Abstract

In the title compound, C12H15ClO3, the eth­oxy group is nearly coplanar with the benzene ring, making a dihedral angle of 9.03 (4)°, and is involved in an intra­molecular O—H⋯O hydrogen bond to the neighbouring hy­droxy group.

Comment

The crystal structure of the title compound was determined as a part of a project on the synthesis of new acetophenone derivatives. To clearly identify the product a single crystal X-ray analysis was performed.

In the crystal structure of the title compound the dihedral angle between the benzene ring C3—C8 and the ethoxy group is (O3, C9 and C10) amount to 9.03 (4)°. The carbonyl oxygen atom is involved in intramolecular O—H···O hydrogen bonding to the neighbored hydroxy group

Experimental

2, 4-Dihydroxyacetonephenone (5 mmol), potassium carbonate (6 mmol), 1-bromo-4-chlorobutane (5 mmol) and 50 ml acetone were mixed in a 100 ml flask. After 2.5 h stirring at 329 K the crude product was filtered off. Single crystals suitable for X-ray analysis were obtained by slow evaporation of the solvent from a solution of the title compound in n-hexane/ethyl acetate/methanol (3:3:1, V/V)at room temperature.

Refinement

The H atoms were positioned with idealized geometry (O-H H atoms allowed to rotate but no to tip) with C—H distance in the range of 0.93–0.97 Å and O—H distance of 0.82 Å, and refined as riding, with Uiso(H)= 1.2–1.5Ueq(C,O).

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.
