6‐Phenyl‐3‐(4‐pyrid­yl)‐1,2,4‐triazolo[3,4‐b][1,3,4]thia­diazole

The title compound, C₁₄H₉N₅S, has been synthesized and characterized both spectroscopically and structurally. The triazolo–thia­diazole system, the pyridine ring and the phenyl ring are all planar. The plane of the triazolo–thia­diazole system forms dihedral angles of 1.53 (13) and 7.55 (12)° with the planes of the pyridine and phenyl rings, respectively. In the mol­ecule, there are two intra­molecular inter­actions of types C—H⋯N and C—H⋯S. Inter­molecular C—H⋯N inter­actions involving a phenyl CH group and a triazole N atom lead to the formation of a one‐dimensional chain. In the crystal structure, two types of π–π inter­actions affect the packing of the mol­ecules. In addition, there are inter­molecular non‐bonded S⋯N contacts of 2.870 (2) Å, which may cause steric hindrance.     

5‐Phen­yl‐1,3,4‐thia­diazol‐2‐yl 2,3,4,6‐tetra­‐O‐acet­yl‐1‐thio‐β‐d‐glucopyran­oside

The structure of the title compound, C₂₂H₂₄N₂O₉S₂, is described. This compound consists of a sugar ring and a heterocyclic base linked unusually by an S atom. The sugar is in a ⁴C₁ chair conformation and forms dihedral angles of 49.54 (4) and 33.42 (5)° with the thia­diazole and phen­yl rings, respectively. The S atom occupies an equatorial position of the sugar ring and lies 1.807 (2) Å out of the corresponding mean plane.     

4,5‐Di­hydro‐3‐methyl‐5‐(4‐methyl­phenyl)‐1H‐pyrazole‐1‐carboxamidinium acetate acetone hemisolvate

The X‐ray structure analysis of the unexpected product of the reaction between 4‐(4‐methyl­phenyl)­but‐3‐en‐2‐one and amino­guanidine revealed the title compound, C₁₂H₁₇N₄⁺·C₂H₃O₂^?·0.5C₃H₆O, consisting of a protonated amidine moiety joined to a substituted pyrazoline ring at the N1 atom. The amidine group is protonated and the positive charge is delocalized over the three C—N bonds in a similar manner to that found in guanidinium salts. The amidinium moiety of the cation is linked to the acetate anions through four N—H?O hydrogen bonds, with N?O distances of 2.749 (4), 2.848 (4), 2.904 (4) and 2.911 (4) Å. The pyrazoline ring adopts a flattened envelope conformation and the substituted phenyl ring is oriented perpendicular to the attached heterocycle. The acetone solvate molecule lies across a twofold rotation axis.     

1,4‐Bis(2‐benzimidazolyl)­benzene

The title compound, C₂₀H₁₄N₄, lies about an inversion centre and the benz­imidazole moiety and the phenyl ring are twisted by 30.9 (1)°. The benz­imidazole moiety is completely planar, with a maximum deviation of 0.009 (2) Å. Intermolecular N—­H?N hydrogen bonds give rise to a layered structure, with the layers stacked by van der Waals interactions.     

N‐{4‐Bromo‐2‐[(3‐bromo‐1‐phenylsulfonyl‐1H‐indol‐2‐yl)methyl]‐5‐methoxyphenyl}acetamide

In the title compound, C₂₄H₂₀Br₂N₂O₄S, the indole ring system is planar and the S atom has a distorted tetrahedral configuration. The sulfonyl‐bound phenyl ring is orthogonal to the indole ring system and the conformation of the phenyl­sulfonyl substituent with respect to the indole moiety is influenced by intramolecular C—H⃛O hydrogen bonds involving the two sulfonyl O atoms. The mean plane through the acetyl­amido group makes a dihedral angle of 57.0 (1)° with the phenyl ring of the benzyl moiety. In the crystal, glide‐related mol­ecules are linked together by N—H⃛O hydrogen bonds and C—H⃛π interactions to form molecular chains, which extend through the crystal. Inversion‐related chains are interlinked by C—H⃛π interactions to form molecular layers parallel to the bc plane. These layers are interconnected through π–π interactions involving the five‐ and six‐membered rings of the indole moiety.     

Ethyl 2‐[N‐(tert‐butyl­oxy­carbonyl)‐l‐alanyl­amino]‐4‐methyl‐1,3‐thia­zole‐5‐carboxyl­ate reveals a trans orientation of the preceding amide N—H with respect to the thia­zole‐ring sulfur

The title mol­ecule, C₁₅H₂₃N₃O₅S, was prepared as a synthetic precursor to 4‐methyl­thia­zole‐based DNA minor groove binders which would bear chiral amino acids in the sequence. The crystallographic evidence presented herein shows that the aromatic amide NH group preceding the thia­zole ring points away from the direction of sulfur. The mol­ecule is biplanar, with the dihedral angle between the N‐terminus peptide moiety and the thia­zole‐containing plane being 49.7 (5)°, with a bend at the Cα carbon.     

5‐Amino‐4‐(4‐diethyl­amino­phenyl)‐2‐(4‐hydroxy­phenyl)‐7‐(pyrrolidin‐1‐yl)‐1,6‐naphthyridine‐8‐carbo­nitrile

In the title compound, C₂₉H₃₀N₆O, the naphthyridine moiety is planar with a dihedral angle between the fused rings of 1.9 (1)°. The phenol ring is nearly coplanar, while the diethyl­amino­phenyl substituent is orthogonal to the central naphthyridine ring and the pyrrolidine ring makes an angle of 11.2 (1)° with it. The O atom of the hydroxy substituent is coplanar with the phenyl ring to which it is attached. The molecular structure is stabilized by a C—H?N‐type intramolecular hydrogen bond and the packing is stabilized by intermolecular C—H?π, O—H?N and N—H?O hydrogen bonds.     

1,3‐Benzothia­zole‐6‐carboxamidinium chloride dihydrate

The title compound, C₈H₈N₃S⁺·Cl⁻·2H₂O, has been synthesized and characterized both spectroscopically and structurally. The structure consists of 1,3‐benzothia­zole‐6‐carboxamidinium cations, chloride anions and water mol­ecules, all interconnected by hydrogen bonds into a three‐dimensional network. The 1,3‐benzo­thia­zole moiety is inclined to the 6‐­amidine group by 36.71 (9)°.     

Dimorphism in (2Z)‐2‐benzyl­idene‐N,7‐dimethyl‐3‐oxo‐5‐phenyl‐2,3‐dihydro‐5H‐1,3‐thia­zolo[3,2‐a]pyrimidine‐6‐carboxamide

The title compound, C₂₂H₁₉N₃O₂S, crystallizes in two polymorphic forms having the same space group, viz. P, with Z′ = 2 and Z′ = 1. In both polymorphs, the planar thia­zole ring is fused cis with the dihydro­pyrimidine ring, the carbamoyl group is in an extended conformation with an anti­clinal orientation with respect to the pyrimidine ring, and the phenyl ring is attached to the pyrimidine ring approximately at a right angle. The two polymorphs have different inter­planar angles between the phenyl and thia­zole rings. The mol­ecules are linked by N—H⋯O and C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds.     

Flat versus twisted rotamers of 2,4‐­disubstituted thiazoles: the effect of intermolecular hydrogen bonds

In the title compounds, 2‐amino‐4‐(2‐chloro‐4,5‐di­methoxy­phenyl)‐1,3‐thia­zole, C₁₁H₁₁ClN₂O₂S, (I), and 4‐(2‐chloro‐4,5‐di­methoxy­phenyl)‐2‐methyl‐1,3‐thia­zole, C₁₂H₁₂ClNO₂S, (II), the dihedral angles between the thia­zole moiety and the chloro­aryl group are 51.61 (10) and 8.44 (14)°, respectively. This difference is a consequence of intermolecular hydrogen bonds forcing the stabilization of a twisted rotamer in (I). Substitution of the amino function by a methyl group precludes these contacts, giving a flat rotamer in (II).     

Derivatives of 4‐(2‐hydro­xy­lphenyl)‐2‐phenyl‐2,3‐di­hydro‐1,5‐benzothiazepine

In the structures of 2‐(4‐chloro­phenyl)‐4‐(2‐hydroxyphenyl)‐2,3‐di­hydro‐1,5‐benzo­thia­zepine, C₂₁H₁₆ClNOS, 4‐(2‐hy­droxy­phenyl)‐2‐(4‐tolyl)‐2,3‐di­hydro‐1,5‐ben­zo­thia­zepine, C₂₂H₁₉NOS, and 4‐(2‐hydroxyphenyl)‐2‐(3‐methoxy­phenyl)‐2,3‐di­hydro‐1,5‐benzo­thia­zepine, C₂₂H₁₉NO₂S, the central seven‐membered heterocyclic rings adopt twist‐boat conformations in which the N atoms are involved in strong intramolecular hydrogen bonds with the hydroxyl H atoms, resulting in six‐membered rings.     

(E)‐2‐[2‐(1‐Naphthyl)­vinyl]‐3‐tosyl‐2,3‐di­hydro‐1,3‐benzo­thia­zole

The title compound, C₂₆H₂₁NO₂S₂, which consists of a benzo­thia­zole skeleton with α‐naphthyl­vinyl and tosyl groups at positions 2 and 3, respectively, was prepared by palladium–copper‐catalyzed heteroannulation. The E configuration of the mol­ecule about the vinyl C=C bond is established by the benzothiazole–naphthyl C—C—C—C torsion angle of 177.5 (4)°. The five‐membered heterocyclic ring adopts an envelope conformation with the Csp³ atom 0.380 (6) Å from the C₂NS plane. The two S—C [1.751 (4) and 1.838 (4) Å] and two N—C [1.426 (5) and 1.482 (5) Å] bond lengths in the thia­zole ring differ significantly.     

Unexpected dipivaloyl­ation of 9‐li­thia­ted fluorene: formation of 1‐(fluoren‐9‐yl­idene)‐2,2‐di­methyl­propyl pivalate

Treatment of 9‐li­thia­ted fluorene with pivaloyl chloride provided ap‐9‐pivaloyl­fluorene, (1), the major product, and a minor product ultimately identified as the title compound, C₂₃H₂₆O₂, (2). The latter was also formed directly, but slowly, from 9‐li­thia­ted‐(1) treated with pivaloyl chloride. Although (1) exists exclusively as its less sterically restricted ap rotamer, its sp²‐hybridized anion sterically impedes reaction at the 9‐position from either face. While 9‐li­thia­ted‐(1) is exclusively, but slowly, 9‐methyl­ated with methyl iodide, reaction with pivaloyl chloride, also slow, leads only to the O‐acyl­ated product, (2). The protons of the tert‐butyl‐C=C moiety approach a proton on the fluorene ring to well within the sum of their van der Waals radii, resulting in significant molecular compression, strain and distortion. For example, distortion in the moiety C=C(O)(C) is exhibited by the enlargement of C=C—C angle to 130.6 (2)° at the expense of the corresponding `equivalent' C=C—O angle, which is compressed to 116.46 (19)°.     

Ethyl β‐{2‐[4‐(dimethylamino)phenyliminomethyl]‐1‐(phenylsulfonyl)indol‐3‐yl}acrylate

The title compound, C₂₈H₂₇N₃O₄S, crystallizes in the centrosymmetric space group P2₁/n, with one mol­ecule in the asymmetric unit. In the indole ring, the dihedral angle between the fused rings is 3.6 (1)°. The phenyl ring of the sulfonyl substituent makes a dihedral angle of 79.2 (1)° with the best plane of the indole moiety. The phenyl ring of the di­methyl­amino­phenyl group is orthogonal to the phenyl ring of the phenyl­sulfonyl group. The dihedral angle formed by the weighted least‐squares planes through the pyrrole ring and the phenyl ring of the di­methyl­amino­phenyl group is 7.8 (1)°. The molecular structure is stabilized by C—H?O and C—H?N interactions.     

[5‐Benzyl‐3‐phenyl‐2‐(2‐pyridyl‐κN)thiazolidin‐4‐one‐κS]dichloropalladium(II)

The palladium(II) centre in the title compound, [PdCl₂(C₂₁H₁₈N₂OS)], is coordinated to the pyridyl N atom and to the thia­zolidinone S atom of the 5‐benzyl‐3‐phenyl‐2‐(2‐pyridyl)­thia­zolidin‐4‐one ligand, resulting in a five‐membered chelate ring. Two cis‐chloro ligands complete the square‐planar coordination environment of the metal. Although the geometry at the Pd centre is essentially planar, the N—Pd—S bite angle of 85.20 (8)° causes deviations in the cis angles from the ideal value of 90°. Opposite enantiomers form one‐dimensional chains in the cell via a short S?O intermolecular interaction.     

1‐(2‐{4‐[6‐Hydro­xy‐2‐(4‐hydroxy­phenyl)­benzo­[b]­thiol‐3‐yl­carbonyl]­phenoxy}ethyl)­piperidinium chloride

The title compound, raloxifene hydro­chloride, C₂₈H₂₈NO₄S⁺·Cl^?, belongs to the benzo­thio­phene class of antiosteoporotic drugs. In the molecular cation, the 2‐phenol ring sustains a dihedral angle of 45.3 (1)° relative to the benzo­[b]­thio­phene system. The benzo­[b]­thio­phene and phenyl ring planes are twisted with respect to the carbonyl plane, with the smallest twist component occurring between the phenyl and carbonyl planes. The N atom bears the positive charge in the molecular cation and the piperidine ring adopts an almost perfect chair conformation. The Cl^? anion is involved in the formation of N—H?Cl and O—H?Cl intermolecular hydrogen bonds, which lead to the formation of a layer of molecular cations.     

4‐[N,N‐Bis(2‐hydroxy­imino‐2‐phenyl­ethyl)­amino]‐1,5‐di­methyl‐2‐phenyl‐2,3‐di­hydro‐1H‐pyrazol‐3‐one monohydrate

The title compound, C₂₇H₂₇N₅O₃·H₂O, is built up from pyrazolinone, phenyl and aceto­phenone oxime moieties. The 2‐­phenyl substituent is nearly perpendicular to the pyrazo­linone ring, with a dihedral angle of 87.66 (1)°. The aceto­phenone oxime moieties are twisted out of the pyrazolinone‐ring plane by 47.04 (1)°. The mol­ecules in the crystal pack in an antiparallel fashion and are held together by hydrogen‐bonded water mol­ecules and intermolecular O—H⋯O and O—H⋯N hydrogen bonds.     

Two isomeric 2‐[4‐chloro‐2‐fluoro‐5‐(prop‐2‐ynyloxy)phenyl]hexahydro­isoindole‐1,3‐dione compounds

The molecular structures of 2‐[4‐chloro‐2‐fluoro‐5‐(prop‐2‐ynyloxy)phenyl]‐1,3,4,5,6,7‐hexahydro­isoindole‐1,3‐dione, C₁₇H₁₃ClFNO₃, (I), and the isomeric compound 2‐[4‐chloro‐2‐fluoro‐5‐(prop‐2‐ynyloxy)phenyl]‐cis‐1,3,3a,4,7,7a‐hexahydro­isoindole‐1,3‐dione, (II), are, as anticipated, significantly different in their conformations and in the distances between the farthest two atoms. The six‐membered ring of the 1,3,4,5,6,7‐hexahydro­isoindole‐1,3‐dione moiety in (I) adopts a half‐chair conformation. The dihedral angle between the five‐membered dione ring of (I) and the benzene ring is 50.96 (7)°. The six‐membered ring of the cis‐1,3,3a,4,7,7a‐hexahydro­isoindole‐1,3‐dione moiety in (II) adopts a boat conformation. The dihedral angle in (II) between the five‐membered dione ring and the benzene ring is 61.03 (13)°. In the crystal structures, the molecules are linked by C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds and weak π–π interactions. Compound (I) is a much more potent herbicide than (II). The Cl⋯H distances between the farthest two atoms in (I) and (II) are 11.37 and 9.97 Å, respectively.     

N‐(3H‐Thia­zol‐2‐yl­idene)­nitr­amine and N‐methyl‐N‐(thia­zol‐2‐yl)­nitr­amine

The geometries of the thia­zole ring and the nitr­amino groups in N‐(3H‐thia­zol‐2‐yl­idene)­nitr­amine, C₃H₃N₃O₂S, (I), and N‐­methyl‐N‐(thia­zol‐2‐yl)­nitr­amine, C₄H₅N₃O₂S, (II), are very similar. The nitr­amine group in (II) is planar and twisted along the C—N bond with respect to the thia­zole ring. In both structures, the asymmetric unit includes two practically equal mol­ecules. In (I), the mol­ecules are arranged in layers connected to each other by N—H⋯N and much weaker C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds. In the crystal structure of (II), the mol­ecules are arranged in layers bound to each other by both weak C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds and S⋯O dipolar interactions.     

2‐Amino­thia­zole and 2‐amino­thiazolinone derivatives

The reaction of different substituted α‐cyano­oxiranes with thio­urea resulted in the formation of the 2‐amino­thia­zolinone derivative 2‐amino‐5‐(2,5‐di­methoxy­phenyl)‐1,3‐thia­zol‐4(5H)‐one, C₁₁H₁₂N₂O₃S, (I), and the 2‐amino­thia­zole derivative ethyl 2‐amino‐5‐(2,5‐di­methoxy­phenyl)‐1,3‐thia­zole‐4‐carboxyl­ate, C₁₄H₁₆N₂O₄S, (II). The geometries of the two crystallographically independent mol­ecules in (II) are nearly identical but mirror related. The crystal structures of both compounds contain two types of intermolecular hydrogen bonds.
