Crystal structure of 2-[chloro(4-methoxyphenyl)methyl]-2-(4-methoxyphenyl)-5,5-dimethylcyclohexane-1,3-dione

One of the methyl groups and the 4-methoxyphenyl substituent are in axial positions and the chloro(4-methoxyphenyl)methyl substituent is in the equatorial position of the cyclohexane ring which adopts a chair conformation. The packing features inversion-symmetric dimeric units and strands along [100] and [010] established by weak C—H⋯O and C—H⋯Cl contacts.
