Abstract
A mixture of the E and Z isomers of ethyl 2-cyano-3-((4-fluorophenyl)amino) acrylate was synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis, attenuated total reflectance-Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, 1H and 13C nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy. The structure of the Z isomer was determined by single crystal X-ray diffraction, which revealed a three-dimensional supramolecular network governed by CH⋯N, CH⋯O, and CH⋯F hydrogen bonds and π⋯π stacking interactions. The combination of these interactions plays an important role in stabilizing the self-assembly process and the molecular conformation. Hirshfeld surface analysis indicated the roles of the noncovalent interactions in the crystal packing, which were quantified by fingerprint plots and DFT calculations.
