(E)-5-[1-Hydroxy-3-(3,4,5-trimethoxyphenyl)allylidene]-1,3-dimethylpyrimidine-2,4,6-trione: crystal structure and Hirshfeld surface analysis

Abstract

In the title compound, C18H20N2O7, the dihedral angle between the aromatic rings is 7.28 (7)° and the almost planar conformation of the molecule is supported by an intramolecular O—H...O hydrogen bond, which closes an S(6) ring. In the crystal, weak C—H...O hydrogen bonds and aromatic π–π stacking link the molecules into a three-dimensional network. A Hirshfeld surface analysis showed that the major contribution to the intermolecular interactions are van der Waals interactions (H...H contacts), accounting for 48.4% of the surface.
