The Crystal Structure of Fluphenazinium Dipicrate Dimethylsulphoxide Solvate

Abstract  

The title compound, C₂₂H₂₈F₃N₃OS²⁺ × 2(C₆H₂N₃O₇ ⁻) × (CH₃)₂SO—the picrate salt of the potent antipsychotic drug, fluphenazine—crystallizes in the triclinic P-1 space group with unit cell parameters a = 10.6333(12) ?, b = 11.9696(12) ?, c = 17.7036(15) ?, α = 103.265(9)°, β = 98.414(9)°, γ = 102.702(10)°. The ionic fragments: the fluphenazinium dictation, and two picrate anions, are joined by means of strong N–H···O and weak C–H···O hydrogen bonds into the chains of alternating cations and anions, expanding along [010] direction. Within the chain, the picrates interact by means of short π···π interactions: the mean distance between the planes is 3.366 ?; additional interaction of the same type between one of the picrates and the phenyl ring of the phenothiazine ring system additionally strengthen the pattern. The phenothiazine ring exists in a typical, “butterfly-like” conformation, with two terminal rings planar and the central ring in a slightly flattened boat form. This conformation results in the dihedral angle between the terminal rings of 41.76(5)°. The aliphatic chain which substitutes phenothiazine at N-position is not in an extended conformation, the torsion angles along this chain are 75.95(14)° and −163.96(10)°. The structure contains also the solvent—dimethylsulphoxide molecules, which are connected with the cation–anion structure by means of strong O–H···O hydrogen bonds.     

Hydrogen Bonded 3D Supramolecular Architectures of Two Organic Salts Assembled from 2-Aminoheterocyclic Compounds and Phosphoric Acid

Abstract  

Two phosphate salts (2-aminopyrimidine): (phosphoric acid): H₂O [HL1⁺ (H₂PO₄) ⁻ ]·H₂O (1), and (4-phenylthiazol-2-amine): (phosphoric acid) [HL2⁺·(H₂PO₄)⁻] (2) based on 2-aminoheterocyclic compounds, 2-aminopyrimidine (L1), and 4-phenylthiazol-2-amine (L2) were prepared and structurally characterized by X-ray crystallography. Compound 1 crystallizes in the triclinic, space group P-1, with a = 6.2201(7) Å, b = 8.6139(9) Å, c = 9.4800(10) Å, α = 109.685(2)°, β = 106.3340(10)°, γ = 95.4450(10)°, V = 448.72(8) Å³, Z = 2. For 1, the cations were linked to each other via intermolecular C–H···N hydrogen bonds to form a 1-D chain structure running along the a-axis direction. The anions and the water molecules were connected alternatively along the a-axis direction through O–H···O hydrogen bonds to form a 1-D chain also. The cationic chains and the anionic chains were alternatively connected along the c-axis direction through N–H···O and C–H···O hydrogen bonds to form a 2D corrugated sheet. Adjacent sheets were combined together through π–π interaction to form double sheet. These double sheets were further joined together by O–H···O and N–H···O hydrogen bonds to produce a 3D network structure. Compound 2 crystallizes in the Orthorhombic, space group Pbca, with a = 10.1929(10) Å, b = 8.4406(9) Å, c = 27.589(2) Å, α = 90°, β = 90°, γ = 90°, V = 2373.6(4) Å³, Z = 8. In 2, the phosphates formed 1D chain along the b-axis through two P–O–H···O = P hydrogen bonds. The cations formed 1D zigzag chain along the b-axis direction under the CH–π interaction. The anionic chains were intercalated between two adjacent cationic chains through N–H···O, O–H···O, C–H···O, and O–S contacts. Such stacking repeated along the c-axis direction to form a 3D network structure.

Abstract  A new ion-pair complex, bis(1-benzyltriphenylphosphinium) bis(1,2,5-thiadiazole-3,4-dithiolato)nickelate(II), [BzTPP]₂[Ni(tdas)₂](1), has been prepared and characterized by elemental analyses, UV, IR, MS spectrum, molar conductivity and single crystal X-ray diffraction. The title complex crystallizes in the triclinic space group P-1, a = 9.098(1) Å, b = 9.666(1) Å, c = 29.573(3) Å, α = 83.81(1)°, β = 81.97(1)°, γ = 78.83(1)°, V = 2,517.5(4) ų, Z = 2. The unit cell contains two [BzTPP]⁺ and two halves of [Ni(tdas)₂]²⁻ anions in which the anion exhibits a quasi-planar structure. The [BzTPP]⁺ cation adopts a conformation where four phenyl rings are twisted to the C–C–P reference plane. The weak cation–cation C–H···π, π···π interactions and anion–cation C–H···N hydrogen bonds between the anion and cation play an important role in the stacking and stabilizing of the title complex.

In (I), the oxalate salt is monoprotonated and in (II), the terephthalic acid is located across the inversion centre and exists as doubly protonated anion. In (I), the cation and anion are interlinked by the N–H···O and O–H···O hydrogen bonds into continuous two-dimensional layers generate an R₆⁶(34) hydrogen-bonded motif tetramers running parallel to the (0 0 1) plane. In (II), the cation and water form a centrosymmetric tetramer of R₄⁴(22) hydrogen-bonded motif via N–H···O and O–H···O hydrogen bonds and further cross-linked by centrosymmetric anions to form an infinite three-dimensional supramolecular hydrogen-bonded networks.     

Hydrogen Bonded, π···π Stacked and X···π Framework Structures in Bis(2,6-Lutidinium) Tetrahalocuprate(II) Complexes

Abstract  

In the crystal structures of (2,6-lutidinium)₂[CuCl₄], 1 and (2,6-lutidinium)₂[CuBr₄], 2, the anion CuX₄ ²⁻ is connected to eight and four surrounding cations in 1 and 2, respectively, through (N–H···X) (H₂C–H···X) and (C–H···X) hydrogen bonds to form two-dimensional layers approximately normal to the crystallographic b-axis. These layers are further connected by means of offset face-to-face interactions (parallel to b-axis) to give three-dimensional structures. The hydrogen bonding (type and number) around each anion could be influenced by the anion size, as same cation is used, allowing different cation…anion interpenetrations.

It is also supported by weak intermolecular Cg···Cg π–π and Cl–O···Cg π-ring interactions which gives additional support to molecular packing stability in the unit cell. Geometry optimized MOPAC AM1 computational calculations on each compound provides support to the structural features in their respective crystal structures.     

Hydrogen Bonding Patterns of Coordinated Ligands in Hybrid Materials: Crystal Structures of Hydronium Tetra(Thiocyanato-κN)-Zinc(II): Tris(2-Amino-4,6-Dimethylpyrimidinium) (2-amino-4,6-dimethylpyrimidine) Dinitrate and Bis(2-Amino-4,6-Dimethylpyrimidinium) Tetrachlorocobaltate(II) Monohydrate

Abstract  

Hydronium tetra(thiocyanato-κN)-zinc (II) tri (2-amino-4,6-dimethylpyrimidinium) 2-amino-4,6-dimethylpyrimidine dinitrate [H₃O⁺ Zn(NCS)₄ 3(C₆H₁₀N₃ ⁺) C₆H₉N₃ 2(NO₃)⁻] and bis(2-amino-4,6-dimethylpyrimidinium) tetrachlorocobaltate(II) monohydrate [2(C₆H₁₀N₃ ⁺)] CoCl₄ H₂O have been synthesized and characterized by X-ray diffraction analysis and spectroscopic studies. In compound 1, the coordination geometry around zinc is distorted tetrahedral, Zn being bonded to four N atoms from the thiocyanate anions. In compound 2, the anion [CoCl₄]²⁻ displays distortion from ideal tetrahedral geometry. The 2-amino-4,6-dimethylpyrimidine cations are not directly coordinated to zinc/cobalt, but are hydrogen bonded to the thiocyanate/chloride ions. In both the compounds the protonated nitrogen N1 and the 2-amino group are hydrogen bonded to the nitro group/chloride ions/water molecule through N–H···O and N–H···Cl hydrogen bonds to form R₂²(8) motifs. In both the compounds, the pyrimidine cations also form base pairs via a pair of N–H···N hydrogen bonds involving the amino group and the unprotonated ring N atom. The crystal structures are further stabilized by N–H···S, O–H···O, C–H···O and C–H···Cl hydrogen bonds.     

Hydrogen Bonding Patterns in Trimethoprimium Cinnamate 1.52 Hydrate

Abstract  

In the title compound, [C₁₄H₁₉N₄O₃ ⁺, C₉H₅ O₂ ⁻, H₂O, O0.52] the asymmetric unit contains a protonated trimethoprim cation and a cinnamate anion and two water molecules. The crystal structure was determined by single crystal X-ray diffraction. This compound crystallized in the triclinic system; space group P−1 with the unit cell parameters a = 10.010(2) ?, b = 10.339(3) ?, c = 13.486(8) ?, α = 105.32(3)°, β = 109.88(3)°, γ = 100.89(3)°, V = 1204.6(10) ?³, Z = 2. The cinnamate group is disordered. The trimethoprim (TMP) molecule is protonated at one of the pyrimidine nitrogen atoms. The carboxylate group of the cinnamate anion interacts with the protonated pyrimidine atom N1 and the 2-amino group via a pair of N–H···O hydrogen bonds, generating the R₂²(8) ring motif. The inversion related TMP cations are paired via N–H···N hydrogen bonds. In addition to the base pairing, the O1W atom bridges the 2-amino and 4-amino groups on either side of the paired bases, resulting in a self complementary DADA array. Two inversion related TMP cations and water molecules (O1W) are linked via N–H···O and O–H···O hydrogen bonds, forming a 22 membered ring with graph-set R₄⁴(22).     

Ordering of the Water Molecule in the Crystal Structure of 2-[3-Methyl-4-(2,2,2-Trifluoroethoxy)-2-Pyridinyl]Methylthio-<Emphasis Type="Italic">1H</Emphasis>-Benzimidazole Hydrate (Lansoprazole Sulphide Hydrate)

Abstract  

Lansoprazole sulphide (2-[3-methyl-4-(2,2,2-trifluoroethoxy)-2-pyridinyl]methylthio-1H-benzimidazole) hydrate crystallizes in the triclinic space group P-1 with two molecules in the asymmetric part of the unit cell. The molecules are almost identical, the normal probability plots show that the differences between them are of statistical nature. The crystal structure is determined mainly by the O–H···N and N–H···O hydrogen bonds; and both symmetry independent molecules create the hydrogen-bonded structures on their own. The common motif is the C₂²(6) chain of molecules along x (A) or y (B), but the interactions between the chains are different: chains of molecules A are joined by O–H···N(pyridine) hydrogen bonds while those of molecules B– by relatively strong O–H···S hydrogen bonds. Additionally, in both cases there are also C–H···S, C–H···π and π–π interactions between the neighbouring molecules. The different intermolecular interactions might be connected with the observed disorder of water molecules in the B-chains. At room temperature the s.o.f.’s of two alternative positions refined at 0.760(17) and 0.240(17). The less-occupied water molecule does not take part in the O–H···S hydrogen bonding. When temperature decreases the importance of this interaction grows, the occupancy of less occupied position becomes smaller and finally, around 150 K the structure becomes fully ordered.

Structural Studies of Two Isoelectronic Tetrakis Isocyano Complexes

Abstract  

Two isoelectronic tetrakis isocyano compounds, tetra(p-isocyanoanisole)nickel(0) and tetra(p-isocyanoanisole)copper(I) hexafluorophosphate were synthesized from nickel bis cyclooctadiene and copper (I) tetra acetonitrile hexafluorophosphate and the isonitrile, respectively, and their structures were determined. The nickel complex crystallizes in the orthorhombic space group P2₁2₁2₁ with a = 9.6709(8), b = 15.2324(13), c = 19.0955(16) ? and Z = 4. The copper salt forms crystals with a tetragonal setting in P4/n with a = b = 15.8206(5), c = 6.5848(4) ? and Z = 2. Both complexes exhibit the approximate tetrahedral coordination environment expected for 18 valence electron complexes with soft σ-donor π-acceptor ligands. Packing in the nickel complex is dominated by weak π–π stacking, C–H···π_phenyl, and C–H···π interactions towards the isonitrile carbon and nitrogen atoms, and several slightly stronger C–H···O interactions. In the copper complex the presence of the PF₆ anion allows for the formation of stronger C–H···F interactions, and these in combination with π–π stacking and C–H···O hydrogen bonds dominate the packing.

Abstract  A single crystal structure determination of the complexes (2,2′-bipyridinium)[MBr₄], M = Zn, Hg and Co, have been carried out. It crystallizes in the monoclinic space group P2₁ /c. The structures consist of alternating stacks of anions and cations. They demonstrate a supramolecularity represented by the inter anion···cation, N–H···Br and C–H···Br interactions. The N–H···Br hydrogen bonding interactions, ca. 3.306(3)–3.213(7) ? and with angles spanning the range 154–156°, tying the MBr₄ anions to the cations. Intra- and interstack anion···anion interactions represented by Br···Br interactions, also exist. All these interactions lead to a 3D-network. Index Abstract

Syntheses and crystal structures of an organometallic thiosemicarbazone and an organometallic enehydrazide

Reactions of ferrocenoylacetone with thiosemicarbazide and isonicotinic acid hydrazide generate an organometallic thiosemicarbazone 1 and enehydrazide 2, respectively. The complexes 1 and 2, which can be formulated as [C₅H₅FeC₅H₄C(O)CH₂C(=NNHCSNH₂)CH₃] and [C₅H₅FeC₅H₄C(O)CH=C(NHNHCOC₅H₄N-4)CH₃], have been characterized by elemental analyses, IR, NMR, UV and were structurally characterized by single-crystal X-ray crystallography. Complex 1 (C₁₅H₁₇FeN₃OS) crystallizes in the monoclinic space group P2₁/c, with lattice constants: a = 13.939(3) ?, b = 8.2600(17) ?, c = 13.176(3) ?, β = 94.83(3)°, V = 1511.7(6) ?³, Z = 4, D _c = 1.508 g cm⁻³, F(000) = 712, R ₁ = 0.0602, wR ₂ = 0.1526. Two intermolecular hydrogen bonds N–H···S (N···S = 3.356(8) and 3.499(7) ?, N–H···S = 168 and 170°) form a chain in the [010] direction. The intermolecular hydrogen bond C–H···O (C···O = 3.432(10) ?, C–H···O = 151°) leads to a [010] double-chain through each unit cell. The intermolecular hydrogen bond C–H···O (C···O = 3.359(10) ?, C–H···O = 173°) makes the [010] double-chain pack along the c axis to result in a two-dimensional network. Complex 2 (C₂₀H₁₉FeN₃O₂) crystallizes in the monoclinic space group P2₁/c, with lattice constants: a = 14.091(2) ?, b = 10.024(2) ?, c = 13.806(2) ?, β = 112.41(2)°, V = 1802.8(6) ?³, Z = 4, D _c = 1.434 g cm⁻³, F(000) = 808, R ₁ = 0.0576, wR ₂ = 0.1593. The strong intramolecular hydrogen bond N–H···O from the enamine N atom and carbonyl O atom stabilizes the enehydrazide. The intermolecular hydrogen bonds N–H···O and C–H···O (N···O = 2.906(6) ?, N–H···O = 155° C···O = 3.364(6) ?, C–H···O = 153°) generate a [010] chain. The intermolecular hydrogen bond N–H···O (N···O = 2.989(6) ?, N–H···O = 128°) forms a [010] double-chain through each unit cell. The π···π stacking interation involving the pyridyl groups makes the [010] double-chain pack along the c axis to lead to a two-dimensional network.

Abstract  

Reactions of 1,1′-ferrocenedicarboxylic chloride with 2-aminopyrimidine and 2-aminopyrazine produce organometallic dicarboximides I and II, respectively. They crystallize in space groups F dd2 and P2₁/c, respectively. The molecules of I lying on twofold rotation axes are linked into a B-faced sheet by a C–H···O=C hydrogen bond [H····O = 2.46, C···O = 3.163(7) ? and C–H···O = 132°]. The sheets are linked into a layered structure by two types of weak C–H···O=C hydrogen bonds [H···O = 2.71, C···O = 3.340(8) ? and C–H···O = 126°; H···O = 2.69, C···O = 3.303(10) ? and C–H···O = 124°]. The molecules of II are linked into a centrosymmetric R ₂²(12) dimer by a C–H···O hydrogen bond [H···O = 2.40, C···O = 3.321(10) ? and C–H···O = 172°]. The dimers are further packed along the a axis by a C–H···O hydrogen bond [H···O = 2.69, C···O = 3.416(9) ? and C–H···O = 135°] to give an [100] double-chain. The double-chain is packed in the [010] direction by a C–H···O=C hydrogen bond [H···O = 2.69, C···O = 3.532(9) ? and C–H···O = 150°]. Further the intermolecular C–H···N hydrogen bond involving the cyclopentadienyl group as a hydrogen-bond donor and pyrazine N atom as an acceptor [H···O = 2.71, C···N = 3.536(10) ? and C–H···N = 148°] leads to a three-dimensional framework structure.

Synthesis and Crystal Structure of a Fe(III) Complex with an Isonicotinyl Hydrazone Ligand, [Fe(N-Isonicotinamidosalicylaldimine)Cl<Subscript>2</Subscript>]

Abstract  

A new complex [Fe(N-isonicotinamidosalicylaldimine)Cl₂] has been synthesized by template reaction at room temperature and structurally characterized by X-ray single-crystal analysis. The complex crystallizes in triclinic crystal system, Pī space group, a = 7.273(6) ?, b = 10.015(8) ?, c = 10.479(8) ?, α = 71.067(10)°, β = 89.964(11)°, γ = 75.528(10)°, V = 696.4(9) ?³ and Z = 2. The coordination geometry around the Fe(III) ion is a distorted trigonal bipyramid with a O₂N₁Cl₂ donor set. In the crystal structure, N–H···Cl, C–H···O and C–H···Cl hydrogen bonds and π···π stacking interactions involving aromatic and unclosed π-systems link the molecules to form supramolecular double layers.
