2-Bromo-1-chlorophenyl-3-(4-methoxy-phenyl)prop-2-en-1-one

Abstract

The geometrical parameters for the title compound, C16H 12BrClO2, are normal. The observed bond lengths and angles imply that there is little electronic conjugation between the two benzene ring systems. An intramolecular C-H⋯Br interaction may help to establish the molecular conformation. The crystal packing results in a centrosymmetric structure. © 2006 International Union of Crystallography All rights reserved.
