TY - JOUR A1 - Bolte, Michael A1 - Schwarz, Lothar A1 - Hashmi, A. Stephen K. T1 - Bis[5-(4-methoxybenzyl)furan-3-yl]methanone T2 - Acta crystallographica. Section E, Structure reports online N2 - The title compound, C25H22O5, was obtained by a dehydrogenative carbonylation reaction. It crystallizes with one half-molecule in the asymmetric unit. The molecules have crystallographic C2 symmetry and the two atoms of the carbonyl group are located on the rotation axis. The methoxy groups are coplanar with the benzene ring to which they are attached [C-C-O-C = 1.0 (6)°]. The two furan rings are inclined at 17.3 (3)° with respect to each other and the dihedral angle between the furan ring and the benzene ring is 75.83 (12)°. The crystal structure is stabilized by C-H...O hydrogen bonds. Key indicators: single-crystal X-ray study; T = 183 K; mean ( σ(C–C) = 0.006 Å; R factor = 0.081; wR factor = 0.195; data-to-parameter ratio = 13.4.
