In the title compound, C21H17NO, the phenyl ring directly linked to the carbonyl group is oriented at an angle of 7.3 (2)° with respect to the aniline ring, and at an angle of 55.6 (2)° with respect to the other phenyl ring. There is an intramolecular hydrogen bond involving the NH group and the carbonyl O atom. The is stabilized by weak C—H⋯π interactions, which link the molecules into a herringbone arrangement.

A mixture of the 1,3-diphenylpropane-1,3-dione (5 mmol), aniline (5 mmol) and InBr3 (0.05 mmol) was stirred at room temperature for 6 h. After completion of the reaction, the reaction mixture was diluted with H2O (10 ml) and extracted with EtOAc(210 ml). The combined organic layers were dried, concentrated, and then purified by ν 3053, 1592, 1568, 1475, 1441, 1323, 1212, 1079, 1053, 1022, 904, 841, 697 1H NMR (CDCl3, 300 MHz): δ 6.09 (s, 1H), 6.78 (d, 2H), 6.96–7.00 (m, 1H), 7.09–7.14 (m, 2H), 7.26–7.50 (m, 8H), 7.96 (d, 2H), 12.90 (br s, 1H, NH). 13C NMR (CDCl3, 75 MHz): δ 97.0, 123.1, 124.2, 127.2, 128.2, 128.5, 128.7, 129.6, 131.3, 135.8, 139.4, 139.8, 161.4, 189.6.

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. |

β-enamino ketones are a highly versatile class of intermediates for the synthesis of natural therapeutic and biologically active analogues (Dondoni & Perrone, 1993; Ferraz et al., 1995; Michael et al., 2001; Azzaro et al., 1981). Pyrroles, oxazoles, pyridinones, quinolines, dibenzodiazepines have also been prepared from enaminones (Alberola et al., 1999; Chaaban et al., 1979; Augusti & Kascheres, 1993; Bejan et al., 1998; Eberlin & Kascheres, 1988). It is therefore not surprising that many synthetic methods have been developed for the preparation of these compounds (Greenhill, 1977; Michael et al., 1999; Elassar & El-Khair, 2003). During our development of new environmentally friendly methodologies for the preparation of β-enamino ketones (Zhang et al., 2006), we synthesized the title compound, (I), the structure of which is reported here.
The molecular structure of compound (I) is illustrated in Fig. 1. The geometry of the enamine double bond is Z, with hydrogen bonding of the enamine N—H to the carbonyl oxygen atom (Table 1). Phenyl ring A (C1-C6) forms dihedral angles of 7.3 (2)° and 55.6 (2)° with the aniline ring C (C16-C21) and the phenyl ring B (C10-C15), respectively. As in other β-enamino ketones compound (I) displays electron delocalization, as shown by the comparison of the N1—C9 [1.347 (6)°] and N1—C16 [1.417 (6) Å] bond lengths.
The crystal structure of compound (I) is stabilized by weak C—H···π interactions, which link the molecules into a herringbone chain (Fig. 2). The distance of the H atom to the centroid of the benzene ring is 2.834 (10) Å.
