In a 250 ml dry three-necked round-bottom flask, aluminium chloride (34.8 g, 0.26 mol) was dissolved in dry dichloromethane (150 ml), ortho-xylene (11.2 g, 0.105 mol) was added and then phthalic anhydride portion-wise with formation of an orange liquid in ice bath for 3 h while stirring. The mixture was reacted for 10 h while elevating the temperature of the reactor up to 303 K with formation of a yellow precipitate, then cooled down to room temperature and poured over a mixture of ice (20 g) and concentrated hydrochloric acid (10 ml) with a large amount of gas generated by HCl (Elofson et al., 1965). The organic layer was separated and the aqueous layer was extracted with dichloromethane (3 × 50 ml). The combined organic layers were washed with water (20 ml), concentrated in the rotary evaporator to give the pure yell compound, dried in vaccum and yield: 20.2 g, 80%. MS(EI): m/z = 254([M—CH3]+). Crystals suitable for X-ray analysis were obtained by evaporate slowly the solution of the compound in 25% aqueous ammonia in 88% yield within a month.
H atoms attached to carbons were geometrically fixed and allowed to ride on the corresponding non-H atom with C—H = 0.96 Å, and Uiso(H) = 1.5Ueq(C) of the attached C atom for methyl H atoms and 1.2Ueq(C) for other H atoms. The H atoms were constrained with N—H distances of 0.93–0.96 Å, Uiso(H) = 1.2Ueq(N) and O—H distance of 0.85–0.90 Å with Uiso(H) = 1.2Ueq(O).

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. |

Friedel-Crafts acylation provides a fundamentaland useful method for the synthesis of aromatic ketones, which are important intermediates for preparing fine chemicals in the field of pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, and fragrances. Typically, these reactions are performed using acyl chloride (for acylation) in the presence of a little more than one equivalent of Lewis acids, such as anhydrous aluminium chloride, titanium chloride and iron chloride (Elofson et al. 1965; Boon et al. 1986; Yeung et al. 2002; Gopalakrishnan et al. 2005; Qiao et al. 2008; Gouda et al. 2010). Herein we report the synthesis and structure of the title compound with aluminium chloride.
The structure of the title compound is shown in Fig. 1, Fig. 2 and hydrogen-bond geometry is given in Table 1. The compound crystallizes in the triclinic space group p-1,and the crystallographic asymmetric unit consists of one crystallo graphically independent anion, one ammonium cation and two water molecules. As shown in Fig.2, the dihedral angle is 73.2 between benzene rings which are not coplane. An interesting part of the structure of title compound is the helical chains formed by the N—H···O and O—H···O. hydrogen-bonding interactions along c axis in this molecule (Table 1 & Fig.3). Two neighouring N atoms formed helical chain (O3—N1—O4W—O2 andO2-O4W—N1—O3) which bridge two carboxy O3 atoms formed two oppposite handed chains with the bond distances of N1···O3 2.823 (3) Å, N1···O4w 3.067 (3) Å, O4W···O2 2.808 (2) Å. Further connection of the helices via N—H···O5W hydrogen bond with the bond distance of 2.871 Å gives the three-dimensional structure.
