Comment top

The title compound was synthesized as an intermediate in ongoing efforts to synthesize atropisomerically pure hydroxylated polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) for metabolism and toxicological studies (Lehmler et al., 2010; Warner et al., 2009). The dihedral angle between the two phenyl rings of the title compound, an important determinant of the toxicity of PCBs, was 84.40 (7)°. Comparable solid state dihedral (82–83°) have been reported for structurally related PCB derivatives with three ortho chlorine substituents (Lehmler et al., 2005; Rissanen et al., 1988b). Slightly larger (84–87°) dihedral angles have been observed for PCB derivatives with four ortho chlorine substituents (Pedersen, 1975; Singh & McKinney, 1979). Smaller solid state dihedral angles have been reported for PCB derivatives with zero, one or two ortho chlorine substituents due to the smaller steric demand of multiple hydrogen substituents in ortho position (Mannila & Rissanen, 1994; Miao et al., 1996; Rissanen et al., 1988a; Shaikh et al., 2008; Singh et al., 1986; van der Sluis et al., 1990; Vyas et al., 2006).

Experimental top

The title compound was synthesized by the Mitsunobu reaction of 2,2',5',6-tetrachloro-biphenyl-4-ol with (R)-isobutanol in THF (Fujita et al., 2001). Crystals suitable for crystal structure analysis were obtained by slowly evaporating a methanolic solution of the title compound.

Refinement top

H atoms were found in difference Fourier maps and subsequently placed in idealized positions with constrained distances of 0.98 Å (RCH3), 0.99 Å (R2CH2), 1.00 Å (R3CH), 0.95 Å (Csp2H), and with Uiso(H) values set to either 1.2Ueq or 1.5Ueq (RCH3) of the attached atom. The absolute configuration was determined from 1625 Friedel pairs [Flack 'x' = 0.00 (6)].

Special details top

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-value wR and goodness of fit S are based on F2. Conventional R-values R are based on F, with F set to zero for negative F2. The threshold expression of F2 > 2σ(F2) is used only for calculating R-factors(gt) etc. and is not relevant to the choice of reflections for refinement. R-values based on F2 are statistically about twice as large as those based on F, and R-values based on ALL data will be even larger.
