(E)-3-(4-Bromo-phen-yl)-1-(3,4-dichloro-phen-yl)prop-2-en-1-one

Abstract

The mol-ecule of the title compound, C15H9BrCl 2O, is shown to be the E isomer, with the 3,4-dichloro-benzoyl and p-bromo-phenyl substituents in trans positions with respect to the chalcone olefin bond. The mol-ecule is non-planar, the two aromatic rings forming a dihedral angle of 49.58 (1)°.
