A Claisen–Schmidt condensation reaction was used: a solution of ethanol (20 ml) and 10% aqueous sodium hydroxide (5 ml) solution were taken in a conical flask. A previously prepared portion of 3,4,5-trimethoxy benzaldehyde (0.001 mol) and 1-(4-aminophenyl)ethanone (0.001 mol) dissolved in ethanol (25 ml) was added to the conical flask with stirring and the temperature of the solution was maintained between 293 and 298 K. A precipitate was obtained after stirring the solution for about five minutes. The remaining portion of the aldehyde and ketone mixture was added and the solution was stirred for about 60 minutes. The solid product was filtered and washed with excess water to remove the alkali and dried. Yellow blocks of (I) + (II) were grown by slow evaporation of an acetone solution. The 3,4,5-trimethoxybenzaldehyde starting material was contaminated with some 3-bromo-4,5-dimethoxybenzaldehyde, resulting also in the formation of (II). The presence of the Br atom in the starting material as well as the product was confirmed by performing the halogen test.
Due to negligible amonalous scattering, Friedel pairs were merged before refinement.
After initial modelling as the expected compound (I), high residuals (wR2 > 0.15) and a significant difference peak in the vicinity of O4 and C18 remained. The separation of the peak and C2 suggested the presence of a C—Br bond (Ravindra et al., 2007). Refinement as a co-crystal of (I) + (II) (occupancies of the –O4—C18 and –Br1 groups/atoms attached to C2 refined with their sum constrained to unity) converged to a physically plausible answer with lower residuals.
The hydrogen atoms were placed in calculated positions (N—H = 0.86 Å, C—H = 0.95–0.99 Å) and refined as riding with Uiso(H) = 1.2Ueq(C, N) or 1.5Ueq(methyl C). The methyl groups were allowed to rotate but not to tip to best fit the electron density.
As part of our on-going studies of chalcone derivatives as possible non-linear optical materials (Uchida et al., 1998; Harrison et al., 2007), we now report the synthesis and structure of the non-centrosymmetric title co-crystal, (I) + (II), (Fig. 1). All the atoms are superimposed in the crystal, except for O4/C18/H18A/H18B/H18C in (I) and Br1 in (II). A similar co-crystal was recently described (Ravindra et al., 2007).
The bond lengths and angles for (I) + (II) are normal (Allen et al., 1995). The C16 and C18 atoms are almost co-planar with the C1–C6 benzene ring, whereas C17 is significantly displaced, by 1.026 (6) Å. The dihedral angle between two benzene rings (C1–C6 and C10–C15) is 18.20 (13)°. The central enone fragment (C7/C8/C9/O1) makes dihedral angles of 7.8 (3)° and 11.6 (3)° with C1–C6 and C10–C15, respectively.
The non-centrosymmetric packing for (I) + (II) is consolidated by a weak N—H···O hydrogen bond (Table 1), resulting in C(8) chains propagating in [101].

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. |

As part of our on-going studies of chalcone derivatives as possible non-linear optical materials (Uchida et al., 1998; Harrison et al., 2007), we now report the synthesis and structure of the non-centrosymmetric title co-crystal, (I) + (II), (Fig. 1). All the atoms are superimposed in the crystal, except for O4/C18/H18A/H18B/H18C in (I) and Br1 in (II). A similar co-crystal was recently described (Ravindra et al., 2007).
The bond lengths and angles for (I) + (II) are normal (Allen et al., 1995). The C16 and C18 atoms are almost co-planar with the C1–C6 benzene ring, whereas C17 is significantly displaced, by 1.026 (6) Å. The dihedral angle between two benzene rings (C1–C6 and C10–C15) is 18.20 (13)°. The central enone fragment (C7/C8/C9/O1) makes dihedral angles of 7.8 (3)° and 11.6 (3)° with C1–C6 and C10–C15, respectively.
The non-centrosymmetric packing for (I) + (II) is consolidated by a weak N—H···O hydrogen bond (Table 1), resulting in C(8) chains propagating in [101].
