The title compound, C14H10N2O3, is a π-conjugated mol­ecule containing a benzoxazole aromatic fused heterobicycle. The benzoxazole ring system is planar within 0.01 Å. The mol­ecule assumes an approximately flat conformation, the benzoxazole ring system forming dihedral angles of 6.52 (12) and 7.4 (3)° with the benzene ring and the nitro group, respectively. In the crystal, mol­ecules are connected by very weak C—H⋯O hydrogen inter­actions, forming chains running parallel to the a or c axes. The methyl H atoms are disordered over two sets of sites of equal occupancy rotated by 60°.

Heterocycles are important compounds of synthetic chemistry. Besides their long standing and relevant application as drugs and bioactive compounds, aromatic heterocycles are playing a fundamental role in modern material chemistry as building blocks of conjugated active molecules in some emerging fields of organic electronics and optoelectronics: conducting polymers and organic solar cells (Heeger, 2010), organic field-effect transistors (Centore, Ricciotti et al., 2012), nonlinear optically active and piezoelectric compounds (Dalton, 2002; Carella, Centore, Sirigu et al. (2004); Centore, Concilio et al., 2012). The chemical investigation is mainly directed to the synthesis of new molecules or conjugated polymers containing heterocyclic moieties. However, also the structural investigation of the molecules is relevant, pointing towards the quantitative evaluation of the structural parameters related to the conjugation (Carella, Centore, Fort et al., 2004; Gainsford et al., 2008; Capobianco et al., 2012; Capobianco et al., 2013). Following our interest in the synthesis and characterization of new heterocyclic compounds, including metal containing heterocyclic compounds (Takjoo et al., 2011; Takjoo & Centore, 2013) for applications as advanced materials and bioactive compounds, and in the analysis of crystal structures controlled by the formation of H bonds (Centore, Fusco, Jazbinsek et al., 2013), we report, in the present paper, the structural investigation of the title compound, shown in Scheme 1. 2-(4-methyl)-phenyl-6-nitro-benzoxazole is an organic dye containing the 6-nitrobenzoxazole acceptor group conjugated with a 4-methylphenyl moiety. The 6-nitrobenzoxazole-2-yl moiety has been used in the synthesis of polymers showing quadratic NLO behaviour (Bruno et al., 2002).

The molecular structure of the title compound is shown in Fig. 1. The phenyl and benzoxazole rings are nearly coplanar, the dihedral angle between the mean planes being 6.7 (1)°. That structural feature is in accordance with the expected π conjugation of the compound.

Molecules in the crystal form rows through very weak hydrogen interactions between methyl or aromatic C–H donors and oxygen acceptors of the nitro group (Fig. 2 and Fig. 3; Table 1). The chains, which have graph set symbol C11(14) and C11(7) are generated, respectively, by the b and a glide planes.

Experimental top

The title compound was prepared by reaction of 2-amino-5-nitrophenol (5.00 g, 32.4 mmol) with toluic acid (4.41 g, 32.4 mmol) in polyphosphoric acid (150 g) at 150°C. The dehydration procedure is analogous to that we have already described for the synthesis of similar chromophores (Bruno et al., 2002; Centore et al., 2007). Purification of the title compound was obtained by recrystallization from ethanol. The final yield was 5.69 g (69%). M. p. 437 K. Single crystals were obtained by slow evaporation of an ethanol solution. 1H-NMR (CDCl3) δ 2.47 (s, 3H), 7.38 (d, 2H, J = 7.9 Hz), 7.82 (d, 1H, J= 8.5 Hz), 8.18 (d, 2H, J = 8.3 Hz), 8.33 (d, 1H, J= 8.7 Hz), 8.48 (d, 1H, J= 1.8 Hz).

Refinement top

All H atoms were generated stereochemically. In particular, the methyl group is disordered over two sets of sites of equal occupancy rotated from each other by 60°. All H atoms were refined by a riding model with C—H = 0.93-0.96 Å and with Uiso(H) = 1.2Ueq(C) or 1.5Ueq(C) for methyl hydrogen atoms.

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.
