C. Glidewell et al., (1'-BENZOYLFERROCENYL)DIPHENYLMETHANOL - A CENTROSYMMETRIC R-4(4)(16)DIMER GENERATED BY C-H-CENTER-DOT-CENTER-DOT-CENTER-DOT-O HYDROGEN-BONDING, Acta crystallographica. Section C, Crystal structure communications, 53, 1997, pp. 1775-1778
In (1'-benzoylferrocenyl)diphenylmethanol, [(PhCO-C5H4)Fe(C5H4)]CPh2OH
(C30H24FeO2), there is an intramolecularO-H ... O hydrogen bond with
O ... O 2.891 (2) Angstrom; the ferrocenyl unit adopts an eclipsed con
formation and the molecules are linked into centrosymmetric dimers by
C-H ... O hydrogen bonds with C ... O3.357 (3) Angstrom, to generate a
cyclic R-4(4)(16) motif.
