In the title compound, C12H10Br2O3, the dihedral angle between the furan-5(2H)-one ring and the benzene ring is 1.2 (3)°. Two intramolecular C—H⋯O interactions occur in the molecule, both of which generate S(6) rings. The bromoethyl fragment is disordered over two sets of sites in a 0.773 (8):0.227 (8) ratio. In the crystal, inversion dimers linked by pairs of C—H⋯π interactions occur.

3-(4-Bromophenyl)-4-hydroxyfuran-5(2H)-one (0.77 g, 3 mmol) was added to a solution of 1,2-dibromoethane (2.8 g, 15 mmol) and triethylamine (0.7 g, 7 mmol) in dry acetone. The stirring was maintained at reflux temperature for 5 h. After the solvent was removed, the residue was partitioned between EtOAc and water. The organic layer was then dryed over MgSO4 and concentrated under reduced pressure. Flash
(EtOAc/petroleum ether, 1/1, v/v) gave a fraction, which was partially evaporated to give the colorless blocks of (I).All H atoms were placed in geometrically idealized positions and constrained to ride on their parent atoms with C—H = 0.93 and 0.96 Å for the aromatic and CH2 type H atoms, respectively. Uiso = 1.2Ueq(parent atoms) were assigned for all H atoms.
Many compounds with γ-butyrolactone-core (furanone) show diverse biological activities such as antitumor and anti-inflammatory activity (Bailly et al., 2008; Weber et al., 2005). Recently, we focused our efforts to synthesize with γ-butyrolactone-core for antibacterial activity screening. Herein, we report the of the title compound (I).
Bond distance C7—C10 (1.334 (10) Å) is followed in the range of a typical double bond (1.32–1.38 Å), and the title compound was therefore identified as a furan-5(2H)-one not a furan-2(3H)-one. C10—O3 (1.348 (8) Å) bond has shorter bond distance than the standard C—O single bond (1.41–1.44 Å), but longer than C—O double bond (1.19–1.23 Å). This clearly indicated that an sp3 orbital of O3 is conjugated with the π of C7—C10 double bond, which was supported by the small torsion angle (0.4 (12) °) of C1—C7—C10—O3. The stereochemistry of the double bond in lactone ring was assigned as (E)-configuration based on X-ray crystallography of the title compound (Fig. 1). The butyrolactone moiety makes a dihedral angle of 1.2 (3) ° with the 4-fluorophenyl group. The side chain bromoethyl group is disorder (Fig. 1). C—H···Π contacts link molecules into dimers (Fig. 2), and the result dimers are packed by van der waals.

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. |

Many compounds with γ-butyrolactone-core (furanone) show diverse biological activities such as antitumor and anti-inflammatory activity (Bailly et al., 2008; Weber et al., 2005). Recently, we focused our efforts to synthesize enamines with γ-butyrolactone-core for antibacterial activity screening. Herein, we report the crystal structure of the title compound (I).
Bond distance C7—C10 (1.334 (10) Å) is followed in the range of a typical double bond (1.32–1.38 Å), and the title compound was therefore identified as a furan-5(2H)-one not a furan-2(3H)-one. C10—O3 (1.348 (8) Å) bond has shorter bond distance than the standard C—O single bond (1.41–1.44 Å), but longer than C—O double bond (1.19–1.23 Å). This clearly indicated that an sp3 orbital of O3 is conjugated with the π molecular orbital of C7—C10 double bond, which was supported by the small torsion angle (0.4 (12) °) of C1—C7—C10—O3. The stereochemistry of the double bond in lactone ring was assigned as (E)-configuration based on X-ray crystallography of the title compound (Fig. 1). The butyrolactone moiety makes a dihedral angle of 1.2 (3) ° with the 4-fluorophenyl group. The side chain bromoethyl group is disorder (Fig. 1). C—H···Π contacts link molecules into dimers (Fig. 2), and the result dimers are packed by van der waals.
