(Received 9 May 2013; accepted 31 January 2014; online 15 February 2014)

The title compound, C₃₀H₃₂N₄, was synthesized by the photodimerization of trans-4-{2-[4-(dimethylamino)phenyl]ethenyl}pyridine in benzene upon irradiation with UV light. This photodimer has a puckered cyclobutane ring with the four aryl substituents in an r-1,t-2,c-3,t conformation. The puckering angle of the cyclobutane ring is 32.22 (7)°, which is the largest among reported tetraaryl-substituted cyclobutanes. In the crystal, the molecules form a hollow, one-dimensional structure extending parallel to the c axis via two different pairs of C—H⋯π interactions.

Comment top

The photodimerization of styrylpyridines has been studied extensively in the past few decades (Horner & Hünig, 1982; Quina & Whitten, 1975; Zhang, Zhang, Zheng, Shen & Zhuang, 2000). As the protonation of the pyridine ring increases the solubility and dipolar interactions of styrylpyridines in water, most photodimerization reactions were carried out in acidic aqueous solution. The main tetraaryl substituted cyclobutane photodimers usually have head-to-tail central symmetric structures. However, the photodimerization of trans-4-[2-(4-dimethylaminophenyl)ethenyl]pyridine (A) in acidic aqueous solution failed (Zhang, Zhang, Zheng, Shen & Zhuang, 2000). Herein, the photodimerization of A was carried out in benzene and the photodimer (2A, Fig. 1) was successfully synthesized in 37% yield.

The structure of 2A shows that the four aryl substituents adopt the r-1,t-2,c-3,t-4 conformation, whereas the styrylpyridine photodimers synthesized in acidic aqueous solution adopt the head-to-tail r-1,c-2,t-3,t-4 conformation. In addition, the photodimer of 2-[2-(4-dimethylaminophenyl)ethenyl]benzoxazole synthesized in acetonitrile also adopts the head-to-tail r-1,c-2,t-3,t-4 conformation (Li et al., 2007). This difference is ascribed to solvent effects. The steric hindrance of the dimethylamino groups prevents A to align in a parallel manner in the non-polar benzene solvent, resulting in the all trans conformation of the adjacent aryl groups in 2A.

Several styrylpyridine photodimers such as r-1,c-2,t-3,t-4–1,3-bis[2-(4-R-phenyl)]-2,4-di(pyridin-4-yl)cyclobutane (R=Cl, CH₃ and C₆H₅) have been reported (Busetti et al., 1980; Zhang et al., 1998; Zhang, Zhang, Zheng, Wang & Zhao, 2000). The average dihedral angles of the cyclobutane rings are 19.2, 24.6 and 16.4°, respectively. In addition, the trans-head-to-head photodimer of 1-(4-methoxyphenyl)-2-(5-phenyl-1,3,4-oxadiazolyl)ethene also has a puckered cyclobutane ring with a dihedral angle of 30° (Zhuang & Zheng, 2002). Though the adjacent aryl groups of 2A adopt the all trans conformation, the dihedral angle of the cyclobutane ring is 32.22 (7)° which is the largest one among reported tetraaryl substituted cyclobutanes.

The C6—C7 and C6—C7A bond distances are 1.5594 (16) Å and 1.5519 (16) Å, and the C3—C6 and C7—C8 bond distances are 1.4962 (18) Å and 1.5011 (16) Å, which are similar to the corresponding bond distances in other tetraaryl substituted cyclobutanes (Zhang et al., 1998; Zhang, Zhang, Zheng, Wang & Zhao, 2000). The two phenyl rings (C8—C9—C10—C11—C12—C13 and C8A—C9A—C10A—C11A—C12A—C13A) are almost coplanar with the dihedral angle between them being only 1.78 (7)°.

The dimethylamino plane and the phenyl ring (C8—C9—C10—C11—C12—C13) are not coplanar, the torsion angle (C14—N2—C11—C10) is 17.48 (18)° which is larger than that in c-2, t-4-bis(2-benzoxazol-2-yl)-r-1,t-3-bis[4-(dimethylamino)phenyl]cyclobutane (Li et al., 2007). The distances of the two methyl groups (C14 and C15) from the mean plane of the phenyl ring are 0.2629 (22) and 0.2335 (22) Å respectively, indicating that the lone electron pair of the N atom is not completely conjugated with the phenyl ring. While the dimethylaminophenyl ring in trans-4-[(4-dimethylaminophenyl)ethenyl]-N-methylquinolinium p-toluenesulfonate monohydrate (Coe et al., 2005) is essentially planar because of the strong p-π conjugation between the dimethylamino group and the planar diarylethene molecule.

As shown in Figure 2, the molecules of 2A pack with each other to form a hollow, one-dimensional structure along the c axis. This arrangement appears to be directed by two sets of C—H···π interactions with that involving H15B stronger than that using H12 (Table 1).

Experimental top

A was synthesized according to the literature (Wang et al., 2005) and 1.97 g (8.78 mmol) was dissolved in 200 mL of benzene and irradiated with a water-cooled 125 W medium-pressure mercury lamp which was immersed in the solution. After irradiation for about 30 h, the solvent was evaporated to dryness and the crude product was separated by column chromatography (ethyl acetate: dichloromethane = 1: 1) to give 0.73 g of colorless crystals of 2 A. Yield, 37%; ¹H NMR (CDCl₃): δ 8.35 (d, 4H, J=4.8 Hz), 7.00 (d, 4H, J=4.8 Hz), 6.94 (d, 4H, J=6.4 Hz), 6.53 (d, 4H, J=6.4 Hz), 4.38 (d, 2H, J=9.0 Hz), 74.28 (d, 2H, J=9.0 Hz) p.p.m.. The single-crystal of 2A, suitable for X-ray analysis, was grown by slow evaporation of a methanol solution of 2A.

Special details top

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 > 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.
