- Abstract
Crystal structures are reported of (E) -2-(4-hydroxybenzylidene)-2,3-dihydro-1Hinden-1-one, 1, (E)-2-(4-dimethylaminobenzylidene)-2,3-dihydro-1H-inden-1-one, 2, (E)-2-(4-cyanobenzylidene)-2,3-dihydro-1H-inden-1-one, 3, and monoclinic-(E)-2-(3-nitrobenzylidene)-2,3-dihydro-1H-inden-1-one, monoclinic-4, all from data collected at 100 K and (E)-2-(4-hydroxy-3,5-dimethylbenzylidene)-2,3-dihydro-1H-indan-1-one, 6, from data collected at 299 K. An earlier triclinic form of 4 has been reported. Also reported herein are the Hirshfeld suface calculations for these five compounds, as well as that of 2-(4-methoxybenzylidene)-2,3-dihydro-1H-inden-1-one, 5,whose crystal structure has been previously reported. The three rings in each of the compounds, 1–4 and 6, are essentially planar, including the five-membered ring containing a formally hydridized sp3 atom. The molecules exhibit slight deviations from overall planarity as shown by the dihedral angles, > 8.15(6)° between the 2,3-dihydro-1H-inden-1-one fragments and the phenyl fragments. The main intermolecular interactions in compounds 1 and are classical O–H•••O1(carbonyl) hydrogen bonds. The carbonyl oxygen atom in compounds 1–4 are involved in non-classical C–H•••O intermolecular hydrogen bonds. Intermolecular C–H•••π interactions are present in 2, 3 and 6, while π•••π are present in 2–4 and 6. As noted in the structure determinations of these compounds, different π•••π motifs are possible. The Hirshfeld surface calculations, while generally concurring with the intermolecular interactions indicated by PLATON analyses, also reveal significant interactions, which fall below the PLATON radar.
