Abstract

The benzimidazolone part of the title mol­ecule, C13H13ClN2O, is almost planar (r.m.s. deviation = 0.006 Å) and its mean plane is aligned at dihedral angles of 62.5 (1) and 78.0 (1)° with respect to the mean planes of the allyl substituents.

Comment

Tetraalkylammonium halides are used as phase-transfer catalyst in the synthesis of 1,3-dialkyl-1,2-benzimidazolones, butyltriethylammonium chloride being used in the synthesis of the 1,3-diallyl derivative (Vernin et al., 1981). Thhis compound as well as its derivatives possess pharmalogically important properties. The title chlorine-substitutent compound (Scheme I) was synthesized for evaluation of such properties. The benzimidazolone part of the C13H13ClN2O molecule (Fig. 1) is planar (r.m.s. deviation 0.006 Å); its mean plane is aligned at 62.5 (1) and 78.0 (1) with respect to the mean planes of the allyl substituents.

Experimental

To 5-chloro-1H-benzo[d]imidazol-2(3H)-one (0.2 g, 1.18 mmol), potassium carbonate (0.4 g, 2.8 mmol), and tetra-n-butylammonium bromide (0.08 g, 0.23 mmol) in DMF (15 ml) was added allyl-bromide (0.22 ml, 2.6 mmol). Stirring was continued at room temperature for 6 h. The salts were removed by filtration and the filtrate concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue was separated by chromatography on a column of silica gel with ethyl acetate/hexane (1/2) as eluent. Colorless crystals were isolated when the solvent was allowed to evaporate.

Refinement

Carbon-bound H-atoms were placed in calculated positions (C—H 0.93–0.97 Å) and were included in the refinement in the riding model approximation, with U(H) set to 1.2–1.5U(C).
