5-Cyclopropyl-1-[(4-methylbenzene)sulfonyl]indole-2-carbaldehyde
The crystal structure of 5-cyclopropyl-1-tosyl-1H-indole-2-carbaldehyde shows a nearly planar indole core, with slipped π–π stacking interactions contributing to the crystal packing. Hirshfeld surface analysis indicates that H⋯H, O⋯H/H⋯O and C⋯H/H⋯C contacts make the major contributions to the crystal packing.
4-[(E)-2-(4-{(E)-2-[4-((E)-2-{4-[(E)-2-(4-Cyanophenyl)ethenyl]phenyl}ethenyl)-2,5-bis(octyloxy)phenyl]ethenyl}phenyl)ethenyl]benzonitrile
The complete molecule of the title compound, which was prepared via a Horner olefination, is generated by a crystallographic centre of symmetry. Whereas the terminal cyanostilbene units are almost planar, the central dioctoxybenzene unit is substantially tilted, which limits conjugation. van der Waals forces between the alkyl chains connect the molecules, arranged in layers lying parallel to the ac plane.
