The geometrical parameters governing the potential for the photocyclization reaction occurring in crystals of 2,3,4,5,6-penta­methyl­benzophenone, C18H20O, (I), 1,3-diphenyl­butan-1-one, C16H16O, (II), and 2,4,6-triisopropyl-4'-methoxy­benzo­phenone, C23H30O2, (IV), have been evaluated. Compound (IV) undergoes photocyclization but (I) and (II) do not, despite the fact that their geometrical parameters appear equally favourable for reaction. The structure of the partially reacted crystal of the photoactive compound, i.e. 2,4,6-triisopropyl-4'-methoxy­benzophenone-3,5-diisopropyl-7-(4-methoxy­phen­yl)-8,8-dimethyl­bicyclo­[4.2.0]octa-1,3,5-trien-7-ol (9/1), 0.90C23H30O2·0.10C23H30O2, (III), was also determined, providing structural evidence for the reactivity of the compound. It has been found that the carbonyl group of the photoactive compound reacts with one of the two o-isopropyl groups. The study has shown that the intra­molecular geo­metrical parameters are not the only factors influencing the reactivity of compounds in crystals.

Comment top

Compounds containing a carbonyl group and an Hγ atom in their structure can potentially undergo a photocyclization reaction. ortho-Alkylphenyl ketones are an example of such compounds. A mechanism of the above-mentioned reaction is presented in the scheme below.

As can be seen, the reaction leads to formation of a cyclobutane ring from a biradical formed earlier under the influence of UV–vis radiation. However, it was also proposed that the mechanism of formation of benzocyclobutenols can have more complicated character, namely the reaction can proceed not only via a biradical directly but, additionally, via an enol form (Ito et al., 2009). Nevertheless, it was stated that in the case of large substituents and steric crowding, formation of enols in a crystalline state can be neglected (Ito et al., 2009; Moorthy et al., 2004). ortho-Alkylphenyl ketones can also undergo a δ-abstraction reaction (Ito et al., 2009) as follows:

Some 2,4,6-triisopropylbenzophenones are photoactive in a crystalline state and undergo the photocyclization reaction according to Scheme 1 (Fukushima et al., 1998; Ito et al., 2009; Ito, Kano et al., 1998). However, some 2,4,6-triisopropylbenzophenones are photoinert (Fukushima et al., 1998; Ito, Kano et al., 1998; Ito, Yasui et al., 1998). Moreover, 2,4,6-trimethylbenzophenone is photoinert in a crystalline state (Ito et al., 2009) but mesitaldehyde in a solid inclusion compound is photoactive (Moorthy et al., 2001).

In this paper, we present and discuss the structures of the following compounds: 2,3,4,5,6-pentamethylbenzophenone, (I), 1,3-diphenylbutan-1-one, (II), and 2,4,6-triisopropyl-4'-methoxybenzophenone–3,5-diisopropyl-7-(4-methoxyphenyl)-8,8- dimethylbicyclo[4.2.0]octa-1,3,5-trien-7-ol, (III), which is the product of the photocyclization of 2,4,6-triisopropyl-4'-methoxybenzophenone, (IV) (see the first reaction scheme above). The intramolecular photocyclization is one of the reactions monitored by us recently (Turowska-Tyrk, Bąkowicz et al., 2006; Turowska-Tyrk, Bąkowicz et al., 2007; Turowska-Tyrk, Łabęcka et al., 2007; Turowska-Tyrk, Trzop et al., 2006).

There exist geometrical parameters describing conditions that must be fulfilled for a photocyclization reaction to proceed in crystals (Natarajan et al., 2005; Xia et al., 2005). They are as follows (see the scheme below): the (C)O···Hγ distance, d, the (O)C···Cγ distance, D, the deviation of Hγ from the mean plane of the carbonyl group, ω, the CO···Hγ angle, Δ, and the Cγ—Hγ···O angle, Θ. The ideal and average literature values of these parameters for photoactive compounds are given in Table 1. However, it should be pointed out that good values of these parameters are not the only necessary condition for photocyclization to proceed in crystals (Bąkowicz & Turowska-Tyrk, 2009; Ito, Yasui et al., 1998; Moorthy et al., 2006; Zouev et al., 2006).

One of the reasons for photochemical inactivity of compounds can be the presence of intermolecular ππ interactions. They hinder shifts of atoms and in this manner a whole reaction (Fukushima et al., 1998; Ito et al., 2009). Too small a reaction cavity can be another reason (Fukushima et al., 1998; Ito, Kano et al., 1998; Ito, Yasui et al., 1998; Moorthy et al., 2006; Zouev et al., 2006). In these cases, despite the formation of biradicals, compounds do not cyclize but return to substrates (Ito, Yasui et al., 1998). In order to make molecular and atomic movements easier, reactions were sometimes conducted at elevated temperatures (Fukushima et al., 1998; Ito, Yasui et al., 1998).

Figs. 1 and 2 present the structures of (I) and (II), respectively. The bond lengths in the molecules of both compounds are typical. The dihedral angles between the planes of the two benzene rings are 82.98 (5) and 62.36 (10)° for (I) and (II), respectively. The above-mentioned geometrical parameters influencing the photochemical reaction of the title compounds are given in Table 1. In the case of (I) and (II), only the values for the Hγ atom closer to the carbonyl group are given, but for (IV), the values for both o-isopropyl groups are presented. As can be seen, not all of the geometrical parameters for (I), (II) and (IV) are appropriate for the photocyclization reaction in crystals. For (I), the value of the ω parameter is greater (by 10.5°) than the largest literature value for compounds undergoing the Yang photocyclization (Turowska-Tyrk, Bąkowicz et al., 2007). In the case of (II), D is slightly worse (by 0.02 Å) than the limit known in the literature, but ω is slightly better (by 3.8°). For the first o-isopropyl group of (IV), the d and ω parameters are larger and exceed the literature values (by 0.13 Å and 15.6°, respectively). For the second o-isopropyl group, d, ω and Θ are worse (by 0.05 Å, 10.9° and 0.7°, respectively).

In the case of (I)–(III), there are no ππ interactions between neighbouring naphthalene rings. The lack of ππ stacking can increase the reactivity of compounds (Fukushima et al., 1998; Ito et al., 2009).

However, despite of the above considerations, (I) and (II) are photoinert and (IV) photoactive. Irradiation of crystals of (I) and (II) for periods of 7 and 6 h, respectively, did not cause the photocyclization reaction. We did not observe any changes in the cell constants over the irradiation time and the structures determined after the irradiation revealed only reactant molecules.

In order to make the photoreaction easier, (I) (m.p. 410–411 K) and (II) (m.p. 343–345 K) were irradiated at elevated temperatures: at 373 K for 4 h and at 313 K for 5 h, respectively. Nevertheless, it did not help to induce the photoreaction.

The structure of (IV) before irradiation, i.e. containing only reactant molecules, has been reported previously (Fukushima et al., 1998). Nevertheless, we redetermined it in order to have confidence that we have the proper structure for further experiments. The molecular geometries for both structures were very similar. The information that (IV) undergoes the photocyclization reaction according to Scheme 1 was also given (Fukushima et al., 1998; Ito & Matsura, 1988), but structural evidence, i.e. a structure of a crystal containing product molecules, was not supplied. The photoreaction of (IV) does not proceed in a single-crystal-to-single-crystal manner. Crystals under prolonged influence of UV–vis radiation lose their diffracting properties. Nevertheless, we were able to determine the crystal structure containing 89.6 (7)% of reactant and 10.4 (7)% of product molecules. The structure is presented in Fig. 3. It is very interesting that the carbonyl group reacts with one of two o-isopropyl groups, at least at the beginning of the photoreaction. Unfortunately, because the crystal loses its diffracting properties, it is not possible to see teh behaviour of the compound during the rest of the photoreaction.

In many cases, intramolecular parameters describing geometrical demands for a chemical reaction work very well. In the scientific literature many such examples are known (for instance, Chen et al., 2005; Ihmels & Scheffer, 1999; Leibovitch et al., 1998; Natarajan et al., 2005; Turowska-Tyrk, Bąkowicz et al., 2007; Turowska-Tyrk, Łabęcka et al., 2007; Turowska-Tyrk & Trzop, 2003; Vishnumurthy et al., 2002; Xia et al., 2005). However, there are also situations where predictions about reactivity on the basis of such parameters fail (for instance, Fukushima et al., 1998; Ito, Kano et al., 1998;). Such a situation concerns also the title compounds.

Experimental top

Compounds (I) and (II) were purchased from Alfa Aesar and compound (IV) from Sigma-Aldrich. Compounds (I) and (II) were recrystallized from acetone and ethanol, respectively; (IV) was not recrystallized.

Refinement top

H atoms of all –CH3 groups of (I) and –C23H3 of (III) were located in difference Fourier maps and refined as part of rigid rotating groups. The remaining H atoms of (I) and (III) and all H atoms of (II) were positioned geometrically and treated as riding. C—H distances were fixed at 0.93–0.98 Å and Uiso(H) values at 1.5Ueq(C) for methyl H atoms or 1.2Ueq(C) for other H atoms.

The crystal of (IV) was irradiated for 4 h using a 100 W Hg lamp equipped with a water filter. For (III), the first atoms of the minor component (product) were found in a difference Fourier map and the remaining atoms were located geometrically. The difference peaks were seen near one o-isopropyl group and not near the other. The major component (reactant) was refined anisotropically and the minor component isotropically. H atoms in groups –OH and –OCH3 of the minor component were omitted. The percentage of product molecules was determined by refinement of the site occupation factor. The R1 value improved from 0.075 to 0.066 after inclusion of the minor component. Owing to a reactant–product disorder, which is always a feature of partly reacted crystals, the following weak restraints from SHELXL97 (Sheldrick, 2008) were applied for the minor component: DFIX, DANG, FLAT and SIMU. The DFIX and DANG commands restrained bond lengths and valence angles to target values. The target values were taken from the structures of the pure reactant (IV) and the pure photoproduct of a similar compound. FLAT restrained some atoms to be coplanar. SIMU restrained the displacement parameters of atoms of the photoproduct.

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.

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.

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.
