A Z configuration about the imine bond [1.3025 (18) Å] in the title compound, C14H19N3O, allows for the formation of an intramoleclar N—H⋯N hydrogen bond between the hydrazone H and piperidine N atoms; the carbonyl group is disposed to lie over the piperidine residue, which is in a chair form. A twist between the terminal benzene ring and the hydrazine residue is seen [N—N—C—C torsion angle = 163.81 (12)°]. Helical supramolecular chains along the c axis mediated by N—H⋯O hydrogen bonds are the most prominent feature of the crystal packing. The chains are connected into layers lying in the ac plane by weak C—H⋯π contacts involving two methylene H atoms and an adjacent benzene ring.

This compound was prepared by the reaction of 2-oxo-N'-phenylpropanehydrazonoyl chloride with piperidine (Frohberg et al., 1995). The yellow prisms of (I) were isolated from its ethanol solution by slow evaporation at room temperature.
Carbon-bound H-atoms were placed in calculated positions [C—H 0.95 to 0.99 Å, Uiso(H) 1.2 to 1.5Ueq(C)] and were included in the
in the riding model approximation. The amino-H atom was located in a difference Fourier map, and subsequently refined freely.Data collection: CrysAlis PRO (Agilent, 2010); cell

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) and related amidrazone derivatives are known to possess biological activity (Frohberg et al., 2006), the motivation for on-going studies in this area (Abdel-Aziz & Mekawey, 2009; Abdel-Aziz et al., 2010). In the molecule of (I), Fig. 1, the configuration about the imine N2═C6 bond [1.3025 (18) Å] is Z. This places the hydrazone-N3—H in close proximity to the piperidinyl-N1 enabling the formation of an intramolecular N—H···N hydrogen bond (Table 1). The carbonyl group is disposed to lie over the piperidinyl group which adopts a chair conformation. The benzene group is twisted out of the plane through the hydrazine residue to which it is connected as seen in the value of the N2—N3—C9—C10 torsion angle of 163.81 (12) °. The piperidinyl group is disposed to be almost normal to the rest of the molecule so that the dihedral plane formed through its least-squares plane and that through the O1,N2,N3,C6,C7,C9 atoms is 85.26 (6) °.
In the crystal, molecules are connected into a helical supramolecular chain mediated by N—H···O hydrogen bonds (Table 1). Chains are orientated along the c axis and are connected into a supramolecular array in the ac plane by C—H···π interactions involving methylene-H atoms associated with the bifurcated benzene ring (Table 1 and Fig. 2).
