Abstract

X-ray analysis was used to determined the structure of 1-phenyl-2-chloro-3-(m-nitrophenyl)-2,3-epoxypropanone, obtained by reacting phenacyl dihydrochloride with metanitrobenzaldehyde under Darzen's reaction conditions. The bulky m-nitrophenyl and benzoyl substituents were located in the trans position relative to the chloroepoxide fragment, which was found to stabilize when the m-nitrophenyl substituent was introduced.
