(R)-2,2'-Bis[N'-(3,5-dichloro-phen-yl)ureido]-1,1'-binaphthalene chloro-form disolvate
Abstract:
The title compound, C(34)H(22)Cl(4)N(4)O(2)·2CHCl(3), is a new urea based on the 1,1'-binaphthalene skeleton, which crystallizes with two mol-ecules of binaphthalene and four mol-ecules of chloro-form in the unit cell. The chloro-form solvent mol-ecules do not participate in non-covalent inter-actions and therefore, can be found in several positions. The binaphthalene mol-ecules are connected via a system of N-H⋯O hydrogen bonds between the ureido units. C-H⋯O inter-actions also occur. In contrast to unsubstituted urea, where mol-ecules form squares in crystals, the bulky substituents disturb this arrangement and three ureido groups form infinite chains, while the fourth inter-acts with a neighbouring binaphthalene ring via an N-H⋯π inter-action. The solvent molecules are disordered with occupancy ratios of 0.60:0.40, 0.58:0.42, 0.50:0.50 and 0.77:0.23.

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...
