5-(4-Bromoanilinomethylene)-2,2-dimethyl-1,3-dioxane-4,6-dione

Abstract

In the title compound, C13H12BrNO4, the dihedral angles between the aminomethylene group and the dioxane ring and between the benzyl ring and the aminomethylene unit are 7.96 (4) and 12.15 (4)°, respectively. The dioxane ring shows a half-boat conformation, in which the C atom between the dioxane ring O atoms is 0.460 (8) Å out of the plane through the remaining ring atoms. An intramolecular N—H...O hydrogen bond may stabilize the planar conformation of the molecule. An intermolecular C—H...O interaction is also present.
