Abstract top

The C=C double-bond in the title compound, C13H13ClO3, has a Z configuration. The aliphatic substituents at one end of the double bond, i.e. the CH3CO- and C2H5O2C- groups, are aligned at 82.1 (3)° with respect to each other.

Comment top

Trizma is a mildly-basic primary aminoalcohol that catalyzes Knoevenagel condensation reactions. The yield can be high under microwave irradiation; the title compound has been synthesized albeit by a conventional route. The carbon-carbon double-bond in C13H13ClO3 has a Z-configuration. The aliphatic substituents at one end of the double-bond, i.e., the CH3CO– and planar C2H5O2C– groups, are aligned at 82.1 (3) ° with respect to each other. Bond dimensions in the molecule compare favorably with those found in similar molecules (Deng et al., 2007; Shi, 2008).

Experimental top

Trizma (0.01 mol), p-chlorobenzaldehyde (0.01 mol) and ethyl acetoacetate (0.02 mol) were heated in ethanol (50 ml) for 3 h. The reaction was monitored with TLC. The solid that separated was collected and recrystallized from ethanol to give a colorless crystals, m.p. 373 K (60% yield).

Refinement top

Carbon-bound H-atoms were placed in calculated positions [C–H 0.93 to 0.97 Å; U(H) 1.2 to 1.5U(C)] and were included in the refinement in the riding model approximation, with U(H) set to 1.2 to 1.5U(C).
