Abstract:
The structure of the title compound, 1,3-diphenyl-2-benzofuran, C20H14O, exhibits a distinct alternation of short [mean 1.361 (3) angstrom] and long [ mean 1.431 (3) angstrom] C-C bonds around the benzofuran ring system, indicating a predominantly polyene character. Over 60 Diels-Alder adducts of this commercially available furan have been structurally characterized, but this is the first report of the structure of the parent compound.
