Abstract: | Synchrotron radiation was used to study the structure of the title compound, C20H19BrN2O3·C3H7NO, which was obtained as fine fragile needle‐shaped crystals by recrystallization from dimethylformamide (DMF), one molecule of which is incorporated per asymmetric unit into the crystal. The compound adopts a compact closed conformation with the orientation of the benzyl group such that the aryl ring is positioned over the piperazinedione ring, resulting in a Cspiro...Ctrans—C—CPh pseudo‐torsion angle of −3.3 (3)°. The five‐membered ring is present in an expected envelope conformation and the six‐membered piperazinedione ring adopts a less puckered boat‐like conformation. Reciprocal amide‐to‐amide hydrogen bonding between adjacent piperazinedione rings and C—H...O interactions involving DMF molecules propagate in the crystal as a thick ribbon in the a‐axis direction. |
