1 Source of materials

In a 100 mL round-bottom flask, 1 mmol of 4–chlorobenzohydrazide and 1 mmol of 4–hydroxypropiophenone were added, followed by the addition of 25 mL of absolute alcohol and 2 drops of glacial acetic acid. The resulting solution was stirred at 80 °C for 5 h. Subsequently, the ethanol solvent was completely evaporated using a rotary evaporator, yielding the crude product. The crude product (0.05 g) was dissolved in 15 mL of ethanol, and the solvent was allowed to slowly evaporate at room temperature. After a period of 3 days, a crystal was obtained.

2 Experimental details

The crystal structure was solved with SHELXT [2], and further refined using the SHELXL program [3]. All hydrogen atoms were positioned at calculated coordinates and refined isotropically. The crystal structure visualization was generated using the OLEX2 software package.

3 Comment

Acylhydrazones demonstrate remarkable structural flexibility, which renders them highly adaptable in both chemical and pharmaceutical contexts [5]. In order to investigate the structure of acylhydrazone derivatives, numerous related structures have been reported [6], [7], [8], [9], [10].

The molecules in the titled compound adopt non-planar conformations, with the two aromatic rings positioned in different planes, separated by a dihedral angle of 66.6°. Moreover, the chlorophenyl group and the amide group form a dihedral angle of 36.4°, while the chlorophenyl group and the amine group form a dihedral angle of 3.64°.

Within the crystal structure, the molecular assembly is primarily stabilized by intermolecular hydrogen bonding interactions involving the hydroxyl and oxygen atoms of the acyl hydrazone moiety. These hydrogen bonds create a network of intermolecular interactions, resulting in stable packing arrangements. The hydrogen bond length is measured to be 1.889(3) Å, while the bond angle is determined to be 174.47(16)°. The presence of such hydrogen bonding in the crystal structure is distinctive when compared to similar N-acyl hydrazone derivatives lacking these intermolecular interactions. The structure is similar with other reports [11], [12], [13], [14].

In addition to the hydrogen bonding network, the crystal structure also exhibits ππ stacking interactions between adjacent molecules containing the chlorophenyl groups.
