Comment top

The 1,4-enedione framework is frequently found in bioactive natural products and medicinal compounds. In addition, by virtue of their multifunctional composition, 1,4-enediones could serve as versatile precursors for heterocycle synthesis, Diels-Alder cycloaddition, as well as many other useful transformations. We report here the crystal structure of the title compound (Fig. 1). The crystal packing exhibits offset π-π stacking interactions.

Experimental top

The title compound was synthesized according to the reported literature (Gao et al., 2010). Crystals suitable for X-ray diffraction were grown by slow evaporation of a ethyl acetate-hexane (2:1) solution of the title compound at 293 K.

Refinement top

All H atoms were positioned in geometrically idealized positions and constrained to ride on their parent atoms, with C—H distances in the range 0.93–0.97 Å and Uiso(H) = 1.2Ueq(C) or Uiso(H) = 1.5Ueq(CMe).

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.
