The title compound [systematic name: (E)-2-hydroxy-5-(phenyldiazenyl)cyclohepta-2,4,6-trien-1-one], C13H10N2O2, is essentially planar with an r.m.s. deviation of 0.036 (2) Å and a dihedral angle of 1.57 (8)° between the phenyl and tropolone rings. In the crystal, molecules are linked by pairs of O—H⋯O hydrogen bonds into inversion dimers. The dimers are further connected by C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds and π–π stacking interactions, with centroid–centroid distances of 3.6934 (9) and 3.6282 (9) Å.

Sodium nitrite (1.4 mmol) dissolved in water (1 ml) was added dropwise to a solution containing aniline (1.6 mmol), hydrochloric acid (2 ml, conc) and water (7 ml). Upon cooling the resultant mixture to ca. 4 °C it was slowly added to a solution of sodium hydroxide (1.8 mmol), tropolone (1.6 mmol) in water (4 ml) keeping the temperature < 5 °C. The resulting solution was stirred for 30 minutes, filtered and air-dried. Crystals suitable for X-ray diffraction were obtained by recrystalization with CHCl3.
All H atoms were placed in geometrically idealized positions and constrained to ride on their parent atoms.
Due to the special nature of the tropolone ring it demonstrates similar aromaticity as the benzene ring, undergoing electrophilic substitution reactions with electrophilic reagents. As part of our study on the functionlization of the tropolone moeity we report the structure of the title compound, (I) (Fig. 1), with the aim of contributing to a deeper understanding of troponoids and its functionlization. The original tropolone
was done by Shimanouchi & Sasada (1973). A search of the Cambridge structural database (CSD) (Allen, 2002) yielded thirteen troponoid compounds with a mono-substituted 5-position, of these only seven were with the tropolone backbone, none of which had an azo linking group.In I the dihedral angle between the least-squares planes A (O1/O2/C1–C7/N1) and B (N2/C11–C16) was found to be 1.41 (6)°, resulting in an almost planar molecule with an r.m.s. deviation of 0.036 (2) Å. The largest variance from the molecular plane was found to be the O1 atom with a value of 0.058 (1) Å. The well known O—H···H interactions found for tropolone are present and lead to the formation of centrosymmetric dimers (Fig. 2). These interactions along with the last interaction found in Fig. 2, that of tropolone (C5) with an adjacent tropolone (O2) results in the formation of a planar sheet packing configuration (Fig 3). π–π Interactions were observed between the phenyl ring and the tropolone ring with a distance of 3.6934 (9) Å and two tropolone rings with a distance of 3.6282 (9) Å (Fig. 4).

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. |

Due to the special nature of the tropolone ring it demonstrates similar aromaticity as the benzene ring, undergoing electrophilic substitution reactions with electrophilic reagents. As part of our study on the functionlization of the tropolone moeity we report the structure of the title compound, (I) (Fig. 1), with the aim of contributing to a deeper understanding of troponoids and its functionlization. The original tropolone crystal structure was done by Shimanouchi & Sasada (1973). A search of the Cambridge structural database (CSD) (Allen, 2002) yielded thirteen troponoid compounds with a mono-substituted 5-position, of these only seven were with the tropolone backbone, none of which had an azo linking group.
In I the dihedral angle between the least-squares planes A (O1/O2/C1–C7/N1) and B (N2/C11–C16) was found to be 1.41 (6)°, resulting in an almost planar molecule with an r.m.s. deviation of 0.036 (2) Å. The largest variance from the molecular plane was found to be the O1 atom with a value of 0.058 (1) Å. The well known O—H···H interactions found for tropolone are present and lead to the formation of centrosymmetric dimers (Fig. 2). These interactions along with the last interaction found in Fig. 2, that of tropolone (C5) with an adjacent tropolone (O2) results in the formation of a planar sheet packing configuration (Fig 3). π–π Interactions were observed between the phenyl ring and the tropolone ring with a distance of 3.6934 (9) Å and two tropolone rings with a distance of 3.6282 (9) Å (Fig. 4).
