Abstract:
In the title compound, C30H29F5O5, the dihedral angle between the central carbonyl-phenyl and peripheral perfluoro-phen-oxy and benzoate rings are 76.57 (2) and 69.71 (3)°, respectively. The pendant C10 alkyl chain adopts an all-anti conformation. In the crystal, weak C-H⋯O hydrogen bonds connect the mol-ecules, generating [010] C(7) chains. The packing is consolidated by C-H⋯F and C-H⋯π inter-actions and weak aromatic π-π stacking. A Hirshfeld surface analysis revealed that the major contributions to the packing are from H⋯H (42.2%), H⋯F/F⋯H (19.0%), H⋯O/O⋯H (10.3%), C⋯H/H⋯C (8.7%) and F⋯C/C⋯F (8.0%) contacts.

Structures of Carboxylic Acid Derivatives
Carboxylic acid derivatives contain an acyl group attached to a heteroatom such as chlorine, oxygen, or nitrogen. The carbonyl carbon and oxygen are both sp2-hybridized with an unhybridized p orbital.
The three sp2 orbitals of the carbonyl carbon form three σ bonds, one each with the carbonyl oxygen, the α carbon, and the heteroatom, whereas the other two sp2 orbitals of the carbonyl oxygen are occupied by the lone pairs. Further, the unhybridized p...

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...
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...
