N-(4-Chloro-phen-yl)-4-meth-oxy-3-(propanamido)-benzamide cyclo-hexane hemisolvate
Abstract:
The title compound, C(17)H(17)ClN(2)O(3)·0.5C(6)H(12), was prepared by the condensation reaction of 4-meth-oxy-3-(propanamido)-benzoic acid with 4-chloro-aniline. The Cl atom, the propionyl CH(3) group and the cyclo-hexyl CH(2) group are disordered over two sets of sites of equal occupancy in both mol-ecules. The cyclo-hexane solvent mol-ecule is disordered over two orientations which were modelled with relative occupancies of 0.484 (4) and 0.516 (4). In the crystal, there are a number of N-H⋯O hydrogen bonds, forming layers perpendicular to (001).

In cyclohexane, the substituents can occupy different positions generating distinct isomers.
Stability of Substituted Cyclohexanes
The two chair conformations of cyclohexanes undergo rapid interconversion at room temperature. Both forms have identical energies and stabilities, each comprising equal amounts of the equilibrium mixture. Replacing a hydrogen atom with a functional group makes the two conformations energetically non-equivalent.
