Dihydrogen Phosphate and Hydrogen Sulphate of 1,4-Dimethyl-1,4-diazabicyclo[2.2.2]octane-1,4-diium: Crystal Structures, Hydrogen Bonding and Infrared Spectra

Abstract  

The crystal structures of the title compounds consist of 1,4-dimethyl-1,4-diazabicyclo[2.2.2]octane-1,4-diium cation [C₈H₁₈N₂]²⁺ and [H₂PO₄]⁻ or [HSO₄]⁻ anions. Both crystal structures are monoclinic, the structure of the dihydrogen phosphate (I) is non-centrosymmetric (P2₁) with a = 6.4090(2) ?, b = 13.6920(5) ?, c = 7.6140(3) ?, β = 94.620(2)°, V = 665.97(4) ?³, Z = 2; whereas the unit cell of the hydrogen sulphate (II) is centrosymmetric (P2₁/c) with a = 13.8460(2) ?, b = 12.6610(2) ?, c = 8.0360(2) ?, β = 99.5800(12)°, V = 1389.10(5) ?³, Z = 4. Both the structures are formed by the different bonding patterns of the anions interlinked by strong and moderate O–H···O hydrogen bonds. While the structure of (I) consists of a two-dimensional network of the hydrogen bonded dihydrogen phosphates, the infinite chains of the hydrogen bonded hydrogen sulphates are the basic building unit of the structure (II). In addition to the dominant electrostatic interaction the divalent cations stabilize themselves in the structures by forming several C–H···O hydrogen bonds to the oxygen atoms of the anions. The IR spectra of both the compounds are strongly affected by the hydrogen bonds whose influence on OH stretching vibrations is analysed by means of the DFT calculations in the solid state.

Single Crystal XRD Structure Determination and Analysis of Bis(2,9-Dimethyl-1,10-Phenanthroline-κ2N,N′)(Sulfato-κ2O,O′)Nickel(II), Hydrate (NiNeo2SO4·H2O; Neo: 2,9-Dimethyl-1,10-Phenanthroline)

Abstract  

The title compound is monomeric with a Ni(II) hexacoordinated center. The coordination sphere is formed with four nitrogens from two neocuproine molecules and two oxygens from a sulfate ion that acts as a bidentate ligand. A water molecule completes the formula with an important role in the stabilization of the structure through the formation of O_W–H···O_S bridges, in which it acts as a donor and interactions of the type C_ar–H···O_W and C_Met–H···O_W, where it is an acceptor group (W: water; S: sulfate; ar: arene; Met: methyl). The compound is monoclinic, space group P2₁ /c with a = 14.4829(4) ?, b = 14.4563(4) ?, c = 12.1559(3) ?, β = 94.407(1)°, V = 2,537.55(12) ?³ and Z = 4. The structure was solved by direct methods with a conventional R (on F) = 0.0359 for 4841 reflexions with Fo > 4σ(Fo). Three levels of super-structural hierarchy can be identified in the crystal construction: (1) the primary structure corresponding to the molecular skeletons of their building blocks, the isolated complex itself and the water molecule, (2) an 1D supramolecular array that form chains through a non-covalent polymerization via interactions O_W–H···O_S, C_ar–H···O_W, C_ar–H···O_S and C_Met–H···O_W and (3) finally the 3D macroscopic conglomerate formed through inter-chains interactions C_ar–H···O_W, C_ar–H···O_S, C_Met–H···ar and offset stacked arene–arene.

Abstract  

The title compound, C₂₀H₁₇NO, crystallizes in the orthorhombic P2₁2₁2₁ space group with unit cell parameters a = 7.6903(7) ?, b = 18.979(2) ?, c = 19.753(2) ?, with two crystallographically independent molecules in the asymmetric unit, which differ from one another in the slight rotation of the phenyl ring; this allows the formation of three internal hydrogen bonds, two of the type C–H···N and one of the type C–H···O, in one of the molecules, in contrast with only two of the type C–H···N in the other. The compound is rich in aromatic π rings and therefore the crystal packing is entirely dominated by cohesive weak C–H···π interactions among neighboring molecules producing an efficient packing with 71.2% of occupied space.

Abstract  The structure of the title compound (C₁₇H₁₅N₃O₄S)₂ the schiff base, bis(N-(5-methyl-3-isoxazolyl)-4-[(2-hydroxy benzylidene)-amino]) benzene sulfonamide was elucidated by H¹, C¹³ NMR, UV–VIS and IR spectroscopic techniques. The X-ray structure was determined in order to establish the conformation of the molecule. The compound crystallizes in the triclinic space group P-1, with a = 11.419(1), b = 11.426(0), c = 13.316(1) ?, α = 71.94(2), β = 89.79(1), γ = 89.14(2)° and Z = 4. Two benzene rings and azomethine group are practically coplanar, as a result of intramolecular hydrogen bonds involving the hydroxy O atom and azomethine N atom. The component species further interact via N–H···N and C–H···O hydrogen bonds and π–π stacking interactions. Index Abstract  The title compound (C₁₇H₁₅N₃O₄S)₂, Schiff base, bis(N-(5-methyl-3-isoxazolyl)-4-[(2-hydroxy benzylidene)-amino]) benzene sulfonamide was synthesized by the condensation of 4-amino-N-(5-methyl-3-isoxazolyl) benzene sulfonamide (SMZ) and 2-hydroxy benzaldehyde (SA). Its structure was confirmed by single crystal X-ray diffraction analysis.
