In the title compound, C16H16N4O4, the dihedral angle between the aromatic rings is 79.04 (8)° and an intramolecular N—H⋯O hydrogen bond occurs. In the crystal, weak C—H.·O and C—H..π interactions link the molecules, forming sheets.

The title compound was obtained from the condensation reaction of 1-phenyl-2-butanone with dinitrophenylhydrazine. The liquid 1-phenyl-2-butanone (2.0 mmol) was added to a warm solution (323 K) of 2,4-dinitrophenylhydrazine (2.5 mmol) in a mixture of 10 ml of ethanol/ 1 ml of HCl (37%) and allowed to react for 30 minutes. The resulting mixture was extracted with ethylacetate. A solid product was obtained after evaporation of the solvent this was first re-crystallized with ethanol and then with ethylacetate. Slow evaporation of a dichloromethane solution gave orange needles of (I).
H atoms were treated as riding atoms with C—H(aromatic), 0.95 Å, C—H2(aliphatic),0.99 Å, C—H(methyl), 0.98 Å. The H atom attached to N1 was located on a difference map, fixed to 0.85 Å, and then refined as a riding atom. The reflections 101 and 101 were omitted from the as they were obscured by the beamstop.
The molecular geometry and conformation is as expected taking acount of electronic repulsions and steric effects. The orange colour is caused by the conjugation of the nitrophenyl with the –N—N= group. The backbone of the molecule is essentially planar with only the methyl group, C21, and the phenyl group attached to C3 lying out of the plane of the molecule, Fig. 1.
Atom N1 forms an intramolecular hydrogen bond via H1 with atom O122 so forming an R(6) ring, (Bernstein et al., 1995). Atom O142 acts as a hydrogen bond acceptor from donor atoms C3, via H3B, and C32, via H32, thus forming an R21(5) ring which links screw-related molecules into chains running parallel to (101). These chains are linked to form sheets running parallel to the b axis by the C—H···π contact in which C3 acts as a donor atom via H3B to the phenyl ring containing C31, Fig.2.
There is a short intermolecular nitro to nitro group contact between O122···N12(-x + 1.5, y + 1/2, -z + 1/2) of 2.76 Å.
The relevant bonds and angles compare well with those in 2,4-dinitrophenylhydrazine: Wardell et al. 2006.

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 molecular geometry and conformation is as expected taking acount of electronic repulsions and steric effects. The orange colour is caused by the conjugation of the nitrophenyl with the –N—N= group. The backbone of the molecule is essentially planar with only the methyl group, C21, and the phenyl group attached to C3 lying out of the plane of the molecule, Fig. 1.
Atom N1 forms an intramolecular hydrogen bond via H1 with atom O122 so forming an R(6) ring, (Bernstein et al., 1995). Atom O142 acts as a hydrogen bond acceptor from donor atoms C3, via H3B, and C32, via H32, thus forming an R21(5) ring which links screw-related molecules into chains running parallel to (101). These chains are linked to form sheets running parallel to the b axis by the C—H···π contact in which C3 acts as a donor atom via H3B to the phenyl ring containing C31, Fig.2.
There is a short intermolecular nitro to nitro group contact between O122···N12(-x + 1.5, y + 1/2, -z + 1/2) of 2.76 Å.
The relevant bonds and angles compare well with those in 2,4-dinitrophenylhydrazine: Wardell et al. 2006.
