Crystal structure of 1,8-dibenzoyl-2,7-di­phen­oxy­naphthalene

Abstract

In 1,8-dibenzoyl-2,7-di­phen­oxy­naphthalene, the planes of the benzene rings of the four naphthalene substituents are almost perpendicular to that of the naphthalene core.

Abstract

In the title compound, C ₃₆H ₂₄O ₄, the benzene rings of the benzoyl and phen­oxy groups make dihedral angles of 75.01 (4), 75.78 (4), 83.17 (5) and 80.84 (5)° with the naphthalene ring system. In the crystal, two types of C—H⋯π inter­actions between the benzene rings of the benzoyl groups and the naphthalene unit, and two kinds of π–π inter­actions between the benzene rings, with centroid–centroid distances of 3.879 (1) and 3.696 (1) Å, are observed.
