2,6-Bis(prop-2-ynyloxy)naphthalene

L. Yao and R.-J. Tao

Abstract top

The title compound, C16H12O2, crystallizes with one half-molecule in the asymmetric unit. The molecule lies on an inversion centre, located at the mid-point of the naphthyl group. All non-H atoms are almost coplanar, with a mean deviation from the least-squares plane of 0.0536 (11) Å. Molecules are linked into a three-dimensional framework by a combination of C-H...O and C-H...[pi](arene) hydrogen bonds.

Comment top

The molecule of the title compound (Fig. 1) lies on an inversion center, placed at the midpoint of the naphthyl group. Except for H atoms of the methylenes, all the remaining atoms are almost coplanar, with a mean deviation from the least-square plane to be 0.0675 (11) Å. The bond lengths and angles are normal.

No classical hydrogen bonds or ππ interactions are observed. The molecules of the title complex are linked into a three-dimensional framework by a combination of C—H···O and C—H···π(arene) hydrogen bonds (Fig. 2, Table 1). [Cg1 and Cg2 are the centroids of the C4—C7, C7i, C8 and C4i—C7i, C7, C8i rings, respectively. Symmetry code: (i) -x + 2,-y + 1,-z.]

Experimental top

The title compound was obtaind unintentionally as the product of an attempted synthesis of a network complex (Burchell et al., 2006) based on CoII and 2,6-bis(prop-2-ynyloxy)naphthalene, by evaporation of a methyl alcohol and acetone solution of CoCl2, NaN3 and the title molecule, at 298 K. All chemical reagents were obtained commercially from Alfa Aesar Company and used without further purification.

Refinement top

All the H atoms could be detected in the difference electron density maps. Nevertheless, they were situated into the idealized position and refined using a riding model. C—H = 0.97 Å for the methylene groups and C—H = 0.93 Å for the remaining H atoms. Uiso(H) = 1.2 Ueq (carrier C) for all the H atoms.

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.
