Abstract top

In the molecule of the title compound, C16H12N2O4, the pyridine ring is oriented at the same dihedral angle of 2.92 (3)° with respect to the furan and isoxazole rings, while the dihedral angle between furan and isoxazole rings is 1.34 (3)°. The dihedral angle between the benzene and pyridine rings is 53.23 (3)°. In the crystal structure, intermolecular C-H...O interactions link the molecules into chains. Weak [pi]-[pi] contacts between isoxazole and benzene rings [centroid-centroid distance = 3.969 (3) Å] may further stabilize the structure.

Comment top

Isoxazole is one of the important heterocyclic units, which has been widely used as a key building block for pharmaceutical agents. Its derivatives are endowed with many pharmacological properties, such as hypoglycemic, analgesic, anti-inflammatory, anti-bacterial, anti-cancer and anti-HIV activities (Shin et al., 2005). Besides, they also have agrochemical properties including herbicidal and soil fungicidal activities, thus they have been used as pesticides and insecticides (Pinho & Teresa, 2005). Among the derivatives of isoxazole, isoxazolopyridine has evoked people's interest and concern, since it showed muscle relaxant, anticonvulsant and CNS depressant activities (Tatee et al., 1987). To the best of our knowledge, modification and synthesis of polycyclic-fused isoxazolopyridine have never been reported. Thus, synthesis of structurally diverse isoxazole-based (Chande et al., 2005) small molecules is of great significance. We report herein the crystal structure of the title compound.

In the molecule of the title compound (Fig. 1), the bond lengths (Allen et al., 1987) and angles are within normal ranges. Rings A (O1/C1-C4), B (O3/N2/C6-C8), C (N1/C1/C4-C7) and D (C10-C15) are, of course, planar, and they are oriented at dihedral angles of A/B = 1.34 (3), A/C = 2.92 (3), A/D = 56.13 (4), B/C = 2.92 (3), B/D = 55.97 (4) and C/D = 53.23 (3) °.

In the crystal structure, intermolecular C-H···O interactions (Table 1) link the molecules into chains (Fig. 2), in which they may be effective in the stabilization of the structure. The ππ contact between the isoxazole and phenyl rings, Cg2—Cg4i [symmetry code: (i) x, 3/2 - y, z + 1/2, where Cg2 and Cg4 are centroids of the rings B (O3/N2/C6-C8) and D (C10-C15), respectively] may further stabilize the structure, with centroid-centroid distance of 3.969 (3) Å.

Experimental top

The title compound was prepared by the reaction of 4-methoxybenzaldehyde (1 mmol), tetronic acid (1 mmol) and 3-methylisoxazol-5-amine (1 mmol) in water (2 ml). Crystals suitable for X-ray analysis were obtained by slow evaporation of an aqueous ethanol solution (95%) (yield; 91%, m.p. 504-506 K). IR (cm-1): 1759; 1H NMR (DMSO-d6): 7.56 (d, 2H, J = 8.8 Hz, ArH), 7.12 (d, 2H, J = 8.8 Hz, ArH), 5.49 (s, 2H, CH2), 3.87 (s, 3H, OCH3), 2.16 (s, 3H, CH3); 13C NMR (DMSO-d6): 171.84, 170.16, 167.00, 160.71, 157.07, 149.38, 131.54, 121.73, 113.40, 113.30, 112.89, 68.72, 55.30, 12.86.

Refinement top

H atoms were positioned geometrically, with C-H = 0.93, 0.97 and 0.96 Å for aromatic, methylene and methyl H, respectively, and constrained to ride on their parent atoms, with Uiso(H) = xUeq(C), where x = 1.5 for methyl H and x = 1.2 for all other 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.
