1-Methyl-1-phenyl-3-(phthalimidoacetyl)cyclobutane

N. Özdemir, M. Dinçer, I. Yilmaz and A. Çukurovali

Abstract: The title molecule, C₂₁H₁₉NO₃, consists of three essentially planar fragments. There is negligible puckering in the cyclobutane ring. The crystal structure is stabilized not only by weak intermolecular C-HO hydrogen-bond interactions but also by weak C-H(ring) interactions, with an HCg distance of 2.85  Å (where Cg is the centroid of the phthalimido six-membered ring).
