Abstract top

In the title molecule, C19H19Cl2NO, the piperidine ring adopts a chair conformation and the dihedral angle between the two benzene rings is 77.23 (7)°. In the crystal structure, molecules are linked by N-H...O and C-H...O hydrogen bonds, and a weak C-H...[pi] interaction is also observed.

Comment top

Piperidones are an important group of heterocyclic compounds in the field of medicinal chemistry due to their biological activities, including cytotoxic and anticancer properties (Dimmock et al., 2001). Piperidones were also reported to possess analgesic, anti-inflammatory, central nervous system (CNS), local anaesthetic, anticancer and antimicrobial activity (Perumal et al., 2001). The design and synthesis of conformationally anchored molecules is an important approach towards improving potency and selectivity. One such class of compounds constitutes piperidin-4-ones and their derivatives, whose synthesis and stereodynamics are well investigated (Ponnuswamy et al., 2002). The crystal structure of r-2,c-6-Bis(4-chlorophenyl)-t-3-isopropyl-1-nitrosopiperidin-4-one has been reported, wherein the piperidine ring adopts a chair conformation (Gayathri et al., 2008).

In the title molecule, C19H19Cl2NO (Fig. 1), the piperidine ring adopts a chair conformation. The phenyl rings at position 2,6 and one of the methyl groups attached to the piperidine ring in 3, have equatorial orientations. The dihedral angle between the two phenyl rings is 77.23 (7)°. In the crystal, the molecules are linked by N1—H1···O4 (x - 1/2, 1/2 - y, z) and C23—H23···O4(x - 1/2, -y + 1/2, z - 1) hydrogen bonds (Table 1). Further, a C31—H31B···π interaction involving the phenyl ring (C61—C66) at position 6 also present in the crystal structure.

Experimental top

The procedure adopted for the preparation of the title heterocyclic compound is similar to that of Noller & Baliah (1948). Ammonium acetate (7.7 g, 0.1 mol), 4-chlorobenzaldehyde (28.1 g, 0.2 mol) and 3-methyl-2-butanone (10.7 ml, 0.1 mol) were dissolved in 70 ml of rectified spirit. The resulting solution was heated to boiling and set aside for a day. The oily base obtained was converted into its hydrochloride by the addition of concentrated hydrochloric acid and the separated solid was filtered. Then the hydrochloride was neutralized with liquid ammonia. The resulting solid was filtered and purified by recrystallization from ethanol to yield colourless plates of (I). The yield of the product obtained was 28.65 g (82%).

Refinement top

Atom H1 attached to N1 was located in a difference fourier map and refined isotropically. The remaining H atoms were positioned geometrically and allowed to ride on their parent atoms, with C—H = 0.95, 0.98, 0.99 and 1.00 Å for Csp2, methyl, methylene and methine C, respectively; Uiso(H) = kUeq(C), where k = 1.5 for methyl and 1.2 for all other H atoms.

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.
