A dibenzo­furan derivative: 2-(pent­yloxy)dibenzo[b,d]furan

The title compound, C17H18O2, crystallizes in two-dimensional sheets, in which the 2-(pent­yloxy)dibenzo[b,d]furan mol­ecules are arranged in a head-to-head and tail-to-tail fashion that enables hydro­phobic inter­actions between fully extended 2-pent­oxy chains and π–π stacking between dibenzo­furan rings in adjacent rings. Nearest inter­molecular π-π stacking contacts are 3.3731 (12) A. The mol­ecule is nearly planar with an r.m.s. deviation of 0.0803 A from the mean plane defined by the nineteen non-hydrogen atoms.
