Abstract top

In the title compound, C10H13NO, the dihedral angle between the amide group and the phenyl ring is 30.0 (3)°. In the crystal structure, intermolecular N-H...O hydrogen bonds link molecules into one-dimensional chains along the a axis.

Comment top

The isopropylamine moiety is a common structural feature in many pharmaceutical compounds, in particular among β-adrenergic receptor antagonists (β-blockers) (Van Waarde et al., 2004; Kopka et al., 2005). Recent work in our laboratory (Stephenson, Wilson et al., 2008; Stephenson, van Oosten et al., 2008) and others (Van Waarde et al., 2004; Kopka et al., 2005) has focused on developing β-blockers labeled with the positron emitting isotope fluorine-18 (t1/2 = 109.7 min) at the isopropyl moiety for medical imaging with positron emission tomography. It is established that substitution of fluorine into a drug often enhances its biological properties (Smart, 2001). Our goal is to structurally characterize the isopropylamine group for comparison with fluorinated analogs developed in our laboratory. Herein we report the single-crystal X-ray structure of the title compound, (I), (Fig. 1).

The dihedral angle between the essentially planar set of atoms C7/O1/N1/C8 [r.m.s. deviation 0.006 Å] and the benzene ring (C1–C6) in (I) is 30.0 (3)°. In the crystal structure, intermolecular N—H···O hydrogen bonds link molecules into one-dimensional chains along the a axis (Table 1, Fig. 2).

Experimental top

N-Isopropylbenzamide was made according to a literature procedure (Clayden et al., 2006), with minor modifications. Benzoyl chloride (0.825 ml, 7.11 mmol) was added to CH2Cl2 (17 ml, 0.4 M) under nitrogen. The mixture was cooled in an ice bath to 273 K and stirred for 10 min. Isopropylamine (1.8 ml, 21.33 mmol) was added dropwise. Upon completion of this addition the ice bath was removed and the reaction mixture was stirred at room temperature for 1.5 h. When the starting material was consumed (monitored by TLC) the reaction mixture was diluted with H2O (150 ml), extracted with CH2Cl2 (3 × 50 ml), washed with H2O (2 × 100 ml) followed by brine (2 × 100 ml), dried over Na2SO4, and concentrated. No further purification was necessary. Colourless blocks of (I) were obtained by slow evaporation of a solution of the title compound in CDCl3. 1H NMR (CDCl3, 300 MHz) d = 7.78–7.67 (m, 2H), 7.51–7.36 (m, 3H), 5.99 (br, 1H), 4.37–4.18 (m, 1H), 1.25 (d, J = 6.5 Hz, 6H) 13C NMR (CDCl3, 75 MHz) d = 166.9, 135.2, 131.5, 128.7, 127.0, 42.1, 23.1.

Refinement top

In the absence of significant anamlous dispersion effects, Friedel pairs were merged before refinement. The H atoms bonded to C atoms were placed in calculated positions with C—H = 0.95 Å and 0.98 Å (methyl). They were included in the refinement in the riding-model approximation with Uiso(H) = 1.2Ueq(C) or Uiso(H) = 1.5Ueq(C) for methyl H atoms. The position of the H atom bonded to the N atom was refined independently with Uiso(H) = 1.2Ueq(N).

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.
