Abstract

The 1,2-(bis-phenoxy)ethane family of molecules have a number of possible conformations in the crystalline state due to the flexible nature of the ethane spacer group. Structural trends within this group of molecules were examined via the use of single crystal X-ray data and computational chemistry.
