Comment

Recently, a few phenylacetate and styrene derivatives have been reported with versatile biological activities (Fang et al., 2007; Liu et al., 2008; Shi et al., 2007, 2008; Zhang, et al., 2008). We report herein the title new compound, (I), (Fig. 1).

In compound (I), the dihedral angle between the C1—C6 and C7—C12 phenyl rings is 51.8 (3)°, indicating the molecule is not coplanar. The O3/C13—C15/O1/O2 plane forms dihedral angles of 20.7 (3)° and 47.6 (3)°, respectively, with C1—C6 and C7—C12 phenyl rings. All the bond lengths of the molecule are in normal ranges (Allen et al., 1987).

Experimental

Equimolar ethyl 3-bromo-2-(4-chlorophenyl)acrylate and 3,5-difluorophenol reacted in chloroform overnight, giving a colorless solution. Block crystals of the compound were formed by gradual evaporation of the solution in air for a week.

Refinement

H atoms were included in the riding model approximation with C–H = 0.93–0.97 Å and with Uiso(H) = 1.2Ueq(C) and 1.5Ueq(methyl C).

Special details

Geometry. All e.s.d.'s (except the e.s.d. in the dihedral angle between two l.s. planes) are estimated using the full covariance matrix. The cell e.s.d.'s are taken into account individually in the estimation of e.s.d.'s in distances, angles and torsion angles; correlations between e.s.d.'s in cell parameters are only used when they are defined by crystal symmetry. An approximate (isotropic) treatment of cell e.s.d.'s is used for estimating e.s.d.'s involving l.s. planes.
Refinement. Refinement of F2 against ALL reflections. The weighted R-factor wR and goodness of fit S are based on F2, conventional R-factors R are based on F, with F set to zero for negative F2. The threshold expression of F2 > σ(F2) is used only for calculating R-factors(gt) etc. and is not relevant to the choice of reflections for refinement. R-factors based on F2 are statistically about twice as large as those based on F, and R- factors based on ALL data will be even larger.
