The title compound, C12H13ClO2, was prepared by the direct asymmetric intermolecular aldol reaction of cyclopentanone and 4-chlorobenzaldehyde catalysed by L-tryptophan in water. The absolute molecular structure was determined to be a racemic twin with 91% (2R,3R) isomer and 9% of the (2S,3S) form. In the the molecules are connected into a one-dimensional chain along the a axis through the formation of intermolecular O—H⋯O hydrogen bonds. Further, non-conventional C—H⋯O and C—H⋯π contacts are observed in the structure, which consolidate the crystal packing.

4-chlorobenzaldehyde (71 mm g, 0.5 mmol) and cyclopentanone (0.5 ml) was added to a solution of L-tryptophan (30.6 mg, 0.15 mmol) and pure water (0.5 ml) at room temperature. The mixture was stirred, monitored by TLC. The mixture was quenched with a saturated aqueous NaHCO3 solution and extracted by ethyl acetate (3× ml). The resulting solvent was removed in vacuo to yield the crude product. Purification by silica gel ~200 mesh ZCX II eluted by hexane-ethyl acetate (3:1, v/v) gave the yellow solid (70 mg, yield 63%). The crystalline compound was obtained through the slow of ethyl acetate containing the title compound.
using 100All H atoms were positioned geometrically and treated as riding, with C—H bond lengths constrained to 0.95 Å (aromatic CH), 0.99 Å (methylene CH2), or 0.92 Å (hydroxy), and with Uĩso~(H) = 1.2Ueq(C) or 1.5Ueq(methylene C). Moreover, the
was refined as 0.09 (3) and indicates a possible racemic twin of about 10%. This may be because the number of measured Friedel pairs is relatively low. 572 Friedel pairs were measured, which is a fraction of measured Friedel pairs of 0.419, as indicated in the check.cif of PLATON (Spek, 2003).Data collection: APEX2 (Bruker, 2004); cell

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 direct asymmetric aldol reaction is one of the most important C—C bond-forming reactions (Notz et al., 2004.). It is not surprising that a large number of catalysts and methods have been developed to achieve efficient adducts with high diastereo- and enantioselectivities (Córdova et al. 2006; Torii et al. 2004.). Our primary results demonstrating that acyclic amino acids could catalyze the direct stereoseletive aldol reaction in water micelles (Deng & Cai, 2007). In this contribution, as an extension to our previous studies, we report the synthesis and crystal structure of the title compound.
In the title compound (Fig. 1.), the bond lengths and angles are within ranges as reported by Li (2007). The structural analysis reveals that the absolute molecular structure was a (2R, 3R)- isomer. The most striking feature of the title compound is the interesting arrangement of the title molecules, which connect each other to form a one-dimension chain along the a axis by intermolecular O—H···O hydrogen bonds (Fig. 2). Furthermore, the weak non-conventional intermolecular C—H···π contact is observed, in which C5—H5A is donor and the chlorophenyl ring Cg2 (C1, C2, C3, C4, C12, C5) is π acceptor (Umezawa et al., 1999). This contact, with additional intermolecular C—H···O interactions (Nangia et al. 2002), further consolidate the crystal packing. Details of hydrogen bonds are given in Table 1.
