In the title compound, C18H14BrNO, the naphthalene ring system and the benzene ring form dihedral angles of 78.8 (2) and 19.7 (2)°, respectively, with the acetamide C—C(=O)—N plane. The naphthalene ring system forms a dihedral angle of 64.88 (19)° with the benzene ring. In the crystal, molecules are linked via intermolecular bifurcated (N,C)—H⋯O hydrogen bonds, generating an R21(6) ring motif, forming chains along the b axis.

Naphthalen-1-acetic acid (0.186g, 1 mmol) and 4-bromoaniline (0.172g, 1 mmol) were dissolved in dichloromethane (20 ml). The mixture was stirred in presence of triethylamine at 273 K for about 3 h. The contents were poured into 100 ml of ice-cold aqueous hydrochloric acid with stirring, and was extracted thrice with dichloromethane. Organic layer was washed with saturated NaHCO3 solution and brine solution, dried and concentrated under reduced pressure to give the title compound. Single crystals were grown from toluene and acetone mixture by the slow evaporation method (m.p.: 476-478 K).
Atom H1N1 was located from the difference Fourier map and refined using a riding model, with N1—H1N1 = 0.80 Å, and with Uiso(H) = 1.2Ueq(N). The remaining H atoms were positioned geometrically and refined using a riding model, with C—H = 0.93 or 0.97 Å and Uiso(H) = 1.2 Ueq(C). The same Uij parameters were used for atom pair C4/C5.

Geometry. All esds (except the esd in the dihedral angle between two l.s. planes) are estimated using the full covariance matrix. The cell esds are taken into account individually in the estimation of esds in distances, angles and torsion angles; correlations between esds in cell parameters are only used when they are defined by crystal symmetry. An approximate (isotropic) treatment of cell esds is used for estimating esds 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 > 2sigma(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-Substituted 2-arylacetamides are very interesting compounds because of their structural similarity to the lateral chain of natural benzylpenicillin (Mijin & Marinkovic, 2006; Mijin et al., 2008). Amides are also used as ligands due to their excellent coordination abilities (Wu et al., 2008, 2010) and for the therapy of thromboembolic disorder and effective anticoagulants for myocardial infarction and ischemic disease (Dorsch et al., 2002; Wang, Li & Li, 2010; Wang, Beck et al., 2010). Crystal structures of some acetamide derivatives, viz., 2-(4-bromophenyl)-N-(2-methoxyphenyl)acetamide (Xiao et al., 2010), N-benzyl-2-(2-bromophenyl)-2-(2-nitrophenoxy) acetamide (Li & Wu, 2010) and N-(3-chloro-4-fluorophenyl)-2- (naphthalen-1-yl)acetamide (Praveen et al., 2011) have been reported. In view of the importance of amides, we report herein the crystal structure of the title compound.
The molecular structure is shown in Fig. 1. Bond lengths (Allen et al., 1987) and angles are within normal ranges and are comparable to a related structure (Fun et al., 2010). The naphthalene ring system (C1–C10, maximum deviation of 0.022 (7) Å at atom C7) and the benzene ring (C13–C18) form dihedral angles of 78.8 (2) and 19.7 (2)°, respectively, with the acetamide moiety [O1/N1/C11/C12, maximum deviation of 0.014 (4) Å at atom C12]. The naphthalene ring system also forms dihedral angle of 64.88 (19)° with the benzene ring.
In the crystal packing (Fig. 2), molecules are linked via intermolecular bifurcated N1—H1N1···O1 and C11—H11A···O1 acceptor bonds (Table 1), generating an R21(6) ring motif, (Bernstein et al., 1995) to form one-dimensional chains along the [010] direction.
