3-Phenyl-2-(prop-2-yn-yloxy)-1-benzofuro[3,2-d]pyrimidin-4(3H)-one
Abstract:
In the title compound, C(19)H(12)N(2)O(3), the 1-benzofuro[3,2-d]pyrimidinone unit is approximately planar, the maximum deviation from the mean plane being 0.045 (1) Å. The attached phenyl ring makes a dihedral angle of 86.73 (6)° with the fused ring system. The packing of the mol-ecules in the crystal structure is mainly governed by C-H⋯π hydrogen-bonding inter-actions.

Structure and Nomenclature of Alcohols and Phenols
Alcohols are one of the most important functional groups in organic chemistry. The name of alcohol comes from the hydrocarbon from which it is derived. Alcohols are organic molecules containing the functional hydroxyl or –OH group directly bonded to carbon. Phenols have an OH group directly attached to a benzene ring. While alcohols are colorless, phenol is a white crystalline compound with a characteristic "hospital smell" odor.
As with other organic compounds, alcohols and phenols...

Adrenergic Agonists: Chemistry and Structure-Activity Relationship
Aromatic ring substitutions: Substituting the aromatic ring with –OH groups at positions 3 and 4 yields catecholamines (e.g., epinephrine), which have a high affinity for adrenoceptors. Hydrogen bonding between –OH groups and receptors enhances adrenergic activity.
Separation of the aromatic...
Nomenclature of Aromatic Compounds with Multiple Substituents
For disubstituted benzene derivatives, with two groups attached to the benzene ring, three constitutional isomers are possible. For example, consider dimethyl benzene, often called xylene, where the second methyl group can be substituted at the second, third, or fourth carbon. The relative position of the substituents is represented by prefixes ortho, meta, or...
