Abstract

The mol­ecule of the title compound, C16H13NO2, is almost planar, with a maximum deviation of 0.013 (2) Å from the best plane; the dihedral angle between the two aromatic rings is 1.06 (1)°. In the crystal, mol­ecules are linked through weak intra­molecular C—H⋯O inter­actions, forming chains running parallel to [10Inline graphic].

Comment

The aminoanthraquinone derivatives are important compounds as dyes and intermediates. We report here the crystal structure of the title compound.

The molecular is almost planar, with a maximum deviation of 0.013 (2)Å from the best plane. The dihedral angle between the two benzene rings is 1.06 (1)° (Fig 1). The bond distances and bond angles are in good agreement with those in a closely related crystal structure (Janczak et al., 1995). In the crystal structure, the crystal packing is stabilized by a weak intramolecular C(9)—H(9)···O(1) (x + 1/2, -y + 1/2, z - 1/2) hydrogen bond [C(9)···O(1) 3.275 (2) Å1,Table 1].

Experimental

The title compound was synthesized according to the reported literature (Havlik et al., 2008). Crystals of (I) suitablefor X-ray diffraction were grown by slow evaporation of a chloroform-methanol(1:1) solution of the title compound under 293 K.

Refinement

All H atoms were positioned in geometrically idealized positions and constrained to ride on their parent atoms, with C—H distances in the range 0.93–0.98 Å and Uiso(H) = 1.2Ueq(C) or Uiso(H) = 1.5Ueq(C).

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.
