2-{2,4,6-Tris(bromomethyl)-3,5-bis[(1,3-dioxoisoindolin-2-yl)methyl]benzyl}isoindoline-1,3-dione toluene monosolvate

Abstract

In the title compound, C36H24Br3N3O6·C7H8, the toluene solvent molecule is associated with the receptor moleculeviaC—H...π bonding. The planes of the phthalimido groups are inclined at 77.0 (1), 63.0 (1) and 77.8 (1)° with respect to the benzene ring. The molecular conformation is stabilized by C—H...O and C—H...Br hydrogen bonds. The crystal structure features non-classical hydrogen bonds of the C—H...N, C—H...O and C—H...Br type, leading to a three-dimensional cross-linking of molecules. The pattern of non-covalent intermolecular bonding is completed by O...Br halogen bonds [3.306 (3) Å], which link the receptor molecules into infinite strands extending along thea-axis direction.
