Crystal Packing and Supramolecular Motifs in Four Phenoxyalkanoic Acid Herbicides—Low-Temperature Redeterminations

الملخص EN

A low-temperature redetermination by X-ray crystallography of four phenoxyalkanoic acid herbicides, 4-chloro-2-methylphenoxyacetic acid (MCPA), rac-2-(4-chloro-2-methylphenoxy)propionic acid (MCPP), 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D), and 2,4-dichlorophenoxybutyric acid (2,4-DB), allowed the supramolecular structures of these compounds to be precisely described in terms of C⋯O/C–H⋯π interactions.

The geometric parameters of the redetermined structures agree with those previously reported, but with improved precision.
