The crystal structures of (rac)- and (R)-4-phenyl-1,3-oxazolidine-2-thione (4-POT) have been determined by X-ray diffraction. The structure of (rac)-4-POT is monoclinic P2₁/n with a = 11.9096(9) Å, b = 5.9523(6) Å, c = 12.3563(8) Å, = 91.054(6)°, V = 875.8(1) ų, and Z = 4.

(rac)-4-POT and (R)-4-POT crystals are shown to have different hydrogen-bonding patterns. In the racemic crystals, the enantiomeric (R)- and (S)-4-POT molecules are connected to form a cyclic dimer via the N–H S hydrogen bond of the cis thioamide moiety [N Sⁱ 3.438(2) Å, N–H Sⁱ 176(2)° symmetry code: (i) 1 – x, 1 – y, 1 – z].

Observed difference of 46°C in the melting points between the (rac)-4-POT and (R)-4-POT crystals is correlated with difference in the crystal packing. Vibrational spectra of (rac)- and (R)-4-POT crystals are discussed both in the solid state and in solution.

The title compound 2-dimethylamino-4-ethoxycarbonylmethoxy-6-phenyl-1,3,5-triazine has been synthesized by a new reaction, in which the solvent N,N-dimethylformamide involves. Its structure was determined by X-ray single crystal diffraction.

The distance of N(4) C(2) (1.339 Å) is much shorter than the length of normal C N (1.47 Å) and very close to that of C-N (1.33 Å), which is indicative of the significant double bond character.     

The chemistry of the “insoluble red woods.” Part 15. The crystal structures of 7-benzyloxy-6,2′,3′,4′-tetramethoxy- and 2,6,7,2′,3′,4′-hexamethoxy-isoflav-3-ene

The reaction of 7-benzyloxy-6,2,3,4-tetramethoxyisoflavylium perchlorate with 1-(2,4-dimethoxyphenyl)-3-(3,4-dimethoxyphenyl)-prop-l-ene and of 6,7,2,3,4-pentamethoxyisoflavylium perchlorate with the same propene yielded respectively 7-benzyloxy-6,2,3,4-tetramethoxyisoflav-3-ene (5) and 2,6,7,2,3,4-hexamethoxyisoflav-3-ene (7) whose structures have been established by X-ray crystallography. Crystals of (5) are monoclinic, space groupP2₁/a (No. 14) with four molecules in a unit cell of dimensionsa=8.528(2),b=13.294(3),c=19.629(4) Å,=99.92(2)°. Crystals of (7) are also monoclinic, space groupC2/c (No. 15) with eight molecules in a unit cell of dimensionsa=28.088(3),b=10.662(3),c=12.869(1) Å,=97.32(1)°. Both structures were solved by direct methods and refined by full-matrix least-squares calculations to finalR values of 0.053 and 0.041 for 1673 and 1424 observed data for (5) and (7) respectively. The molecular dimensions are in accord with accepted values.For Part 14 see Whalley, W. B., Ferguson, G., and Khan, M. A., (1980)J. Chem. Res. (M), 2219.
