(Received 26 May 2013; accepted 12 July 2013; online 31 July 2013)

The title compound, C13H6Br2O4, derived from xanthone, a fundamental structural framework of active ingredients in many medicinal plants, and was synthesized by bromination of 1,3-di­hydroxyxanthen-9-one with N-bromo­succinimide. The mol­ecular conformation is essentially planar, the dihedral angle between the benzene rings being 1.1 (4)°. This conformation is favorable for the formation of an intra­molecular O—H⋯O hydrogen bond between a hy­droxy group and the xanthone carbonyl group. In the crystal, mol­ecules are associated into chains along the b-axis direction via C=O⋯H—O hydrogen bonds involving the other hy­droxy group.

Comment top

Xanthone, also named as dibenzo-γ-pyrone, is a fundamental structural framework of active ingredients in many medicinal plants, which derivatives have broad pharmacological activities, such as antioxidant (Cheng et al., 2011), antitumor (Sousa et al., 2009), anticonvulsant (Szkaradek et al., 2013) and inhibition of neuraminidase activity (Dao et al., 2012). The title compound in this study is a new xanthone derivative, which was synthesized by bromination of 1,3-dihydroxy-xanthen-9-one (Liu et al., 2006) with NBS.

We report here the synthesis and crystal structure of 2,4-dibromo-1,3-dihydroxy-xanthen-9-one (C13H6Br2O4, Fig. 1). The molecule of the title compound has a planar conformation, with characteristic bond lengths C2—Br1 = 1.893 (5) Å and C4—Br2 = 1.902 (5) Å. The molecular conformation is mainly controlled by the O4—H4···O2 intramolecular hydrogen bond between the hydroxy OH group and the carbonyl O atom. Molecules are further connected into a one-dimensional supramolecular architecture via O3—H3···O2 intermolecular hydrogen bonds (Fig. 2). The title compound has the same planar molecular conformation as that reported for other 1-hydroxy-9H-xanthen-9-one derivatives (Corrêa et al., 2010), while the carbonyl bond length C7O2, 1.262 (7) Å, is slightly larger than the corresponding carbonyl bond lengths in these derivatives.

Experimental top

The title compound was synthesized using the following procedure: in a 50 ml flask, 1,3-dihydroxy-xanthen-9-one (1010 mg, 4.43 mmol; Liu et al., 2006) was dissolved in CCl4 (15 ml), then NBS (500 mg, 2.83 mmol) was added. The mixture was stirred at room temperature for 24 h. The residue was washed with acetone and then filtered. The yellow solid was collected and dried. Recrystallization from methanol solution afforded 2,4-dibromo-1,3-dihydroxy-xanthen-9-one as yellow crystals. The compound identity was confirmed by NMR spectroscopy. 1H NMR (500 MHz, DMSO-d6): 13.63 (s, 1H), 8.09 (dd, J = 7.9, 1.6 Hz, 1H), 7.87 (td, J = 7.8, 1.5 Hz, 1H), 7.59 (d, J = 8.4 Hz, 1H), 7.48 (t, J = 7.5 Hz, 1H).

Refinement top

The H atoms on C and O atoms were positioned geometrically and refined using a riding model, with C—H = 0.93 Å and Uiso(H) = 1.2Ueq(C), and with O—H = 0.82 Å and Uiso(H) = 1.5Ueq(O).
