In the title compound, C11H11NO3, the conformation of the N—H bond is anti to the C=O bond in the amide segment, while it is syn to the ortho-methyl group in the phenyl ring. In the maleamic acid unit, the amide C=O bond is anti to the adjacent C—H bond, while the carboxyl C=O bond is syn to the adjacent C—H bond. The C=O and O—H bonds of the acid group are in the relatively rare anti position to each other. This is an obvious consequence of the intramolecular O—H⋯O hydrogen bond donated to the amide carbonyl group. The ortho-substituted phenyl ring makes a dihedral angle of 12.7 (1)° with the mean plane of the maleamic acid unit. In the intermolecular N—H⋯O hydrogen bonds link the molecules into zigzag chains parallel to [001]. These chains are further linked into sheet by weak π–π interactions [centroid–centroid distance = 3.425 (2) Å].

The solution of maleic anhydride (0.025 mol) in toluene (25 ml) was treated dropwise with the solution of 2-methylaniline (0.025 mol) also in toluene (20 ml) with constant stirring. The resulting mixture was stirred for about 30 min and set aside for an additional 30 min at room temperature for the completion of reaction. The mixture was then treated with dilute hydrochloric acid to remove the unreacted 2-methylaniline. The resultant solid N-(2-methylphenyl)maleamic acid was filtered under suction and washed thoroughly with water to remove the unreacted maleic anhydride and maleic acid. It was recrystallized to constant melting point from ethanol. The purity of the compound was checked by elemental analysis and characterized by its infrared spectra. The single crystals used in X-ray diffraction studies were grown in an ethanol solution by slow evaporation at room temperature.
All H atoms attached to C atoms, N atom and O atom were fixed geometrically and treated as riding with C—H = 0.96 Å (methyl) or 0.93 Å (aromatic), N—H = 0.86 Å and O—H= 0.92Å with Uiso(H) = 1.2Ueq(Caromatic, N) or Uiso(H) = 1.5Ueq(Cmethyl, O).

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 amide moiety is an important constituent of many biologically significant compounds. As a part of studying the effect of ring and side chain substitutions on the crystal structures of this class of compounds (Gowda et al., 2009a,b,c; Prasad et al., 2002), the crystal structure of N-(2-methylphenyl)-maleamic acid (I) has been determined (Fig. 1). The conformations of the N—H and the C=O bonds in the amide segment are anti to each other. But the conformation of the N—H bond is syn to the ortho-methyl group in the phenyl ring. In the maleamic acid moiety, the amide C=O bond is anti to the adjacent C—H bond, while the carboxyl C=O bond is syn to the adjacent C—H bond. The observed rare anti conformation of the C=O and O—H bonds of the acid group is similar to that obsrved in N-(2,6-dimethylphenyl)-maleamic acid (Gowda et al., 2009a), N-(3,4-dimethylphenyl)-maleamic acid (Gowda et al., 2009b) and N-(2,4,6-trimethylphenyl)- maleamic acid (Gowda et al., 2009c).
The ortho-substituted phenyl ring makes a dihedral angle of 12.7 (1)° with the mean plane of the maleamic acid moiety (atoms C1, C2, C3, C4, N1, O1, O2 and O3). The orientation of the central amide group –NHOC– with respect to the phenyl ring is partially affected by the intramolecular hydrogen bond C10—H10···O1(amide) and is given by the torsion angle C10—C5—N1—C1 = -17.3 (2)°. Short intramolecular hydrogen bond O—H···O (Table 1) is important characteristic of the maleamic acid moiety. The C2–C3 bond length of 1.330 (2)Å clearly indicates the double bond character. In the crystal structure, the intermolecular N–H···O hydrogen bonds, having the amide N1 atom as donor and carbonyl O3 atom of the carboxyl group as acceptor, link the molecules into zigzag chains running along the [0 0 1] direction. Due to weak π-π interaction between the phenyl and maleamic acid moieties the chains are assembled to form sheets parallel to the bc-plane. One mode of the chain coupling is shown in Fig. 2 as a short contact between the phenyl ring centroid Cg and the C4 atom of the carboxylic group at (-x,-y + 1,-z + 1).
The various modes of interlinking carboxylic acids by hydrogen bonds is described elsewhere (Leiserowitz, 1976). The packing of molecules involving dimeric hydrogen bonded association of each carboxyl group with a centrosymmetrically related neighbor has also been observed (Jagannathan et al., 1994).
