The title compound, C14H16N2O3, belongs to a group of of 2-oxo- and 1,2,3,4-tetrahydropyrimidine-5-carboxylic acids, which exhibit a wide spectrum of biological activities. The dihydropyrimidine ring adopts a screw-boat conformation. The crystal packing is stabilized by strong N—H⋯O and weak C—H⋯O intermolecular hydrogen bonds. An intramolecular C—H⋯O hydrogen bond is also present.

A mixture of benzaldehyde (0.106 g, 1 mmol), ethyl acetoacetate (0.130 g, 1 mmol) and urea (0.070 g, 1.17 mmol) was ground with four drops of ortho phosphoric acid for about 30 minutes. The reaction mixture was cooled for 15 minutes and poured into a beaker containing 50 ml of cold water. The precipitate obtained was filtered, washed with water and ethanol to get white solid. Single crystals of the title compound suitable for X-ray diffraction were obtained by slow evaporation of a solution in ethanol (0.26 g, 92% yield; mp 203–204).
All H atoms were positioned geometrically and allowed to ride on their parent C atoms, with C—H distances fixed in the range 0.93–0.98 Å and N—H distance of 0.86 Å, with Uiso(H) = 1.5Ueq(C) for methyl H atoms and Uiso(H) = 1.2Ueq(C, N) 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 belongs to the group of esters of 2-oxo and -1,2,3,4-tetrahydropyrimidine-5-carboxylic acids, which are known as `Biginelli compounds' (Kappe et al., 1997). It has been suggested that the substituent effect may be attributable to intramolecular hydrogen bonding between the alkoxy oxygen and the proton of the pyrimidine ring NH group (Broughton et al., 1975). Several marine alkaloids having the dihydropyrimidine core unit have been found to show interesting biological activities, such as antiviral, antibacterial and anti-inflammatory (Overman et al., 1995). Many functionalized derivatives are used as calcium channel blockers and antihypertensive agents (Atwal et al., 1991). Against this background and in order to obtain detailed information on its molecular conformation, the structure of the title compound has been determined and the results are presented here.
The bond lengths and angles are comparable with the similar structure reported in the literature (Li et al., 2005). The six membered ring (atoms N1, N2, C7, C8, C9, C10) of the dihydropyrimidine group adopts a screw boat conformation; the puckering parameters are q2 = 0.257 (1) Å and ϕ = 211.7 (2)° (Cremer & Pople, 1975), and the lowest displacement asymmetry parameters ΔS(N1) is 14.4 (1)° (Nardelli, 1983), with atom O1 deviating by -0.116 (1) Å from the least squares plane of the ring.
The dihedral angle between the pyrimidine and benzene rings is 86.5 (1)°, close to the value of 82.8 (6)° found in ethyl 4-(4-hydroxyphenyl)-6-methyl-2-oxo-1,2,3,4-tetrahydropyrimidine-5- carboxylate.
The crystal packing is stabilized by strong N—H···O and C—H···O intermolecular hydrogen bonds (Table 1).
