In the title compound, C18H27Cl2NO, the cyclohexene ring has an with the C atom at the 9a position as the flap. The cycloheptane ring, to which it is fused, has a boat conformation. The dihedral angle between their mean planes is 60.7 (2)°. The 1,1-dichloro-cyclopropane ring is inclined to these two ring mean planes by 88.5 (3) and 28.3 (3)°, respectively. In the crystal, molecules are linked by N—H⋯O hydrogen bonds, forming 61 helices along the c-axis direction. The of the molecule in the crystal could be fully confirmed from effects [Flack parameter = 0.020 (15)].

Structure description
The bicyclic sesquiterpene β-himachalene is the main constituent of the essential oil of the Atlas cedar (Cedrus Atlantica) (El Haib et al., 2010; Loubidi et al., 2014). The reactivity of these sesquiterpenes and their derivatives has been studied extensively by our team (El Jamili et al., 2002; El Haib et al., 2011; Benharref et al., 2015, 2016) in order to prepare new products with biological properties. Indeed, these compounds have been tested, using the food-poisoning technique, for their potential antifungal activity against the phytopathogen Botrytis cinerea (Daoubi et al., 2004). Herein, we report on the synthesis and of the title modified β-himachalene compound.
The structure of the title compound, Fig. 1, is built up from a cycloheptane ring (C1/C3–C8), which is fused to a cyclohexene ring (C1/C8–C12), and a cyclopropane ring (C1–C3). The six-membered ring has an with atom C1 (position 9a) as the flap [puckering parameters are: QT = 0.456 (4) Å, θ = 125.3 (6)° and φ = 173.6 (7)°], whereas the seven-membered ring displays a boat conformation [puckering parameters are: QT = 1.1390 (53) Å, θ = 89.19 (30)°, φ2 = 311.1 (3)°, φ3 = 24 (2)°]. The dihedral angle between their mean planes is 60.7 (2)°. The cyclopropane ring is normal to the mean plane of the cyclohexene ring, making a dihedral angle of 88.5 (3)°.
In the crystal, molecules are linked by N—H⋯O hydrogen bonds, forming helices running along the c-axis direction (Fig. 2 and Table 1).
Synthesis and crystallization
3 g (10 mmol) of 2,2-dichloro-9,10-epoxy-3,7,7,10- tetramethyl-tricyclo[6.4.0.01,3]dodecane (Sbai et al., 2002) was dissolved in 30 ml of CH3CN and stirred at 273 K under argon. BF3OEt (3% mmol) was added and the reaction mixture was stirred and monitored by TLC. After the completion of reaction, the solvent was removed and the residue obtained was chromatographed on silica, eluting with hexane–ethylacetate (90:10), which allowed the isolation of the title compound (yield 70%). It was recrystallized from ethyl acetate solution and yielded colourless prismatic crystals on slow evaporation of the solvent.
Refinement
Crystal data, data collection and structure . Owing to the presence of the Cl atoms, the could be fully confirmed from effects [Flack parameter = 0.020 (15)].

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. |
