In the molecule of the title compound, C18H14FN3O2, the imidazole and dihydropyridine rings are nearly coplanar with a dihedral angle of 2.46 (3)°, while the cyclohexene ring has an envelope conformation. The benzene ring is oriented with respect to the coplanar ring system at a dihedral angle of 81.45 (2)°. In the crystal structure, intermolecular N-H
N hydrogen bonds link the molecules into dimers.
The title compound, (I), was prepared by the reaction of 4-fluorobenzaldehyde (124 mg, 1 mmol), 2-(3-oxocyclohex-1-enylamino)acetic acid (169 mg, 1 mmol) with malononitrile (66 mg, 1 mmol) in solvent of ethylene glycol (2.0 ml) at 393 K under microwave irradiation (maximum power 200 W, initial power 100 W) for 5 min. Single crystals suitable for X-ray analysis were obtained from an ethanol solution (95%) by slow evaporation (yield; 284 mg, 88%, m.p. 559–560 K).
H atoms were positioned geometrically with N—H = 0.86 Å (for NH) and C—H = 0.93, 0.98 and 0.97 Å for aromatic, methine and methylene H atoms, respectively, and constrained to ride on their parent atoms, with Uiso(H) = 1.2Ueq(C,N).

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. |

1,4-Dihydropyridines (1,4-DHPs) are well known compounds because of their pharmacological profiles as calcium channel modulators (Stout & Meyers, 1982). With a 1,4-DHPs parent nucleus, imidazo[1,2-a]quinoline belongs to a class of compounds which are special not only because of their interesting chemical and physical properties, but also due to their immense utility in the pharmaceutical industries. The discovery of imidazo[1,2-a]quinoline including imidazo[1,2-a]- pyridine moiety, as new potential pharmacological molecules, may be of great significance. It is well established that the chemical modifications on the imidazo[1,2-a]pyridine skeletons may bring remarkable changes of biological activity (Gueiffier et al., 1996; Elhakmaoui et al., 1994). We report herein the crystal structure of the title compound, (I).
In the molecule of the title compound, (I), (Fig. 1) the bond lengths and angles are generally within normal ranges (Allen et al., 1987).
Ring A (C1—C6) is not planar, having total puckering amplitude, QT, of 0.488 (3) Å, [φ = −64.74 (3)°, θ = 117.65 (3)°] (Cremer & Pople, 1975), and adopts an envelope conformation with atom C3 displaced by −0.663 (3) Å from the plane of the other ring atoms. Rings B (N1/C1/C6—C9), C (N1/N2/C9—C11) and D (C13—C18) are, of course, planar and rings B and D are also nearly coplanar with a dihedral angle of 2.46 (3)°. Ring D is oriented with respect to the coplanar ring system at a dihedral angle of 81.45 (2)°.
In the crystal structure, the intermolecular N—H···N hydrogen bonds (Table 1) link the molecules into dimers (Fig. 2), in which they seem to be effective in the stabilization of the structure.
