Two closely related 2-(benzo-furan-2-yl)-2-oxoethyl benzoates: structural differences and C-H?O hydrogen-bonded supra-molecular assemblies.


ABSTRACT: The compounds 2-(1-benzo-furan-2-yl)-2-oxoethyl 2-nitro-benzoate, C17H11NO6 (I), and 2-(1-benzo-furan-2-yl)-2-oxoethyl 2-amino-benzoate, C17H13NO4 (II), were synthesized under mild conditions. Their mol-ecular structures were characterized by both spectroscopic and single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. The mol-ecular conformations of both title compounds are generally similar. However, different ortho-substituted moieties at the phenyl ring of the two compounds cause deviations in the torsion angles between the carbonyl group and the attached phenyl ring. In compound (I), the ortho-nitro-phenyl ring is twisted away from the adjacent carbonyl group whereas in compound (II), the ortho-amino-phenyl ring is almost co-planar with the carbonyl group. In the crystal of compound (I), two C-H?O hydrogen bonds link the mol-ecules into chains propagating along the c-axis direction and the chains are inter-digitated, forming sheets parallel to [20-1]. Conversely, pairs of N-H?O hydrogen bonds in compound (II) link inversion-related mol-ecules into dimers, which are further extended by C-H?O hydrogen bonds into dimer chains. These chains are inter-connected by ?-? inter-actions involving the furan rings, forming sheets parallel to the ac plane.
