In the title compound, C18H22ClNO5, the cyclohexene ring adopts a distorted half-chair conformation. The molecular structure is stabilized by pairs of intramolecular N-H
O and O-H
O interactions, generating S(6) motifs. In the crystal, the molecules are linked by intermolecular C-H
O interactions, forming centrosymmetric dimers.
A mixture of 3-chlorobenzaldehyde (1 equvi) and methyl acetoacetate (2 equvi) and 40% methylamine solution (1 equvi) in ethanol was kept in hot water bath for about 30 minutes. It was kept aside for a day. The separated solid was recrystallized from ethanol.
The C bound H atoms positioned geometrically (C—H = 0.93–0.98 Å) and allowed to ride on their parent atoms, with 1.5Ueq(C) for methyl H and 1.2 Ueq(C) for other H atoms.

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. |

The title compound has been obtained as a minor product during the synthesis of 2,4-bismethoxycarbonyl-3-(3-chlorophenyl)- 5-hydroxy-5-methylcyclohexanone (Pandiarajan et al., 2005). The synthesized cyclohexanone has been purified by the recrystallization process in ethanol solvent. The expected compound regenerated and settled as powder along with some small crystals. The obtained crystals were analysed by single-crystal XRD and the results clearly evidence the formation of the title compound.
The ORTEP diagram of the title compound is shown in Fig.1. The cyclohexane ring adopts a distorted half-chair conformation with the puckering parameters (Cremer & Pople, 1975) and the smallest displacement asymmetry parameters (Nardelli, 1983) being q2 = 0.4038 (16) Å, q3 = -0.3083 (16) Å, QT = 0.5080 (16) Å, and θ = 127.36 (18)°. Atom Cl1 deviates from the plane of the C1—C6 benzene ring by 0.034 (1) Å.
The crystal packing is stabilized by C—H···O intermolecular interactions. The molecular structure is stabilized by N—H···O and O—H···O hydrogen bonds, wherein, atom N1 and O3 act as donor to O1 and O4, to generate S(6) motifs, respectively. In the crystal structure, the molecules at (x, y, z) and (1 - x,1 - y,1 - z) are linked by C(15)—H(15B) ···O(1) hydrogen bonds, generating a centrosymmetric dimeric ring motif R22(14) (Bernstein et al., 1995).
