Abstract

The title compound, cholesteryl 6[4-(4-pentyloxyphenylethynyl)phenoxy]hexanoate (DMT5), a cholesterol-based dimesogen, crystallizes in the monoclinic space group P21 with the parameters a = 9.812(3) Å, b = 9.713(2) Å, c = 24.179(2) Å, β = 92.48(1)° V = 2302.2(9) Å3, Z = 2, F000 = 836, λ(MoKα) = 0.71069 Å, μ = 0.067 cm 1, final R = 0.0772. The structure has intermolecular hydrogen bonds; it is stabilized by the presence of intermolecular contacts whose spacings are less than van der Waals' radii.
