4-Chloro-2-((1 R )-1-{[( R )-(2-chlorophenyl)(cyclopentyl)methyl]amino}ethyl)phenol

The title compound, C20H23Cl2NO, was prepared by condensation of (R)-1-(2-chlorophenyl)-1-cyclopentylmethanamine with 1-(5-chloro-2-hydroxyphenyl)ethanone, resulting in the formation of a new chiral center. The structural analysis confirms the absolute configuration of the title compound and the formation of the (R,R) diastereoisomer. There is an intramolecular O-H...N hydrogen bond which stabilizes the conformation of the molecule. The molecules are linked to each other through weak C-H...π interactions.
