2-Amino-5-(34-dimethoxy­benzyl­idene)-1-methyl­imidazol-4(5H)-one NN-dimethyl­formamide monosolvate

摘要

The crystal structure of the title compound, C13H15N3O3·C3H7NO, was determined as part of a larger project focusing on creatinine derivatives as potential pharmaceuticals. The mol­ecule is essentially planar, in part because of intra­molecular hydrogen bonding. Inversion-related pairs of mol­ecules result from inter­molecular hydrogen bonding. The π systems of 2-amino-5-(3,4-dimethoxy­benzyl­idene)-1-methyl­imidazol-4(5H)-one and an inversion-related mol­ecule over­lap slightly, indicating a small amount of π–π stacking. Bond lengths, angles and torsion angles are consistent with similar structures, except in the imidazolone ring near the doubly bonded C atom, where significant differences occur.
