In the title compound, C16H12BrNO3, the butyrolactone core adopts the furan-2(5H)-one structure and forms dihedral angles of 44.80 (17) and 65.73 (18)° with the bromobenzene and phenol rings, respectively. In the crystal, N—H⋯O and O—H⋯O hydrogen bonds link the molecules, generating R43(26) loops The edge-fused rings extend to form a chain running along the b-axis direction and C—H⋯π contacts help to consolidate the packing.

3-(4-bromophenyl)-4-hydroxyfuran-2(5H)-one (255 mg, 1 mmol) was prepared according to the procedure described by Xiao (Xiao et al., 2011a), which was added into a mixture of 4-hydroxyaniline (130 mg, 1.2 mmol) and p-toluene sulphonic acid (6.8 mg, 0.04 mmol). The resulted mixture was heated to 370 K for 10 min. Nine ml of toluene was then added and refluxed for 6 h. After toluene was removed under reduced pressure, the residue was purified by
on silica gel, eluting with EtOAc/petroleum ether (v/v = 2/1), which furnished colorless blocks of I by slow evaporation at room temperature.The H atom bonded to N1 was located in difference Fourier maps, and all other H atoms were placed in geometrically idealized positions and constrained to ride on their parent atoms with C—H = 0.93 Å for aromatic H atoms, 0.97 Å for CH2 type H atoms and O—H = 0.82 Å hydroxyl group, respectively. Uiso(H) values were set at 1.2 times Ueq(C) for all H atoms, and at 1.5 times Ueq(O) for hydrogxyl group.

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. |

Many compounds with γ-butyrolactone-core (furanone) show diverse biological activities such as antitumor and anti-inflammatory activity (Bailly et al., 2008; Weber et al., 2005). Recently, Xiao and his co-workers reported that 4-alkylamino or 4-arylamino derivatives of 3-arylfuran-2(5H)-one are potent inhibitors against tyrosyl-tRNA synthetase (TyrRS) (Xiao et al., 2011a and 2011b), one of the aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases (aaRSs). Herein, we report the crystal structure of the title compound (I) (Fig. 1), an 3-aryl-4-arylaminofuran-2(5H)-one.
The bond C7—C10 (1.364 (4) Å) was assigned as a double bond, and the title compound was therefore identified as a furan-2(5H)-one (Xiao et al., 2010; Xiao et al., 2011c). C10—N1 (1.332 (4) Å) bond has shorter bond distance than the standard C—N single bond (1.48 Å), but longer than C—N double bond (1.28 Å). This clearly indicated that a p orbital of N1 is conjugated with the π molecular orbital of C7—C10 double bond. However, the bond distance of C11—N1 is 1.437 (4) Å, much longer than that of C10—N1. This may be caused by the large dihedral angle [65.76 (28) °] between the amino group (C10, C11, N1 and H1) and the 4-hydroxybenzene ring, which significantly disrupted the conjugation between N1 and its attached benzene ring.
In the crystal, four molecules of I are connected by intermolecular N1—H1···O1 and O3—H3A···O1 interactions to generate a ring motif described by a graph-set motif of R43(26) (Fig. 2). The edge-fused rings extend to form a sheet running along the b axis. The resulted sheet is further stablized by C—H···π contacts (Fig. 3).
