The 34H22O2·2C3H7NO, at 173 K has monoclinic (P21/n) symmetry. Molecules are located on crystallographic centers of symmetry and have approximate non-crystallographic mmm symmetry, indicating that in solution the chemical and spectroscopic behavior would be that of a D2h molecule. The compound has applications in gas-separation membranes fabricated from polymers of intrinsic microporosity (PIM). The compound is the product of reduction of the corresponding quinone by Na2S2O4 in DMF/NaHCO3.

Structure description
Pentiptycenes are a member of the iptycene family that possess a rigid, bulky, aromatic, π-electron-rich three-dimensional structure. In addition to various applications of pentiptycene in fluorescence and chemical sensing (Yang and Swager, 1998) and a light-driven molecular brake (Sun et al., 2010), pentiptycene-6,13-diol is currently used as a principal reactant for preparing polymers. Gong & Zhang (2011) synthesized poly(arylene ether sulfone)s to fabricate highly conductive polymer electrolyte membranes for high temperature and low humidity conditions. Luo et al. (2015, 2016) have reported pentiptycene-based diamines for the preparation of polyimides with controlled molecular cavities appropriate for gas separation with PIM membranes.
In the title compound, C34H22O2·2C3H7NO, an inversion center (−x, −y, −z) is present between atoms C1, C2 and C3 of the central hydroquinone ring, which yields a C22H22N2O and a solvent molecule, C2H3O2, in the generating a rigid tweezer-like molecule (Fig. 1). The dihedral angle between the terminal benzene rings in each of the two symmetry-related sets is 64.9 (9)°. The three six-membered carbon rings fused between the benzene rings and the central hydroquinone ring for both symmetry sets adopt a boat conformation (puckering parameters Q, θ, and φ = 0.7976 (15) Å, 90.3 (11)°, 299.85 (11)° for C2/C3/C4/C5/C10/C11; 0.8113 (15) Å, 90.36 (11)°, 120.38° for C2/C3/C4/C17/C12/C11; and 0.8238 (15) Å, 89.91 (10), 0.20 (11) for C4/C5/C10C11/C12/C17, respectively. Bond lengths are within normal ranges.
In the crystal, two DMF molecules solvate the compound with O—H⋯O hydrogen bonds and weak C—H⋯O intermolecular interactions (Table 1). On each half of the title compound these interactions involve the oxygen atom from DMF interacting with the OH group and a CH unit from a boat-formed six-membered carbon ring of the compound (Fig. 2). In the lattice, the central symmetry-related hydroquinone rings are aligned along the a axis, as two stack orientations, with an angle of 56 (1)° between them (Fig 3).

Some derivatives of this compound for which X-ray structures have previously been reported include bis(trimethylsilylethynyl)pentiptycene (Yang & Swager, 1998). A long-chain ether derivative was reported (Yang et al., 2000a), as well as an arylsulfonyl diamide derivative of the title compound (Yang et al., 2000b), while a 4′-carboxybenzyl ether derivative was described by Crane et al. (2013).
Synthesis and crystallization
The title pentiptycene-6,13-diol was prepared using a modified version of the Yang et al. (2000a) method (Fig. 4). For 2.5 g (5.5 mmol) of pentiptycene quinone (Cao et al. 2009), 50 ml of DMF was used as the solvent, with 3.25 g (39 mmol) NaHCO3 and 3.25 g (19 mmol) Na2S2O4. The reaction was carried out at 100°C under N2. The total reaction time was adjusted to 16 h, with Na2S2O4 being added in four portions at 4 h intervals. The crude product, precipitated by the addition of water to the cooled solution, was filtered off, washed with water, and vacuum desiccated, yielding a straw-colored powder (2.45 g, 97%), which was recrystallized from DMF.

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. |
