(E)-1,5-Diphenylpent-2-en-4-yn-1-one
The title compound, C17H12O, has an E conformation about the C=C bond. The C—C[triple-bond]C—C torsion angle is 7.7 (2)°, and the mean planes of the phenylethylenone [r.m.s. deviation = 0.059 (1) Å] and phenylacetylene [r.m.s. deviation = 0.023 (1) Å] fragments form a dihedral angle of 14.16 (7)°. In the crystal, weak C—H...O interactions link the molecules into zigzag chains propagated in [010]
