(Received 20 February 2011; accepted 23 February 2011; online 2 March 2011)

In the title compound, C15H11ClO2, the dihedral angle between the mean planes of the chloro­benzene and hy­droxy­benzene rings is 6.5 (6)°. The mean plane of the prop-2-en-1-one group makes an angle of 18.0 (1)° with the hy­droxy­phenyl ring and 11.5 (1)° with the chloro­phenyl ring. The crystal packing is stabilized by inter­molecular O—H⋯O hydrogen bonds, weak C—H⋯O, C—H⋯π and ππ stacking inter­actions [centroid–centroid distances = 3.7771 (7) and 3.6917 (7) Å].

Chalcones, or 1,3-diaryl-2-propen-1-ones, belong to the flavonoid family. Chemically they consist of open-chain flavonoids in which the two aromatic rings are joined by a three-carbon α,β-unsaturated carbonyl system. The radical quenching properties of the phenolic groups present in many chalcones have raised interest in using the compounds or chalcone rich plant extracts as drugs or food preservatives. Chalcones have been reported to possess many useful properties, including anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial, antifungal, antioxidant, cytotoxic, antitumor and anticancer activities (Nowakowska, 2007). Certain chalcone derivatives are reported to inhibit the polymerization of tubulin to form microtubules and are therefore antimitotic agents which can be used as antigout agents. The chalcone derivatives are also reported to inhibit the destruction of the myelin sheath in the central nervous system of multiple sclerosis patients and are thus useful in controlling the progressive nature of the disease (Edwards et al., 1989).

In a continuation of our studies on the crystal structures of chalcones (Jasinski et al., 2010, 2011a, 2011b), we report here the synthesis and crystal structure of the title compound, C15H11ClO2, (I), Fig. 2. The dihedral angle between the mean planes of the chlorobenzene and hydroxybenzene rings is 6.5 (6)°. The mean plane of the prop-2-en-1-one group, the active site in this molecule, makes angles of 18.0 (1)° with the hydroxy benzene and 11.5 (1)° with the chlorobenzene rings, respectively. Bond lengths are normal (Allen et al., 1987) and correspond to those observed in related compounds (Butcher et al., 2007a, 2007b; Narayana et al., 2007; Sarojini et al., 2007a, 2007b). Crystal packing is stabilized by O—H···O hydrogen bonds, weak C—H···O, C—H···Cg π—ring (Table 1) and ππ intermolecular stacking interactions (Table 2 & Fig. 3).

Experimental top

4-Hydroxyacetophenone (1.36 g, 0.01 mol) was mixed with 4-chlorobenzaldeyde (1.40 g, 0.01 mol) and dissolved in ethanol (20 ml) (Fig. 1). To this solution 4 ml of KOH (50%) (10 mL) was added at 0°C. The reaction mixture was stirred for 4 h and poured on to crushed ice. The pH of this mixture was adjusted to 3–4 with 2 M HCl aqueous solution. The resulting crude yellow solid was filtered, washed successively with dilute HCl solution and distilled water and finally recrystallized from ethanol (95%) to give the pure chalcone. Crystals suitable for x-ray diffraction studies were grown by the slow evaporation of the solution of the compound in acetone. M.P:419 K. Composition: Found (Calculated) for C15H11ClO2, C: 69.53 (69.64); H: 4.26 (4.29).

Refinement top

The hydroxyl hydrogem (H1O) was located by a Fourier map, fixed at 0.84 Å and refined using the riding model. All of the remaining H atoms were placed in their calculated positions and then refined using the riding model with Atom—H lengths of 0.95Å (CH). Isotropic displacement parameters for these atoms were set to 1.18–1.21 (CH) or 1.18 (OH) times Ueq of the parent atom.

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.
