Benzyl 2-{4-[2-(4-chloro-benzoyl-amino)-eth-yl]phen-oxy}-2-methyl-propionate
Abstract:
In the title compound, C(26)H(26)ClNO(4), the central phenyl-ene ring is oriented at dihedral angles of 5.06 (14) and 64.14 (5)°, respectively, with respect to aromatic rings of the benzyl and chloro-phenyl groups. The centroid-centroid distance between the central phenyl-ene ring and the aromatic ring of the benzyl group is 4.028 (12) Å. In the crystal, inter-molecular N-H⋯O hydrogen bond generate a chain along (100). C-H⋯O inter-actions are also observed.

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...
