The title compound, C15H16F3NO4, is an N-substituted derivative of ortho-trifluoromethylaniline featuring a twofold Michael system. The least-squares planes defined by the atoms of the phenyl ring and the atoms of the Michael system enclose an angle of 15.52 (5)°. Apart from classical intramolecular N—H⋯O and N—H⋯F hydrogen bonds, intermolecular C—H⋯O contacts are observed, the latter connecting the molecules into chains along [110]. The shortest intercentroid distance between two aromatic systems is 3.6875 (9) Å.

A suspension of 2-(trifluoromethyl) aniline (1.0 g, 0.0062 mol) and diethyl(ethoxymethylene) malonate (4.02 g, 0.0186 mol) was heated to 110 °C for 4 h. The reaction mixture was cooled. The solid product obtained was filtered, washed with pet ether and recrystallized using ethanol. Yield: 1.81 g, 88.29%, m. p. 357–358 K, (Eswaran et al., 2009).
Carbon-bound H atoms were placed in calculated positions (C—H 0.95 Å for aromatic and vinylic C atoms, C—H 0.99 Å for methylene groups) and were included in the
in the riding model approximation, with U(H) set to 1.2Ueq(C). The H atoms of the methyl groups were allowed to rotate with a fixed angle around the C–C bond to best fit the experimental electron density (HFIX 137 in the SHELX program suite (Sheldrick, 2008)), with U(H) set to 1.5Ueq(C). The nitrogen-bound H atom was placed in a calculated position (N—H 0.88 Å) and was included in the in the riding model approximation, with U(H) set to 1.2Ueq(N)Data collection: APEX2 (Bruker, 2010); cell

Esters of trifluoroaniline are very important intermediates to synthesize 8-fluoroquinoline derivatives, this moiety is of great importance to chemists as well as biologists as it is one of the key building elements for many naturally occurring compounds. Members of this family have a wide range of applications in pharmaceuticals as antimalarial (Kaur et al., 2010), anti-tuberculosis (Eswaran et al., 2010), antitumor (Chou et al., 2010), anticancer (Chen et al., 2004) and antiviral (Shingalapur et al., 2009) agents. In view of the biological importance, we have synthesized the title compound to study its crystal structure.
Resonance between the aromatic system and the N-bonded twofold Michael system (an α,β-unsaturated carbonyl compound moiety, see for instance, McMurry, 1992) renders the carbon–nitrogen backbone of the molecule nearly planar, with the least-sqaures planes defined by the carbon atoms of the phenyl ring on the one hand and the non-hydrogen atoms of the twofold Michael system on the other hand enclosing an angle of only 15.52 (5) ° (Fig. 1). In the crystal, classical intramolecular hydrogen bridges of the N–H···O and N–H···F type can be observed between the secondary amine group and two of the fluorine atoms of the trifluoromethyl group and one of the double-bonded oxygen atoms. In addition, an intramolecular C–H···F contact (dC···F: 2.6805 (19) Å) involving one of the hydrogen atoms on the aromatic systems is obvious that explains the in-plane conformation of one of the trifluoromethyl group's fluorine atoms with the plane defined by the carbon atoms of the phenyl group. Intermolecular C–H···O contacts whose range falls by more than 0.1 Å below the sum of van-der-Waals radii of the atoms participating in them are present in the crystal structure. In terms of graph-set analysis (Etter et al., 1990; Bernstein et al., 1995), the descriptor for the latter type of contacts is C11(10) on the unitary level. In total, the molecules are connected to infinite chains along [1 1 0]. Information about metrical parameters of these interactions can be found in Table 1. The shortest intercentroid distance between two aromatic systems was measured at 3.6875 (9) Å (Fig. 2).
