To a solution of 2–pyridyl magnesium bromide in dry THF at 273° under nitrogen atomsphere, solution of phenanthren-9,10-dione in dry THF was added dropwise. After the addition, the mixture was stirred at room temp under nitrogen atmosphere for 3 h. After the completion of reaction as evidenced by TLC, the reaction was quenched with
of ammonium chloride and the mixture was extracted into diethyl ether. The organic layer was concentrated at reduced pressure. The residue was purified by coloumn chromotography (hexane-ethyl acetate, 9:1 v/v) to afford the title compound as a pale yellow solid (yield 75%, m.p. 418° K). Single crystals suitable for X–ray diffraction was recrystallized from mixture of dichlromehane-hexane (8: 2 v/v) as solvent.All H atoms were positioned geometrically, with C—H = 0.93–0.98 Å and constrained to ride on their parent atoms, with Uiso(H) = xUeq(C, N), where x = 1.5 for methyl H and x = 1.2 for all H atoms.
Heterocyclic compounds containing the pyridine ring are reported to possess a diverse range of biological activities such as antimicrobial, antitumor and anti–inflammatory (Amr & Abdulla, 2006; Borgna et al., 1993; Goda et al., 2004; Kamal et al., 2007) properties. Pyridyl functionalized 1,2,3–triazoles have begun attracting significant attention in a range of areas including anion recognition (Li & Flood, 2008), stimuli responsive foldamers (Meudtner & Hecht, 2008), drug discovery (Krivopalov & Shkurko, 2005) and coordination chemistry (Richardson et al., 2008; Schweinfurth et al., 2008). Against this background the structure of the title compound was determined by X–ray diffraction. Here we report the
of the title compound (Fig. 1).The phenanthrene plane is essentially planar, with a mean deviation of 0.011 (2) |%A from the least-squares plane defined by the fourteen constituent atoms. The dihedral angle formed by the phenanthrene plane and the pyridyl ring is 87.04 (6)°. The crystal packing (Fig. 2) is stabilized by a weak intermolecular C—H···O hydrogen bond between the pyidyl H atom and the oxygen of the hydroxyl group, with a C3—H3···O2i (Table 1). The crystal packing (Fig. 2) is further stabilized by two intermolecular C—H···π interactions; the first one between the benzene H atom of the phenanthrene unit and the pyridyl ring, with a C10—H10···Cg1, the second one between the benzene H atom of the phenanthrene unit and the central benzene ring of a neighbouring molecule, with a C15—H15···Cg2 (Table 1; Cg1 and Cg2 are the centroids of the N1/C1—C5 pyridyl ring and the C6/C7/C12/C13/C18/C19 benzene ring, respectively).

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. |

Heterocyclic compounds containing the pyridine ring are reported to possess a diverse range of biological activities such as antimicrobial, antitumor and anti–inflammatory (Amr & Abdulla, 2006; Borgna et al., 1993; Goda et al., 2004; Kamal et al., 2007) properties. Pyridyl functionalized 1,2,3–triazoles have begun attracting significant attention in a range of areas including anion recognition (Li & Flood, 2008), stimuli responsive foldamers (Meudtner & Hecht, 2008), drug discovery (Krivopalov & Shkurko, 2005) and coordination chemistry (Richardson et al., 2008; Schweinfurth et al., 2008). Against this background the structure of the title compound was determined by X–ray diffraction. Here we report the crystal structure of the title compound (Fig. 1).
The phenanthrene plane is essentially planar, with a mean deviation of 0.011 (2) |%A from the least-squares plane defined by the fourteen constituent atoms. The dihedral angle formed by the phenanthrene plane and the pyridyl ring is 87.04 (6)°. The crystal packing (Fig. 2) is stabilized by a weak intermolecular C—H···O hydrogen bond between the pyidyl H atom and the oxygen of the hydroxyl group, with a C3—H3···O2i (Table 1). The crystal packing (Fig. 2) is further stabilized by two intermolecular C—H···π interactions; the first one between the benzene H atom of the phenanthrene unit and the pyridyl ring, with a C10—H10···Cg1, the second one between the benzene H atom of the phenanthrene unit and the central benzene ring of a neighbouring molecule, with a C15—H15···Cg2 (Table 1; Cg1 and Cg2 are the centroids of the N1/C1—C5 pyridyl ring and the C6/C7/C12/C13/C18/C19 benzene ring, respectively).
