Crystal structure of nuarimol.

ABSTRACT: The title compound [systematic name: (RS)-(2-chloro-phen-yl)(4-fluoro-phen-yl)(pyrimidin-5-yl)methanol], C17H12ClFN2O, is a pyrimidine fungicide. The asymmetric unit comprises two independent mol-ecules, A and B, in which the dihedral angles between the plane of the pyrimidine ring and those of the chloro-phenyl and fluoro-phenyl rings are 71.10 (6) and 70.04 (5)° in mol-ecule A, and 73.24 (5) and 89.30 (5)° in mol-ecule B. In the crystal, O-H⋯N hydrogen bonds link the components into [010] chains of alternating A and B mol-ecules. The chains are cross-linked by C-H⋯F hydrogen bonds and weak C-H⋯π and C-Cl⋯π [Cl⋯ring centroid = 3.7630 (8) Å] inter-actions, generating a three-dimensional network.
