Abstract

The title compound, C30H24N2O4, 3,3′-[1,2-ethanediyl-bis(oxy-2,1-phenylene)]bis[1-(2-pyridyl)-2-propen-1-one] was synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis, FT-IR spectra, 1H NMR, and X-ray single-crystal diffraction. In the molecule, the pyridine plane and the adjacent phenyl plane are almost coplanar with the dihedral angle of 3.07°, while the dihedral angle between the mean planes of the two asymmetric units is 67.56°. The crystal packing is stabilized by weak intermolecular C-H...N and C-H...O hydrogen bonds, C-H...π and π...π stacking interactions.
