The title compound, C17H18O3, prepared by microwave irradiation of benzophenone and dioxane, crystallizes in a racemic mixture that forms one-dimensional chains via strong hydrogen bonding of the hy­droxy group to the adjacent symmetry-generated 1,4-dioxan-2-yl group; the O—H⋯O distance is 1.99 (3) Å and the O—H⋯O angle is 160 (2)°.

Comment

The formation of C—C bonds is an important synthetic step in organic synthesis, and there are several well known methods that efficiently promote this bond-formation process. One frequently used method involves the coupling of carbon radicals generated during photolysis (Ohkura et al., 2004[Ohkura, K., Ishihara, T., Nakata, Y. & Seki, K.-i. (2004). Heterocycles, 62, 213-216.]; Derk et al., 2008[Derk, A. R., Funke, H. H. & Falconer, J. L. (2008). Ind. Eng. Chem. Res. 47, 6568-6572.]), radiolysis (Burr & Strong, 1959[Burr, J. G. & Strong, J. D. (1959). J. Phys. Chem. 63, 873-876.]), oxidation reactions (Beccalli et al., 2007[Beccalli, E. M., Broggini, G., Martinelli, M. & Sottocornola, S. (2007). Chem. Rev. 107, 5318-5365.]; Yu et al., 2009[Yu, W., Du, Y. & Zhao, K. (2009). Org. Lett. 11, 2417-2420.]) and organometallic catalysed reactions (Hartwig, 2008[Hartwig, J. F. (2008). Nature (London), 455, 314-322.]). The known title compound, (I)[link], was synthesized using microwave irradiation to promote C—C bond coupling between dioxane and benzophenone, and was isolated as a racemic mixture upon crystallization. (I)[link] has been prepared previously by UV irradiation of benzophenone in dioxane, and characterized by 1H and 13C NMR and mass spectrometry (Bakar Bin Baba et al., 1985[Bakar Bin Baba, A., Gold, V. & Hibbert, F. (1985). J. Chem. Soc. Perkin Trans. 2, pp. 1039-1043.]; Droste et al., 1969[Droste, W., Scharf, H. D. & Korte, F. (1969). Justus Liebigs Ann. Chem. 724, 71-80.]). However, to date, no crystal structure of (I)[link] has been reported.

[Scheme 1]

The C—C bond coupling between the 2-position C atom of dioxane and the carbonyl C atom of benzophenone results in the formation of a stereocenter at atom C2. Compound (I)[link] crystallizes with one mol­ecule in the asymmetric unit in the noncentrosymmetric space group Cc, which was confirmed using the program PLATON (routines ADDSYM and NEWSYM; Spek, 2009[Spek, A. L. (2009). Acta Cryst. D65, 148-155.]). Two enanti­omeric forms are present and the structure of the S form is shown in Fig. 1[link]. The Hooft analysis parameters P2(true) = 1.000, P3(true) = 1.000, P3(false) = 0.000 and Hooft y = 0.14 (7) obtained from PLATON were used to assign the absolute configuration (Hooft et al., 2008[Hooft, R. W. W., Straver, L. H. & Spek, A. L. (2008). J. Appl. Cryst. 41, 96-103.]).

The C—C and C—O bond distances and associated bond angles around atoms C1 [average = 109.04 (17)°] and C2 [average = 109.48 (14)°] are consistent with sp3 hybridization (Table 1[link]). The C—C and C—O distances, and respective angles, for the phenyl and dioxanyl groups are normal. The phenyl rings adopt a twisted arrangement, minimizing ring-to-ring and H⋯H atom inter­actions, while the dioxanyl group adopts a distorted-chair conformation.

Compound (I)[link] displays inter­molecular O—H⋯O′ hydrogen bonding between dioxanyl and hy­droxy groups (Desiraju, 1995[Desiraju, G. R. (1995). Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. 34, 2311-2327.]). A view of the inter­linked one-dimensional hydrogen-bonded chain of mol­ecules of (I)[link], projected along the crystallographic c axis, is shown in Fig. 2[link], illustrating the strong hydrogen-bonding inter­action, with dimensions as listed in Table 2[link].

Experimental

The synthesis of (I)[link] and 1,1,2,2-tetra­phenyl­ethane-1,2-diol from dioxane and benzophenone has been described in the literature (Droste et al., 1969[Droste, W., Scharf, H. D. & Korte, F. (1969). Justus Liebigs Ann. Chem. 724, 71-80.]). Irradition of a dioxane solution containing benzophenone for 20 h with a mercury arc lamp (340 nm) and a nickel sulfate aqueous filter produces (I)[link] and 1,1,2,2-tetra­phenyl­ethane-1,2-diol as the major products. We have prepared (I)[link] by an alternative method using microwave irradiation by the following procedure. Benzophenone (0.55 mmol) was placed in a 125 ml Erlenmeyer flask containing Zn dust (1.02 mmol), ammonium formate (3.96 mmol) and dioxane (5 ml). The reacta­nts were irradiated in a domestic microwave oven (70% power, 1.05 kW) with a heat sink for three periods of 5 min, yielding an amber-colored solution. Excess dioxane was added, the Zn dust was removed by filtration and the filtrate was concentrated by rotoevaporation. Removal of the solvent yielded an amber-colored oil and white crystals. The white solid was the major product. It was easily removed by filtration with a cold methanol wash and was determined to be 1,1,2,2-tetra­phenyl­ethane-1,2-diol (m.p. 443–444 K). The amber-colored oil was determined to be a mixture of (I)[link] and several unknown by-products. It was purified by chromatography using a 5:2:1 solution of ethyl acetate–toluene–methanol on silica gel. Com­pound (I)[link] was crystallized by slow diffusion of toluene, yielding colorless crystals [m.p. 387 K; literature value 388 K (Bakar Bin Baba et al., 1985[Bakar Bin Baba, A., Gold, V. & Hibbert, F. (1985). J. Chem. Soc. Perkin Trans. 2, pp. 1039-1043.])]. The 1H NMR (CDCl3) spectrum corresponds to that reported in the literature. MALDI–TOF MS: [M + H]+ 271 m/z.

The formation of C—C bonds is an important synthetic step in organic synthesis, and there are several well known methods that efficiently promote this bond-formation process. One frequently used method involves the coupling of carbon radicals generated during photolysis (Ohkura et al., 2004; Derk et al., 2008), radiolysis (Burr & Strong, 1959), oxidation reactions (Beccalli et al., 2007; Yu et al., 2009) and organometallic catalysed reactions (Hartwig, 2008). The known title compound, (I), was synthesized using microwave irradiation to promote C—C bond coupling between dioxane and benzophenone, and isolated as a racemic mixture upon crystallization. The synthesis of (I) has been reported previously (Bakar Bin Baba et al., 1985; Droste et al., 1969) by UV irradiation of benzophenone in dioxane, and characterized by 1H and 13C NMR and mass spectrometry. However, to date, no crystal structure of (I) has been reported.

The C—C bond coupling between the 2-position C atom of dioxane and the carbonyl C atom of benzophenone results in the formation of a stereocenter at atom C2. Compound (I) crystallizes with one molecule in the asymmetric unit in the noncentrosymmetric space group Cc, which was confirmed using the program PLATON (routines ADDSYM and NEWSYM; Spek, 2009). Two enantiomeric forms are present and the structure of the S form is shown in Fig. 1. The Hooft analysis parameters P2(true) = 1.000, P3(true) = 1.000, P3(false) = 0.000 and Hooft y = 0.139 (069) obtained from PLATON were used to assign the absolute structure (Hooft et al., 2008).

The C—C and C—O bond distances and associated bond angles around atoms C1 [average = 109.04 (17)°] and C2 [average = 109.48 (14)°] are consistent with sp3 hybridization. The C—C and C—O distances, and respective angles, for the phenyl and dioxanyl groups are normal. The phenyl rings adopt a twisted arrangement, minimizing ring-to-ring and H···H atom interactions, while the dioxanyl group adopts a distorted-chair conformation.

Compound (I) displays intermolecular O—H···O' hydrogen bonding between dioxanyl and hydroxy groups (Desiraju, 1995). A view of the interlinked one-dimensional hydrogen-bonded chain of molecules of (I), projected along the crystallographic c axis, is shown in Fig. 2, illustrating the strong hydrogen-bonding interaction. The O3···O2i distance is 2.812 (2) Å and the O3—H30A···O2i angle is 160 (2)° between symmetry-related molecules [symmetry code: (i) x, -y + 1, z - 1/2].
