Comment top

Chalcone derivatives have been synthesized by us to study their nonlinear optical properties, since they are prominent materials with excellent blue-light transmittance and good crystallizability (Patil, Teh et al., 2006; Patil, Dharmaprakash et al., 2006; Shettigar et al., 2006; Patil, Ng et al., 2007; Patil, Rosli et al., 2007; Patil, Chantrapromma et al., 2007). The single-crystal X-ray structural study of the title compound, (I), was undertaken in order to establish the structure and conformation of the various groups. Crystallization of compound (I) in a centrosymmetric space group precludes second-order nonlinear optical properties.

There are two independent molecules, A and B, in the asymmetric unit of (I) (Fig. 1). Bond lengths and angles in (I) are in normal ranges (Allen et al., 1987) and comparable with those in related structures (Patil, Teh et al., 2006; Patil, Dharmaprakash et al., 2006; Shettigar et al., 2006; Patil, Ng et al., 2007; Patil, Chantrapromma et al., 2007). The dihedral angle between the two benzene rings is 45.94 (8)° in molecule A and 46.82 (7)°

in molecule B. In molecule A, the least-squares plane through the

O1/C6/C7/C8 group makes dihedral angles of 28.83 (9) and 21.34 (9)° with the C1–C6 and C10–C15 benzene rings, repectively; the corresponding values are 27.56 (9) and 23.85 (9)°, respectively, in molecule B.

A view of the molecular packing in the crystal structure is shown in Fig. 2. The crystal packing is stabilized by weak C—H···π interactions (Table 1; Cg1, Cg2, Cg3 and Cg4 denote the centroids of the rings C1A–C6A, C10A–C15A, C1B–C6B and C10B–C15B, respectively).

Experimental top

3-Methoxybenzaldehyde (0.01 mol) and 4-bromoacetophenone (0.01 mol) were stirred in methanol (60 ml) at room temperature. 10% NaOH aqueous solution (5 g) was added and the mixture was stirred for 4 h. The resulting precipitate was filtered off, washed with water and dried. The resulting crude product was recrystallized from acetone. Colourless block-shaped single crystals of (I) suitable for X-ray analysis were grown by slow evaporation of an acetone solution at room temperature.

Special details top

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.
