The molecule of the title chalcone, C25H20O2, consisting of 2-ethoxyphenyl and anthracene rings bridged by a prop-2-en-1-one unit, is twisted and exists in the Z configuration with respect to the central C=C bond. The dihedral angle between the benzene and anthracene rings is 78.17 (9)°. The propene unit makes dihedral angles of 44.5 (2) and 81.1 (2)° with the benzene and anthracene rings, respectively. The ethoxy substituent is almost coplanar with the attached benzene ring [C—O—C—C torsion angle = 178.57 (19)°]. In the crystal, molecules are linked into chains along the a axis by weak C—H⋯O interactions. The is further stabilized by C—H⋯π interactions.

The title compound was synthesized by the condensation of anthracene-9-carbaldehyde (2 mmol, 0.41 g) with 2-ethoxyacetophenone (2 mmol, 0.33 g) in ethanol (40 ml) in the presence of NaOH(aq) (5 ml, 20%). After stirring for 4 hr at room temperature, a yellow solid appeared and was then collected by filtration, washed with distilled water and dried in air. Yellow plate-shaped single crystals of the title compound suitable for X-ray
were recrystalized from methanol by slow evaporation of the solvent at room temperature after several days, Mp. 419–421 K.All H atoms were positioned geometrically and allowed to ride on their parent atoms, with d(C—H) = 0.93 Å for aromatic and CH, 0.97 Å for CH2 and 0.96 Å for CH3 atoms. The Uiso values were constrained to be 1.5Ueq of the
for methyl H atoms and 1.2Ueq for the remaining H atoms. A rotating group model was used for the methyl groups. The highest residual electron density peak is located at 0.80Å from atom C8 and the deepest hole is located at 0.76 Å from atom C10. A total of 2321 Friedel pairs were merged before final as there is no large for the determination of the absolute configuration.Data collection: APEX2 (Bruker, 2005); cell

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 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. |

Chalcones are an interesting class of compounds which have been reported to posses various useful properties. They have been studied for non-linear optical (Patil & Dharmaprakash, 2008), biological activities including anti-inflammatory, antileishmanial, antimicrobial, antioxidant (Nowakowska, 2007; Oliveira et al., 2007; Saydam et al., 2003) and HIV-1 protease inhibitory (Tewtrakul et al., 2003) as well as fluorescence properties (Kobkeatthawin et al., 2010; Svetlichny et al., 2007). We have previously reported the crystal structures of several chalcone derivatives containing the anthracene moiety which show interesting fluorescence properties (Suwunwong et al., 2009; Chantrapromma et al., 2009, 2010). Due to its various interesting properties the title chalcone derivative (I) was synthesized in order to study its NLO and fluorescence properties. The title compound crystallizes in the orthorhombic noncentrosymmetric space group P212121 and therefore it should exhibit second-order non-linear optic properties. In addition our experiment shows that (I) has fluorescence property. Herein the crystal structure of (I) is reported.
The molecule of (I) (Fig. 1) exists in an Z configuration respected to the C8═C9 double bond [1.331 (3)°] and the C7–C8–C9–C10 torsion angle is 4.2 (3)°. The anthracene unit is essentially planar with the maximum deviation of -0.049 (2) Å for atom C10 [r.m.s. 0.0125 (2) Å]. The total molecule is twisted with the dihedral angle between benzene and anthracene rings of 78.17 (9)°. The mean plane through the propene unit (C7–C9) makes dihedral angles of 44.5 (2) and 81.1 (2)° with the benzene and anthracene rings, respectively. Atom O1 of the pro-2-en-1-one moiety is deviated from the propene plane as indicated by the torsion angle O1–C7–C8–C9 = 19.0 (3)°. The ethoxy substituent is coplanar with the attached benzene ring with the torsion angle C1–O2–C24–C25 = 178.57 (19)°. The bond distances are of normal values (Allen et al., 1987) and are comparable with those found in related structures (Chantrapromma et al., 2009; 2010; Suwunwong et al., 2009).
In the crystal packing, the molecules are linked into chains along the a axis through the prop-2-en-1-one unit by weak C—H···O interactions (Fig. 2). The crystal structure is further stabilized by C—H···π interactions (Table 1); Cg1 and Cg2 are the centroids of the C1–C6 and C10–C11/C16–C18/C23 rings, respectively.
