(E)-2-(2-Nitroprop-1-enyl)thiophene

Z.-B. Li, L.-L. Shen and J.-J. Li

Abstract top

The title compound, C7H7NO2S, adopts an E conformation about the C=C bond. The torsion angle C=C-C-C is -177.7 (3)°. The crystal structure features weak intermolecular by C-H...O interactions.

Comment top

Nitroalkenes are important organic intermediates, since they can be converted to synthetically useful N– and O-containing organic molecules, such as amines, aldehydes, carboxylic acids, or denitrated compounds (Ono, 2001; Berner et al., 2002; Ballini & Petrini, 2004). As a contribution in this field, we have synthesized a series of nitroalkenes by employing benzaldehydes and nitroethane. We report here one of this nitroalkenes, i.e. the crystal structure of the title compound. The C2C3 bond involves the E configuration with the C2—C3—C4—C5 torsion angle of 177.71 (3)° (Fig. 1). The atoms of the thiophene ring are coplanar. The conformation of (I) is stabilized by weak intermolecular by C6—H6···O2' interaction (Fig. 2 and Table 1).

Experimental top

To a solution of thiophene-2-carbaldehyde (50 mmol) in AcOH (25 mL), nitroethane (75 mmol) was added, followed by butylamine (100 mmol, 7.4 mL). The mixture was sonicated at 60 °C, until GC showed full conversion of the aldehyde. The mixture was poured into ice water, the precipitate was filtered off, washed with water and recrystallized from EtOH/EtOAc to give the product. Single crystals were obtained by slow evaporation of an cyclohexane-EtOAc solution (10:1, v/v).

Refinement top

All H atoms were placed in calculated positions and refined using a riding model, with C—H = 0.93–0.96 Å, and with Uiso(H) = 1.2 Ueq(C) or 1.5 Ueq(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.
