Chains approximately parallel to (-1-12) are then built through C(methylene,phenyl)¨CH...O(carbonyl) interactions [C(6) and C(8) motifs] with one (methyl)C¡ªH...¦Ð interaction providing interplanar binding. The weakness of the latter interaction is consistent with the difficulty experienced in obtaining suitable single crystals. %U http://scripts.iucr.org/cgi-bin/paper?S1600536813000780
