Crystal and Molecular Structure Analysis in Knoevenagel Condensation Product of Substituted Napthofuran-2-Carbaldehydes

Abstract

In the current study, two novel Knoevenagel condensation products of substituted napthofuran-2-carbaldehydes were designed, synthesized and characterized. In order to study the intermolecular interactions of title compounds, single crystals were grown by slow evaporation solution growth technique at room temperature and crystal structure has been determined by single crystal X-ray diffraction technique. Both the molecules crystallize in the monoclinic centrosymmetric space group P21/c with one molecule in the asymmetric unit. In compound [4] the molecules are connected via bifurcated C-H···O=C and C-H···N=C H-bonds and van der Waals interactions forming a layered structure, whereas in compound [5a] the molecular conformation is stabilized via intramolecular C-H···O H-bond and molecule interacts with other molecule generated via 21-screw via bifurcated C-H···O=C along with C-H···N=C H-bonds, which are interacting with nitro- of other molecule generated via same symmetry operation, forming bifurcated C-H···O-N H-bonds, which helps in formation of molecular sheet-like structure.Further, in order to understand the various types and nature of intermolecular interactions in the supramolecular structure Hirshfeld surface analysis and fingerprint plot analysis was carried out.

1. Introduction

Furan motif posses various pharmacological and biological activities such as antituberculosis [1], anti-inflammatory [2] and antibacterial [3] activities have attracted the attention of synthetic chemists. Also substituted benzofurans and naptho-furans find their applications in different fields such as fluorescent sensors [4], antioxidants [5], brightening agents, and a variety of drugs and agriculture [6]. Recently, Prashanth K. et al., reported the docking analysis of naphtho-furan and benzofuran derivatives and concluded that in most of the interactions involving the nitro group formed hydrogen bond with Asp16 of NarL protein and might act as a potential antitubercular lead molecule [7]. In addition to above, the crystallization phenomenon is very important in the pharmaceutical industry because it directly affects the bioavailability of drugs [8]. Furan-containing polycyclic aromatics are expected to provide relatively high HOMO levels [9] and offer utility in electronic devices such as organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) [10] and organic field-effect transistors (OFETs) [11]. Recently, dinaphtho [2,1-b:1’,2’-d]furan [12] and dinaphtho [1,2-b:2’,1’-d]furan [13] systems were developed and used in single-crystal OFETs and p-type semiconductors respectively. Also, chemistry of multiple bonds plays an important role in the organic synthesis. The Knoevenagel condensation reaction is one of the most important reactions in which C=C bond is formed via condensation reactions of active methylene group with aldehydes or ketones that do not contain α-hydrogen [14].

Based on the above importance and application of naptho-furan derivatives this manuscript reports the synthesis and crystal structures of two novel Knoevenagel condensation products of substituted napthofuran-2-carbaldehydes along with Hirshfeld surfaces and fingerprint plot analysis which has not been reported previously.

Method of crystallization

100 mg of compound [4] and compound [5a] were dissolved in 15 mL of ethanol separately and warmed for 5 min. The solution was filtered through Whatman filter paper and resulting solution was kept at room temperature (22˚C - 23˚C) in conical flask with stopper slightly open. The crystalline phase obtained after evaporation was again recrystallized via slow evaporation method with α, α, α-trifluoro toluene for [4] and toluene for [5a].

3. Results and Discussion

Synthesis of novel Knoevenagel condensation product of naphthofuran-2 carbaldehyde and 8-nitro napthafura-2-carbaldehyde with ethylcyanoacetate is depicted in Scheme 1. Spectroscopic characterization such as FTIR, 1HNMR and mass spectral analysis confirms the assigned structures of the compound [14].

Refinement:

Single-crystal X-ray diffraction data were collected on a Bruker KAPPA APEX II DUO diffractometer using graphite-monochromated Mo-Kα radiation (λ = 0.71073 Å). Data collection was carried out at 100 K by an Oxford Cryostream cooling system using the Bruker Apex II software [15]. Cell refinement and data reduction were performed using the program SAINT [16]. The absorption correction was carried out using the program SADABS [17]. The structure was solved by direct methods using SHELXS-97 and refined by full-matrix least-squares methods based on F2 using SHELXL-2014 [18] [19]. All non-hydrogen atoms were refined anisotropically. The hydrogen atoms were placed in idealized positions

and refined using a riding model with Uiso(H) = 1.2 Ueq [Caromatic] and Uiso (H) = 1.5 Ueq (methyl groups). Geometrical calculations were done using the PLATON [20]. ORTEP and packing diagrams were generated using the Mercury3.5.1 (CCDC) program [21]. The crystallographic and refinement data is tabulated in Table 1 and the list of inter and intra-molecular interactions for [4] and [5a] are collectively tabulated in Table 2.

Crystal Structure Analysis:

The compound [4] crystallizes in the monoclinic centrosymmetric space group P21/c with one molecule in the asymmetric unit. Figure 2 gives the ORTEP view of the molecule.

All the bond angles and bond lengths are in accordance with values reported in the literature. The molecules are connected via bifurcated C5/11-H5/11···O2= C16 and C13-H13···N1=C15 H-bonds and van der Waals interactions forming a layered structure propagating along the b-axis (Figure 3). Parallel sheets are connected via C17B-H17B···N1=C15 H-bonds via an inversion center. There also exists stacking interactions between the sheets which are held via purely van der Waals interactions (Figure 4).

The molecule [5a] crystallizes in the centrosymmetric space group P21/c with one molecule in the asymmetric unit. Figure 5 gives the ORTEP view of the molecule. The molecular conformation is stabilized via intramolecular C2-H2···O4 H-bond. The molecule interacts with other molecule generated via 21-screw bifurcated C5/11-H5/11···O2=C16 along with C13-H13···N1=C15 H-bonds, which are interacting with nitro- of other molecule generated via same symmetry operation, forming bifurcated C3-H3···O4/O5-N2 H-bonds, which helps in formation of molecular sheet-like structure (Figure 6). The parallel sheets related via an inversion center are held via additional C17A-H17A···N1, C17B-H17B···O5 H-bonds. The parallel sheets are molecular stacked, stabilizing the overall packing (Figure 7).

The overall conformation of [4] and [5a] are nearly similar, with slight distortion in C18 methyl group in [5a]. The molecule [5a] is nearly planar with the -nitro group slightly deviated from the mean plane of the molecule.

Hirshfeld Surface analysis:

Crystal of compound [4] is primarily assembled via bifurcated C5/11-H5/ 11···O2 and C13 H13···N1=C15 related to the next molecule via inversion centre. These majorly competent interactions could also be visualised through the Hirshfeld Surface Analysis, a module of Crystal Explorer (Version 17.5.), which

shows the red region as a plausible region for interactions [22] [23]. Figure 8(a) shows the red region on the Hirshfeld surface of [4] forming bifurcated C-H···O and C-H···N and thereby stabilizing the sheet, which is connected to other parallel sheets via molecular stacking and C17-H17B···N1=C15 (Figure 8(b)).

Figure 9. Fingerprint plot for compound [4] showing contribution of N···H/H···N, O···H/H···O, C···H/H···C, C···C, C···N/N···C, H···H contacts.

The individual contribution of different interactions is well elucidated via a module of Crystal Explorer named Fingerprint plot (Figure 9). The contribution of various contacts such as N···H/H···N (10.4%), O···H/H···O (12.5%), C···H/H···C (18.1%), C···C (9.0%), C···N/N···C(1.9%), H···H (41.1%) involved in the packing signifies the importance of individual contacts in the overall stabilization of the crystal lattice.

Compound [5a] is stabilized primarily via short H-bonds involving C-H···O and C-H···N interactions which are well represented through the Hirshfeld surface analysis. The red region depicts the plausible interactions for the above-mentioned compound. Figure 10(a) clearly depicts that the major interactions responsible for stability of the compound are C-H···O and C-H···N, which are also mentioned above in the packing analysis. The surface analysis also corroborates with the role of bifurcated C-H···O and short C-H···N=C hydrogen bonds in the stabilization of this motif (Figure 10(b)).

The qualitative picture of contribution of contacts involved in the assembly of crystal lattice of compound [5a] is also given by Fingerprint Plot. The qualitative overview of interactions involved in crystal packing of compound [5a] is as follows N···H/H···N (10.0%), O···H/H···O (25.5%), C···H/H···C(15.9%), C···C(8.2%), C···N/N···C(2.7%) and H···H(27.5%) (Figure 11).

Cambridge Structural Database study:

A database search using Cambridge Structural Database [24] was carried out, to recognize the importance of structural study in molecules consisting of the “naptho-furan” skeleton. A total of 11 hits were found including only one structural report (LERXEN) with substitution of -Br [25] at C10 and a few structural reports (OCELIT, OCEHOV, TAGZUZ, IYUPID, IDUNIF, DAVQUO) involving molecules substituted at C12 comprising of the carbonyl group [26] [27] [28] [29]. LERXEN, having a-Br at C10, forms C-H···Br and halogen contacts, instead of C-H···O as was observed in case of the -Nitro group in [5a]. Similarly, in case of DAVQUO, the C12 position is substituted with -COOEt which has higher propensity of forming C-H···O and van der Waals contacts than that observed in [4], which has a -CH2C(CN)(COOEt) group. The limited structural studies till

date in “naptho-furan” containing scaffolds illustrates that these molecules are yet to be explored in terms of their structural and molecular diversity. This includes a systematic examination of the molecular conformation and the plethora of conventional and non-conventional non-covalent interactions which results in the formation of molecular crystals.

Comparison in packing of compound [4] and [5a]:

Compound [4] stabilized via C-H···O and C-H···N, also shows relatively more contribution from H···H contacts (Figure 12) in comparison to compound [5a], due to the introduction of -NO2 group at C10. The nitro substitution in compound [5a] leads to more contribution from O···H interactions which can be visualised through Figure 12.

4. Conclusion

The wide scope of furan and naptho-furan consisting molecules in electronic devices, pharmacological and biological activities, has intrigued researchers to explore such systems further, in order to gain invaluable structural insights. The structural investigation gives us the platform for unraveling the role of various intermolecular interactions such as C-H···O, C-H···N, van der Waals contacts, etc. that are involved in the overall formation of the crystal. In summary we have synthesized two novel Knoevenagel condensation products of substituted napthofuran-2-carbaldehydes. Spectroscopic characterization such as FTIR, 1H NMR and mass spectral analysis confirms the assigned structures of the compound. Single crystal X-ray diffraction analysis reveals that both the molecules crystallize in the monoclinic centrosymmetric space group P21/c with one molecule in the asymmetric unit. The crystal surface analysis carried out by Hirshfeld surface studies and fingerprint plot analysis, which facilitates in understanding the type and nature of intermolecular interactions and as well as packing in the solid-state.
