1'-Methyl-4'-(4-methyl-phen-yl)dispiro-[indane-2,3'-pyrrolidine-2',3''-indoline]-1,2''-dione
Abstract:
In the title mol-ecule, C(27)H(24)N(2)O(2), the pyrrolidin-2-one ring is almost planar (r.m.s. deviation = 0.003 Å), the pyrrolidine ring has an envelope conformation (the N atom is the flap atom) and the cyclo-penta-none ring is twisted about the C(q)-C(m) bond (q = quaternary and m = methylene). The ketone O atoms are directed to opposite sides of the mol-ecule. Supra-molecular chains along the a axis are formed in the crystal packing mediated by N-H⋯N and C-H⋯O inter-actions. These are connected into layers in the ab plane via C-H⋯π inter-actions.

π Molecular Orbitals of 1,3-Butadiene
The simplest conjugated diene is 1,3-butadiene: a four-carbon system where each carbon is sp2-hybridized and has an unhybridized p orbital that contains an unpaired electron. According to molecular orbital theory, atomic orbitals combine to form molecular orbitals such that the number...
Structure of Conjugated Dienes
Conjugated dienes are compounds characterized by the presence of alternating double and single bonds. In a conjugated system like 1,3-butadiene, the unhybridized 2p orbital on each carbon overlaps continuously, allowing the π electrons to be delocalized across the entire molecule. In contrast, this type of overlap does not occur in cumulated and isolated dienes, such as 2,3-pentadiene and 1,4-pentadiene, respectively. Instead, the π electrons remain localized between the double...
