2-(4-Methoxyphenyl)-6-trifluoromethyl-1H-pyrrolo[3,2-c]quinoline monohydrate
Abstract
In the title compound, C19H13F3N2O·H2O, the phenyl and pyrroloquinoline ring system are close to coplanar [dihedral angle = 10.94 (4)°]. The methoxy group also is almost coplanar with the phenyl ring [5.4 (1)°]. In the crystal structure N—H...O(water) and water–quinoline O—H...N hydrogen bonds build up a supramolecular chain-like arrangement along [001]. The remaining H atom of the water molecule does not take part in classical hydrogen bonds. Instead, this O—H bond points toward the center of the phenyl ring of a neighbouring molecule. Weak C—H...O and C—H...π interactions are also present.
