Abstract top

The title compound, C22H15ClO4, containing three chiral C atoms, is an intermediate in the design of chiral alcohols. In the crystal structure, a chain structure is generated through C-H...O contacts and an intramolecular C-H...O interaction also occurs. The dihedral angle between the benzene ring and the naphthalene system is 16.5°.

Comment top

Epoxides are well known as one of the most valuable building blocks used as intermediates and precursors for pharmaceuticals (Yamazaki, 2008; Aronne, et al., 2008). The title compound, (I), is a key intermediate in the preparation of chiral alcohols, which we are designing for potential use as antiviral agents. The structure of (I), Fig. 1, provides information on the potential stereoselectivity of its ring-opening reactions (Sasidharan et al., 2002; Wang et al., 2003). The molecule of (I) contains six fused rings with the three aromatic rings almost coplanar. The six-membered carbocyclic ring adopts a slightly twisted boat conformation and the pyran ring is nearly planar. The epoxy group points in the same direction as the OCH2CH2Cl group, having a syn relationship. In the crystal structure, molecules of (I) associate in a head-to-tail manner, parallel to the b axis, via O-H···O hydrogen bonds to form a 1D structure, Fig. 2 and Table 1.

Experimental top

Compound (I) was obtained by epoxidation of 13c-(2-chloroethyloxy)-1-oxo-1,13c-dihydrodibenzo[a,kl]xanthene in methanol with aqueous hydrogen peroxide (30%) under mild reaction conditions (Tan et al., 2001). Compound (I) was the main product, isolated in a yield of 92%. Crystals suitable for X-ray analysis were obtained from the slow evaporation of an acetone solution (m.p. 527–529 K). IR (KBr disk): 3409, 2905, 2359, 1720 (s, C=O), 1454, 1267, 1097, 776, 755, 508 cm-1. 1H NMR (300 MHz in CDCl3/TMS): 3.15–3.25 (m, 2H), 3.27–3.38 (m, 2H), 4.04 (d, J = 3.9 Hz, 1H), 4.34 (d, J = 3.9 Hz, 1H), 7.24–7.26 (m, 1H), 7.27 (d, J = 9.0 Hz, 1H), 7.34–7.49 (m, 4H), 7.78–7.79 (m, 1H), 7.86 (d, J = 9.0 Hz, 1H), 7.96–8.02 (m, 1H) p.p.m. FAB-MS (m/z): 299(M+ –OCH2CH2Cl).

Refinement top

The hydrogen atoms were placed in geometrically idealized positions with C—H = 0.95 - 1.00 Å and constrained to ride on their parent atoms with Uiso(H) = 1.2Ueq(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 > 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.
