The title compound, C21H16O2, was isolated from the reaction of 1-(2-meth­oxy­eth­oxy)-1-vinyl­cyclo­propane, 4-ethynylbiphenyl, and CO in a [5 + 1 + 2 + 1] cyclo­addition reaction catalysed by [Rh(CO)2Cl]2. The crystals precipitated directly from the crude reaction mixture. A hydrogen-bonding framework between the hy­droxy and carbonyl groups of a symmetry-related neighbour connects the mol­ecules into chains running parallel to the crystallographic c axis. A minor non-merohedral twin component was included in the refinement.

Structure description

The mol­ecular structure of the title compound is shown in Fig. 1[link]. The carbonyl group of the five-membered ring lies out of the indanone ring plane (defined by C1–C9), with a distance of 0.486 (5) Å between O2 and the least-squares plane, while the hydroxyl oxygen essentially lies in the plane [0.078 (5) Å between O1 and the least-squares plane]. The dihedral angle between the indanone ring plane and the plane of the aromatic ring directly bonded to C9 (C10–C15) is 49.6 (1)°, and that within the biphenyl group is smaller at 36.2 (2)°.

In the crystal, hydrogen bonds are observed between the OH donor and the carbonyl acceptor of a symmetry-related mol­ecule, creating chains (Figs. 2[link] and 3[link]; Table 1[link]). The metrics for this inter­molecular bond are similar to those in the structurally related compound 6-hy­droxy-7-phenyl-1-indanone (refcode YANPIN in the CSD, Groom et al., 2016[Groom, C. R., Bruno, I. J., Lightfoot, M. P. & Ward, S. C. (2016). Acta Cryst. B72, 171-179.]; Wender et al., 2005[Wender, P. A., Gamber, G. G., Hubbard, R. D., Pham, S. M. & Zhang, L. (2005). J. Am. Chem. Soc. 127, 2836-2837.]), which crystallizes in the monoclinic space group P21/c with unit-cell dimensions a = 12.061 (1), b = 15.232 (1), c = 12.918 Å and β = 102.32°, with two mol­ecules in the asymmetric unit. When compared to the title compound, the carbonyl is more in plane with the indanone ring framework (0.230 and 0.161 Å deviations from the plane for the carbonyl O atoms of the two independent mol­ecules), the hydroxyl O atoms are again coplanar with the indanone (0.096 and 0.004 Å deviations), and the dihedral angle between the indanone and phenyl planes is larger (61.4 and 60.8°; Wender et al., 2005[Wender, P. A., Gamber, G. G., Hubbard, R. D., Pham, S. M. & Zhang, L. (2005). J. Am. Chem. Soc. 127, 2836-2837.]). The hydrogen-bonding framework is similar in both crystal structures.

Synthesis and crystallization

The title compound was prepared through a modification of the published procedure (Wender et al., 2005[Wender, P. A., Gamber, G. G., Hubbard, R. D., Pham, S. M. & Zhang, L. (2005). J. Am. Chem. Soc. 127, 2836-2837.]). An amount of 1-(2-meth­oxy­eth­oxy)-1-vinyl­cyclo­propane (17.1 mg, 0.1203 mmol) was dissolved in toluene-d8 (300 µL). The catalyst [Rh(CO)2Cl]2 (0.6 mg, 0.0015 mmol) was added, followed by 4-ethynylbiphenyl (10.7 mg, 0.0600 mmol) in toluene-d8 (300 µL). The solution was placed in an NMR tube and capped with a septum. The tube was removed from the glovebox and, via a needle, the headspace was purged with CO gas. The tube was heated at 60°C for 40 h in an oil bath. As the reaction proceeded, the product precipitated from solution as tiny pale yellow–brown crystals. The NMR spectroscopic data were in agreement with those previously reported.

Refinement

Crystal data, data collection, and structure refinement details are summarized in Table 2[link]. One reflection ([\overline8] 1 3) showed poor agreement in the final refinement and was omitted in the last cycles. The routine TwinRotMax implemented in PLATON (Spek, 2009[Spek, A. L. (2009). Acta Cryst. D65, 148-155.]) indicated that there was a minor twin component present in the crystal. The twin law, [[\overline{1}] 0 0, 0 [\overline{1}] 0, 0.668 0 1], was added to the refinement and the batch scale factor refined to 0.0034 (7). Inclusion of the twin law did improve the statistics of the refinement slightly.

Special details top

Refinement. Refined as a 2-component twin. The non-hydrogen atoms were refined anisotropically. Hydrogen atoms bonded to carbon were included at geometrically idealized positions and were not refined. The isotropic thermal parameters of the hydrogen atoms were fixed at 1.2Ueq of the parent carbon atom and 1.5Ueq for the hydrogen bonded to oxygen. A bond length restraint was applied to the hydroxyl group, O—H = 0.85 (2) Å, to keep its geometry reasonable.
