In the title heteroaryl chalcone derivative, C16H16O5, the dihedral angle between the furan and benzene rings is 14.45 (6)°. The three methoxy groups are almost coplanar with their attached benzene ring [C—C—O—C torsion angles = 2.07 (17), −5.04 (17) and 2.85 (16)°]. An intramolecular C—H⋯O hydrogen bond occurs. In the crystal, adjacent molecules are linked into X-shaped chains along the c axis by weak C—H⋯O(enone) interactions. These chains are stacked along the b axis. C⋯O [3.3308 (13)–3.4123 (14) Å] short contacts are also observed.

The title compound was prepared by the condensation of the solution of 2-furyl methylketone (2 mmol, 0.22 g) in ethanol (15 ml) and 2,4,6-trimethoxybenzaldehyde (2 mmol, 0.40 g) in ethanol (15 ml) in the presence of 20% NaOH (aq) 5 ml at 278 K for 5 hr. The resulting solid which was obtained was further collected by filtration, washed with distilled water and dried in air. Colorless blocks of (I) were recrystalized from acetone/ethanol (1:1 v/v) by the slow evaporation of the solvent at room temperature after several days, Mp. 390–391 K.
All H atoms were located in difference maps and refined isotropically. The highest residual electron density peak is located at 0.63 Å from C10 and the deepest hole is located at 1.12 Å from C2.

Experimental. The crystal was placed in the cold stream of an Oxford Cryosystems Cobra open-flow nitrogen cryostat (Cosier & Glazer, 1986) operating at 120.0 (1) K. |
Geometry. All esds (except the esd in the dihedral angle between two l.s. planes) are estimated using the full covariance matrix. The cell esds are taken into account individually in the estimation of esds in distances, angles and torsion angles; correlations between esds in cell parameters are only used when they are defined by crystal symmetry. An approximate (isotropic) treatment of cell esds is used for estimating esds 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 > 2sigma(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. |

Chalcone and heteroaryl chalcones are very interesting due to their variety of applications with biological activities. Many of them possess analgesic, anti-inflammatory and antibacterial properties (Go et al., 2005; Ni et al., 2004; Nowakowska, 2007) as well as HIV-1 protease inhibitory (Tewtrakul et al., 2003) and tyrosinase inhibitory (Ng et al., 2009) activities. Moreover synthetic chalcones and heteroaryl chalcones have also been found to exhibit non-linear optical (Patil & Dharmaprakash, 2008), fluorescent (Jung et al., 2008) and laser properties (Gaber et al., 2008) . In continuing our on-going research on antibacterial activities and fluorescence properties of chalcones and heteroaryl chalcone derivatives, the title heteroaryl chalcone was synthesized in order to study its antibacterial and fluorescence properties. However our results show that (I) do not possess fluorescence property. In addition our biological testing found that (I) was inactive against the tested bacteria strains which are Bacillus subtilis, Enterococcus faecalis, Staphylococcus aureus, Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus aureus, Vancomycin-Resistant Enterococcus faecalis, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Salmonella typhi and Shigella sonnei. Herein we report the crystal structure of (I).
The molecule of the title heteroaryl chalcone (Fig. 1) exists in an E configuration with respect to the C6═C7 double bond [1.3512 (16) Å] with the C5–C6–C7–C8 torsion angle being -176.44 (12)°. The whole molecule is slightly twisted with the dihedral angle between the furan and benzene rings being 14.45 (6)°. Atoms of the propenone unit (C5, C6, C7 and O1) lie on the same plane [r.m.s. 0.0179 (1)]. This plane makes dihedral angles of 11.38 (8) and 9.12 (8)° with furan and phenyl rings, respectively. All the three substituted methoxy groups of 2,4,6-trimethoxyphenyl unit are almost co-planar with the phenyl ring as indicated by torsion angles C14–O3–C9–C10 = 2.07 (17)°, C15–O4–C11–C12 = -5.04 (17)° and C16–O5–C13–C12 = 2.85 (16)°. In the structure, a weak intramolecular C6—H6···O5 interaction generates an S(6) ring motif (Bernstein et al., 1995) (Table 1). The bond lengths have normal values (Allen et al., 1987) and bond lengths and angles are comparable with its related structures (Chantrapromma et al., 2009; Suwunwong et al., 2009).
In the crystal packing, all the three methoxy groups involve in weak intermolecular C—H···O interactions (Table 1). The adjacent molecules are linked into X-shape chains along the c axis through the enone unit by weak C—H···O interactions (Fig. 2, Table 1). The adjacent chains are arranged into face-to-face manner (Fig. 3) and stacked along the b axis (Fig. 3). The crystal is further stabilized by C···O[3.3308 (13)-3.4123 (14) Å] short contacts.
