Percec-type biphenyl dendrons (Percec et al. 2006, 2007) are synthesized in a multi-step reaction sequence wherein the key synthetic step is the formation of sp2sp2 carbon–carbon bonds. This is achieved using various cross-coupling reactions (Corbet & Mignani 2006). The title compound is synthesized in a gram-scale using the Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling reaction (Miyaura & Suzuki 1995), catalyzed by either palladium (Miyaura et al. 1981; Wolfe et al. 1999) or nickel (Percec et al. 2004, 2006). Biphenyl derivatives expand the scope and limitations of aryl ethers and esters (Nummelin et al. 2000) that serve as tectons for the construction of amphiphilic dendrons. Percec-type dendrons self-assemble into hollow and non-hollow cylindrical and spherical supramolecular dendrimers that further self-organize into hexagonal and cubic lattices (Percec et al. 2006, 2007, 2008; Peterca et al. 2006). As a contribution to a structural study of biphenyl derivatives (Lahtinen et al. 2013a,b,c; Li et al. 2012a,b) we report here the title compound 3,4-dimethoxy-4'-methyl biphenyl (I).

The compound (I) crystallizes in monoclinic P21/c (No. 14) spacegroup having a single molecule in an asymmetric unit (Figure 1). The intramolecular dihedral angle between the phenyl rings is 30.5 (2)° [C(4)–C(5)–C(8)–C(9)] thereby being analogous to those found in similar biphenyls reported earlier (Lahtinen et al. 2013a,b,c). The methoxy groups at 3- and 4-positions are co-planar in relation to the phenyl ring [C8>C13] with dihedral angles of -5.0 (2)° and 1.4 (2)°, respectively. Molecules are packed in head-to-head (methoxy-phenyl part) and tail-to-tail (methyl-phenyl part) formation (Figure 2) in zigzagged rows running parallel to (201) plane. By this, a columnar packing is formed in which methoxy and methyl layers alternate along a-axis (Figures 3 and 4). Network of C–H···π interactions occur between methoxy H atoms and phenyl groups with distance of 4.218 (2) Å. Infinite network of edge-to-face ππ interactions occur between phenyl rings (Figure 5) troughout the lattice along with (011) plane with distance of 5.047 (1) Å. Also weak C–H···O hydrogen bond network exist between the adjacent methoxy groups with D···A distances varying from 3.356 (2) to 3.694 (2) Å.

Experimental top

A dry Schlenk-tube was charged with 4-methylphenylboronic acid (6.0 g, 44.1 mmol), potassium fluoride (5.1 g, 88.3 mmol), 1-bromo-3,4-dimethoxybenzene (6.4 g, 29.4 mmol), Pd(OAc)2 (66 mg, 0.29 mmol, 1.0 mol%) and 2-(di-tert-butylphosphino)biphenyl (176 mg, 0.59 mmol, 2.0 mol%). The flask was sealed with a teflon screwcap, evacuated/backfilled with argon five times. Dry, degassed THF (40 ml) was added via syringe. The reaction mixture was stirred at ambient temperature until the aryl chloride had been completely consumed as judged by TLC analysis. The mixture was diluted with ether, filtered, and washed with 1M NaOH. The aqueous layer was extracted with ether, the combined organic layer was washed with brine and dried with Na2SO4. The crude product was purified by flash column chromatography: silica gel/CH2Cl2. Yield: 6.2 g (92%) of a white crystalline solid. Crystals suitable for a single-crystal structure determination were obtained from a slow evaporation of ethanol.

Refinement top

Hydrogen atoms were placed to their ideal positions as riding atoms (C host) using isotropic displacement parameters that were fixed to be 1.2 or 1.5 times larger than those of the attached non-hydrogen 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.
