In the title compound, C20H17N3O3, the dihedral angles between the central pyridine ring and the two terminal rings are 15.07 (3) and 43.24 (3)°. The dihedral angle between the two terminal rings is 37.49 (4)° In the crystal, intermolecular amine N—H⋯Nnitrile hydrogen-bonding interactions form inversion dimers, which are linked into chains through amine N—H⋯Omethoxy hydrogen bonds.

To a refluxing solution of acetophenone (2 mmol) in ethanol (10 ml), malononitrile (2 mmol), 4-hydroxy-3,5-dimethoxybenzaldehyde (syringaldehyde) (2 mmol) and ammonium acetate (2 mmol) were added, and the resulting solution was refluxed for 6 h. The solvent was distilled off under reduced pressure and the resulting residue was purified by
using silica gel (100–200 mesh). Single crystals were obtained by slow evaporation using a petroleum ether/ethyl acetate (1: 3) solvent system.The H atoms were fixed geometrically and allowed to ride on the attached non-H atoms, with O—H = 0.82 Å, N—H = 0.86 Å and C—H = 0.93–0.96 Å, and with Uiso(H)= 1.5 Ueq(C) for methyl H atoms and 1.2 Ueq(C) for all other atoms.
Nicotine derivatives have a wide range of biological applications. Niacin is a vitamin that contains nicotinamide, deficiency of which makes the body lose copper, thereby giving rise to the pellagra disease (Hökelek & Necefouglu, 1999). The nicotinic acid derivative N,N-diethylnicotinamide, which is commonly known as DENA, has a respiratory stimulating property (Hökelek & Necefouglu, 1996). In addition, it has been demonstrated that molecules containing the cyanopyridine moiety may be able to act as ligands towards transition-metal ions (Alyoubi, 2000), new drugs (Murata et al., 2004; Desai & Shah, 2003) and significant intermediates for the synthesis of important vitamins such as nicotinic acids and nicotinamides. For these reasons, the synthesis of new derived cyanopyridine compounds is strongly desired. Against this background and in order to obtain detailed information on
in the solid state, the X-ray study of the title compound C20H17N3O3 (I) was carried out and the results are presented here.In the molecular structure of (I) (Fig. 1), the pyridine ring is almost planar, with a maximum deviation from the plane of 0.031 (5) Å for C10, and it forms a dihedral angle of 15.07 (3)° with the mean plane through benzene ring and another dihedral angle of 43.24 (3)° with the mean plane through the 4-hydroxy-3,5-dimethoxy-substituted benzene ring. The hydroxy group gives an interaction with a methoxy-O acceptor [2.654 (4) Å]. The dihedral angle between the planes of the pyridine and the second phenyl rings [15.07 (3)°] is slightly larger than that reported for a related structure [9.04 (6)°] (Fun et al., 1996). In (I) the ring conformation is stabilized by the presence of a short intramolecular aromatic ring C1—H···N1pyridine interaction [2.790 (5) Å]. The methoxy substituent groups lie slightly out of plane of the benzene ring [torsion angles C20—O2—C16—C17, -18.0 (5)° and C19—O1—C14—C13, 27.2 (7)°]. The crystal packing of the title compound is stabilized by intermolecular amine N—H···Nnitrile hydrogen-bonding interactions forming centrosymmetric cyclic dimers which are linked through amine N—H···Omethoxy hydrogen bonds into one-dimensional chains which extend along the b cell direction (Fig. 2).

Geometry. Bond distances, angles etc. have been calculated using the rounded fractional coordinates. All su's are estimated from the variances of the (full) variance-covariance matrix. The cell esds are taken into account in the estimation of distances, angles and torsion angles |
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. |

Nicotine derivatives have a wide range of biological applications. Niacin is a vitamin that contains nicotinamide, deficiency of which makes the body lose copper, thereby giving rise to the pellagra disease (Hökelek & Necefouglu, 1999). The nicotinic acid derivative N,N-diethylnicotinamide, which is commonly known as DENA, has a respiratory stimulating property (Hökelek & Necefouglu, 1996). In addition, it has been demonstrated that molecules containing the cyanopyridine moiety may be able to act as ligands towards transition-metal ions (Alyoubi, 2000), new drugs (Murata et al., 2004; Desai & Shah, 2003) and significant intermediates for the synthesis of important vitamins such as nicotinic acids and nicotinamides. For these reasons, the synthesis of new derived cyanopyridine compounds is strongly desired. Against this background and in order to obtain detailed information on molecular conformation in the solid state, the X-ray study of the title compound C20H17N3O3 (I) was carried out and the results are presented here.
In the molecular structure of (I) (Fig. 1), the pyridine ring is almost planar, with a maximum deviation from the plane of 0.031 (5) Å for C10, and it forms a dihedral angle of 15.07 (3)° with the mean plane through benzene ring and another dihedral angle of 43.24 (3)° with the mean plane through the 4-hydroxy-3,5-dimethoxy-substituted benzene ring. The hydroxy group gives an interaction with a methoxy-O acceptor [2.654 (4) Å]. The dihedral angle between the planes of the pyridine and the second phenyl rings [15.07 (3)°] is slightly larger than that reported for a related structure [9.04 (6)°] (Fun et al., 1996). In (I) the ring conformation is stabilized by the presence of a short intramolecular aromatic ring C1—H···N1pyridine interaction [2.790 (5) Å]. The methoxy substituent groups lie slightly out of plane of the benzene ring [torsion angles C20—O2—C16—C17, -18.0 (5)° and C19—O1—C14—C13, 27.2 (7)°]. The crystal packing of the title compound is stabilized by intermolecular amine N—H···Nnitrile hydrogen-bonding interactions forming centrosymmetric cyclic dimers which are linked through amine N—H···Omethoxy hydrogen bonds into one-dimensional chains which extend along the b cell direction (Fig. 2).
