Source of material
All of reagents were purchased with analysis grade. 2.82 g 3-chloro-N-(quinolin-8-yl)benzamide (10 mmol), 0.38 g anhydrous copper nitrate (2 mmol), 4.15 g 2,2′-azobisisobutyronitrile (25 mmol), and 1.34 g silver acetate (8 mmol) were added to 40 mL distilled acetonitrile in a borosil sealed tube. The tube was heated at 403 K under oxygen atmosphere for 8 h, then cooled to room temperature and filtered. The filtrate evaporated slowly in air. A few days later, colourless crystals were harvested, yield 38% (based on 3-chloro-N-(quinolin-8-yl)benzamide).
Experimental details
Single crystal X-ray diffraction data were collected at 293 K using an Agilent Super Nova diffractometer equipped with a Dual source (Cu at Home/Near) and an Atlas S2 detector. The structure was solved by direct methods with the SHELXS-2018 program. All H-atoms attached to C atoms were positioned with idealized geometry and refined isotropically (Uiso(H) = 1.2Ueq(C)) using a riding model with C–H = 0.930 Å. Structural refinement suggests the possible presence of a small amount (< 5%) of disorder of the Cl atom between the 5- and 6- positions on the isoindoline ring.
Comment
The aerobic carbonylation of C(sp2)–H with less toxic 2,2′-azobisisobutyronitrile using transition metal salts as the effective catalysts has attracted a lot of interest. Through this way many N-quinolyl substituted phthalimide derivatives have been studied and some of their crystal structures have also been reported [5], [6], [7], [8]. However, the crystal of the title compound, 5-chloro-2-(quinolin-8-yl)isoindoline-1,3-dione (CQDD), has not been reported. CQDD crystalizes in the triclinic space group
