5-Amino-5′-bromo-6-(4-methylbenzoyl)-8-nitro-2,3-dihydro-1H-spiro[imidazo[1,2-a]pyridine-7,3′-indolin]-2′-one including an unknown solvate
In the title compound, C22H18BrN5O4, the central six-membered ring, derived from 1,4-dihydropyridine, adopts a distorted boat conformation with a puckering amplitude of 0.197 (3) Å, the imidazole ring adopts a twisted conformation with a puckering amplitude of 0.113 (3) Å, and the oxindole moiety is planar with an r.m.s. deviation of 0.0125 Å. Two intramolecular N—H...O hydrogen bonds are formed, each closing anS(6) loop. In the crystal, strong N—H...O hydrogen bonds lead to the formation of zigzag chains along thecaxis. These are consolidated in the three-dimensional crystal packing by weak N—H...O hydrogen bonding, as well as by C—H...O, C—H...Br and C—H...π interactions. A small region of electron density well removed from the main molecule was removed with the SQUEEZE procedure inPLATON[Spek (2009).Acta Cryst. D65, 148–155] following unsuccessful attempts to model it as a plausible solvent molecule. The unit-cell characteristics do not take into account this feature of the structure.
