2-[(2-Aminophenylimino)(phenyl)methyl]-4,6-dichlorophenol

Abstract top

The title compound, C19H14Cl2N2O, a tridentate Schiff base, has been synthesized and structurally characterized by X-ray structure analysis. The hydroxy and imino groups are involved in a resonance-assisted O-H...N hydrogen bond [O...N = 2.502 (3) Å]. Intermolecular N-H...O hydrogen bonds further stabilize the crystal packing.

Comment top

In the title compound, (I), (Fig. 1), the atom N2 lies in the planes of imino-phenyl and hydroxy-phenyl groups. The dihedral angle formed by the two phenyls is 43.51 (7)°. The C7N2 (1.298 (3) Å), C7—C14 (1.475 (4) Å) and O1—C19 (1.330 (3) Å) bond lengths are shorter than normal CN (1.32 Å), C—C (1.54 Å) and O—C (1.44 Å) bonds (Allen et al., 1987). The C14—C19 bond length (1.424 (4) Å) is longer than a normal CC bond (1.40 Å in benzene). These differences in bond lengths are related to a resonance-assisted hydrogen bond (RAHBA) acting between molecules with conjugated multiple π bonds (Gilli et al., 2000). Intermolecular N—H···O hydrogen bonds further stabilize the crystal packing. In the related 4-chlorophenyl compound similar resonance-assisted O—H···N hydrogen bonding was reported (Ai et al., 2006).

Experimental top

4,6-Dichloro-2-hydroxybenzophenone was prepared via the Fries rearrangement of 3,5-dichlorophenyl benzoate. Then this ketone (26.7 g, 0.1 mol), o-phenylenediamine (10.8 g, 0.1 mol), piperidine (9.4 g, 0.11 mol), and triethylorthoformate (16 ml) were refluxed in anhydrous ethanol (100 ml) to give a red product of the mono-condensed Schiff base 2-[(2-aminophenylimino)-phenylmethyl]-4,6-dichlorophenol. The precipitated solid was collected by filtration and washed twice with hot methanol. Single crystals suitable for X-ray measurements were obtained by slow evaporation of absolute ethanol and acetic ether (2:1 v/v) at room temperature.

Refinement top

All H atoms were placed in geometrically idealized positions and constrained to ride on their parent atoms, with N—H = 0.86 Å, C—H = 0.93 Å and O—H = 0.85 Å, and with Uiso(H) = 1.2Ueq(C) for the aromatic H atoms or 1.2Ueq(parent) for the other atoms. H atoms were positioned geometrically (C—H = 0.93 Å) and allowed to ride on their parent atoms with Uiso(H) = 1.2 times Ueq(C).

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 > 2sigma(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.
