Abstract The crystal structures of two stereoisomers of tetraphenyl- and pentaphenyl-substituted cyclopentenes 1 and 2 have been determined by X-ray analysis. An envelope conformation 1E has been ascertained for the cis isomer 1a, whereas the cis, cis isomer 2a, which crystallizes in two different space groups, P1¯ and P21/n, displays a twisted 2T1 conformation. The phenyl substituents are all tilted with respect to the cyclopentene ring in both structures. Compound 1a crystallizes in the space group P21/a with a = 18.553(3), b = 6.006(2), c = 19.355(5), β = 102.67(4)°, and V = 2104.2(g) Å3 for Z = 4; compound 2a I crystallizes in P21/n with a = 10.064(2), b = 20.756(5), c = 12.245(3) Å, β = 95.21(2)°, and V = 2547(1) Å3 for Z = 4; compound 2aII crystallizes in P1¯ with a = 10.117(3), b = 11.750(2), c = 12.359(2) Å, α = 111.25(2), β = 94.84(2), γ = 108.78(2)°, and V = 1262.3(6) Å3 for Z = 2.
