5-Acetyl-4-(2,5-dimethoxyphenyl)-6-methyl-1-(prop-2-ynyl)-3,4-dihydropyrimidin-2(1H)-one

Abstract

In the title compound, C18H20N2O4, the 3,4-dihydropyrimidin-2(1H)-one ring has a screw-boat conformation. The mean plane through this heterocycle is almost perpendicular to the prop-2-ynyl chain and to the benzene ring, with which it makes a dihedral angle of 87.63 (6)°. The plane through the acetyl group makes a dihedral angle of 33.11 (8)° with the mean plane of the heterocycle. There is an intramolecular C—H...O hydrogen bond present forming anS(6) ring motif. In the crystal, molecules are linked by C—H...O hydrogen bonds, forming layers parallel to thebcplane. There are also C—H...π interactions present within the layers.
