Abstract

In order to find out the consequences of a methyl substitution on the crystalline packing behaviour of the parent compound 2,6-diphenyl-4-nitrophenol, three analogous nitrophenols being substituted at different positions of the lateral phenyl rings were comparatively studied with regard to their crystal structures. While the molecular structures do not suggest marked differences, the network structures do, showing dependency on the presence and positional substitution of the methyl groups. This is revealed by the formation of weakly O—H…π bonded dimers or supramolecular chains, more strongly hold together through interacting OH and nitro groups.
