Abstract top

In the title molecule, C16H13FOS, the dihedral angle between the two benzene rings is 8.68 (6)°. The H atoms of the central enone group are trans and one H atom is involved in a close intramolecular C-H...O contact. The crystal structure is stabilized by weak C-H...[pi] interactions.

Comment top

Chalcones either natural or synthetic are known to exhibit various biological activities. They have been reported to possess antioxidant (Anto et al., 1995; Vaya et al., 1997; Mukherjee et al., 2001; Indyah et al., 2000), antimalarial (Chen et al., 1997), antileishmanial(Nielsen et al., 1998), antiinflammatory(Hsin et al., 1998), antitumor(Kumar et al., 2003) and antibacterial activity(Prasad et al., 2005). The presence of a reactive unsaturated keto function in chalcones is found to be responsible for their antimicrobial activity, which may be altered depending on the type and position of substituent on the aromatic rings.

The title compound (Fig. 1) has been analysed as part of our crystallographic studies on chalcones (Thiruvalluvar, Subramanyam, Butcher, Adhikari & Wagle, 2007; Thiruvalluvar, Subramanyam, Butcher, Adhikari & Karabasanagouda, 2007; Thiruvalluvar, Subramanyam, Butcher, Karegoudar & Holla, 2008; Thiruvalluvar, Subramanyam, Butcher, Karabasanagouda & Adhikari, 2008). The dihedral angle between the two benzene rings is 8.68 (6)°. In similar structures, such as 1-(4-aminophenyl)-3-(3-bromophenyl)-prop-2-en-1-one (Sathiya Moorthi et al., 2005), 1-(4-bromophenyl)-3-(3-hydroxy phenyl)prop-2-en-1-one(Moorthi et al., 2005), the dihedral angles between the two rings are 9.6 (1)° and 10.2 (2)°, respectively. The H atoms of the central enone group are trans and one H atom is involved in a close intramolecular C-H···O contact. The crystal structure is stabilized by weak C12—H12···π, C15—H15···π and C25—H25···π interactions (Table 1).

Experimental top

A mixture of 4-acetylthioanisole(16.6 g, 0.1 mol) and 4-fluorobenzaldehyde(12.4 g, 0.1 mol) was stirred in ethanol (30 ml) and then an aqueous solution of KOH (40%, 15 ml) added to it. The mixture was kept overnight at room temperature and then it was poured into crushed ice and acidified with HCl. The solid separated was filtered and crystallized from ethanol. Yield obtained was 85%(23.1 g).

Refinement top

H atoms were positioned geometrically and allowed to ride on their parent atoms, with C—H = 0.95 and 0.98 Å for Csp2 and methyl C, respectively; Uiso(H) = xUeq(C), where x = 1.5 for methyl H and 1.2 for all other H.

Special details top

Geometry. Bond distances, angles etc. have been calculated using the rounded fractional coordinates. All su's are estimated from the variances of the (full) variance-covariance matrix. The cell e.s.d.'s are taken into account in the estimation of distances, angles and torsion angles

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 > 2σ(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.
