Conclusion

The crystal structure of the compound shows that the dichloropyrimidine and methoxyphenoxy parts are approximately perpendicular to each other.

Supporting Evidence

  • The dihedral angle between the two pyrimidine rings is 36.3°.
  • The molecules are linked by short intermolecular C⋯N contacts and C—H⋯π interactions.

Takeaway

Scientists studied a chemical compound and found that its parts are arranged in a special way, like two sticks crossing each other at a right angle.

Methodology

The compound was synthesized and its crystal structure was analyzed using X-ray diffraction.
