Abstract

In the title mol­ecule, C15H12Cl2N4O, the two benzene rings are inclined at a dihedral angle of 14.5 (2)°. In the crystal, inter­molecular N—H⋯O hydrogen bonds link mol­ecules into chains propagated in [001].

Comment

In continuation of our ongoing program directed to the development of environmentally benign methods of chemical synthesis (Li et al., 2008), we present here a user-friendly, solvent-free protocol for the synthesis of substituted carbonohydrazide starting from the fragrant aldehydes and carbohydrazide under solvent-free conditions. Using this method, we obtained the title compound, (I).

In (I) (Fig. 1), the bond lengths and angles are normal and correspond to those observed in bis(3-fluorophenylmethine)carbonohydrazide (Meyers et al., 1995). Two benzene rings - C3-C8 and C10-C15, respectively - form a dihedral angle of 14.46 (22)°. Intermolecular N—H···O hydrogen bonds (Table 1) link the molecules into chains propagated in direction [001].

Experimental

o-Chlorobenzaldehyde (10 mmol) and carbohydrazide (5.0 mmol) were mixed in 50 ml flash under sovlent-free condtions After stirring 2 h at 373 K, tthe resulting mixture was cooled to room temperature, and recrystalized from ethanol, and afforded the title compound as a crystalline solid. Elemental analysis: calculated for C15H12Cl2N4O: C 53.75, H 3.61, N 16.72%; found: C 53.61, H 3.47, N 16.86%.

Refinement

All H atoms were placed in geometrically idealized positions (N—H 0.86 and C—H 0.93 Å) and treated as riding on their parent atoms, with Uiso(H) = 1.2 Ueq(C) (C, N).

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.
