The title compound, C16H13BN2, is one compound in a series of diazaborinanes featuring substitution at the 1, 2 and 3 positions in the nitrogen–boron heterocycle. The title compound is slightly distorted from planarity, with a dihedral angle of 9.0 (5)° between the mean planes of the naphthalene system and the benzene ring. The m-carbon atom of the benzene ring exhibits the greatest deviation of 0.164 (2) Å from the 19-atom mean plane defined by all non-H atoms. The two N—B—C—C torsion angles are 6.0 (3) and 5.6 (3)°. In the crystal, molecules are linked by π–π interactions into columns, with a distance of 3.92 (3) Å between the naphthalene ring centroids. Adjacent π-stacked columns, co-linear with the b-axis, are linked by C—H⋯π interactions.

Changes in illuminated volume were kept to a minimum, and were taken into account (Görbitz, 1999) by the multi-scan inter-frame scaling (DENZO/SCALEPACK; Otwinowski & Minor, 1997).

To a solution of 1,8-diaminonaphthalene in toluene (4.11 mmol in 50 ml, 0.82M) (Letsinger, 1958, Slabber, 2011) was added the phenylboronic acid (4.11 mmol) in one portion. The round-bottomed flask was equipped with a Dean and Stark trap, and the solution was stirred and heated at 110°C for 3 h. The solvent was removed in vacuo and
of the crude solid on silica eluting with CH2Cl2 yielded pale green crystalline material in a yield of 77%. Crystals suitable for X-ray were grown from CH2Cl2 at room temperature.In the absence of significant
Friedel pairs were merged.The
was arbitrarily assigned.The relatively large ratio of minimum to maximum corrections applied in the multiscan process (1:nnn) reflect changes in the illuminated volume of the crystal.
Changes in illuminated volume were kept to a minimum, and were taken into account (Görbitz, 1999) by the multi-scan inter-frame scaling (DENZO/SCALEPACK, Otwinowski & Minor, 1997).
The H atoms were all located in a difference map, but those attached to carbon atoms were repositioned geometrically. The H atoms were initially refined with soft restraints on the bond lengths and angles to regularize their geometry (C—H in the range 0.93–0.98, N—H in the range 0.86–0.89 N—H to 0.86 O—H = 0.82 Å) and Uiso(H) (in the range 1.2–1.5 times Ueq of the parent atom), after which the positions were refined with riding constraints.

The title compound is approaching planarity. The biggest deviation from planarity lies in the phenyl ring, which subtends an angle of 9.0 (5)° ° relative to the naphthalene rings and the boron-nitrogen heterocycle. The N1—B—C11—C12 torsion angle is 6.0 (3) ° and the N2—B—C11—C16 torsion angle is 5.6 (3)°. The two N—B bonds are approximately equal (averaged to 1.414 (5) Å), the B—C11 bond length is 1.562 (2) Å. The N1—B—N2 bond angle measures 115.6 (2) ° while the N1—B—C11 and N2—B—C11 bond angles measure 122.0 (2) and 122.4 (2) °, respectively. These bond lengths and angles are in good agreement with those reported for structurally related diazaborolyl systems (Weber et al.).
The structure shows the molecules to be packed into infinite one-dimensional columns, supported by π···π interactions. The Cg1···Cg2 distance is 3.92 Å, where Cg1 and Cg2 are the centroids of two naphthyl rings of adjacent molecules. The one-dimensional chains run collinear with the b axis. The spacing between the mean planes of the naphthalene rings of two neighbouring molecules is 3.44 (4) Å. Two adjoining π—stacked columns are linked together by a C—H···π interaction between atoms C12–H12 and Cg3, where Cg3 is the centroid of the phenyl ring. The H12···Cg3 and C12···Cg3 distances are 2.86 (3)Å and 3.63 (3) Å, respectively, with a C12—H12 bond length of 0.970 (2) Å. The symmetry code is 2 - x, ½+y, 2 - z.
