(Received 20 February 2009; accepted 28 February 2009; online 6 March 2009)

In the title compound, C14H15NO, the seven-membered ring exhibits a slightly distorted twist-boat conformation. The pyrrole ring forms a dihedral angle of 1.44 (10)° with the fused benzene ring. N—H⋯O hydrogen bonds form a centrosymmetric dimer and weak C—H⋯π inter­actions are also found in the crystal structure.

Comment top

The title compound has been analysed as part of our crystallographic studies on cyclohept[b]indoles and their substituted analogues. Sridharan et al.(2008) have reported the X-ray crystal sructure of the related compound, 7,8,9,10-tetrahydro-2-methylcyclohepta[b]indol-6(5H)-one. In that paper, the seven-membered ring is stated to exhibit a slightly distorted envelope conformation.

In the title compound, C14H15NO (Fig. 1), the seven-membered ring exhibits a slightly distorted twist-boat conformation. The pyrrole ring forms a dihedral angle of 1.44 (10)° with the fused benzene ring.

N5—H5···O6(-x, -y, -z) hydrogen bonds form a centrosymmetric dimer. Furthermore, C10—H10A···π(1- x, -y, -z) and C14—H14C···π(1/2-x, -1/2+y, 1/2-z) interactions involving the pyrrole ring are present. Additionally, a C8—H8A···π(1-x, -y, -z) interaction involving the benzene ring are also found in the crystal structure.

Experimental top

A solution of 2-(2-(1-methylphenyl)hydrazono)cycloheptanone (0.230 g, 0.001 mol) in a mixture of acetic acid (20 ml) and conc. hydrochloric acid (5 ml) was refluxed on an oil bath pre-heated to 398–403 K for 4 h. The reaction was monitored by TLC. After the completion of the reaction, the contents were cooled and poured into ice water with stirring. The separated brown solid was filtered and purified by passing through a column of silica gel and eluting with a petroleum ether-ethyl acetate (95:5 v/v) mixture to yield the title compound (0.140 g, 66%). This product was recrystallized using ethanol.

Refinement top

H5 attached to N5 was located in a difference Fourier map and refined isotropically; the final N—H distance was 0.94 (3) Å. The remaining H atoms were positioned geometrically and allowed to ride on their parent atoms, with C—H = 0.93, 0.96 and 0.97 Å for Csp2, methyl and methylene H atoms, respectively. Uiso(H) = xUeq(C), where x = 1.5 for methyl H atoms and 1.2 for other C-bound 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.
