Abstract

The crystal structures of four indole derivatives with various substituents at the 2-, 3- and 5-positions of the ring system are described, namely, ethyl 3-(5-chloro-2-phenyl-1H-indol-3-yl)-3-phenylpropanoate, C25H22ClNO2, (I), 2-bromo-3-(2-
nitro-1-phenylethyl)-1H-indole, C16H13BrN2O2, (II), 5-methoxy-3-(2-nitro-1-phenylethyl)-2-phenyl-1H-indole, C23H20N2O3, (III), and 5-chloro-3-(2-nitro-1-phenylethyl)-2-phenyl-1H-indole, C22H17ClN2O2, (IV). The dominant intermolecular interaction in each case is an N—H O hydrogen bond, which generates either chains or inversion dimers. Weak C—H O, C—H and – interactions occur in these structures but there is no consistent pattern amongst them. Two of these compounds act as modest enhancers of CB1 cannabanoid signalling and two are inactive.
