2-Acetylphenyl 5-methylthiophene-2-carboxylate

C. Kazak, H. Göker and S. Íde

Abstract: The non-H atoms of the molecule of the title compound, C₁₄H₁₂O₃S, form three essentially planar fragments, viz. the thiophene ring with the methyl C atom and carboxylate group (maximum deviation 0.041  Å; fragment A), the oxyphenyl ring with the central acetyl C atom (0.029  Å; B), and the acetyl group together with the phenyl C atom bonded to it (<0.001  Å; C). These planes form dihedral angles of 88.33  (7)° for A/B and 71.9  (2)° for B/C. The crystal structure is stabilized by intermolecular interactions of the C-HO type [CO = 3.492  (5)  Å].
