Comment top

Chalcones are one of the major classes of natural products have been recently subjects of great interest for their interesting pharmacological activities. Reviews on the bioactivities of varieties of chalcones are described. Recently, it has been noted that, among many organic compounds reported for their second harmonic generation, chalcone derivatives are known for their excellent blue light transmittance and good crystallizability. In continuation of our work on chalcones, the present paper reports the crystal structure of a newly synthesized chalcone. Geometric parameters of the title compound are in the usual ranges. The central C=C double bond is trans configured. The dihedral angle between the two aromatic residues is 41.90 (8)°. The C=C double bond is almost coplanar with the quinolyl residue [C2—C3—C21—C22 10.7 (4)°], but the two atoms of the carbonyl moiety are significantly twisted out of the plane of the dichlorophenyl substituent [O1—C1—C11—C12 - 53.3 (3)°]

Experimental top

To a thoroughly stirred solution of 2,4-dichloroacetophenone (1.89 g, 0.01 mol) and quinoline-8-carbaldehyde (1.57 g, 0.01 mol) in 25 ml me thanol, 5 ml of 40% KOH solution was added. The solution was stirred overnight and filtered. The product was crystallized from (1:1) acetone/toluene mixture (m.p.: 361–371 K). Analysis for C18H11Cl2NO: Found (Calculated): C: 65.79 (65.87); H: 3.32 (3.38); N: 4.23 (4.27).

Refinement top

H atoms were found in a difference map, but they were refined using a riding model with C—H = 0.95Å and Uiso(H) = 1.2Ueq(C).

Geometry. All e.s.d.'s (except the e.s.d. in the dihedral angle between two l.s. planes) are estimated using the full covariance matrix. The cell e.s.d.'s are taken into account individually in the estimation of e.s.d.'s in distances, angles and torsion angles; correlations between e.s.d.'s in cell parameters are only used when they are defined by crystal symmetry. An approximate (isotropic) treatment of cell e.s.d.'s is used for estimating e.s.d.'s involving l.s. planes.

Refinement. Refinement of F2 against ALL reflections. The weighted R-factor wR and goodness of fit S are based on F2, conventional R-factors R are based on F, with F set to zero for negative F2. The threshold expression of F2 > σ(F2) is used only for calculating R-factors(gt) etc. and is not relevant to the choice of reflections for refinement. R-factors based on F2 are statistically about twice as large as those based on F, and R- factors based on ALL data will be even larger.
