Acta Crystallogr E Crystallogr Commun. 2021 Sep 28;77(Pt 10):1048-1053. doi: 10.1107/S2056989021009907. eCollection 2021 Oct 1.

Abstract

In the title compound, C24H18Cl3NO3, the tetra-hydro-furan rings adopt envelope conformations. In the crystal, C-H⋯O hydrogen bonds connect mol-ecules, generating layers parallel to the (001) plane. These layers are connected along the c-axis direction by C-H⋯π inter-actions. The packing is further stabilized by inter-layer van der Waals and inter-halogen inter-actions. The most important contributions to the surface contacts are from H⋯H (36.8%), Cl⋯H/H⋯Cl (26.6%), C⋯H/H⋯C (18.8%) and O⋯H/H⋯O (11.3%) inter-actions, as concluded from a Hirshfeld surface analysis.
