Crystal structure, spectral studies, and Hirshfeld surfaces analysis of 5-methyl-5H-dibenzob,fazepine and 5-(4-methylbenzyl)-5H-dibenzob,fazepine.

摘要

The compounds, 5-methyl-5H-dibenzo[b,f]azepine (1) and 5-(4-methylbenzyl)-5H-dibenzo[b,f]azepine (2), were synthesized and characterized by spectral studies, and finally confirmed by single crystal X-ray diffraction method. The compound 1 crystallizes in the orthorhombic crystal system in Pca21 space group, having cell parameters (18) Å, (18) Å, (13) Å, and and (3) Å3. And the compound 2 crystallizes in the orthorhombic crystal system and space group Pbca, with cell parameters (5) Å, (2) Å, (7) Å, and and (16) Å3. The azepine ring of both molecules 1 and 2 adopts boat conformation with nitrogen atom showing maximum deviations of 0.483 (2) Å and 0.5025 (10) Å, respectively. The C–H⋯π short contacts were observed. The dihedral angle between fused benzene rings to the azepine motif is 47.1 (2)° for compound 1 and 52.59 (6)° for compound 2, respectively. The short contacts were analyzed and Hirshfeld surfaces computational method for both molecules revealed that the major contribution is from C⋯H and H⋯H intercontacts.
