Crystal structure of dimethyl 3,3'-[(3-fluoro-phenyl)methyl-ene]bis-(1H-indole-2-carboxyl-ate).

ABSTRACT: In the title compound, C27H21FN2O4, the mean planes of the two indole ring systems (r.m.s. deviations = 0.0166 and 0.0086 Å) are approximately perpendic-ular to one another, making a dihedral angle of 87.8 (5)°; the fluorobenzene ring is twisted with respect to the mean planes of the two indole ring systems at 82.7 (5) and 85.5 (3)°. In the crystal, pairs of N-H⋯O hydrogen bonds link the mol-ecules into the inversion dimers, which are further linked by N-H⋯O hydrogen bonds into supra-molecular chains propagating along the b-axis direction. Weak C-H⋯π inter-actions are observed between neighbouring chains.
