Abstract

The mol­ecular structure of the title compound, C10H8Cl2O3, exists in a cis-enol form, which is stabilized by a strong intra­molecular O—H⋯O hydrogen bond. In the crystal, C—H⋯O inter­actions generate zigzag chains along the c axis which are, in turn, linked by further C—H⋯O inter­actions into sheets parallel to (100).

Comment

1,3-Diketones are versatile intermediates for the synthesis of some palladium(II) and platinum(II) compounds (Nakamoto et al., 1970) and other coordination compounds (Ma et al., 1999; Yoshida et al., 2005). We present here the structure characterization of (Z)-methyl 3-(2,4-dichlorophenyl)-3-hydroxyacrylate.

The molecular structure (Fig.1) exists in a cis-enol form which is stabilized by a strong intramolecular O1—H1···O2 hydrogen bond. The crystal structure (Fig.2) is stabilized by intermolecular C—H···O interactions (Table 1) . The C3—H3···O2 interactions generated zigzag chains along the c axis which in turn are linked by C10—H10B···O1 interactions giving sheets parallel to (100).

Experimental

The title compound was synthesized according to the literature procedure of Wu et al. (1997).Single crystals suitable for X-ray diffraction were obtained by slow evaporation of an ethanol solution at room temperature.

Refinement

All H atoms were detected in a difference map, but all other H-atoms were placed in calculated positions and refined using a riding motion approximation, with C—H=0.93–0.96 Å, with Uiso(H)=1.2 or 1.5Ueq(C); O—H=0.82 Å, with Uiso(H)=1.5Ueq(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.
