Abstract

The title compound, C16H20NO4P, crystallizes as a zwitterion. In the mol­ecule, the two aromatic rings form a dihedral angle of 55.2 (1)°. In the crystal, inter­molecular N—H⋯O and O—H⋯O hydrogen bonds link the mol­ecules into columns propagating in [010].

Comment

As a continuation of our structural study of (2-hydroxyphenyl)methylphosphonate derivatives (Zhang et al., 2005; 2007), we present here the crystal structure of the title compound, (I), which crystallizes as a zwitterion.

In the title molecule (Fig. 1), two aromatic rings form a dihedral angle of 55.2 (1)°. In the crystal structure, intermolecular N—H···O and O—H···O hydrogen bonds (Table 1) link molecules into columns propagated in [010].

Experimental

The title compound was synthesized following the reported method (Zhang et al., 2005). Diethyl phosphonate (0.02 mol) was dissolved in 80 ml of ethanol. The solution was added dropwise to a mixture of salicylaldehyde (0.02 mol) and benzylamine (0.02 mol) in 30 ml e thanol which was refluxed for 4 h. The resulting solution was refluxed until solid appeared. The product was filtered and washed with ethanol. Yield 43%.

Refinement

H atoms attached to C atoms were positioned geometrically and refined using a riding model, with Csp3—H = 0.96–0.98 Å or Csp2—H = 0.93 Å and with Uiso(H) = 1.2Ueq(C). H atom attached to O atom was O—H = 0.82 Å and with Uiso(H)=1.5Ueq(O). H atoms attached to N atom were located by difference Fourier synthesis with the range 0.86–0.97 Å and refined isotropically.

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.
