Synthesis and structure of 4-bromo-2-chlorophenyl 4′-methoxy-[1,1′-biphenyl]-4-carboxylate featuring short halogen...oxygen contacts

In the title compound, C20H14BrClO3, the dihedral angles between the aromatic ring of the 4-bromo-2-chlorophenyl and the immediate neighbour and second aromatic ring of the biphenyl moiety are 80.59 (2) and 75.42 (2)°, respectively. The dihedral angle between the rings within the biphenyl moiety is...

Description
Summary:In the title compound, C20H14BrClO3, the dihedral angles between the aromatic ring of the 4-bromo-2-chlorophenyl and the immediate neighbour and second aromatic ring of the biphenyl moiety are 80.59 (2) and 75.42 (2)°, respectively. The dihedral angle between the rings within the biphenyl moiety is 24.57 (4)°. The torsion angle associated with the ester group linking the biphenyl ring and the 4-bromo-2-chlorophenyl group is −166.6 (2)°. The extended structure features short halogen...oxygen contacts [Cl...O = 2.991 (3), Br...O = 3.139 (2) Å], forming molecular sheets lying parallel to (101). The Hirshfeld surface analysis reveals that the major contributions to the intermolecular interactions are from C...H/H...C (32.2%), H...H/H...H (26.3%), Br...H/H...Br (10.7%), O...H/H...O (10.4%) and Cl...H/H...Cl (7.5%) contacts.
