The title 1,4-dioxane solvate, C8H4FNO2·C4H8O2, was isolated during a manual crystallization screen on 7-fluoro­isatin (7-fluoro­indoline-2,3-dione). The 7-fluoro­isatin mol­ecule occupies a general position and each of the independent mol­ecules of 1,4-dioxane is disposed about a centre of inversion, with half of each in the asymmetric unit. Hydrogen-bonded ribbons of 7-fluoro­isatin are linked by 1,4-dioxane to form sheets parallel to (30\overline{1}). Whilst one solvent mol­ecule has an active role in the sheet formation, the other simply fills the cavity formed within the sheet.

Comment top

The title solvate, (I), (Figure 1) was isolated during a manual crystallization screen on 7-fluoroisatin. The crystallization screen was motivated by a wider investigation into the potential polymorphism displayed by the isomeric compounds 7-fluoroisatin and 5-fluoroisatin (Mohamed et al., 2007a-c).

The crystal structure of (I) is characterized by hydrogen-bonded ribbons of 7-fluoroisatin which are linked into sheets by 1,4-dioxane molecules. Whilst one dioxane molecule uses both oxygen atoms as hydrogen bond acceptors, the second dioxane molecule in the asymmetric unit does not appear to participate in any intermolecular interactions and simply fills the cavities formed within the sheet (Figure 2 and Table 1). The sheets lie parallel to (3 0 - 1) and are separated by 3.84 Å.

Related literature top

7-Fluoroisatin is reported to be a suitable starting material for the preparation of 7-substituted-2-indolinones, a class of compounds which are understood to display anticonvulsant activity in animals (Canas-Rodriguez & Leeming, 1972). The dimethylsulfoxide solvates of 7-fluoroisatin (Mohamed et al., 2007a) and 5-fluoroisatin (Mohamed et al., 2007b) have also been prepared, as well as the oxindole derivative of 5-fluoroisatin (Mohamed et al., 2007c).

Experimental top

Single crystals of the title compound were crystallized from a saturated 1,4-dioxane solution by slow evaporation at 278 K over the course of 3 weeks.

Refinement top

All H atoms were refined freely so that the C—H distances were in the range 0.944 (18) to 1.006 (16) Å and N—H = 0.92 (2) Å.

Special details top

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.
