Crystal structure of trans -1-{2-[4-(dimethylamino)phenyl]ethyl}-4-[2-(pyren-1-yl)ethyl]cyclohexane

摘要

The title compound, C$_{34}$H$_{37}$N, is a pyrene derivative in which the pyrene ring system is linked to an ethylcyclohexane unit which, in turn, carries a [4-(dimethylamino)phenyl]ethyl substituent in the para position. The central cyclohexane ring has a chair conformation, with the exocyclic C—C bonds inequatorial orientations. The benzene ring is inclined to the mean plane of the pyrene ring system [maximum deviation =0.038 (4) Å] by 14.84 (15) ̊ . In the crystal, molecules are linked by C—H ...$\pi$ interactions, forming chains propagating along [010]. The crystal was refined as a non-merohedral twin [domain ratio = 0.9989 (4):0.0011 (4)].
