Description
Summary:The title compound, C17H26O, is a di-ortho-alkyl substituted phenyl ethanone that exhibits a significant twisting of the ketone fragment relative to the aromatic ring [O—C—C—C torsion angle = 89.32 (17)°] due to steric pressure from the ortho-isopropyl groups. One ortho- and the para-isopropyl group exhibit orientational disorder with a refined site occupancy factor of 0.562 (3):0.438 (3).
