Crystal structure and Hirshfeld surface analysis of (2E)-3-(3-chloro­phen­yl)-1-(3,4-di­meth­oxy­phen­yl)prop-2-en-1-one

In title compound, C(17)H(15)ClO(3), the dihedral angle between the benzene and chloro­phenyl rings is 18.46 (7)°. In the crystal, mol­ecules are linked by C—H⋯O hydrogen contacts, enclosing an R (2) (2)(14) ring motif, and by a further C—H⋯O hydrogen contact, forming a two-dimensional supra­molecular structure extending along the direction parallel to the ac plane. Hirshfeld surface analysis shows that van der Waals inter­actions constitute the major contribution to the inter­molecular inter­actions, with H⋯H contacts accounting for 36.2% of the surface.
