The molecule of the title chalcone derivative, C19H15NO, exists in a trans configuration with respect to the C=C double bond. The molecule is slightly twisted with a dihedral angle of 6.12 (12)° between the benzene ring and the naphthalene ring system. The prop-2-en-1-one bridge is nearly planar, with an r.m.s. deviation of 0.0194 (2), and makes dihedral angles of 8.05 (19) and 11.47 (18)° with the benzene ring and the naphthalene ring system, respectively. In the crystal, molecules are linked by N—H⋯O hydrogen bonds into chains along the b axis. Weak N—H⋯π and C—H⋯π interactions and a short N⋯O contact [2.974 (4) Å] are also observed.

The title compound was synthesized by condensation of 4-aminoacetophenone (0.40 g, 3 mmol) with 2-naphthaldehyde (0.46 g, 3 mmol) in ethanol (25 ml) in the presence of 20% NaOH(aq) (5 ml). After stirring for 6 h at room temperature, the resulting yellow solid was collected by filtration, washed with distilled diethylether, dried and purified by repeated recrysallization from acetone. Yellow plate-shaped single crystals of the title compound suitable for X-ray
were recrystalized from acetone by slow evaporation of the solvent at room temperature after several days. M.p. 416–417 K.Anime H atoms were located in a difference Fourier map and refined isotropically. The remaining H atoms were positioned geometrically and allowed to ride on their parent atoms, with d(C—H) = 0.93 Å and Uiso = 1.2Ueq(C). The highest residual electron density peak is located at 0.73 Å from C11 and the deepest hole is located at 1.23 Å from C5. A total of 1345 Friedel pairs were merged as there is no significant
to determine the absolute cofiguration.Data collection: APEX2 (Bruker, 2009); cell

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. |

Chalcones are the precursors of flavonoids and antiflavonoids which are available in plenty in ferns and higher plants. Their derivatives are known to display a variety of biological properties such as analgesic, anti-inflammatory, antibacterial and antifungal activities (Bandgar & Gawande, 2010; Cheng et al., 2008; Nowakowska et al., 2008), HIV-1 protease inhibitory (Tewtrakul et al., 2003) and tyrosinase inhibitory (Nerya et al., 2004) activities. Moreover, some of them have also been studied for fluorescent property (Gaber et al., 2008) and used for sensor, liquid crystal display and fluorescence probe for sensing of DNA or proteins (Svetlichny et al., 2007; Xu et al., 2005). In addition, some of them exhibit second harmonic generation (SHG), and hence are used in non-linear optical (NLO) applications (Patil et al., 2007). These interesting properties of chalcones have lead us to synthesize the title compound, (I), which contains the amino and fluorophore (naphthalene) groups in order to study its NLO and fluorescent properties. Compound (I) crystallizes in the chiral orthorhombic P212121 space group and should therefore exhibit second-order nonlinear optical properties. (I) also shows fluorescent emission at 440 nm when excited at 380 nm. Our results also showed that (I) was inactive for tyrosinase inhibitory. Herein the crystal structure of (I) is reported.
The molecule of the title chalcone derivative (Fig. 1), C19H15NO, exists in an E configuration with respect to the C8═C9 ethenyl bond [1.330 (4) Å], as indicated by the torsion angle C7–C8–C9–C10 = 179.1 (3)°. The molecule is slightly twisted with the dihedral angle between the benzene and naphthalene rings of 6.12 (12)°. The prop-2-en-1-one unit (C7—C9/O1) is nearly planar [r.m.s. of 0.0194 (2) Å] and the torsion angle O1–C7–C8–C9 is 6.4 (5)°. This middle bridge makes dihedral angles of 8.05 (19) and 11.47 (18) ° with the benzene and naphthalene rings, respectively. The bond distances are of normal values (Allen et al., 1987) and are comparable with those found in related structures (Fun et al., 2008; Horkaew et al., 2010).
In the crystal packing, the molecules are linked by N—H···O hydrogen bonds (Table 1) into chains along the b axis (Fig. 2). N—H···π and C—H···π weak interactions (Table 1) are present in the crystal. In addition, a N···O short contact [2.974 (4) Å; symmetry code 2 - x, 1/2 + y, 3/2 - z] is also observed.
