Abstract

The title chiral compound, C14H16N2O2, was prepared by esterification of (S)-1,2,3,9-tetra­hydro­pyrrolo[2,1-b]quinazol­in-1-carboxylic acid in the presence of HCl/EtOH. In the mol­ecule, the quinazoline ring is non-planar and exhibits a distorted half-chair conformation, while the five-membered ring shows a typical envelope conformation. Inter­molecular C—H⋯N hydrogen bonding helps to stabilize the crystal structure.

Comment

The title chiral compound is a derivate of (S)-1,2,3,9-tetrahydro-pyrrolo(2,1 - b)quinazolin-1-carboxylic acid (Linaria acid). Linaria acid is a nature compound, was isolated from the Linaria vulgaris (Hua et al., 2002). Linaria vulgaris is a grassy plant that occurs in northeast China. The plant is used in traditional folk medicine for the treatment of coughs and asthma and as an expectorant. As part of our search on new Linaria acid derivate compounds (Cheng et al., 2006), the title compound is recently synthesized and its crystal structure is reported here.

The molecular structure is shown in Fig. 1. The bond lengths and angles are within normal ranges. The quinazoline moiety is not planar, the central N-heterocyclic ring shows a distorted conformation, with atom N1 and C8 displaced by 0.420 Å and 0.257 Å from the mean plane defined by atoms C1/C2/C7/N2. The five-membered ring adopts an envelope conformation, with atom C10 deviating by 0.443 Å from the plane formed by the other atoms in the ring. Atom C11 of the title molecule is chiral, S configuration was assigned to this atom based on the known chirality of the equivalent atom in the starting material. An intermolecular C—H···N hydrogen bonding (Table 1) helps to stabilize the crystal structure.

Experimental

A rapid stream of hydrogen chloride was passed for 3 h into absolute ethanol (200 ml) in an icebath. To this solution was added (S)-1,2,3,9-tetrahydro-pyrrolo(2,1 - b)quinazolin-1-carboxylic acid (4.32 g, 20 mmol), and this solution was refluxed for 3 h. The ethanol was removed under vacuum. The pure product was obtained through silica gel chromatography (eluant: petroleum ether/ethyl acetate, 1:10). Single crystals suitable for X-ray diffraction were obtained by slow evaporation of a dilute solution of the title compound in ethyl acetate at room temperature.

Refinement

All H atoms were placed in geometrically idealized positions and constrained to ride on their parent atoms, with C—H = 0.95, 0.99, 0.98 and 1.00 Å for phenyl, methylene, methyl and tertiary H atoms, respectively, with Uiso(H) = xUeq(C), where x=1.5 for methyl H, and x=1.2 for all other H atoms. Based on known chirality of the equivalent atom in the starting material, the S chirality at C11 was assigned. Friedel pairs were merged.

Special details

Geometry. All e.s.d.'s (except the e.s.d. in the dihedral angle between two l.s. planes) are estimated using the full covariance matrix. The cell e.s.d.'s are taken into account individually in the estimation of e.s.d.'s in distances, angles and torsion angles; correlations between e.s.d.'s in cell parameters are only used when they are defined by crystal symmetry. An approximate (isotropic) treatment of cell e.s.d.'s is used for estimating e.s.d.'s involving l.s. planes.
Refinement. Refinement of F2 against ALL reflections. The weighted R-factor wR and goodness of fit S are based on F2, conventional R-factors R are based on F, with F set to zero for negative F2. The threshold expression of F2 > σ(F2) is used only for calculating R-factors(gt) etc. and is not relevant to the choice of reflections for refinement. R-factors based on F2 are statistically about twice as large as those based on F, and R- factors based on ALL data will be even larger.
