Comment top

The title compound (Fig. 1) includes a triphenylamine group and a C^NN (HC^NN = 6-aryl-2,2'-bipyridine) moiety. The triphenylamine group has an extended conjugated system, and is usually used in organic light-emitting diodes (OLED), due to its high holes mobility (Ye et al., 2010). The C^NN moiety is a better donor than terpyridine and has a better π-acceptor ability than the C^NC moiety (HC^NCH = 2, 6-diphenylpyridine) (Lu et al., 2004). The title compound can be used as an intermediate for 6-aryl-2,2'-bipyridine metal complexes (Shen et al., 2012) and may find applications in light-emitting devices and dye-sensitized devices (Neve et al., 2002).

The bond lengths around the amine N atom, N1—C5, N1—C8 and N1—C14, differ from each other, which are 1.4079 (19), 1.4285 (18) and 1.4256 (18) Å, respectively. The bond distance of C23—C31 is almost equal to the bond distance of C24—C25, but the dihedral angles of the phenyl group and pyridine moiety is slightly different from that of pyridine moiety and the terminal pyridine ring, which are 10.45 and 14.49°, respectively. The central core of rings is also twisted, with the torsion angle C17—C19—C20—C21 being 142.01°.

Experimental top

4-(Diphenylamino)benzaldehyde (1.00 g), acetophenone (0.88 g), and NaOH (0.22 g) were dissolved in 10 ml of ethanol and the mixture was refluxed for about 12 h. The precipitate was filtered, purified by recrystallization from ethanol, yielding 1.21 g of yellow solid, (E)-3-[4-(diphenylamino)phenyl]-1-phenylprop-2-en-1-one (D1). Yield: 88%. D1 (1.00 g), 1-(pyridin-2-yl)ethanone (0.32 g), and NaOH (0.13 g) were crushed together with a pestle and mortar at room temperature for 1 h. The mixture was purified by recrystallization from ethanol, affording 1.2 g of solid, 3-[4-(diphenylamino)phenyl]-1-phenyl-5-(pyridin-2-yl)pentane-1,5-dione (D2). Yield: 91%. D2 (1.00 g) and ammonium acetate (4.66 g) were dissolved in 20 ml of ethanol and refluxed for 24 h. The precipitate was filtered, purified by recrystallization from a mixture of dichloromethane and ethanol, to give 0.85 g of a yellow solid, N,N-diphenyl-4-(6-phenyl-2,2'-bipyridin-4-yl)aniline (D3). Yield: 89%. The title compound was obtained through the Vilsmeier-Haack reaction of D3 (0.85 g). The precipitate was purified by flash chromatography on silica gel using petroleum/ethyl acetate (8:1) as eluent, affording 0.62 g of a yellow solid. Yield: 69%. ¹H NMR (400 MHz, CDCl₃) 7.13 (d, J = 8.0 Hz, 2H), 7.22 (d, J = 8.0 Hz, 3H), 7.29 (t, 2H), 7.37 (m, 3H), 7.46 (t, 1H), 7.53 (t, 2H), 7.73 (t, 2H), 7.79 (d, J = 8.0 Hz, 2H), 7.87 (t, 1H), 7.97 (s, 1H), 8.21 (d, J = 7.6 Hz, 2H), 8.63 (s, 1H), 8.70 (t, 2H), 9.85 ppm (s, 1H). ¹³C NMR (100 MHz) 117.18, 118.04, 120.38, 121.54, 123.90, 125.47, 125.83, 126.49, 127.09, 128.54, 128.79, 129.16, 129.18, 129.92, 131.38, 134.79, 136.94, 139.44, 146.00, 147.12, 149.08, 149.33, 152.96, 156.28, 156.34, 157.23, 190.54 ppm.
