The title compound, C13H14N2O2, is a natural product isolated from Cicer arietinum L. (chickpea). The benzene ring and pyrrole rings display planar conformations and the piperidine ring has a half-chair conformation. Inter­molecular C—H⋯π inter­actions between a methyl H atom and the pyrrole ring of an adjacent mol­ecule are present in the crystal structure.

Comment top

The title compound is isolated from Cicer arietinum L. (Chickpea), It is a precursor of mutagenic N-nitroso compounds, which show direct-acting mutagenicity on Salmonlla typhimurium TA 100 (Adachi et al., 1991) and may cause eosinophilia-myalgia syndrome (EMS) associated with ingestion of L-tryptophan (Ogawa, 1993).

The benzene ring and pyrrole ring display a planar conformation, and the piperidine ring has a half chair conformation. The molecular packing is stabilized by an intermolecular C–H···π interactions between methyl H atom of piperidine ring pyrrole ring of an adjacent molecule, with a C10–H10···Cg1 separation of 2.69 Å (Table 1, Cg1 is the centroid of C1—C6—C7—C11—N1 pyrrole ring).

Experimental top

6 kg of the dried chickpea seeds were crushed and refluxed with 70% ethanol. After condensation in a rotary evaporator, 0.6 L of a syrupy residue was obtained. The residue was suspended in water and extracted by successive partitioning with petroleum ether, EtOAc, and n-butanol saturated with H2O, respectively. The n-butanol portion (60 g) was fractionated over silica gel column eluted with a continuous gradient of CHCl3/MeOH/H2O (15:1:0–6:4:0.8) mixtures of increasing polarity. Fraction eluted with CHCl3/MeOH/H2O (7:3:0.5) was combined and afforded crude title compound (1.13 g). Suitable crystal for determining the X-ray stucture was obtained with a further purification by re-crystallization in MeOH/H2O (1:1). [α] D= 86° (MeOH, 1/4).

Refinement top

All H atoms were positioned geometrically and treated as riding with aromatic C—H = 0.93 Å, methine C—H = 0.98 Å, methylene C—H = 0.97Å & methyl C—H = 0.96 Å. The H atom isotropic displacement parameters were fixed; Uiso(aromatic H, methine H) = 1.2 times Ueq of the parent atom; Uiso(methylene H, methyl H) = 1.5 times Ueq of the parent atom. Friedel pairs were merged.

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.
