Ethyl indole-2-carboxylate (18.9 g, 100 mmol) was dissolved in 200 ml ethanol; commercially available benzaldehyde (5.3 g, 50 mmol) was added and the mixture was heated to reflux temperature. Concentrated HCl (3.7 ml) was added and the reaction was left for 1 h. After cooling the white product was filtered off and washed thoroughly with ethanol. The reaction can be followed by TLC (CHCl3:hexane = 1:1). Yield was 90%. Crystals of the title compound suitable for X-ray analysis were obtained by slow evaporation of an ethanol solution.
H atoms were positioned geometrically, with N— H = 0.86 Å and C—H = 0.93, 0.96, 0.97 and 0.98 Å for aromatic, methyl, methylene and methine H, respectively, and constrained to ride on their parent atoms, with Uiso(H) = xUeq(C,N), where x = 1.5 for methyl H, and x = 1.2 for all other H atoms.

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. |

Indole derivatives are found abundantly in a variety of natural plants and exhibit various physiological properties (Poter et al., 1977; Sundberg, 1996). Among them, bis-indolymethane derivatives are found to be kinds of potentially bioactive compounds (Chang et al., 1999; Ge et al., 1999). In recent years, the synthesis and application of bis-indolymethane derivatives have been widely studied. The title compound is one of bis-indolymethane derivatives as a precursor for MRI Contrast Agents (Ni, 2008). We report here its crystal structure.
The molecular structure of the title compound is shown in Fig. 1. The benzene ring is twisted to the two indole rings with the dihedral angles of 73.5 (5) and 84.9 (3)°, respectively. Two indole rings make a dihedral angle of 82.0 (5)° to each other.
As shown in Figure 2, the molecules are linked by paired N—H···O hydrogen bonds into dimers in the crystal lattice. The structural parameters for the intermolecular hydrogen bonds resulting in the formation of dimers are given in Table 1.
