In the title compound, C15H11BrO4, the dihedral angle between the aromatic rings is 66.77 (8)°. In the crystal, O—H⋯O, C—H⋯Br and C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds link the molecules, forming layers lying parallel to (101). The crystal packing is further consolidated by C—H⋯π interactions and π–π stacking interactions [centroid–centroid distance = 3.5476 (7) Å].

A mixture of 4-hydroxybenzoic acid (1.0 g, 0.0072 mol), potassium carbonate (1.09 g, 0.0079 mol) and 2-bromo-1-(4-bromophenyl)ethanone (2.0 g, 0.0072 mol) in dimethylformamide (10 ml) was stirred at room temperature for 2 h. On cooling, colourless needle-shaped crystals of 2-(4-bromophenyl)-2-oxoethyl 4-hydroxybenzoate began to separate out. It was collected by filtration and recrystallized from ethanol to yield colourless blocks. Yield: 2.1 g, 86.7%. M. p.: 464–465 K (Lund & Langvad, 1932).
O– bound H atom was located from a difference Fourier map and was refined with a riding model with Uiso(H) = 1.5 Ueq(O) [O–H = 0.8286 Å]. The remaining H atoms were positioned geometrically and refined with a riding model with Uiso(H) = 1.2 Ueq(C) [C–H = 0.95 or 0.99 Å].

Experimental. The crystal was placed in the cold stream of an Oxford Cryosystems Cobra open-flow nitrogen cryostat (Cosier & Glazer, 1986) operating at 100.0 (1) K. |
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. |

As part of our ongoing structural studies of phenacyl benzoates (Fun et al., 2011), we now report the crystal structure of the title compound.
In the title compound (Fig. 1), the dihedral angle formed between the bromo-substituted (C1–C6) and hydroxy-substituted (C10–C15) benzene rings is 66.77 (8)°. Bond lengths and angles are within the normal ranges and are comparable to the related structure (Jin et al., 2008).
In the crystal (Fig. 2), O4—H1O4···O2, C12—H12A···Br1 and C14—H14A···O2 hydrogen bonds (Table 1) link the molecules to form layers parallel to the (101) plane. The crystal packing is further consolidated by C—H···π interactions involving the centroid of the hydroxy-substituted benzene ring (Cg2; Table 1) and π–π interactions (Table 1) involving the centroids of the substituted benzene rings with the distance of Cg1···Cg2 being 3.5476 (7) Å. Cg 1 is the centroid of the bromo-substituted benzene ring.
