In the title compound, C17H11F3O2, the dihydroindene ring is approximately planar with a maximum deviation of 0.024 (2) Å and makes a dihedral angle of 3.17 (8) Å with the adjacent benzene ring. In the crystal, molecules are interconnected by C—H⋯O interactions, forming an infinite chain along the c axis.

A mixture of 2,3-dihydro-1H-indene-1-one (0.001 mmol) and 4-trifluoromethoxy benzaldehyde (0.001 mmol) was dissolved in methanol (10 ml) and 30% sodium hydroxide solution (5 ml) was added and stirred for 5 h. After completion of the reaction as evident from TLC, the mixture was poured into crushed ice and then neutralized with Con HCl. The precipitated solid was filtered, washed with water and recrystallized from ethanol to reveal the title compound as light yellow crystals.
All H-atoms were positioned geometrically and refined using a riding model, with C—H = 0.95 and 0.99 Å, and with Uiso = 1.2Ueq(C).

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. |

Recently it has been reported that dihydroindeno derivatives represent a novel class of KDR kinase inhibitors (Dinges et al. 2006) with inhibition of both KDR and cKit in the appropriate tumor types. They also have the potential to produce antitumor effects through two distinct mechanisms. Inhibition of cKit should result in direct effects on the tumor cell phenotype, while inhibition of KDR should produce indirect effects via disruption of endothelial cell function (Garton et al. 2006). Some of the heterocyclic derivatives inhibited the release of chemical mediators from mast cells, neutrophils, macrophages, and microglial cells in vitro, and suppressed the oedematous response in vivo (Lin et al. 1997, Hsieh et al. 1998, Ko et al. 2003). Many antitumor drugs have been developed for prostate cancer patients but their intolerable systemic toxicity often limits their clinical use. The title compound contains the dihydroindene unit and its structure is reported here, Fig 1.
All bond lengths (Allen et al., 1987) and angles in (I) are within normal ranges. The dihydroindene ring is planar with a maximum deviation of 0.024 (2)Å and it makes a dihedral angle of 3.17 (8)° with the adjancent benzene ring (Fig. 1). In the crystal, the molecules are interconnected by C—H···O interactions (Table 1) to form infinite chains along the c axis (Fig. 2).
