Toll-like receptors (TLRs) are protein structures belonging to the pattern recognition receptors family. TLRs have the great potential that can directly recognize the specific molecular structures on the surface of pathogens, damaged senescent cells and apoptotic host cells. Available evidence suggests that TLRs have crucial roles in maintaining tissue homeostasis through control of the inflammatory and tissue repair responses during injury.

The crystal structures and Hirshfeld surface analyses of three similar compounds are reported. Methyl 4-[4-(di-fluoro-meth-oxy)phen-yl]-2,7,7-trimethyl-5-oxo-1,4,5,6,7,8-hexa-hydro-quinoline-3-carboxyl-ate, (CHFNO), (), crystallizes in the monoclinic space group 2/ with = 8, while isopropyl 4-[4-(di-fluoro-meth-oxy)phen-yl]-2,6,6-trimethyl-5-oxo-1,4,5,6,7,8-hexa-hydro-quinoline-3-carb-oxyl-ate, (CHFNO), () and -butyl 4-[4-(di-fluoro-meth-oxy)phen-yl]-2,6,6-trimethyl-5-oxo-1,4,5,6,7,8-hexa-hydro-quinoline-3-carboxyl-ate, (CHFNO), () crystallize in the ortho-rhom-bic space group with = 8. In the crystal structure of (), mol-ecules are linked by N-H⋯O and C-H⋯O inter-actions, forming a tri-periodic network, while mol-ecules of () and () are linked by N-H⋯O, C-H⋯F and C-H⋯π inter-actions, forming layers parallel to (002).
