Crystal Structure and Hirshfeld Surfaces of (E)-1-(2-Hydroxyphenyl)-3-(5-methylthiophen-2-yl)prop-2-en-1-one

Abstract

The title compound, (E)-1-(2-hydroxyphenyl)-3-(5-methylthiophen-2-yl)prop-2-en-1-one, is crystallized into a monoclinic crystal class with cell parameters a = 8.2530(5)Å, b = 13.1530(14)Å, c = 14.1570(11)Å, β = 125.579(6)° and space group of P2₁/c. The structure is solved by a direct method, and it is refined to R = 0.048. The structure exhibits short C–H···O interactions. Hirshfeld surface computation studies shows that H···H, C···H and O···H are major contributions.
