Crystal structure, Hirshfeld surface analysis and interaction energy calculation of 4-(furan-2-yl)-2-(6-methyl-2,4-dioxopyran-3-ylidene)-2,3,4,5-tetrahydro-1H-1,5-benzodiazepine

Abstract

The title compound {systematic name: (S,E)-3-[4-(furan-2-yl)-2,3,4,5-tetrahydro-1H-benzo[b][1,4]diazepin-2-ylidene]-6-methyl-2H-pyran-2,4(3H)-dione}, C19H16N2O4, is constructed from a benzodiazepine ring system linked to furan and pendant dihydropyran rings, where the benzene and furan rings are oriented at a dihedral angle of 48.7 (2)°. The pyran ring is modestly non-planar [largest deviation of 0.029 (4) Å from the least-squares plane] while the tetrahydrodiazepine ring adopts a boat conformation. The rotational orientation of the pendant dihydropyran ring is partially determined by an intramolecular N—HDiazp...ODhydp (Diazp = diazepine and Dhydp = dihydropyran) hydrogen bond. In the crystal, layers of molecules parallel to the bc plane are formed by N—HDiazp...ODhydp hydrogen bonds and slipped π–π stacking interactions. The layers are connected by additional slipped π–π stacking interactions. A Hirshfeld surface analysis of the crystal structure indicates that the most important contributions for the crystal packing are from H...H (46.8%), H...O/O...H (23.5%) and H...C/C...H (15.8%) interactions, indicating that van der Waals interactions are the dominant forces in the crystal packing. Computational chemistry indicates that in the crystal the N—H...O hydrogen-bond energy is 57.5 kJ mol−1.
