Abstract top

In the title compound, C20H25NO4, the 1,4-dihydropyridine ring adopts a flattened-boat conformation and forms a dihedral angle of 89.77 (8)° with the benzene ring. Intermolecular N-H...O hydrogen bonds result in the formation of extended chains parallel to the b axis.

Comment top

Hantzsch 1,4-dihydropyridines (1,4-DHPS) are biologically active compounds which include various vasodilator, anti-hypertensive, bronchodilator, heptaprotective, anti-tumor, anti-mutagenic, geroprotective and anti-diabetic agents (Gaudio et al., 1994). Nifedipine, Nitrendipine and Nimodipine etc., have found commercial utility as calcium channel blockers (Böcker & Guengerich, 1986; Gordeev et al., 1996). For the treatment of congestive heart failure, a number of DHP calcium antagonists have been introduced (Sunkel et al., 1992; Vo et al., 1995). Some DHPs have been introduced as neuroprotectants and cognition enhancers. In addition, a number of DHPs with platelet anti-aggregatory activity have also been discovered (Cooper et al., 1992).

In the title compound (I, Fig. 1), the bond lengths and angles have normal values and are comparable to closely related structures (Teng et al., 2008; Bai et al., 2009). The dihedral angle between the benzene ring and the mean plane of 1,4-dihydropyridine ring is 89.77 (8)°, indicating that both the rings are perpendicular to each other. The 1,4-dihydropyridine ring adopts a flattened-boat conformation (Boeyens, 1978; Cremer & Pople, 1975) with ring distortions at the nitrogen (Nl) and the tetrahedral carbon (C7). Both atoms are displaced in the same direction from the ring with distances of 0.115 (1) Å and 0.151 (2) Å, respectively, from the plane defined by C8, C9, C10, and C11, and form the apexes of a boat-type conformation (Fossheim et al., 1982).

The crystal packing (Fig. 2) is consolidated by intermolecular N1—H1···O1 hydrogen bonds, Table 1, linking the molecules into chains parallel to the b-axis.

Experimental top

Compound (I) was prepared according to the Hantzsch pyridine synthesis. A mixture of p-tolylaldehyde (10 mmol), ethylacetoacetate (20 mmol) and ammonium acetate (10 mmol) were heated at 353 K for 2 h (monitored by TLC). After completion of the reaction, the mixture was cooled to room temperature and kept for 2 days to obtain the solid product. The solid that formed was washed using diethyl ether. Solid was collected separately and liquid was kept for solidification. The purity of the crude product was checked through TLC and recrystallized using acetone and ether. The compound was characterized by IR and 1H NMR. M.p. 383–385 K. IR (KBr):υ (cm-1), 3358, 2988, 1695, 1652, 1487, 1214;1H NMR (CDCl3): δ 1.23 (t, 6H, J = 8), δ 2.34 (s, 6H), δ 3.72 (s, 3H), δ 4.09 (m, 4H, J = 4), δ 4.94 (s, 1H), δ 5.58 (s, 1H), δ 6.76–7.21 (4H, aromatic).

Refinement top

The N-bound H atom was located in a difference Fourier map and constrained to ride with the parent atom with N-H = 0.84 Å, and with Uiso(H)= 1.2 Ueq(N). C-bound H atoms were positioned geometrically [C—H = 0.93–0.98 Å] and refined using a riding model, with Uiso(H) = 1.2Ueq(C) and 1.5Ueq(methyl-C). A rotating group model was used for the methyl groups.

Special details top

Experimental. The crystal was placed in the cold stream of an Oxford Cyrosystems Cobra open-flow nitrogen cryostat (Cosier & Glazer, 1986) operating at 100.0 (1) K.

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.
