(Received 25 May 2010; accepted 29 May 2010; online 5 June 2010)

The title compound, C11H10ClNO, is close to being planar (r.m.s deviation for the non-H atoms = 0.026 Å). In the crystal, mol­ecules are linked by O—H⋯O hydrogen bonds, generating C(2) chains, and weak C—H⋯π inter­actions and aromatic ππ stacking inter­actions [centroid–centroid distance = 3.713 (3) Å] help to consolidate the structure.

Comment top

The importance and general background of the title compound is given in our earler paper (Roopan et al., 2010).

The molecule of the title compound, (I), (Fig. 1), except the hydroxyl and methyl H atoms, is close to planar (r.m.s deviation 0.026 Å).

An intramolecular C—H···O hydrogen bond generates an S(5) ring motif (Bernstein et al., 1995). Molecules of (I) are linked via O—H···O hydrogen bonds (Table 1, Fig. 2), an intermolecular C–H···π interactions between the aromatic H atoms of the ethenol substituent and the pyridine (N1/C1/C6–C9) ring of an adjacent molecule (Table 1), and π-π stacking interactions helping to stabilize the crystal structure [Cg1···Cg2(x, 1 + y, z) = 3.713 (3) Å, where Cg1 and Cg2 are centroids of the N1/C1/C6–C9 and C1–C6 rings, respectively].

Experimental top

2-Chloro-6-methylquinoline-3-carbaldehyde (206 mg, 1 mmol), sodium borohydride (38 mg, 1 mmol) and catalytic amount of montmorillonite K-10 were taken in an open vessel and the resulting mixture was irradiating at 500 W for 5 min. Ethylacetate was poured into the reaction mixture and filtered off. The filtrated after removal of solvent was subjected to column chromatography packed with silica and ethyl acetate/petroleum ether was used as the eluant. Colourless plates of (I) were grown by solvent evaporation from a solution of the compound in chloroform.

Refinement top

The H atom of the OH group were located in difference map and its positional parameters were refined freely [O1—H1O = 0.79 (6) Å]. The other H atoms were positioned geometrically, with C—H = 0.93–0.97 Å, and refined as riding with Uiso(H) = 1.2 or 1.5 Ueq(C). The value of Rint [0.136] is greater than 0.12. Since the overall quality of the data may be poor due to the crystal quality.

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 on F2 for ALL reflections except those flagged by the user for potential systematic errors. Weighted R-factors wR and all goodnesses of fit S are based on F2, conventional R-factors R are based on F, with F set to zero for negative F2. The observed criterion of F2 > σ(F2) is used only for calculating -R-factor-obs 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.
