Crystal structure of 5′′-(4-chlorobenzylidene)-4′-(4-chlorophenyl)-1′-methyltrispiro[acenapthylene-1,2′-pyrrolidine-3′,1′′-cyclohexane-3′′,2′′′-[1,3]dioxane]-2(1H),6′′-dione

subject

description

In the title compound, C36H29Cl2NO4, two spiro links connect the methyl-substituted pyrrolidine ring to the acenaphthylene and cyclohexanone rings. The cyclohexanone ring is further connected to the dioxalane ring by a third spiro junction. The five-membered ring of the acenaphthylen-1-one ring system adopts a flattened envelope conformation, with the ketonic C atom as the flap, whereas the dioxalane and pyrrolidine rings each have a twist conformation. The cyclohexenone ring assumes a boat conformation. An intramolecular C—H...O hydrogen-bond interaction is present. In the crystal, molecules are linked by non-classical C—H...O hydrogen bonds, forming chains extending parallel to theaaxis.
