Phenyl 4-methyl-benzoate.


ABSTRACT: The structure of the title compound, C(14)H(12)O(2), resembles those of phenyl benzoate and 4-methyl-phenyl benzoate, with similar bond parameters. The two aromatic rings make a dihedral angle of 76.0?(1)°. The plane of the central -C(=O)-O- group is twisted by 9.4?(2)° out of the plane of the benzoyl ring, and by 83.3?(1)° out of the plane of the phenyl ring. The crystal structure exhibits weak parallel stacking of the benzoyl rings, with an inter-planar distance of 3.65?Å and an offset of 1.84?Å. The methyl group shows orientational disorder.
