Comment top

indanee derivatives have attracted some attention in a search of novel functional compounds (Hafidh et al. 2002; Hafidh & Zantour, 2003). As our contribution to this field, we present here the title compound, (I).

In (I) (Fig. 1), all bond lengths and angles are normal and correspond to those observed in related compound (Mereiter et al., 2000). The mean plane of the bicycle system (C7/C8/C10/C11/C13-C17) and attached aromatic ring (C1-C6) form a dihedral angle of 63.12 (7)°.

In the crystal structure, weak intermolecular N—H···N hydrogen bonds (Table 1) link adjacent molecules into ribbons extended in direction [010].

Experimental top

The malononitrile (1.32 g,20 mmol) was added into the mixture of 4-bromobenzaldehyde (1.85 g,10 mmol) and cyclopentanone (0.84 g,10 mmol) in 1-butyl-3-methylimidazol-3-ium tetrafluoroborate (20 ml), and has stirred for three hours at 388 K. The solution was allowed to stand for 2 weeks, whereupon the crystals suitable for the X-ray study was obtained. Yield: 1.047 g, 31%. Anal. for C17H12BrN3: Calc. C, 60.37; H, 3.58; N, 12.42; Found: C, 60.54; H, 3.71; N, 12.54%. The No. of CCDC: 750008.

Refinement top

C-bound H atoms were placed in geometrically idealized positions (C—H 0.93-0.97 Å) and treated as riding on their parent atoms , with Uiso(H)=1.2Ueq(C). Amino H atoms were located on a difference map and refined isotropically with the bond restraint of N—H = 0.84 (3) Å.

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.
