The title compound, was synthesized by the reaction of trans-1,2-stilbene with nicotinic acid in dichloromethane. The single crystals of (I) suitable for X-ray diffraction were obtained from an ethanol solution by slow evaporation.
The H atoms bonded to N atom were located from difference density maps and refined isotropically. The H atoms bonded to C atoms were located geometrically and treated as riding, with C—H distances of 0.95–1.00 Å and with Uiso(H) = 1.5Ueq(C) for methyl H atoms and 1.2Ueq(C) for others. Due to the absence of heavy atoms corresponding to Si, it was impossible to determine the
in this case. At this stage, the Friedel pairs were merged.Data collection: SMART (Bruker, 2000); cell

Geometry. All esds (except the esd in the dihedral angle between two l.s. planes) are estimated using the full covariance matrix. The cell esds are taken into account individually in the estimation of esds in distances, angles and torsion angles; correlations between esds in cell parameters are only used when they are defined by crystal symmetry. An approximate (isotropic) treatment of cell esds is used for estimating esds 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. |

Synthesis of chiral molecules containing pyridine rings has attracted considerable attention in recent years (Aspinall, et al., 2003; Takenaka, et al., 2006; MacMahon, et al., 2001; Schuster, et al., 2005). In the title compound, (I), C26H20NO2, all bond lengths and angles show normal values (Shi, et al., 2006). The chiral molecule (Figure 1) consists of two benzene rings and two pyridine rings. The dihedral angle between the two benzene ring is 45.28°. The torsion angle C2—C1—C7—O2 is -44.2 (2)°; the torsional angle The packing arrangement in a unit cell of the title molecule is shown in Figure 2.
