Abstract:
The title compound, C10H8BrNO2, crystallizes with two independent molcules (A and B) in the asymmetric unit. In each mol-ecule, the indoline ring system is almost planar, with the largest deviation from the mean plane being 0.016 (2) Å in mol-ecule A and 0.040 (13) Å in mol-ecule B. In each mol-ecule, the ethyl group is nearly perpendicular to the indoline ring system with C-C-N-C torsion angles of -94.8 (3) and 93.0 (3)° in mol-ecules A and B, respectively. In the crystal, the two mol-ecules are inclined to each other, making a dihedral angle of 6.28 (8)°. In the molecular packing, the A and B mol-ecules are linked by C-H⋯O hydrogen bonds, forming -A-B-A-B- chains along [01-1]. Parallel chains are linked via a weak slipped parallel π-π inter-action [inter-centroid distance = 3.6107 (14) Å] and a short Br⋯O contact [3.183 (2) Å], forming a three-dimensional structure.

Structural Isomerism
Isomers are different chemical species that have the same chemical formula. Structural isomerism of coordination compounds can be divided into two subcategories, the linkage isomers and coordination-sphere isomers.
Linkage isomers occur when the coordination compound contains a ligand that can bind to the transition metal center through two different atoms. For example, the CN− ligand can bind through the carbon atom or through the nitrogen atom. Similarly, SCN− can...
