N-(3-Methoxypropyl)-1,8-naphthalimide
In the title compound, C16H15NO3, the 1,8-naphthalenodicarboximide group is nearly planar and, in the naphthalimide ring system, the characteristic alternating pattern of bond lengths is observed. In the crystal, the molecules are connected by a weak C—H⋯O hydrogen bond and extend in the direction parallel to the b axis.
Methyl 3-(4-methoxyphenyl)prop-2-enoate
The title molecule, C(11)H(12)O(3), is almost planar, with an average deviation of the C and O atoms from the least-squares plane of 0.146(4)A. The geometry about the C=C bond is trans. The phenyl ring and -COOCH(3) group are twisted with respect to the double bond by 9.3(3) and 5.6(5) degree, respectively. The endocyclic angle at the junction of the propenoate group and the phenyl ring is decreased from 120 degree by 2.6(2) degree, whereas two neighbouring angles around the ring are increased by 2.3(2) and 0.9(2) degree. This is probably associated with the charge-transfer interaction of the phenyl ring and -COOCH(3) group through the C=C double bond. The molecules are joined together thro…
