Crystal structure and DFT study of benzyl 1-benzyl-2-oxo-1,2-dihydroquinoline-4-carboxylate
Abstract
In the title quinoline derivative, C24H19NO3, the two benzyl rings are inclined to the quinoline ring mean plane by 74.09 (8) and 89.43 (7)°, and to each other by 63.97 (10)°. The carboxylate group is twisted from the quinoline ring mean plane by 32.2 (2)°. There is a short intramolecular C—H...O contact forming an S(6) ring motif. In the crystal, molecules are linked by bifurcated C—H,H...O hydrogen bonds, forming layers parallel to the ac plane. The layers are linked by C—H...π interactions, forming a supramolecular three-dimensional structure.
