Abstract
In the title molecule, C23H15BrO, the prop-2-en-1-one unit is planar and it makes dihedral angles of 20.9 (1) and 45.8 (1)°, respectively, with the 4-bromophenyl ring and the anthracene ring system. The interplanar angle between the 4-bromophenyl ring and the anthracene ring system is 35.52 (7)°. In the crystal structure, molecules are linked into dimers by C—H⋯Br hydrogen bonds, and the dimers are linked into a zigzag network parallel to the bc plane by weak C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds and C—H⋯π interactions involving the central benzene ring of the anthracene ring system.
