Facile Preparation of (2Z,4E)-Dienamides by the Olefination of Electron-deficient Alkenes with Allyl Acetate
Published on: June 21, 2017
(E)-3-(1-Methyl-1H-pyrrol-2-yl)-1-phenyl-prop-2-en-1-one
Abstract:
The crystal structure of the title compound, C(14)H(13)NO, exhibits an E configuration. The conjugated compound is slightly twisted with a dihedral angle of 29.3° between the benzene and pyrrole rings. Two inter-molecular C-H⋯O inter-actions lead to a dimer. In the crystal, intermolecular C-H⋯O interactions generate an inversion dimer.

Structure and Nomenclature of Ethers
Ethers are organic compounds with an ether functional group which is characterized by an oxygen atom connected to two — identical or different — alkyl, aryl, or vinyl groups. The C–O–C linkage in dimethyl ether — the simplest ether — has an approximately tetrahedral bond angle of 110.3 degrees. The oxygen atom is sp3- hybridized, with the C–O distance being about 140 pm.

Based on their attached substituent groups, ethers can be classified into two...
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...
