2-(5-Bromo-3-methylsulfinyl-1-benzofuran-2-yl)acetic acid

Abstract top

In the title compound, C11H9BrO4S, the O atom and the methyl group of the methylsulfinyl substituent lie on opposite sides of the plane of the benzofuran fragment. The crystal structure is stabilized by intermolecular O-H...O and C-H...O interactions. In addition, the crystal structure exhibits a Br...[pi] interaction of 3.551 (3) Å between the Br atom and the centroid of the benzene ring of an adjacent molecule.

Comment top

This work is related our previous communications on the synthesis and structure of 2-(5-bromo-3-methylsulfinyl-1-benzofuran-2-yl)acetic acid derivatives, viz. methyl 2-(5-bromo-3-methylsulfinyl-1-benzofuran-2-yl)acetate (Choi et al., 2008) and propyl 2-(5-bromo-3-methylsulfinyl-1-benzofuran-2-yl)acetate (Choi et al., 2009). Here we report the crystal structure of the title compound, 2-(5-bromo-3-methylsulfinyl-1-benzofuran-2-yl)acetic acid (Fig. 1).

The benzofuran unit is essentially planar, with a mean deviation of 0.014 (2) Å from the least-squares plane defined by the nine constituent atoms. The molecular packing (Fig. 2) is stabilized by intermolecular O—H···O and C—H···O hydrogen bonds; one between the H atom of carboxyl group and the O atom of the SO unit, a second between a benzene—H atom and the SO unit, a third between a benzene—H atom and the hydroxy group, respectively (Fig. 2 and Table 1; symmetry code as in Fig. 2). Further stability comes from intermolecular C—Br···π interactions between the Br atom and the benzene ring of an adjacent molecule, with a C4—Br···Cgv separation of 3.551 (3) Å (Fig. 2; Cg is the centroid of the C2–C7 benzene ring, symmetry code as in Fig. 2).

Experimental top

Ethyl 2-(5-bromo-3-methylsulfinyl-1-benzofuran-2-yl)acetate (276 mg, 0.8 mmol) was added to a solution of potassium hydroxide (180 mg, 3.2 mmol) in water (15 ml) and methanol (15 ml), and the mixture was refluxed for 5 h, then cooled. Water was added, and the solution was extracted with dichloromethane. The aqueous layer was acidified to pH 1 with concentrated hydrochloric acid and then extracted with chloroform, dried over magnesium sulfate, filtered and concentrated under vacuum. The residue was purified by column chromatography (ethanol) to afford the title compound as a colorless solid [yield 81%, m.p. 472–473 K; Rf = 0.36 (ethanol)]. Single crystals suitable for X-ray diffraction were prepared by evaporation of a solution of the title compound in methanol at room temperature. Spectroscopic analysis: 1H NMR (CDCl3, 400 MHz) δ 3.07 (s, 3H), 4.08 (s, 2H), 7.38 (d, J = 8.6 Hz, 1H), 7.43 (dd, J = 8.6 Hz and J = 1.82 Hz, 1H), 7.80 (d, J = 2.2 Hz, 1H), 10.54 (s, 1H); EI—MS 318 [M+2], 316 [M+].

Refinement top

Atom H2A of the hydroxy group was found in a difference Fourier map and refined freely. The other H atoms were positioned geometrically and refined using a riding model, with C—H = 0.93 Å for aromatic H atoms, 0.97 Å for methylene H atoms and 0.96 Å for methyl H atoms, respectively, and with Uiso(H) = 1.2Ueq(C) for aromatic and methylene H atoms and 1.5Ueq(C) for methyl H atoms.

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.
