In the title molecule, C29H29N5, the indole ring systems are essentially planar, with maximum deviations of 0.020 (2), 0.023 (2) and 0.016 (2) Å. The dihedral angles formed between the mean planes of the three indole ring systems are 38.08 (7), 89.64 (8) and 58.28 (8)°. In the crystal, molecules are connected by N—H⋯N hydrogen bonds, forming inversion dimers. An intramolecular N—H⋯N hydrogen bond is also observed.

Ethylenediamine (0.6 g, 10 mmol) and 1H-indole-3-carbaldehyde (2.9 g, 20 mmol) were dissolved in methanol (50 ml), sodium cyanoborohydride (2.5 g,40 mmol) was then added and the solution stirring at room temperature for 36 h. The mixture was then poured onto water and extracted with dichloromethane twice. The organic layer was washed with brine, dried over with MgSO4, filtered, and the solvent was removed under reduced pressure. Flash
on a silica column with methanol/dichloromthane (1:3,%v/v) and then recrystallization from methanol solution gave colourless crystals of the title compound (1.35 g,29% yield based on the ethylenediamine).All carbon-bound H atoms were constrained to their expected geometries [C—H 0.93 and 0.97 Å] and refined with Uiso(H) = 1.2Ueq(C). H atoms bonded to N atoms were refined with the constraint N—H = 0.82 (2)Å and Uiso(H) = 1.2Ueq(N).

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 indole group is a benzo-fused, electron rich aromatic compound widely distributed in natural products, which show important biological activities (Shimazaki et al., 2009). Design and synthesis of new transition metal complexes including indole groups are very interesting and important for bioinorganic and bioorganic chemistry. The indole ring system has been shown to have versatile metal binding abilities involving a metal ion with both nitrogen and carbon atoms (Takani et al.2006; Munjal et al.2010; Zhu et al.2012). During the condensation reaction of ethylenediamine and 1H-indole-3-carbaldehyde, the title compound was obtained as a side-product. Herein we report the crystal structure of the title compound (I).
The molecular structure of (I) is shown in Fig. 1. The indole ring systems are essentially planar with maximum deviations in each ring of 0.020 (2), 0.023 (2) and 0.016 (2)Å for N3, C19 and C22, respectively. The dihedral angles formed between the three indole ring systems are 38.08 (7)° for C4-C11/N3 and C13-C20/N4, 89.64 (8)° for C4-C11/N3 and C22-C29/N5, and 58.28 (8)° for C13-C20/N4 and C22-C29/N5. In the crystal, molecules are connected by N—H···N hydrogen bonds, forming inversion dimers. An intramolecular N—H···N hydrogen bond is also observed (Table 1). .
