The title compound, (I) was prepared by the literature method (Mantri, et al., 2008). Malononitrile (20 mmol) was dissolved in EtOH (40 ml), added benzalaldehyde (20 mmol) followed by 2 drops of piperidine, the reaction mixture was refluxed for 1 h. The precipitate formed upon cooling the reaction mixture to room temperature. The crude product was filtered, and it was pure enough to carry out the further reactions. To a solution of previously synthesized benzylidene malononitrile (3 mmol, 1 equiv) in toluene was added 1-(naphthalen-1-yl)ethanone (3 mmol, 1 equiv) and ammonium acetate (4.5 mmol, 1.5 equiv). The mixture was heated in a microwave at 120° for 1 h. The reaction mixture was purified by
using dichloromethane-methanol solvent system. Crystals suitable for X-ray analysis were obtained by dissolving (I) (0.5 g) in methanol (20 ml) and evaporating the solvent slowly at room temperature for about 7 d.All H atoms were positioned geometrically and constrained to ride on their parent atoms, with C—H = 0.93 Å for aromatic H and 0.86 Å for N—H, respectively. The Uiso(H) = xUeq(C), where x = 1.2 for aromatic H, and x = 1.5 for other H.

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. |

The title compound, (I), contains an amino group, which can react with different groups to prepare various function organic compounds. It is a kind of aromatic organic intermediate which can be used for many fields such as medicine. (Mantri, et al., 2008). Herein we report its crystal structure. The molecular structure of (I) is shown in Fig. 1, and the selected geometric parameters are given in Table 1. The bond lengths and angles are within normal ranges. The torsion angle between the naphthyl (C12—C21) and phenyl planes (C1 to C6) is 67.40 (2)° and 59.80 (3)°, respectively. In the crystal of the title compound, (I) was connected together via N—H···N intermolecular hydrogen bonds to form a three dimensional network, which seems to be very effective in the stabilization of the crystal structure.
