In the title compound, C13H18N2O4, the dihedral angle between the benzene and pyrrolidine (all atoms) rings is 70.6 (1)°. The pyrrolidine ring adopts a half-chair conformation. In the crystal, molecules form chains along the c-axis direction linked by O—H⋯N hydrogen bonds, which are then connected by C—H⋯O interactions, forming a sheet parallel to the bc plane.

Typical Procedure for the synthesis of (E)-3-(4-methoxyphenyl)-2-nitroprop-2-en-1-ol:
To a stirred soln of (E)-1-methoxy-4-(2-nitrovinyl)benzene (10 mmol) in THF (20 mL) at r.t. was added imidazole (1 equiv) followed by anthranilic acid (10 mol%). Aq formaldehyde (38%, 20 mL, excess) was then added and the mixture was stirred at r.t. for the period of 48h. On completion of the reaction (TLC analysis), the mixture was acidified with 5 M HCl (20 mL) and the aqueous layer was extracted with EtOAc (3 × 25 mL). The combined organic layers were washed with brine (50 mL), dried (anhyd Na2SO4), and concentrated in vacuo. The residue was purified by
(silica gel, EtOAc–hexanes, 0–25%, gradient elution) to afford pure (E)-3-(4-methoxyphenyl)-2-nitroprop-2-en-1-ol in 50% yield as yellow oil.A mixture of (E)-3-(4-methoxyphenyl)-2-nitroprop-2-en-1-ol (2 mmol,0.42 g), para formaldehyde (12 mmol,0.36 g) and sacrosine (6 mmol,0.53 g) in acetonitrile(8 ml) was refluxed for 8hrs. After the completion of the reaction as indicated by TLC, the reaction mixture was concentrated and the resulting crude mass was diluted with water (20 ml) and extracted with ethyl acetate (3x10ml) and dried over anhydrous Na2SO4.The organic layer was concentrated and purified by
on silica gel (Acme 100–200 mesh), using ethyl acetate:hexane (3:7) to provide the title compound as a colourless solid in 73% (0.39 g) yield.H atoms were positioned geometrically and treated as riding on their parent atoms, with C—H distance of 0.93 - 0.97 Å, O—H distance of 0.82 Å and Uiso(H) = 1.2Ueq(N,C).

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. |

The stucture of the title compound, (I), is shown below. Dimensions are available in the archived CIF.
Pyrrolidine ring is present in many biologically active natural compounds and pharmaceuticals (Gu et al., 2004), and find utility in the treatment of diseases such as diabetes (Horri et al.,1986), and viral infections (Karpas et al., 1988).
The bond lengths C8—C13 = 1.525 (2) Å; C13—N1=1.460 (2) Å; C11—N1 = 1.462 (2) Å; C11—C9= 1.520 (2) Å; C8—C9= 1.566 (2) Å are longer than the normal values but are comparable with the values of such distances in the reported structure (Jayabharathi et al., 2009). This may be due to the steric forces caused by the bulky group at C8 and C9 of pyrrolidine moiety. C1—O1 [1.416 (3) Å] is longer than C2—O1 [1.367 (2) Å]; this may be due the end atom C1.The dihedral angle between phenyl and pyrrolidine ring is 70.6 (1)°. The sum of angles around N3 [360°] and N1[329.1 (1)°] indicates sp2and sp3hybridization, respectively. The five membered ring adopts half chair conformation.The crystal structure is stabilized by intermolecular O—H···N and C—H···O type hydrogen bonds.
