The title compound [systematic name: 1-methoxy-2-(3-methylbut-2-enyl)-9H-carbazole-3-carbaldehyde], C19H19NO2, is a natural carbazole which was isolated from the twigs of Clausena lansium. The carbazole ring system is essentially planar with a mean deviation of 0.0068 (10) Å. The aldehyde substituent is approximately co-planar with the attached benzene ring with a torsion angle of −8.58 (14)°, whereas the methoxy group is rotated out of the benzene plane with a torsion angle of −82.17 (11)°. The dihedral angle between the mean planes of the 3-methyl-2-butenyl group and the carbazole ring is 88.06 (5)°. An intermolecular N—H⋯O interaction connects the molecules into a chain along the a axis. The crystal is further consolidated by a C—H⋯O hydrogen bond and two π–π interactions with centroid–centroid distances of 3.6592 (6) and 3.7440 (6) Å.

Twigs of Clausena lansium (6.73 kg) were successively extracted with CH2Cl2 and acetone, over the period of 3 days each at room temperature to provide the crude CH2Cl2 and acetone extracts, respectively. The CH2Cl2 and acetone extracts were combined (34.02 g) and then subjected to quick
over silica gel eluted by gradient of hexane-acetone (100% hexane to 100% acetone) giving seventeen fractions (A—Q). Fraction G (207.1 mg) was subjected to purification by using 20% EtOAc-hexane to yield the title compound (27.1 mg). Yellow block-shaped single crystals of the title compound suitable for x-ray were recrystallized from CH2Cl2/acetone (1:1, v/v) after several days (m.p. 344–345 K).The H atom attached to N1 was located in a difference map and was isotropically refined. The remaining H atoms were placed in calculated positions with C—H = 0.93 Å for aromatic and CH, 0.97 for CH2 and 0.96 Å for CH3 atoms. The Uiso values were constrained to be 1.5Ueq of the
for methyl H atoms and 1.2Ueq for the remaining H atoms. A rotating group model was used for the methyl groups. The highest residual electron density peak is located at 0.70 Å from C8 and the deepest hole is located at 0.91 Å from C11.Data collection: APEX2 (Bruker, 2005); cell

Experimental. The crystal was placed in the cold stream of an Oxford Cryosystems Cobra open-flow nitrogen cryostat (Cosier & Glazer, 1986) operating at 100.0 (1) K. |
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. |

Clausena lansium (Wampee) belongs to the Rutaceae family. Several parts of this plant have been used as folk medicine in China and Taiwan, for example, the leaves have been used for the treatment of coughs, asthma and gastro-intestinal diseases and the seeds for gastro-intestinal diseases such as acute and chronic gastro-intestinal inflammation and ulcers (Adebajo et al., 2009). In addition, the fruits are used for influenza, colds and abdominal colic pains in Philippines (Lin, 1989). In previous studies, a number of coumarins (Ito et al., 1998; Kumar et al., 1995) and alkaloids (Lin, 1989; Yang et al., 1988) have been isolated from different parts of this plant. As part of our continuing study on the chemical constituents and bioactive compounds from Thai medicinal plants, we report herein the crystal structure of the title compound (I), which was isolated from the twigs of Clausena lansium were collected from Nan province in the northern part of Thailand.
In the structure of (I), C19H19NO2 (Fig. 1), the carbazole ring system (C1–C12/N1) is essentially planar with a mean deviation of 0.0068 (10) Å. The aldehyde substituent is planarly attached to the benzene ring. The methoxy group is in an (+)-anti-clinal [torsion angle C19–O1–C11–C10 = 101.43 (10)°] whereas the 3-methyl-2-butenyl is in an (-)-syn-clinal [C9–C10–C14–C15 = -71.91 (11)°] conformation with respect to the attached benzene ring. The dihedral angle between the 3-methyl-2-butenyl moiety and the mean plane of carbazole ring is 88.06 (5)°. The bond lengths and angles in (I) are within normal ranges (Allen et al., 1987) and are comparable to the related structure (Fun et al., 2007).
In the crystal packing (Fig. 2), an N—H···O intermolecular interaction connects the molecules into one dimensional chains along the [1 0 0] direction. The crystal is further consolidated by C—H···O (Table 1) and π···π interactions with the Cg1···Cg2 distance = 3.7440 (6) Å and Cg2···Cg3 = 3.6592 (6) Å [symmetry code: (1 - x, 1 - y, -z) for both Cg···Cg]. Cg1, Cg2 and Cg3 are the centroids of C1–C6–C7–C12–N1, C1–C6 and C7–C12 rings, respectively.
