The title compound {systematic name: [8-(4-aminobenzoyl)-2,7-dimethoxynaphthalen-1-yl](4-aminophenyl)methanone}, C26H22O4N2, possesses crystallographically imposed twofold symmetry, with two C atoms lying on the rotation axis. In the crystal, the molecules interact through intermolecular N—H⋯O hydrogen bonds between the amino and methoxy groups on the naphthalene ring systems and N—H⋯π interactions between the amino groups and the naphthalene rings. Furthermore, weak C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds and π–π stacking interactions between the benzene rings are observed. The centroid–centroid and interplanar distances between the benzene rings of the aroyl group and the naphthalene ring systems of adjacent molecules are 3.6954 (8) and 3.2375 (5) Å, respectively. The dihedral angle between the mean planes of the benzene ring and the naphthalene ring system is 83.59 (5)°. The benzene ring and the carbonyl group in the benzoyl unit are almost coplanar [C—C—C—O torsion angle = 175.91 (10)°].

The title compound was prepared by reduction reaction of 1,8-bis(4-nitrobenzoyl)-2,7-dimethoxynaphthalene (486.4 mg, 1.0 mmol), which was obtained via electrophilic aromatic diaroylation reaction of 2,7-dimethoxynaphthalene with 4-nitrobenzoyl chloride, with stannous chloride dihydrate (2.256 g, 10 mmol) in EtOH (8.0 ml) at 343 K for 2 h. The reaction mixture was worked up by reference to the previously outlined procedure (Bellamy et al., 1984). Isolated yield 96%. Brown single crystals suitable for X-ray diffraction were obtained by recrystallization from methanol.

All the H-atoms could be located in difference Fourier maps. The amine and aromatic hydrogen atoms were freely refined. The hydrogen atom of methyl groups were subsequently refined as riding atoms with C—H = 0.96 Å and with Uiso(H) = 1.2Ueq(C).
In the course of our study on selective electrophilic aromatic aroylation of naphthalene core, peri-aroylnaphthalene compounds have proved to be formed regioselectively by the aid of suitable acidic mediators (Okamoto & Yonezawa, 2009). The aroyl groups at 1,8-positions of the naphthalene rings in these compounds are oriented in opposite direction. The aromatic rings in this molecule are clarified to be assembled with non-coplanar configuration resulting in partial disruption of π-conjugated ring systems. Recently, we reported the X-ray crystal structures of 1,8-diaroylated 2,7-dimethoxynaphthalenes such as 1,8-bis(4-chlorobenzoyl)-2,7-dimethoxynaphthalene (Nakaema et al., 2007), 1,8-dibenzoyl-2,7-dimethoxynaphthalene (Nakaema et al., 2008), bis(4-bromophenyl) (2,7-dimethoxynaphthalene-1,8-diyl)dimethanone (Watanabe et al., 2010a), (2,7-dimethoxynaphthalene-1,8-diyl)bis(4-fluorophenyl)dimethanone (Watanabe et al., 2010b) and 1,8-bis(4-methylbenzoyl)-2,7-dimethoxynaphthalene (Muto et al., in press). As a part of our continuous study on the molecular structures of this kind of homologous molecules, the X-ray of title compound, (I), a peri-aroylnaphthalene bearing amino groups, is discussed in this article.
An ORTEPIII (Burnett & Johnson, 1996) plot of title compound is displayed in Fig. 1. The molecule of (I) lies across a crystallographic 2-fold axis so that the
contains one-half of the molecule. Thus, the two benzoyl groups are situated in anti orientation. The benzoyl groups are twisted away from the naphthalene moiety, and the dihedral angle is 83.59 (5)°. The torsion angle between the carbonyl group and the naphthalene ring is -89.52 (13)° [O2—C7—-C8—-C13], and that between the carbonyl group and the benzene ring is 175.91 (10)° [C5—C4—C7—O2].The molecular packing of (I) is mainly stabilized by intermolecular hydrogen bond and van der Waals interaction (Table 1).The amino groups interact with the methoxy groups [N1—H4···O1i = 2.26 (2) Å; symmetry code: (i)-x + 3/2, -y - 1/2, -z + 2] of the adjacent molecules along the b axis (Fig. 2). Moreover, molecules are linked by N—H···π interactions along the c axis (Fig. 3). Besides, relatively weak C—H···O hydrogen bonding, C14—H14B···O2ii[symmetry code: (ii) -x + 3/2, y - 1/2, -z + 3/2], and a π—π stacking interaction are observed. In the packing, the molecules form the column structure of stacked naphthalene rings by π—π interaction perpendicular to the bc plane with alignment by N—H···π interaction and C—H···O hydrogen bonding along the c axis of the (Fig. 4).

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. |

In the course of our study on selective electrophilic aromatic aroylation of naphthalene core, peri-aroylnaphthalene compounds have proved to be formed regioselectively by the aid of suitable acidic mediators (Okamoto & Yonezawa, 2009). The aroyl groups at 1,8-positions of the naphthalene rings in these compounds are oriented in opposite direction. The aromatic rings in this molecule are clarified to be assembled with non-coplanar configuration resulting in partial disruption of π-conjugated ring systems. Recently, we reported the X-ray crystal structures of 1,8-diaroylated 2,7-dimethoxynaphthalenes such as 1,8-bis(4-chlorobenzoyl)-2,7-dimethoxynaphthalene (Nakaema et al., 2007), 1,8-dibenzoyl-2,7-dimethoxynaphthalene (Nakaema et al., 2008), bis(4-bromophenyl) (2,7-dimethoxynaphthalene-1,8-diyl)dimethanone (Watanabe et al., 2010a), (2,7-dimethoxynaphthalene-1,8-diyl)bis(4-fluorophenyl)dimethanone (Watanabe et al., 2010b) and 1,8-bis(4-methylbenzoyl)-2,7-dimethoxynaphthalene (Muto et al., in press). As a part of our continuous study on the molecular structures of this kind of homologous molecules, the X-ray crystal structure of title compound, (I), a peri-aroylnaphthalene bearing amino groups, is discussed in this article.
An ORTEPIII (Burnett & Johnson, 1996) plot of title compound is displayed in Fig. 1. The molecule of (I) lies across a crystallographic 2-fold axis so that the asymmetric unit contains one-half of the molecule. Thus, the two benzoyl groups are situated in anti orientation. The benzoyl groups are twisted away from the naphthalene moiety, and the dihedral angle is 83.59 (5)°. The torsion angle between the carbonyl group and the naphthalene ring is -89.52 (13)° [O2—C7—-C8—-C13], and that between the carbonyl group and the benzene ring is 175.91 (10)° [C5—C4—C7—O2].
The molecular packing of (I) is mainly stabilized by intermolecular hydrogen bond and van der Waals interaction (Table 1).The amino groups interact with the methoxy groups [N1—H4···O1i = 2.26 (2) Å; symmetry code: (i)-x + 3/2, -y - 1/2, -z + 2] of the adjacent molecules along the b axis (Fig. 2). Moreover, molecules are linked by N—H···π interactions along the c axis (Fig. 3). Besides, relatively weak C—H···O hydrogen bonding, C14—H14B···O2ii[symmetry code: (ii) -x + 3/2, y - 1/2, -z + 3/2], and a π—π stacking interaction are observed. In the packing, the molecules form the column structure of stacked naphthalene rings by π—π interaction perpendicular to the bc plane with alignment by N—H···π interaction and C—H···O hydrogen bonding along the c axis of the unit cell (Fig. 4).
