Hydrogen‐bonded dimers in 3‐amino‐4‐anilino‐1H‐isochromen‐1‐one and a hydrogen‐bonded sheet in 3‐amino‐4‐[methyl(phenyl)amino]‐1H‐isochromen‐1‐one

The molecules of 3‐amino‐4‐anilino‐1H‐isochromen‐1‐one, C₁₅H₁₂N₂O₂, (I), and 3‐amino‐4‐[methyl(phenyl)amino]‐1H‐isochromen‐1‐one, C₁₆H₁₄N₂O₂, (II), adopt very similar conformations, with the substituted amino group PhNR, where R = H in (I) and R = Me in (II), almost orthogonal to the adjacent heterocyclic ring.

Redetermination of 6‐amino‐5‐formyl‐1,3‐dimethyluracil monohydrate at 120 K: a polarized molecular structure and two interwoven hydrogen‐bonded frameworks

The title compound [systematic name: 6‐amino‐5‐formyl‐1,3‐dimethylpyrimidine‐2,4(1H,3H)‐dione monohydrate], C₇H₉N₃O₃·H₂O, has been reexamined at 120 K. The improved precision of the intramolecular dimensions provides evidence for a polarized molecular–electronic structure, and the molecular components are linked by one N—H...O and two O—H...O hydrogen bonds into two interwoven three‐dimensional frameworks, which are weakly linked by the longer component of a three‐centre N—H...(O)₂ hydrogen bond.     

Hydrogen bonding in nitroaniline analogues: hydrogen‐bonded sheets in 2‐amino‐4,6‐dimethoxy‐5‐nitropyrimidine and π‐stacked hydrogen‐bonded sheets in 4‐amino‐2,6‐dimethoxy‐5‐nitropyrimidine

In 2‐amino‐4,6‐di­methoxy‐5‐nitro­pyrimidine, C₆H₈N₄O₄, the mol­ecules are linked by one N—H⋯N and one N—H⋯O hydrogen bond to form sheets built from alternating R(8) and R(32) rings. In isomeric 4‐amino‐2,6‐di­methoxy‐5‐nitro­pyrimidine, C₆H₈N₄O₄, which crystallizes with Z′ = 2 in P, the two independent mol­ecules are linked into a dimer by two independent N—H⋯N hydrogen bonds. These dimers are linked into sheets by a combination of two‐centre C—H⋯O and three‐centre C—H⋯(O)₂ hydrogen bonds, and the sheets are further linked by two independent aromatic π–π‐stacking interactions to form a three‐dimensional structure.     

Cocrystals of 6‐propyl‐2‐thiouracil: N—H...O versus N—H...S hydrogen bonds

In order to investigate the relative stability of N—H...O and N—H...S hydrogen bonds, we cocrystallized the antithyroid drug 6‐propyl‐2‐thiouracil with two complementary heterocycles. In the cocrystal pyrimidin‐2‐amine–6‐propyl‐2‐thiouracil (1/2), C₄H₅N₃·2C₇H₁₀N₂OS, (I), the `base pair' is connected by one N—H...S and one N—H...N hydrogen bond. Homodimers of 6‐propyl‐2‐thiouracil linked by two N—H...S hydrogen bonds are observed in the cocrystal N‐(6‐acetamidopyridin‐2‐yl)acetamide–6‐propyl‐2‐thiouracil (1/2), C₉H₁₁N₃O₂·2C₇H₁₀N₂OS, (II). The crystal structure of 6‐propyl‐2‐thiouracil itself, C₇H₁₀N₂OS, (III), is stabilized by pairwise N—H...O and N—H...S hydrogen bonds. In all three structures, N—H...S hydrogen bonds occur only within R₂²(8) patterns, whereas N—H...O hydrogen bonds tend to connect the homo‐ and heterodimers into extended networks. In agreement with related structures, the hydrogen‐bonding capability of C=O and C=S groups seems to be comparable.     

Six closely related 4,6‐disubstituted 2‐amino‐5‐formylpyrimidines: different ring conformations,polarized electronic structures,and hydrogen‐bonded assembly in zero,one, two and three dimensions

The bond lengths in each of (I)–(VI) provide evidence for significant polarization of the electronic structure. The molecules of (I) are linked by paired N—H...N hydrogen bonds to form isolated dimeric aggregates, and those of (III) are linked by a combination of N—H...N and N—H...O hydrogen bonds into a chain of edge‐fused rings. In the structure of (IV), molecules are linked into sheets by means of two hydrogen bonds, both of N—H...O type, in the structure of (V) by three hydrogen bonds, two of N—H...N type and one of C—H...O type, and in the structure of (VI) by four hydrogen bonds, all of N—H...O type. Molecules of (II) are linked into a three‐dimensional framework structure by a combination of three N—H...O hydrogen bonds and one C—H...O hydrogen bond.     

2‐Ethyl‐1‐[5‐(4‐methylphenyl)pyrazol‐3‐yl]‐3‐(thiophene‐2‐carbonyl)isothiourea: molecular ribbons containing three types of hydrogen‐bonded ring

The title compound, C₁₈H₁₈N₄OS₂, was prepared by reaction of S,S‐diethyl 2‐thenoylimidodithiocarbonate with 5‐amino‐3‐(4‐methylphenyl)‐1H‐pyrazole using microwave irradiation under solvent‐free conditions. In the molecule, the thiophene unit is disordered over two sets of atomic sites, with occupancies of 0.814 (4) and 0.186 (4), and the bonded distances provide evidence for polarization in the acylthiourea fragment and for aromatic type delocalization in the pyrazole ring. An intramolecular N—H...O hydrogen bond is present, forming an S(6) motif, and molecules are linked by N—H...O and N—H...N hydrogen bonds to form a ribbon in which centrosymmetric R₂²(4) rings, built from N—H...O hydrogen bonds and flanked by inversion‐related pairs of S(6) rings, alternate with centrosymmetric R₂²(6) rings built from N—H...N hydrogen bonds.

The intramolecular dimensions of the title compound, C₁₄H₁₂N₂O, provide evidence for a polarized electronic structure. The molecule, which is almost completely planar, contains an intramolecular N—H...O hydrogen bond, and the molecules are linked by a combination of N—H...N, C—H...O and C—H...π(arene) hydrogen bonds to form a three‐dimensional framework structure.     

Three‐dimensional hydrogen‐bonded framework structures in flunarizinium nicotinate and flunarizinediium bis(4‐toluenesulfonate) dihydrate

The structures of two salts of flunarizine, namely 1‐bis[(4‐fluorophenyl)methyl]‐4‐[(2E)‐3‐phenylprop‐2‐en‐1‐yl]piperazine, C₂₆H₂₆F₂N₂, are reported. In flunarizinium nicotinate {systematic name: 4‐bis[(4‐fluorophenyl)methyl]‐1‐[(2E)‐3‐phenylprop‐2‐en‐1‐yl]piperazin‐1‐ium pyridine‐3‐carboxylate}, C₂₆H₂₇F₂N₂⁺·C₆H₄NO₂⁻, (I), the two ionic components are linked by a short charge‐assisted N—H...O hydrogen bond. The ion pairs are linked into a three‐dimensional framework structure by three independent C—H...O hydrogen bonds, augmented by C—H...π(arene) hydrogen bonds and an aromatic π–π stacking interaction. In flunarizinediium bis(4‐toluenesulfonate) dihydrate {systematic name: 1‐[bis(4‐fluorophenyl)methyl]‐4‐[(2E)‐3‐phenylprop‐2‐en‐1‐yl]piperazine‐1,4‐diium bis(4‐methylbenzenesulfonate) dihydrate}, C₂₆H₂₈F₂N₂²⁺·2C₇H₇O₃S⁻·2H₂O, (II), one of the anions is disordered over two sites with occupancies of 0.832 (6) and 0.168 (6). The five independent components are linked into ribbons by two independent N—H...O hydrogen bonds and four independent O—H...O hydrogen bonds, and these ribbons are linked to form a three‐dimensional framework by two independent C—H...O hydrogen bonds, but C—H...π(arene) hydrogen bonds and aromatic π–π stacking interactions are absent from the structure of (II). Comparisons are made with some related structures.     

Hydrogen‐bonded chains of rings in 1‐(4‐chloroanilinomethyl)‐5‐(4‐chlorophenyl)‐1,3,5‐triazinane‐2‐thione and hydrogen‐bonded sheets in 1‐anilinomethyl‐5‐phenyl‐1,3,5‐triazinane‐2‐thione

In 1‐(4‐chloroanilinomethyl)‐5‐(4‐chlorophenyl)‐1,3,5‐triazinane‐2‐thione, C₁₆H₁₆Cl₂N₄S, there are two independent molecules in the asymmetric unit which form inversion dimers via two weak N—H...S hydrogen bonds. The dimers are then linked into C(9)C(14) chains by a C—H...S hydrogen bond and a C—H...Cl contact. In 1‐(anilinomethyl)‐5‐phenyl‐1,3,5‐triazinane‐2‐thione, C₁₆H₁₈N₄S, molecules are linked into complex sheets via a combination of N—H...S and C—H...π hydrogen bonds.     

Hydrogen‐bonded sheet structures in methyl 4‐(4‐chloroanilino)‐3‐nitrobenzoate and methyl 1‐benzyl‐2‐(4‐chlorophenyl)‐1H‐benzimidazole‐5‐carboxylate

In methyl 4‐(4‐chloroanilino)‐3‐nitrobenzoate, C₁₄H₁₁ClN₂O₄, (I), there is an intramolecular N—H...O hydrogen bond and the intramolecular distances provide evidence for electronic polarization of the o‐quinonoid type. The molecules are linked into sheets built from N—H...O, C—H...O and C—H...π(arene) hydrogen bonds, together with an aromatic π–π stacking interaction. The molecules of methyl 1‐benzyl‐2‐(4‐chlorophenyl)‐1H‐benzimidazole‐5‐carboxylate, C₂₂H₁₇ClN₂O₂, (II), are also linked into sheets, this time by a combination of C—H...π(arene) hydrogen bonds and aromatic π–π stacking interactions.     

4‐Amino‐5‐(2‐hydroxy‐4,4‐di­methyl‐6‐oxo­cyclo­hexenyl­methyl)‐1‐methyl‐2‐(methyl­sulfanyl)­pyrimidin‐6(1H)‐one: hydrogen‐bonded chains are π‐stacked in pairs

Molecules of the title compound, C₁₅H₂₁N₃O₃S, have a markedly polarized electronic structure; the carbocyclic ring adopts an envelope conformation and the overall molecular conformation appears to be controlled by two intramolecular hydrogen bonds, one each of the O—H⋯O and N—H⋯O types. The mol­ecules are linked into C(6) chains by an intermol­ecular N—H⋯O hydrogen bond, and pairs of these hydrogen‐bonded chains are linked by a π–π stacking interaction.     

Five pseudopolymorphs of 6‐amino‐2‐thiouracil: absence of N—H...S hydrogen bonds

In order to study the preferred hydrogen‐bonding pattern of 6‐amino‐2‐thiouracil, C₄H₅N₃OS, (I), crystallization experiments yielded five different pseudopolymorphs of (I), namely the dimethylformamide disolvate, C₄H₅N₃OS·2C₃H₇NO, (Ia), the dimethylacetamide monosolvate, C₄H₅N₃OS·C₄H₉NO, (Ib), the dimethylacetamide sesquisolvate, C₄H₅N₃OS·1.5C₄H₉NO, (Ic), and two different 1‐methylpyrrolidin‐2‐one sesquisolvates, C₄H₅N₃OS·1.5C₅H₉NO, (Id) and (Ie). All structures contain R₂¹(6) N—H...O hydrogen‐bond motifs. In the latter four structures, additional R₂²(8) N—H...O hydrogen‐bond motifs are present stabilizing homodimers of (I). No type of hydrogen bond other than N—H...O is observed. According to a search of the Cambridge Structural Database, most 2‐thiouracil derivatives form homodimers stabilized by an R₂²(8) hydrogen‐bonding pattern, with (i) only N—H...O, (ii) only N—H...S or (iii) alternating pairs of N—H...O and N—H...S hydrogen bonds.     

4,6‐Diamino‐2‐morpholino‐5‐nitrosopyrimidine: a polarized molecular structure within hydrogen‐bonded sheets

In the title compound, C₈H₁₂N₆O₂, the molecular dimensions provide evidence for significant polarization of the electronic structure. There is an intramolecular N—H...N hydrogen bond, and the molecules are linked into complex sheets by a combination of two‐centre hydrogen bonds, one each of the N—H...N and N—H...O types, and a three‐centre N—H...(N,O) hydrogen bond.     

Hydrogen‐bonded sheet structures in neutral,anionic and hydrated 6‐amino‐2‐(morpholin‐4‐yl)‐5‐nitrosopyrimidines

In each of 6‐amino‐3‐methyl‐2‐(morpholin‐4‐yl)‐5‐nitrosopyrimidin‐4(3H)‐one, C₉H₁₃N₅O₃, (I), morpholin‐4‐ium 4‐amino‐2‐(morpholin‐4‐yl)‐5‐nitroso‐6‐oxo‐1,6‐dihydropyrimidin‐1‐ide, C₄H₁₀NO⁺·C₈H₁₀N₅O₃⁻, (II), and 6‐amino‐2‐(morpholin‐4‐yl)‐5‐nitrosopyrimidin‐4(3H)‐one hemihydrate, C₈H₁₁N₅O₃·0.5H₂O, (III), the bond distances within the pyrimidine components are consistent with significant electronic polarization, which is most marked in (II) and least marked in (I). Despite the high level of substitution, the pyrimidine rings are all effectively planar, and in each of the pyrimidine components, there are intramolecular N—H...O hydrogen bonds. In each compound, the organic components are linked by multiple N—H...O hydrogen bonds to form sheets of widely differing construction, and in compound (III) adjacent sheets are linked by the water molecules, so forming a three‐dimensional hydrogen‐bonded framework. This study also contains the first direct geometric comparison between the electronic polarization in a neutral aminonitrosopyrimidine and that in its ring‐deprotonated conjugate anion in a metal‐free environment.

The title structures, both C₁₀H₁₀N₄O, are substitutional isomers. The N—N bond lengths are longer and the C=N bond lengths are shorter by ca 0.025 Å than the respective average values in the C=N—N=C group of asymmetric triazines; the assessed respective bond orders are 1.3 and 1.7.

The structures differ in their mol­ecular stacking and the hydrogen‐bonding patterns.     

2‐Iodo‐N‐(3‐nitrobenzyl)aniline and 3‐iodo‐N‐(3‐nitrobenzyl)aniline exhibit entirely different patterns of supramolecular aggregation

In 2‐iodo‐N‐(3‐nitro­benzyl)­aniline, C₁₃H₁₁IN₂O₂, the mol­ecules are linked into a three‐dimensional structure by a combination of C—H?O hydrogen bonds, iodo–nitro interactions and aromatic π–π‐stacking interactions, but N—H?O and C—H?π(arene) hydrogen bonds are absent. In the isomeric 3‐iodo‐N‐(3‐nitro­benzyl)­aniline, a two‐dimensional array is generated by a combination of N—H?O, C—H?O and C—H?π(arene) hydrogen bonds, but iodo–nitro interactions and aromatic π–π‐stacking interactions are both absent.
