The title mol­ecule, C13H11NO, is almost flat, the angle between the pyrrole and the phenyl rings being 10.9 (1)°. The atoms of the central C3O unit are coplanar, with a mean deviation from the plane of 0.001 (1) Å. The angles between this plane and the pyrrole and phenyl rings are 3.3 (1) and 8.0 (1)°, respectively. The mol­ecules form centrosymmetric dimers through a pair of N—H...O hydrogen bonds with an R22(10) motif.

Comment top

Chalcone derivatives possess wide variety of pharmaceutical properties, such as anticancer, antibacterial, antiviral, antiprotozoal, insecticidal and enzyme-inhibitory ones (Dimmock et al., 1999; Go et al., 2005; Opletalova, 2000). Some of the substituted chalcones are also reported to possess antileishmanial (Chen et al., 1999), antitubercular (Lin et al., 2002), trypanocidal (Lunardi et al., 2003) activities. As a part of our ongoing efforts in the chalcone compounds (Gong & Shen, 2007), the title compound is reported here for the first time.

In the title compound, C13H11NO, the bond lengths and angles are usual. The –NH groups are involved as donors to form centrosymmetric dimers with a motif R22(10) through N—H···O hydrogen bonds (Etter et al., 1990) - (Fig. 2). There is a pyrrole-H···π-phenyl-ring interaction as indicate the geometric parameters C2—H2···Centroid(phenyl) (1 - x, y, 3/2 - z) where the distance H···centroid and C2···centroid equal to 2.90 and 3.666 (3) Å, respectively, and the angle C2—H2···Centroid(phenyl) equals to 141° (Spek, 2003).

Experimental top

2-Acetylpyrrole (2.18 g, 20.0 mmol) was added to a solution of benzaldehyde (1.06 g, 10.0 mmol) in methanol (65 ml). Then potassium hydroxide (1.12 g, 20 mmol) and ammonia (25%, 50 ml) were added to the solution and refluxed for 12 h. The resulting solution was cooled and the solvent was evaporated under vacuum to give an orange precipitate which was separated by filtration, washed with iced ethanol (95%) and water to pH = 7. Recrystallization from dichloromethane gave light yellow prism-like crystals with average size of about 1.50x0.35x0.25 mm. Yield: 0.89 g (45%).

Refinement top

All the H atoms could be distinguished in the difference Fourier map. Nevertheless, the H atoms were set into idealized positions and constrained by the riding motion formalism: The C—H and N—H distances were set to 0.93 and 0.86 Å, respectively, while Uiso=1.2Ueq of the pertinent carrier atom.

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.
