Structure description

Chalcone derivatives exhibit various biological activities (Tajuddeen et al., 2018[Tajuddeen, N., Isah, M. B., Suleiman, M. A., van Heerden, F. R. & Ibrahim, M. A. (2018). Int. J. Antimicrob. Agents, 51, 311-318.]) and those that crystallize in non-centrosymmetric space groups are candidates for non-linear optical materials (Shettigar et al., 2006[Shettigar, S., Chandrasekharan, K., Umesh, G., Sarojini, B. K. & Narayana, B. (2006). Polymer, 47, 3565-3567.]). As part of our studies in this area, we now describe the synthesis and structure of the title compound, C19H18O3, (I), (Fig. 1[link]).

The geometrical data for (I) are similar to those in related structures (Biruntha et al., 2018[Biruntha, K., Reuben Jonathan, D., Mohamooda Sumaya, U., Dravida Thendral, E. R. A. & Usha, G. (2018). IUCrData, 3, x180829.]; Baydere et al., 2019[Baydere, C., Taşçı, M., Dege, N., Arslan, M., Atalay, Y. & Golenya, I. A. (2019). Acta Cryst. E75, 746-750.]). The C5–C10 cyclo­hexa­none ring adopts a distorted half-chair conformation with C9 and C10 deviating from C5–C8 (r.m.s. deviation = 0.086 Å) by −0.381 (3) and 0.285 (4) Å, respectively. The dihedral angle between the C1–C6 and C12–C17 aromatic rings is 52.20 (15)° and the C atoms of both meth­oxy groups lie close to the C12–C17 plane [deviations = 0.057 (4) for C18 and 0.148 (6) Å for C19].

In the crystal, weak C2—H2⋯O3 hydrogen bonds link the mol­ecules into C(12) zigzag chains propagating in the [001] direction with adjacent mol­ecules related by a 21 screw axis (Table 1[link], Fig. 2[link]). The chains pack without any identifiable directional inter­actions between them beyond van der Waals contacts.

Synthesis and crystallization

The title compound was prepared by a Claisen–Schmidt condensation (Dong et al., 2008[Dong, F., Jian, C., Zhenghao, F., Kai, G. & Zuliang, L. (2008). Catal. Commun. 9, 1924-1927.]): equimolar qu­anti­ties of 3,4-dimeth­oxy benzaldehyde (2.51 g, 0.015 mol) and α-tetra­lone (2.0 ml, 0.015 mol) were dissolved in ethanol in a 250 ml conical flask and stirred for 15 min. Freshly prepared 10% NaOH solution was added to the mixture and stirred again for 1 h. This mixture was kept at room temperature for 24 h and then poured into ice-cold water. A yellow precipitate formed, which was washed with distilled water to remove any traces of NaOH. The filtered, dried crude product was recrystallized three times from acetone solution. After four days, yellow blocks of (I) were harvested (yield 78%; m.p. 110°C).

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.

Refinement. Hydrogen atoms were fixed geometrically and treated as riding atoms, with C—H = 0.93–0.97 Å and Uiso(H)= 1.2Ueq(C) or 1.5Ueq(C-methyl).
