The title compound, C24H25Br, packs efficiently in the with no solvent-accessible voids and several intermolecular H⋯H contacts approximating the sum of the van der Waals radii. The molecule is quite crowded, with intramolecular Br⋯H and C⋯H contacts ca 0.38 and 0.30 Å, respectively, less than the sum of the corresponding van der Waals radii. All cyclohexyl rings adopt chair conformations with the `seat' of the chair inclined at approximately 57–81° to the mean plane of the benzene ring, while those ortho to bromine have their centroids displaced in opposite directions from this plane.

The title compound (TCBBr, I) has been prepared as a precursor to the Grignard reagent TCBMgBr (Kouldelka et al., 1985) with the latter used to synthesize sterically hindered acetophenones and nitrobenzenes as well as stable
(R2Sn:), stannanethiones (R2Sn=S) and stannaneselenones (R2Sn=Se) (Saito, et al., 2004). Viewed along the Br-C1vector, the plane defined by C8, C9, C11 and C12 ("seat" of the chair) is inclined at an angle of 57.3 (3)° to the plane of the aromatic ring while C7 is 0.07 (1) Å below the latter plane. Similarly, the plane defined by C20, C21, C23 and C24 is inclined at an angle of 122.4 (3)° with C19 0.07 (1) Å below the plane of the aromatic ring while the plane defined by C14, C15, C17, C18 makes an angle of 81.5 (3)° with the latter plane. The tilt is towards C5 and C13 lies in the plane of the aromatic ring. Additionally, the center of gravity of the C7—C12 ring lies 0.23 (1) Å above the mean plane of the aromatic ring while that of the C19—C24 ring lies 0.51 (1) Å below it. This contrasts with 2,6-dicyclohexyl-3,5-di-tert-butylphenol (Vilardo et al., 2000) and 2,3,6-tricyclohexylbiphenyl (Columbus et al., 1994) where the centers of gravity of the corresponding cyclohexyl groups are essentially in the plane of the aromatic ring (in the former this is required by symmetry). The methine H atoms H7 and H19 point towards the bromine which is the orientation seen in 2,3,6-tricyclohexylbiphenyl but opposite from that in 2,6-dicyclohexyl-3,5-di-tert-butylphenol. All three cyclohexyl groups adopt chair conformations with the pertinent puckering parameters (Cremer & Pople, 1975) listed in Table 1. There are 20 intermolecular H···H contacts that are 0.09 (2)–0.13 (2) Å less than the sum of the van der Waals radii and 14 equal to this sum indicative of the compact molecular packing. In addition there are 12 intramolecular H···C contacts 0.07 (2)–0.30 (2) Å less and 9 intramolecular H···H contacts 0.05 (3)–0.30 (3) Å less than the sums of the respective van der Waals radii. This contrasts with 2,6-dicyclohexyl-3,5-di-tert -butylphenol where no such short contacts are seen and 2,3,6-tricyclohexylbiphenyl where there is one C—H···Cg (Cg is the center of gravity of the central aromatic ring) interaction with H···Cg = 2.71 Å and a C—H···Cg angle of 161°.For related structures see: Columbus et al. (1994) and Vilardo et al. (2000). For the synthesis see: Kouldelka et al. (1985). For related literature, see: Saito et al. (2004).

Experimental. The diffraction data were collected in three sets of 606 frames (ω scans, 0.3°/scan) at φ settings of 0, 120 and 240°. |
Geometry. All e.s.d.'s (except the e.s.d. in the dihedral angle between two l.s. planes) are estimated using the full covariance matrix. The cell e.s.d.'s are taken into account individually in the estimation of e.s.d.'s in distances, angles and torsion angles; correlations between e.s.d.'s in cell parameters are only used when they are defined by crystal symmetry. An approximate (isotropic) treatment of cell e.s.d.'s is used for estimating e.s.d.'s involving l.s. planes. |
Refinement. Refinement of F2 against ALL reflections. The weighted R-factor wR and goodness of fit S are based on F2, conventional R-factors R are based on F, with F set to zero for negative F2. The threshold expression of F2 > σ(F2) is used only for calculating R-factors(gt) etc. and is not relevant to the choice of reflections for refinement. R-factors based on F2 are statistically about twice as large as those based on F, and R- factors based on ALL data will be even larger. H-atoms were placed in calculated positions (C—H = 0.95 - 0.98 Å) and included as riding contributions with isotropic displacement parameters 1.2 - 1.5 times those of the attached carbon atoms. |

The title compound (TCBBr, I) has been prepared as a precursor to the Grignard reagent TCBMgBr (Kouldelka et al., 1985) with the latter used to synthesize sterically hindered acetophenones and nitrobenzenes as well as stable stannylenes (R2Sn:), stannanethiones (R2Sn=S) and stannaneselenones (R2Sn=Se) (Saito, et al., 2004). Viewed along the Br-C1vector, the plane defined by C8, C9, C11 and C12 ("seat" of the chair) is inclined at an angle of 57.3 (3)° to the plane of the aromatic ring while C7 is 0.07 (1) Å below the latter plane. Similarly, the plane defined by C20, C21, C23 and C24 is inclined at an angle of 122.4 (3)° with C19 0.07 (1) Å below the plane of the aromatic ring while the plane defined by C14, C15, C17, C18 makes an angle of 81.5 (3)° with the latter plane. The tilt is towards C5 and C13 lies in the plane of the aromatic ring. Additionally, the center of gravity of the C7—C12 ring lies 0.23 (1) Å above the mean plane of the aromatic ring while that of the C19—C24 ring lies 0.51 (1) Å below it. This contrasts with 2,6-dicyclohexyl-3,5-di-tert-butylphenol (Vilardo et al., 2000) and 2,3,6-tricyclohexylbiphenyl (Columbus et al., 1994) where the centers of gravity of the corresponding cyclohexyl groups are essentially in the plane of the aromatic ring (in the former this is required by symmetry). The methine H atoms H7 and H19 point towards the bromine which is the orientation seen in 2,3,6-tricyclohexylbiphenyl but opposite from that in 2,6-dicyclohexyl-3,5-di-tert-butylphenol. All three cyclohexyl groups adopt chair conformations with the pertinent puckering parameters (Cremer & Pople, 1975) listed in Table 1. There are 20 intermolecular H···H contacts that are 0.09 (2)–0.13 (2) Å less than the sum of the van der Waals radii and 14 equal to this sum indicative of the compact molecular packing. In addition there are 12 intramolecular H···C contacts 0.07 (2)–0.30 (2) Å less and 9 intramolecular H···H contacts 0.05 (3)–0.30 (3) Å less than the sums of the respective van der Waals radii. This contrasts with 2,6-dicyclohexyl-3,5-di-tert -butylphenol where no such short contacts are seen and 2,3,6-tricyclohexylbiphenyl where there is one C—H···Cg (Cg is the center of gravity of the central aromatic ring) interaction with H···Cg = 2.71 Å and a C—H···Cg angle of 161°.
