituent in the meta position of the aromatic ring. The dihedral angles between the mean plane of the prop-2-ene-1-one group and the mean planes of the 4-bromo-phenyl and 3-chloro-phenyl rings are 28...

In the title compound, C(15)H(10)BrClO, the mol-ecule adopts an E configuration with respect to the C=C double bond and the dihedral angle between the aromatic ring planes is 3.98 (16)°. In the crystal, inversion dimers linked by pairs of C-H⋯O bonds are seen and weak π-π stacking [centroid-centroid separation = 3.8776 (19) Å] may further consolidate the structure. The crystal studied was a non...

In the title compound, C(20)H(20)N(2)O(3), the piperidine ring adopts a chair conformation and its mean plane forms dihedral angles of 19.63 (9) and 19.44 (9)°, respectively, with the benzene and the nitro-substituted benzene ring. The benzene and nitro-substituted benzene rings are almost coplanar and make a dihedral angle of 4.78 (8)°. In the crystal, mol-ecules are linked by C-H⋯O hydrogen b...

The pyridyl and aryl rings in the title compound, C(16)H(16)N(2)O, which are located at the ends of the propenone unit, are inclined at an angle of 17.1 (1)° with respect to each other.

THE TITLE SYDNONE DERIVATIVE [SYSTEMATIC NAME: 2-bromo-1-(5-oxido-3-phenyl-1,2,3-oxadiazo-lium-4-yl)-3-phenyl-prop-2-en-1-one], C(17)H(11)BrN(2)O(3), exists in a Z configuration with respect to the acyclic C=C bond. An intra-molecular C-H⋯Br hydrogen bond generates a six-membered ring, producing an S(6) ring motif. The 1,2,3-oxadiazole ring in the sydnone unit is essentially planar [maximum dev...

The title compound, C(15)H(10)Cl(2)O, is a chalcone with 3-chloro-phenyl and 4-chloro-phenyl substituents bonded at the opposite ends of a propenone group, the biologically active region. The dihedral angle between mean planes of these two chloro-substituted benzene rings is 46.7 (7)° compared to 46.0 (1) and 32.4 (1)° in similar published sructures. The angles between the mean plane of the pro...
