The title compound, C14H16N2O, is a synthetic analogue of quinazolone with pyrrilo, pyrido and azopino rings. The quinazolinic part of the molecule is generally planar within 0.037 (3) Å; the eight-membered ring exhibits an intermediate conformation between the chair and boat forms as it is typical for cyclooctene rings. An ethylene group of the azopino ring is disordered over two positions with a refined occupancy ratio of 0.910 (7):0.090 (7). In the crystal, the H atoms of the aromatic rings form weak C—H⋯O and C—H⋯N hydrogen bonds. One C—H⋯O hydrogen bond leads to the formation of a one-dimensional chain. Another C—H⋯O and a C—H⋯N bond link these chains, generating a three-dimensional network.

The title compound was synthesized on the basis of a well–known method (Shakhidoyatov, et al., 1976). Powder of title compound was dissolved in hot aqueous ethanol and from the solution yellow prismatic crystals were obtained during slow evaporation in a thermostat at a temperature of 313 K.
In the absence of anomalous scatteres and using molybdenum radiation Friedel pairs were merged prior to
The C3 and C4 atoms of the molecule are disordered over two positions (C3, C3', C4, C4'). of the structure by using a free variable for the occupancy led to a ratio for the disordered atoms of 0.910 (7):0.090 (7). The bond lengths of the disordfered hexamethylenic fragment were restrained to be the same within a standard deviation of 0.02 Å.The H atoms bonded to C atoms were placed geometrically (with C—H distances of 0.97 Å for CH2 and 0.93 Å for Car) and included in the

Experimental. Scan width (omega) = 1.56 - 1.68, scan ratio 2theta:omega = 1.00 I(Net) and sigma(I) calculated according to Blessing, (1987). |
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. |

Tricyclic quinazolin-4-ones with polymethylenic fragments and their analogues are widely spread in plants and possess various physiological activities (Shakhidoyatov, 1988). With this in mind the title compound was synthesized (Shakhidoyatov et al., 1976) and its crystal structure has been investigated by single crystal X-ray diffraction.
Figure 1 shows an ortep style plot of the molecular structure of the title compound. An ethylene group of the molecule is disordered over two positions (C3, C3', C4, C4'). Refinement of the structure yielded an occupancy ratio of the disordered atoms (i.e. two conformers) of 0.910 (7):0.090 (7).
The quinazoline part of the molecule is a generally flat within a standard deviation of ±0.037 Å. The electronic system of the N7—C14—N15—C12 fragment of the pyrymidinic ring is delocalized as reflected by the bond lengths. The length of the formal double bond N7═C14 and the single bond C14—N15 in the structure of the title compound are 1.297 (3) and 1.383 (3) Å, respectively, which is in agreement with the range observed in crystals of pyrrilo, pyrido, and azopino quinazolones (Turgunov et al., 1995; Tashkhodzhaev et al., 1995). The length of the C═O bond (1.227 (3) Å) is also compareable to those observed in above mentioned analogues. The eight-membered ring has taken on an intermediate form between a chair and boat conformation typical for cycloectene rings (Barnes et al., 1992).
In the crystal structure of the title compound weak intermolecular C-H···X hydrogen bonds are observed as it is often the case in alkaloids (Rajnikant et al., 2005). The hydrogen bond C8–H8A···O1i leads to the formation of a one dimensional chain. Another C–H···O and a C–H···N bond (C10–H10A···O1iii and a C9–H9A···N7ii) link these chains to generate a three-dimensional network (Fig. 2 and 3; for numerical values and symmetry operators see Table 1).
