In the title compound, C16H21N3O4, the 1,4-di­hydro­pyridine ring adopts a flattened boat conformation, with the imidazole substituent in an axial orientation [dihedral angle between ring planes = 82.9 (6)°]. In the crystal structure, pairs of N—H⋯O and N—H⋯N hydrogen bonds with graph-set notation R22(14) connect the mol­ecules into chains running along the c-axis direction.

Structure description

Hantzsch 1,4-di­hydro­pyridines (1,4-DHPs) have shown broad biological activities which include calcium channel blocker (Schaller et al., 2018[Schaller, D., Gündüz, M. G., Zhang, F. X., Zamponi, G. W. & Wolber, G. (2018). Eur. J. Med. Chem. 155, 1-12.]), anti­mycobacterial (Lentz et al., 2016[Lentz, F., Hemmer, M., Reiling, N. & Hilgeroth, A. (2016). Bioorg. Med. Chem. Lett. 26, 5896-5898.]), anti­convulsant (Prasanthi et al., 2014[Prasanthi, G., Prasad, K. V. S. R. G. & Bharathi, K. (2014). Eur. J. Med. Chem. 73, 97-104.]) and anti-tubercular (Khoshneviszadeh et al., 2009[Khoshneviszadeh, M., Edraki, N., Javidnia, K., Alborzi, A., Pourabbas, B., Mardaneh, J. & Miri, R. (2009). Bioorg. Med. Chem. 17, 1579-1586.]) activities. According to our recent report, they show anti-cancer activities in HCT116 human colon cancer cell lines (Ahn et al., 2018[Ahn, S., Lee, Y., Park, J., Lee, J., Shin, Y., Lee, Y., Koh, D. & Lim, Y. (2018). Med. Chem. 14, 851-862.]). We report herein the synthesis and crystal structure of the title compound (Fig. 1[link]).

In the title compound, the 1,4-di­hydro­pyridine (C1–C5/N1) ring is twisted slightly from planarity, with a maximum deviation of 0.178 (1) Å at C3 (r.m.s. deviation = 0.113 Å). The dihedral angle formed between the plane of the 1,4-di­hydro­pyridine (C1–C5/N1) and imidazole (C10–C12/N2–N3) rings is 82.9 (6)°. One of the carbonyl groups (C13=O3) lies on the same side as the methyl group at C16 with the other carbonyl group (C7=O1) on the opposite side. In the crystal, pairs of N—H⋯O and N—H⋯N hydrogen bonds with graph-set notation R22(14) connect the mol­ecules into chains running along the c-axis direction (Table 1[link], Fig. 2[link]).

Synthesis and crystallization

Methyl aceto­acetate (20 mmol) and 1H-imidazole-2-carbaldehyde (10 mmol) were dissolved in 30 ml of ethanol to give a clear solution. To the mixture, ammonium acetate (10 mmol) was added and the reaction mixture was heated at 365 K for 5 h. After completion of the reaction (monitored by TLC), the mixture was cooled to room temperature to produce a solid product. This solid was recrystallized from ethanol solution to obtain single-crystal of the title compound in 61% yield.

Special details top

Geometry. All esds (except the esd in the dihedral angle between two l.s. planes) are estimated using the full covariance matrix. The cell esds are taken into account individually in the estimation of esds in distances, angles and torsion angles; correlations between esds in cell parameters are only used when they are defined by crystal symmetry. An approximate (isotropic) treatment of cell esds is used for estimating esds involving l.s. planes.
