O-H...O, C-H...O and C-H...πarene Intermolecular Interactions in (2R/2S)-2-(1-oxo-1,3-dihydroisoindol-2-yl)-3-phenylpropanoic Acid

Abstract

The title compound, C₁₇H₁₅NO₃, forms a hydrogenbonded network in the solid state consisting of O-H...O=C, Carene--H...and 0=C and Carene--H...πarene intermolecular interactions, with shortest O...O, C...O and C...C distances of 2.625(2), 3.281(3) and 3.652 (3)Å, respectively. The interplanar angle between the five- and six-membered rings of the isoindole system is 1.07 (14) °, with the carbonyl O atom 0.I10 (3)Å from the C₄N ring plane.
