Supporting information
2-(4-methylcyclohexylidene)malononitrile (0.16 g, 1 mmol), (E)-4-phenylbut-3-en-2-one (0.175 g, 1.2 mmol), 9S-amino-9-deoxyepiquinine (0.065 g, 0.2 mmol), 2,2,2-trifluoroacetic acid (0.029 g, 0.4 mmol) and N-ethyl-N-isopropylpropan-2-amine (0.023 g, 0.15 mmol) were stirred in THF (3 ml) at 298 K for 110 h. Then the reaction was quenched by adding 1 mol/L HCl (5 ml). The mixture was extracted with ethyl acetate (20 ml), dried with anhydrous sodium sulfate. The solvent was removed under reduced pressure and flash chromatography on silica gel gave the pure compound as a white solid. Colorless single crystals of (I) suitable for X-ray analysis were obtained by slow evaporation the mixture solvents of ethyl acetate and petroleum ether.
The carbon-bound hydrogen atoms were placed in calculated positions, with C—H = 0.95–1.00 Å, and refined using a riding model, with Uiso(H) =1.5Ueq(C) for methyl H atom and 1.2Ueq(C) for the others. In the absence of significant anomalous scattering effects, Friedel pairs were averaged.

Special details top 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. |

Malononitrile derivatives are useful intermediates in organic synthesis (Michail et al. 2008; Zhang et al. 2008; Zhou et al. 2007). Their potential applications are used for the preparation of heterocyclic ring compounds (Magdi et al. 2003). As a part of our interest in the synthsis of some complex ring systems, we investigated the title compound, (I), which is a potential precursor in the preparation of multifunctional tricyclic compound. We report herein the crystal structure of the title compound.
The molecular structure of (I) is shown in Fig. 1. Bond lengths and angles in (I) are normal. Two six membered rings (cyclohexanone and cyclohexane) adopt an chair conformation. The crystal packing is stabilized by C—H···N and C—H···0 hydrogen bonding (Table 1).
