The title compound, C21H17N3O2, crystallizes with two molecules in the The carbazole groups show relatively small deviations from planarity [maximum displacements from the mean carbazole plane are 0.077 (7) and 0.101 (7) Å]. The dihedral angles between the 3-nitrobenzylideneamine and carbazole groups are 37.9 (1) and 37.0 (1)° in the two molecules.

Herein, we report a simple and effective method of high-yield synthesis of the title compound. A mixture of m-nitrobenzaldehyde (0.154 g, 0.001 mol), 3-amino-9-ethylcarbazole (0.210 g, 0.001 mol) and sodium bicarbonate (0.080 g, 0.001 mol) was ground and kept at room temperature for 2 h. The reaction was monitored by TLC. Then the solid was quenched with crushed ice under stirring and acidified with dilute hydrochloric acid till the solution became acidic (litmus color change from blue to red). The product was extracted with ethylacetate and dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate. Upon removal of the solvent, a yellow crude product was obtained. It was purified by
over silica gel using petroleum ether: ethylacetate (95:5, v/v) mixture as to afford the title compound (yield: 0.274 g, 80%); the pale-orange product was recrystallized from ethanol.As there are no significant anomalous scatterers in the molecule, the Friedel pairs were merged. H atoms were positioned geometrically and allowed to ride on their parent atoms, with C—H = 0.93, 0.96 and 0.97 Å for Csp2, methyl and methylene H atoms, respectively. Uiso(H) = xUeq(C), where x = 1.5 for methyl H atoms and 1.2 for other C-bound H atoms.

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 e.s.d.'s 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 > 2σ(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. |

N-Alkylamino carbazoles show significant anti-convulsant and diuretic activity (Shoeb et al., 1973). One of them, rimcazole is a well known anti-pyretic and neuroleptic agent (Ferris et al., 1986). It was found to be a specific competitive antagonist of s-sites in the brain; it reverses psychotic conditions induced in humans by phencyclidine and/or s-opiod antagonists, probably by binding to receptors in the brain.
Archana et al. (2010) have reported a crystal structure of substituted carbazole derivative, in which the carbazole unit is almost planar. The title compound, C21H17N3O2, crystallizes with two molecules (A and B) in the asymmetric unit (Fig. 1). The carbazole groups show relatively small deviations from planarity [maximum displacement of the C9A atom from the mean carbazole plane in molecule A is equal to 0.077 (7) Å, displacement of the C9B atom in B is 0.101 (7) Å]. The dihedral angles between the 3-nitro-benzylideneamine group and the carbazole group are 37.9 (1)° and 37.0 (1)° in A and B respectively.
