Crystal structure of (Z)-2,3-di­chloro-1,4-bis­(4-meth­oxy­phen­yl)but-2-ene-1,4-dione

The title compound, C18H14Cl2O4, adopts a Z conformation around the cental C=C bond. The two aromatic rings of the mol-ecule are nearly perpendicular to each other, with a dihedral angle between of 86.22 (14)°. The meth-oxy substituents lie close to the plane of the attached benzene rings. The C(ar)-C(ar)-O-C(Me) torsion angles are -2.4 (7) and 7.5 (6)°. Weak C-H⋯O inter-actions link the mol-ec...

BA 14-2-bradley

This paper details the comparison of a built coupled volume concert hall and a computergenerated model of the hall. Coupled volume spaces typically have an auxiliary volume connected to the main volume through an acoustically transparent aperture. In this type of space, architectural parameters such as volume size and surface absorption can be designed to produce a non-linear reverberant decay,...

(Z)-2,3-Di­chloro-1,4-bis­(4-chloro­phen­yl)but-2-ene-1,4-dione

The title compound, C16H8Cl4O2, crystallizes with two independent mol-ecules in the asymmetric unit. Both mol-ecules have a Z conformation around the central double bond and they show significantly different C-C-C-O torsion angles between the aromatic ring and the carbonyl group [30.1 (7) and 3.9 (7)° in one molecule and 23.5 (7) and 9.3 (8)° in the other]. The crystal packing shows short halog...

14-Hy­droxy-8,14-secogammacera-7-ene-3,21-dione from the bark of Lansium domesticum Corr.

In the title compound (kokosanolide B), C(30)H(48)O(3), the hexa-hydro- and octa-hydro-naphthalen-2-one ring systems are connected through an ethyl-ene fragment, with a C-CH(2)-CH(2)-C torsion angle of 176.2 (2)°. The cyclo-hexene ring adopts a half-chair conformation, while the other six-membered rings adopt distorted chair conformations. In the crystal, adjacent mol-ecules are linked into a z...
