In the title compound, C18H15ClO3, the dihydroindenone group makes a dihedral angle of 8.56 (6)° with the bezene ring. In the crystal, the molecules are interconnected into a three-dimensional network via intermolecular C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds. Weak C—H⋯π and π⋯π [centroid–centroid distances 3.6598 (9)–3.6913 (9) Å] interactions are also observed.

A mixture of 5,6-dimethoxy-2,3-dihydro-1H-indene-1-one (0.001 mmol) and 3-chlorobenzaldehyde (0.001 mmol) were dissolved in methanol (10 ml) and 30% sodium hydroxide solution (5 ml) was added and the mixture stirred for 5 h. After the completion of the reaction as evident from TLC, the mixture was poured into crushed ice then neutralized with concentrated HCl. The precipitated solid was filtered, washed with water and recrystallized from ethanol to reveal the title compound as light yellow crystals.
All hydrogen atoms were located from difference Fourier map and refined freely. A total of 1966 Friedel pairs were use to determine the absolute structure.
α,β-unsaturated are useful key intermediates (Marzinzik & Felder, 1998, Srikanth & Castle, 2005) bearing the well known chalcone pharmacophore. can be isolated from several plants and are precursors of flavones and anthocyan compounds. Some of them also exhibit antioxidant and anticancer properties. In fact, the pharmacological properties of are due to the presence of both α,β-unsaturation (Furusawa et al., 2005) and an aromatic ring. Many antitumor drugs have been developed for prostate cancer patients, but their intolerable systemic toxicity often limits their clinical use. Chemoprevention is one of the most promising approaches in prostate cancer research, in which natural or synthetic agents are used to prevent this malignant disease (Heidenreich et al., 2008, Syed et al., 2008).
The molecular structure of the title compound is essentially planar (Fig. 1). The torsion angles of the two methoxy groups are [C18–O3–C13–C14] 4.38 (18) and [C17–O2–C12–C11] -2.01 (17)°. The maximum deviation of the dihydroindenone group is 0.024 (1) Å and it makes dihedral angle of 8.56 (6)° with the benzene ring [C1–C6]. The geometric parameters are comparable to those observed in closely related structures (Ali et al., 2010a,b).
In the π and π···π interactions are also observed [Cg1···Cg2v of 3.6913 (9) Å and Cg2···Cg3vi of 3.6598 (9) Å; (v) x, y, 1 + z; (vi) x, y, -1 + z. Cg1, Cg2 and Cg3 are centroids of C8–C10/C15–C16, C1–C6 and C10–C15 rings, respectively].
the molecules are linked together into a three dimensional network by the intermolecular C7—H7···O1, C11—H11···O1 and C18—H18C···O3 hydrogen bonds (Fig. 2, Table 1).

Experimental. The crystal was placed in the cold stream of an Oxford Cryosystems Cobra open-flow nitrogen cryostat (Cosier & Glazer, 1986) operating at 100.0 (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. |

α,β-unsaturated ketones are useful key intermediates (Marzinzik & Felder, 1998, Srikanth & Castle, 2005) bearing the well known chalcone pharmacophore. Chalcones can be isolated from several plants and are precursors of flavones and anthocyan compounds. Some of them also exhibit antioxidant and anticancer properties. In fact, the pharmacological properties of chalcones are due to the presence of both α,β-unsaturation (Furusawa et al., 2005) and an aromatic ring. Many antitumor drugs have been developed for prostate cancer patients, but their intolerable systemic toxicity often limits their clinical use. Chemoprevention is one of the most promising approaches in prostate cancer research, in which natural or synthetic agents are used to prevent this malignant disease (Heidenreich et al., 2008, Syed et al., 2008).
The molecular structure of the title compound is essentially planar (Fig. 1). The torsion angles of the two methoxy groups are [C18–O3–C13–C14] 4.38 (18) and [C17–O2–C12–C11] -2.01 (17)°. The maximum deviation of the dihydroindenone group is 0.024 (1) Å and it makes dihedral angle of 8.56 (6)° with the benzene ring [C1–C6]. The geometric parameters are comparable to those observed in closely related structures (Ali et al., 2010a,b).
In the crystal structure, the molecules are linked together into a three dimensional network by the intermolecular C7—H7···O1, C11—H11···O1 and C18—H18C···O3 hydrogen bonds (Fig. 2, Table 1). Weak C—H···π and π···π interactions are also observed [Cg1···Cg2v of 3.6913 (9) Å and Cg2···Cg3vi of 3.6598 (9) Å; (v) x, y, 1 + z; (vi) x, y, -1 + z. Cg1, Cg2 and Cg3 are centroids of C8–C10/C15–C16, C1–C6 and C10–C15 rings, respectively].
