4-(Phenyldiazenyl)naphthalen-1-amine and its hydrochloride

The crystal structures of 4-(phenyl­diazenyl)­naphthalen-1-amine, C₁₆H₁₃N₃, (I), and its hydro­chloride, (4-amino­naph­thal­en-1-yl)­phenyl­diazenium chloride, C₁₆H₁₄­N₃⁺·­Cl⁻, (II), have been determined from X-ray single-crystal and powder data, respectively. The effect of the crystal environment on the molecular electronic structure was analysed on the AM1 level. One of the two symmetry-independent mol­ecules in (I) is involved in intermolecular hydrogen bonding, so that its dipole moment is twice as large as that of the other mol­ecule. The cations in (II) form stacks along [100], with the Cl⁻ anions forming hydrogen bonds to all three H atoms attached to N atoms.     

Cesium tetrakis(1-(1,5-dimethyl-1H-pyrazol-4-yl)-4,4,4-trifluorobutane-1,3-diono)europiate(III): Synthesis, crystal structure, and luminescence properties

Anionic complex Cs⁺[EuL₄]^? (I) is synthesized by the reaction of Eu(NO₃)₃ · 6H₂O with 1-(1,5-dimethyl-1H-pyrazol-4-yl)-4,4,4-trifluorobutane-1,3-dione (HL) and CsOH in an aqueous-alcohol medium.

The crystals of complex Ia at 100 K are monoclinic, a = 10.8435(5), b = 20.1353(9), c = 23.355(1) Å, β = 92.548(1)°, V = 5094.3(4) ų, space group P2₁/n, Z = 4, and R = 0.0294. The coordination number of the Cs⁺ ion is 9. The Cs⁺ ion forms shortened (up to 3.3 Å) contacts with the O, N, and F atoms of four diketonate fragments joining the molecules into a three-dimensional structure.     

Neutral 4‐phenyl‐1‐[phenyl(pyridin‐2‐yl)methylidene]semicarbazide and its salt forms with inorganic anions

Semicarbazones can exist in two tautomeric forms. In the solid state, they are found in the keto form. This work presents the synthesis, structures and spectroscopic characterization (IR and NMR spectroscopy) of four such compounds, namely the neutral molecule 4‐phenyl‐1‐[phenyl(pyridin‐2‐yl)methylidene]semicarbazide, C₁₉H₁₆N₄O, (I), abbreviated as HBzPyS, and three different hydrated salts, namely the chloride dihydrate, C₁₉H₁₇N₄O⁺·Cl^?·2H₂O, (II), the nitrate dihydrate, C₁₉H₁₇N₄O⁺·NO₃^?·2H₂O, (III), and the thiocyanate 2.5‐hydrate, C₁₉H₁₇N₄O⁺·SCN^?·2.5H₂O, (IV), of 2‐[phenyl({[(phenylcarbamoyl)amino]imino})methyl]pyridinium, abbreviated as [H₂BzPyS]⁺·X^?·nH₂O, with X = Cl^? and n = 2 for (II), X = NO₃^? and n = 2 for (III), and X = SCN^? and n = 2.5 for (IV), showing the influence of the anionic form in the intermolecular interactions. Water molecules and counter‐ions (chloride or nitrate) are involved in the formation of a two‐dimensional arrangement by the establishment of hydrogen bonds with the N—H groups of the cation, stabilizing the E isomers in the solid state. The neutral HBzPyS molecule crystallized as the E isomer due to the existence of weak π–π interactions between pairs of molecules. The calculated IR spectrum of the hydrated [H₂BzPyS]⁺ cation is in good agreement with the experimental results.     

1‐[2‐(1‐Hydroxy­cyclo­hexyl)‐2‐(4‐methoxy­phenyl)­ethyl]­di­methyl­ammon­ium chloride (venlafaxine hydro­chloride)

The crystal structure of racemic Venlafaxine hydro­chloride, C₁₇H₂₈NO₂⁺·Cl^?, consists of two types of parallel chains formed by translated Venlafaxine⁺ cations, hydrogen bonded by Cl^? anions, and characterized by the opposite chirality of their constituent mol­ecules. These chains organize in two different types of broad layers of opposite handedness, related by a glide plane.     

The conformational analyses of 2‐amino‐N‐[2‐(dimethylphenoxy)ethyl]propan‐1‐ol derivatives in different environments

Four crystal structures of 2‐amino‐N‐(dimethylphenoxyethyl)propan‐1‐ol derivatives, characterized by X‐ray diffraction analysis, are reported. The free base (R,S)‐2‐amino‐N‐[2‐(2,3‐dimethylphenoxy)ethyl]propan‐1‐ol, C₁₃H₂₁NO₂, 1 , crystallizes in the space group P2₁/n, with two independent molecules in the asymmetric unit. The hydrochloride, (S)‐N‐[2‐(2,6‐dimethylphenoxy)ethyl]‐1‐hydroxypropan‐2‐aminium chloride, C₁₃H₂₂NO₂⁺·Cl^?, 2c , crystallizes in the space group P2₁, with one cation and one chloride anion in the asymmetric unit. The asymmetric unit of two salts of 2‐picolinic acid, namely, (R,S)‐N‐[2‐(2,3‐dimethylphenoxy)ethyl]‐1‐hydroxypropan‐2‐aminium pyridine‐2‐carboxylate, C₁₃H₂₂NO₂⁺·C₆H₄NO₂^?, 1p , and (R)‐N‐[2‐(2,6‐dimethylphenoxy)ethyl]‐1‐hydroxypropan‐2‐aminium pyridine‐2‐carboxylate, C₁₃H₂₂NO₂⁺·C₆H₄NO₂^?, 2p , consists of one cation and one 2‐picolinate anion. Salt 1p crystallizes in the triclinic centrosymmetric space group P, while salt 2p crystallizes in the space group P4₁2₁2. The conformations of the amine fragments are contrasted and that of 2p is found to have an unusual antiperiplanar arrangement about the ether group. The crystal packing of 1 and 2c is dominated by hydrogen‐bonded chains, while the structures of the 2‐picolinate salts have hydrogen‐bonded rings as the major features. In both salts with 2‐picolinic acid, the specific R₁²(5) hydrogen‐bonding motif is observed. Structural studies have been enriched by the generation of fingerprint plots derived from Hirshfeld surfaces.     

Synthesis,structure and magnetic properties of Ni2(NO3)4(APTY)4 (APTY=1,5-dimethyl-2-phenyl-4-{[(1 E )-pyridine-4-ylmethylene]amino}-1,2-dihydro-3 H -pyrazol-3-one)

A novel dinuclear nickel(II) complex Ni₂(NO₃)₄(APTY)₄ (1) (APTY?=?1,5-dimethyl-2-phenyl-4-{[(1E)-pyridine-4-ylmethylene]amino}-1,2-dihydro-3H-pyrazol-3-one), was synthesized by solvothermal reaction of Ni(NO₃)₂?·?6H₂O with APTY in methanol at 353?K. The structure consists of centrosymmetric dimers resulting from octahedrally coordinated Ni atoms bridged by APTY ligands. Weak intermolecular interactions (C–H?···?N, C–H?···?O hydrogen bonding, C–H?···?π and π–π stacking interactions) are responsible for a supramolecular assembly of molecules in the lattice. Magnetic measurements over 1.8–300?K show weak antiferromagnetic coupling between Ni(II) ions with J?=?2.969?cm^?1, g?=?2.280, θ?=??5.903.     

The antiestrogen [2‐(4‐benzyl­phenoxy)­ethyl]­diethyl­ammonium chloride

The crystal structure of the title compound, C₁₉H₂₆NO⁺·Cl^? (common name: N,N‐diethyl‐2‐[(4‐phenyl­methyl)phenoxy]‐ethan­amine hydro­chloride), contains one mol­ecule in the asymmetric unit. The planes through the two phenyl rings are roughly perpendicular. Protonation occurs at the N atom, to which the Cl^? ion is linked via an N—H?Cl hydrogen bond. The mol­ecule adopts an eclipsed rather than extended conformation.

Influence of protonation on the geometry of 2-{[(2,6-dimethylphenoxy)ethyl]amino}-1-phenylethan-1-ol: crystal structures of the free base and of its chloride and 3-hydroxybenzoate salt forms

The aroxyalkylaminoalcohol derivatives are a group of compounds known for their pharmacological action. The crystal structures of four new xylenoxyaminoalcohol derivatives having anticonvulsant activity are reported, namely, 2-{[2-(2,6-dimethylphenoxy)ethyl]amino}-1-phenylethan-1-ol, C₁₈H₂₃NO₂, 1 , the salt N-[2-(2,6-dimethylphenoxy)ethyl]-1-hydroxy-1-phenylethan-2-aminium 3-hydroxybenzoate, C₁₈H₂₄NO₂⁺·C₇H₅O₃^?, 2 , and two polymorphs of the salt (R)-N-[2-(2,6-dimethylphenoxy)ethyl]-1-hydroxy-1-phenylethan-2-aminium chloride, C₁₈H₂₄NO₂⁺·Cl^?, 3 and 3p . Both polymorphs crystallize in the space group P2₁2₁2 and each has two cations and two anions in the asymmetric unit (Z′ = 2). The molecules in the polymorphs show differences in their molecular conformations and intermolecular interactions. The crystal packing of neutral 1 is dominated by intermolecular O—H…N hydrogen bonds, resulting in the formation of one-dimensional chains. In the crystal structures of the salt forms ( 2 , 3 and 3p ), each protonated N atom is engaged in a charge-assisted hydrogen bond with the corresponding anion. The protonation of the N atom also influences the conformation of the molecular linker between the two aromatic rings and changes the orientation of the rings. The crystal packing of the salt forms is dominated by intermolecular O—H…O hydrogen bonds, resulting in the creation of chains and rings. Structural studies have been enriched by the calculation of Hirshfeld surfaces and the corresponding fingerprint plots.     

2(S)‐Amino‐3‐[1H‐imidazol‐4(5)‐yl]­propyl cyclo­hexylmethyl ether di­hydro­chloride and 2(S)‐amino‐3‐[1H‐imidazol‐4(5)‐yl]­propyl 4‐bromo­benzyl ether di­hydro­chloride

(M)‐ and (P)‐8‐[(1S,2R)‐2‐hydroxy‐1‐methyl‐2‐phenylethyl]‐8‐methyl‐8,9‐dihydro‐7H‐dinaphth[2,1‐c:1′,2′‐e]azepinium bromide solvates

The title compounds are diastereoisomers with antipodean axial chirality. The M isomer crystallizes as a (1/3) acetone solvate, C₃₂H₃₀NO⁺·Br^?·3C₃H₆O, while the P isomer crystallizes as a (1/1) di­chloro­methane solvate, C₃₂H₃₀NO⁺·Br^?·CH₂Cl₂. In each structure, O—H?Br hydrogen bonds link the cations and anions to give ion pairs. The seven‐membered azepinium ring adopts the usual twisted‐boat conformation and its ring strain causes a slight curvature of the plane of each naphthyl ring.

On the basis of the results of elemental analysis and Ni and Co determination, the following molecular formulae were proposed for the obtained compounds: Ni(C₈H₅O₃Cl₂)₂·6H₂O, Co(C₈H₅O₃Cl₂)₂·6H₂O, Ni(C₉H₇O₃Cl₂)₂·2H₂O and Co(C₉H₇O₃Cl₂)₂·2H₂O. X-ray powder analysis was carried out. The IR, electronic (VIS) spectra and conductivity data were discussed. Water solubility of the synthesized complexes at room temperature was examined. Thermal decomposition of the compounds was studied. Dehydration processes occur during heating in air. The anhydrous compounds decompose via different intermediate products to oxides. TG/MS studies indicate formation of gaseous mass fragments of decomposition including H₂O⁺, OH⁺, CO₂ ⁺, HCl⁺, Cl₂ ⁺, CH₃Cl⁺, CH₂O⁺, C₆H₆ ⁺ and other.

Palladium(II) complex with 6-(2-hydroxy-5-methylphenyl)-3-(pyridin-2-yl)-1,2,4-triazin-5(2H)-one was synthesized for the first time. The ligand was prepared from 3-(pyridin-2-yl)-1,2,4-triazin-5(2H)-one and 4-methylphenol via nucleophilic substitution of hydrogen (S_N^H reaction). The complex was readily soluble in basic medium, and it effectively catalyzed Mizoroki-Heck reaction.     

Self-assembly of 1-D, 2-D,and 3-D transition-metal coordination polymers based on a T-shaped tripodal ligand 4-(4,5-dicarboxy-1H-imidazol-2-yl)pyridine 1-oxide

Three coordination polymers, {[Co(C₁₀H₅N₃O₅)(H₂O)₂]·H₂O}_n (1), {[Mn₃(C₁₀H₅N₃O₅)₂Cl₂(H₂O)₆]·2H₂O}_n (2), and {[Cu₃(C₁₀H₄N₃O₅)₂(H₂O)₃]·4H₂O}_n (3), based on a T-shaped tripodal ligand 4-(4,5-dicarboxy-1H-imidazol-2-yl)pyridine 1-oxide (H₃DCImPyO), were synthesized under hydrothermal conditions. The polymers showed diverse coordination modes, being characterized by elemental analysis, infrared spectroscopy, and single-crystal X-ray structure analysis. In 1, the HDCImPyO^2? generated a 1-D chain by adopting a μ₂-kN, O : kN′, O′ coordination mode to bridge two Co(II) ions in two bis-N,O-chelating modes. In 2, the HDCImPyO^2? adopted a μ₃-kN, O : kO′, O′′ : O′′′ coordination mode to bridge two crystallographically independent Mn(II) ions, forming a 2-D hcb network with {6³} topology. In 3, by adopting μ₄-kN, O : kO′, O′′ : kN′′, O′′′ : O′′′′ coordination, DCImPyO^3? bridged three crystallographically independent Cu(II) ions to form a 3-D framework having the stb topology.     

Secondary interactions in n‐(chloromethyl)pyridinium chlorides (n = 2, 3, 4)

In the isomeric title compounds, viz. 2‐, 3‐ and 4‐(chloro­methyl)pyridinium chloride, C₆H₇ClN⁺·Cl^?, the secondary interactions have been established as follows. Classical N—H?Cl^? hydrogen bonds are observed in the 2‐ and 3‐isomers, whereas the 4‐isomer forms inversion‐symmetric N—H(?Cl^??)₂H—N dimers involving three‐centre hydrogen bonds. Short Cl?Cl contacts are formed in both the 2‐isomer (C—Cl?Cl^?, approximately linear at the central Cl) and the 4‐isomer (C—Cl?Cl—C, angles at Cl of ca 75°). Additionally, each compound displays contacts of the form C—H?Cl, mainly to the Cl^? anion. The net effect is to create either a layer structure (3‐isomer) or a three‐dimensional packing with easily identifiable layer substructures (2‐ and 4‐isomers).     

3-Alkylsulfanyl-2-arylazo-3-(pyrrolidin-1-yl)-acrylonitriles as masked 1,3-dipoles

Reaction of 3-alkylsulfanyl-2-arylazo-3-(pyrrolidin-1-yl)acrylonitriles with maleimides, dimethyl maleate and dimethylacetylene dicarboxylate were carried out to give octahydro-pyrrolo[3,4-a]pyrrolizin-4-ylidenes, hexahydro-pyrrolizines and 6,7-dihydro-5H-pyrrolizines. The formation of the synthesized compounds is explained by a 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition of an in situ generated azomethine ylide. The mechanisms of the formation of these active intermediates were discussed with the aid of density functional theory methods with the B3LYP functional 6-31G⁺ calculations using the STQN method and chemical experiments.
