In the zwitterionic title compound, C17H11NO5, the dihedral angle between the two aromatic rings is 76.90 (7)°. The dihedral angles between the carboxyl groups and the benzene ring are 64.02 (9) and 21.67 (9)°, the larger angle being associated with an intramolecular N—H⋯Ocarboxyl hydrogen bond, resulting from proton transfer from the carboxylic acid group to the quinoline N atom and giving an S(9) ring motif. In the crystal, molecules are connected by O—H⋯O hydrogen bonds into chains extending along the b-axis direction. An overall two-dimensional network structure is formed through π–π interactions between the quinoline rings [minimum ring-centroid separation = 3.6068 (6) Å].

3-Nitropthalonitrile (1.73 g, 10.0 mmol), 8-hydroxyquinoline (1.45 g, 10.0 mmol) and K2CO3 (4.14 g, 30.0 mmol) were suspended in dry DMF (20 ml) and stirred at room temperature under a nitrogen atmosphere for 4 h. The reaction mixture was then poured into water (200 ml), and the crude product was separated by filtration and purified by
on silica gel using CH2Cl2 as an After removal of the solvent by rotary evaporation, 2.25 g of 3-(quinolin-8-yloxy)-phthalonitrile was obtained in a yield of 83%. Under nitrogen, 2.71 g, 10.0 mmol) of this compound and KOH (1.20 g, 30.0 mmol) were suspended in 30 ml of distilled water and refluxed until the solution turned clear. After being cooled to room temperature, the pH of the reaction mixture was slowly adjusted to about 5–6 using HCl (6.0 mol/L) with stirring. The solid product was separated by filtration, and then washed successively with water (3 times 30 ml). After drying under vacuum, 2.78 g of final produc was obtained in a yield of 91%. The solid was dissolved in methyl alcohol and the filtered solution was evaporated slowly at room temperature for 5–10 days, giving colorless crystals suitable for X-ray structure analysis.Carboxylic acid H atoms were located in a difference-Fourier analysis and their positional and isotropic displacement parameters were refined. Other H-atoms were placed in geometrically determined positions and were treated as riding, with C—H = 0.93 Å and with Uiso(H) = 1.2Ueq(C).

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. |

Phthalic acid derivatives have proved useful as ligands for the construction of coordination polymers which have a number of potential applications (Zhang, Su, Song et al., 2006; Zhang, Su, Li et al., 2006; Su et al., 2007; Wang et al., 2009). As a part of our investigation of the rare earth coordination networks based on these phthalic acid derivatives, we report here the crystal structure of the title compound, the zwitterionic substituted phthalic acid C17H11NO5 (Fig. 1). In this molecule, the carboxylic acid substituent group at C15 has protonated the quinoline N-atom, giving an intramolecular N—H···Ocarboxyl hydrogen-bonding association [graph set S9 (Etter et al., 1990)]. The dihedral angles between the carboxyl groups and the benzene ring are 64.02 (9)° and 21.67 (9)°, the larger angle being associated with the intramolecular hydrogen bond. The molecules are connected by intermolecular carboxylic acid O—H···O hydrogen bonds (Table 1) giving one-dimensional chains which extend along the b axial direction and give an overall two-dimensional network structure through π–π interactions between the quinoline rings [minimum ring centroid separation, 3.6068 (6) Å] (Fig. 2).
