In common with other isocoumarin-based molecules, the planar fused ring system [maximum deviation 0.05(2)A] in the title molecule, ethyl 1-oxo-6,7-bis(trifluoromethyl)-1H-2-benzopyran-3-carboxylate, C 14 H 8 F 6 O 4 , contains a non-delocalized double bond [C=C 1.34(2)A]. Pairs of molecules form π-bonded dimers, centred on inversion points at y = 1/4 and 3/4 [closest interplanar C...C approach 3.59 (3) A] Consequently, the crystal structure is composed of alternating aromatic (y = 1/4 or 3/4) and aliphatic zones (y = 0 or 1/2). |
