Abstract

The exocyclic C=C double-bond in the title compound, C11H12OS, has an E configuration. The methyl-bearing C atom in the cyclo­pentane ring is disordered over two positions with a site-occupation factor of 0.899 (8) for the major occupied site.

Comment

The α-methylene hydrogen of cyclic ketones can be abstracted by a strong base to give a carbanion that reacts with aromatic aldehydes to form a compound having a carbon-carbon double bond. Cyclopentanone has been reacted with thiophene-2-carboxaldehyde to yield 2-(2-thienyl)cyclopentanone (Austin et al., 2007; Tsukerman et al., 1964). In the present study, 2-methylcyclopentanone was used in place of the unsubstituted cyclic ketone to yield C11H12OS (Scheme I); the ketone functionality can be further reacted with, for example, primary amines, to yield other halochromic compounds. The carbon-carbon double-bond i of an E configuration. The cyclopentane ring adopts an envelope-shaped conformation whose flap is represented by the methine carbon (Fig. 1). This atom is disordered over two positions in a 90 (1):10 ratio, i.e., it lies above the plane comprising the other non-H atoms in 90% of the molecules, and below the plane in 10% of the molecules.

Experimental

Thiophene-2-carboxaldehyde (1.10 g, 0.01 mol) in ethanol (20 m) was added to a solution of 2-methylcyclopentanone (0.98 g, 0.01 mol) dissolved in 20% ethanolic potassium hydroxide (20 ml). The mixture was stirred for 6 h. This was then poured into water (200 ml) and set aside for several hours. The precipitated product was collected, washed with water, dried and finallly recrystallized from ethanol to yield faint yellow crystals, 343–343 K.

Refinement

Carbon-bound H atoms were placed in calculated positions [C—H 0.95–1.00 Å, Uiso(H) = 1.2–1.5Ueq(C)] and were included in the refinement in the riding model approximation.

The methine unit is disordered over two positions with a site occupation factor of 0.899 (8) for the major occupied site. The anisotropic displacement parameters of the primed atom were set to those of the unprimed one, and they were restrained to be nearly isotropic. Pairs of Cmethine—C distances were restrained to within 0.01 Å of each other.
