3-[(E)-2-(5,7-Dichloro-8-hydroxyquinolin-2-yl)vinyl]-4-hydroxyphenyl acetate

L. Ponikiewski and J. E. Nycz

Abstract: The two symmetry independent molecules of the title compound, C₁₉H₁₃Cl₂NO₄, show similar conformations with the acetyl group twisted strongly relative to the remaining, virtually flat (r.m.s. deviations = 0.0173 and 0.0065 Å), part of the molecule. The hydroxyl groups of the 8-hydroxyquinoline residues are involved in intramolecular O-HN hydrogen bonds, which, in one case, forms a part of a three-center interaction. Intermolecular O-HO hydrogen bonds assemble the molecules into a one-dimensional polymeric structure extended along the a axis. The 4-hydroxyphenyl group of one molecule forms an O-HO hydrogen bond, in which the hydroxyl H atom is disordered, with its inversion center counterpart.
