Figure 1
(a) Schematic drawing of two analogues of (I)[link] in the Cambridge Structural Database (CSD, Version 5.37; Groom et al., 2016BB3) identified by their six-letter reference codes. (b) Number of entries in the CSD retrieved by using various search fragments. The raw quinolin-4(1H)-one skeleton (with potential substituents on all C and N atoms) yields 759 hits (including a small number of duplicates). Three types of specifications and combinations thereof are then explored: introduction of bonds to O atoms (–OH, alk­oxy or phen­oxy) from C6 and C7, N1-substitution (blue, subset aromatic ring), and including only acyclic bonds from C2 and C3 atoms (red, X = any atom type, subset H only). Green and violet colours indicate the two mol­ecules in (a). (c) Final CSD search fragment used in the conformational analysis. Dashed bonds have bond type `any', Q is N or C, Z is `not hydrogen', while T3 means the atom has three bonded atoms. The indicated torsion angle runs between the encircled atoms through the two ring centroids.
