Abstract
The molecule of the title heteroaryl chalcone derivative, C13H11NOS, exists in a trans-configuaration and is almost planar with a dihedral angle of 3.73 (8)° between the phenyl and thiophene rings. An intramolecular N—H⋯O hydrogen bond generates an S(6) ring motif. In the crystal, two adjacent molecules are linked into a dimer in an anti-parallel face-to-face manner by a pair of C—H⋯O interactions. Neighboring dimers are further linked into chains along the c-axis direction by N—H⋯N hydrogen bonds.

Comment
The basic structure of chalcones consists of two aromatic rings bound by an α,β-unsaturated carbonyl group, a unique template associated with various biological activities such as analgesic, anti-inflammatory, antibacterial (Go et al., 2005; Liu et al., 2008; Ni et al., 2004), anticancer and antioxidant (Shenvi et al., 2013) as well as tyrosinase inhibitory (Nerya et al., 2004) and fluorescence (Suwunwong et al., 2011) properties. The title compound (I) was synthesized and studied for antioxidant activity by the DPPH scavenging method (Molyneux, 2004). Our result showed that (I) exhibits a weakly antioxidant activity. It was also tested for antityrosinase activity but found to be inactive. Herein we report the crystal structure of (I).
The molecular structure of (I) exists in a trans configuration with respect to the C8═C9 double bond [1.340 (2)°] as indicated by the torsion angle C7–C8–C9–C10 = 179.29 (15)° (Fig. 1). The whole molecule is almost planar, the interplanar angle between phenyl and thiophene rings being 3.73 (8)° (Fig. 2). The propenone unit (C7—C9/O1) is almost planar with the torsion angle O1–C7–C8–C9 = -7.8 (2)°. The mean plane through the propenone bridge makes the dihedral angles of 7.37 (10) and 3.66 (10)° with the phenyl and thiophene rings, respectively. Intramolecular N1—H1N1···O1 hydrogen bond between amino and enone groups (Fig. 1 and Table 1) generates S(6) ring motif (Bernstein et al., 1995). This intramolecular hydrogen bond helps to stabilize the planarity of the structure. However it may result in the prohibition of the α,β-unsaturated carbonyl moiety to be reactive. The bond distances in (I) agree with the literature values (Allen et al., 1987) and are comparable with those observed in related structures (Fun et al., 2011; Suwunwong et al., 2009).
In the crystal packing (Fig. 3), two adjacent molecules are linked in an anti-parallel face-to-face manner into a dimer by a pair of Cthiophene—H···O interactions and the neighboring dimers are further linked into chains along the c axis by N—H···N hydrogen bonds (Fig. 4 and Table 1).
Experimental
The title compound (I) was prepared by mixing 2-aminoacetophenone (0.40 g, 3 mmol) and 2-thiophenecarboxaldehyde (0.34 g, 3 mmol) in ethanol (30 ml). 30% NaOH aqueous solution (5 ml) was then added and the mixture was stirred at room temperature for 2 hr. The yellow solid formed was filtered and washed with distilled water. Yellow block-shaped single crystals of (I) suitable for x-ray structure determination were recrystallized from ethanol by slow evaporation at room temperature over a few weeks. M.p. 407–408 K.
Refinement
Amino H atoms were located in difference maps and refined isotropically. The remaining H atoms were fixed geometrically and allowed to ride on their parent atoms, with d(C—H) = 0.93 Å for aromatic and 0.98 for CH. The Uiso values were constrained to be 1.2Ueq of the carrier atoms. Four outliers (1 5 4, 5 5 2, -1 5 5, -33 3 15) were omitted from the last refinement cycles.

Special details
| Experimental. The crystal was placed in the cold stream of an Oxford Cryosystems Cobra open-flow nitrogen cryostat (Cosier & Glazer, 1986) operating at 100.0 (1) K. |
| 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. |
