N‐Benzyl­tetra­hydro­pyrido‐anellated thio­phene derivatives: new anti­cholinesterases

The title compounds, tert‐butyl 6‐benzyl‐2‐(3,3‐diethyl­ureido)‐4,5,6,7‐tetra­hydro­thieno[2,3‐c]pyridine‐3‐carboxyl­ate, C₂₄H₃₃N₃O₃S, (I), 7‐benzyl‐2‐diethyl­amino‐5,6,7,8‐tetra­hydro‐3‐oxa‐9‐thia‐1,7‐diaza­fluoren‐4‐one, C₂₀H₂₃N₃O₂S, (II), and N‐(7‐benzyl‐4‐oxo‐5,6,7,8‐tetra­hydro‐4H‐3,9‐dithia‐1,7‐diaza­fluoren‐2‐yl)benzamide, C₂₃H₁₉N₃O₂S₂, (III), form monoclinic crystal systems. In (I) and (II), the mol­ecules are linked into a three‐dimensional framework by weak inter­molecular C—H⋯O=C hydrogen bonds, whereas in (III) stronger inter­molecular N—H⋯O=C inter­actions are observed. The conformation of (I) is further stabilized by an intra­molecular N—H⋯O=C hydrogen bond, which effects the planarity of the ureido­thio­phene­carboxyl­ate moiety.     

The stable inner salt 2,2‐dimorpholino‐2‐ethyl­ium‐1‐di­thio­ate

The title compound, C₁₀H₁₆N₂O₂S₂, is considered to maintain an inner‐salt structure in the crystal, where the planes of the carbenium and the thio­carboxyl­ate moieties are nearly perpendicular to each other [77 (2)°], and the backbone C—C bond length [N₂C—CS₂ 1.510 (2) Å] is significantly shorter than a normal C—C single‐bond length.     

A host–guest complex of di­aqua­bis­[1‐hydroxy‐2(1H)‐pyridine­thionato‐O,S]­magnesium(II) and 2,2′‐di­thio­bis­(pyridine N‐oxide)

The title compound, [Mg(C₅H₄NOS)₂(H₂O)₂]·C₁₀H₈N₂O₂S₂, is a two‐component host–guest material. The 2,2′‐di­thio­bis(pyridine N‐oxide) molecule has crystallographic twofold symmetry. The metal complex lies on an inversion centre and associates via C—H?S interactions into chains which thread the 2,2′‐di­thio­bis­(pyridine N‐oxide) lattice in perpendicular directions. Hydro­gen bonds exist between the water mol­ecules of the di­aqua­magnesium units and the N—O groups of the host lattice.     

The gold(III) tetra­chloride salt of L‐cocaine

The title salt, methyl (1R,2R,3S,5S,8S)‐3‐benzoyl­oxy‐8‐methyl‐8‐aza­bicyclo­[3.2.1]octane‐2‐carboxyl­ate tetra­chloro­aurate(III), (C₁₇H₂₂NO₄)[AuCl₄], has its protonated N atom intra­molecularly hydrogen bonded to the O atom of the methoxy­carbonyl group [N⋯O = 2.755 (6) Å and N—H⋯O = 136°]. Two close inter­molecular C—H⋯O contacts exist, as well as five C—H⋯Cl close contacts. The [AuCl₄]⁻ anion was found to be distorted square planar.     

Di­propyl 3,6‐di­phenyl‐1,2‐di­hydro‐1,2,4,5‐tetrazine‐1,2‐di­carboxyl­ate

The title compound, C₂₂H₂₄N₄O₄, was prepared from propyl chloro­formate and 3,6‐di­phenyl‐1,2‐di­hydro‐s‐tetrazine. This reaction yields the title compound rather than di­propyl 3,6‐di­phenyl‐1,4‐di­hydro‐s‐tetrazine‐1,4‐di­carboxyl­ate. The 2,3‐di­aza­buta­diene group in the central six‐membered ring is not planar; the C=N double‐bond length is 1.285 (2) Å, and the average N—N single‐bond length is 1.401 (3) Å, indicating a lack of conjugation. The ring has a twist conformation, in which adjacent N atoms lie 0.3268 (17) Å from the plane of the ring. The mol­ecule has twofold crystallographic symmetry.     

A one‐dimensional ladder‐like coordination polymer derived from chains formed via hydrogen bonds: catena‐poly­[[aqua­di­pyridine­nickel(II)]‐μ‐2,2′‐di­thio­dibenzoato‐κ3O,O′:O′′]

The title one‐dimensional chain nickel(II)–di­sulfide complex, [Ni(C₁₄H₈O₄S₂)(C₅H₅N)₂(H₂O)]_n, has each Ni^II cation coordinated by two N atoms from two pyridine ligands, three carboxyl­ate O atoms from two different di­thio­dibenzoate ligands and one O atom from a coordinated water mol­ecule, in a distorted octahedral coordination geometry. Each di­thio­dibenzoate ion links two Ni^II cations through its carboxyl­ate O atoms, making the structure polymeric. Hydro­gen‐bond interactions between two shoulder‐to‐shoulder chains lead to the formation of a ladder‐like structure.     

Poly­[iron(II)‐di‐μ‐imidazole‐4,5‐di­carboxyl­ato‐κ3N3,O4:O5]

In the title compound, [Fe(C₅H₃N₂O₄)₂]_n, each Fe atom lies on a centre of symmetry, in an octahedral coordination environment consisting of two chelate rings [Fe—N = 2.154 (3) Å and Fe—O = 2.180 (3) Å] and two carboxyl­ate O atoms [Fe—O = 2.111 (2) Å] from imidazole‐4,5‐di­carboxyl­ate ligands. Extensive hydrogen‐bonding interactions exist between layers constructed of Fe₄ squares, forming tunnels along the a axis with large voids.     

Transition metal complexes with thio­semicarbazide‐based ligands. XV. A square‐pyramidal NiII complex with an asymmetric coordination of 2,6‐di­acetyl­pyridine bis(S‐methyl­iso­thio­semicarbazone)

The title compound, [di­acetyl­pyridine bis(S‐methyl­iso­thio­semicarbazonato)]­iodo­nickel(II), [Ni(C₁₃H₁₈N₇S₂)I], is the first example of a complex involving the ²N coordination of the iso­thio­semicarbazide moiety. 2,6‐Di­acetyl­pyridine bis(S‐methyl­iso­thio­semicarbazone), as a potentially pentadentate ligand (N₅), is coordinated as a tetradentate species, whereby one (deprotonated) iso­thio­semicarbazide moiety is coordinated in the usual way (¹N⁴N), but the other (neutral) is bonded via the ²N atom only, the fourth ligator being the pyridine nitro­gen. The difference in coordination mode of the iso­thio­semicarbazide moiety is reflected in the ¹N—²N bond lengths of 1.359 (4) and 1.379 (3) Å in the deprotonated and undeprotonated moieties, respectively. The structure contains three fused chelate rings in a 5:5:6 arrangement. The six‐membered ring has a non‐planar conformation.     

catena‐Poly[potassium [copper(II)‐μ‐isothiocyanato‐μ‐N‐salicylidene‐β‐alaninato(2–)]]

The title polymeric compound, catena‐poly­[dipotassium [bis­[μ‐N‐salicyl­idene‐β‐alaninato(2−)]‐κ⁴O,N,O′:O′′;κ⁴O′′:O,N,O′‐dicopper(II)]‐di‐μ‐iso­thio­cyanato‐κ²N:S;κ²S:N], {K[Cu(NCS)(C₁₀H₉NO₃)]}_n, consists of [iso­thio­cyanato(N‐salicyl­idene‐β‐alaninato)copper(II)]⁻ anions connected through the two three‐atom thio­cyanate (μ‐NCS) and the two anti,anti‐μ‐­carboxyl­ate bridges into infinite one‐dimensional polymeric anions, with coulombically interacting K⁺ counter‐ions with coordination number 7 constrained between the chains. The Cu^II atoms adopt a distorted tetragonal–bipyramidal coordination, with three donor atoms of the tridentate Schiff base and one N atom of the bridging μ‐NCS ligand in the basal plane. The first axial position is occupied by a thio­cyanate S atom of a symmetry‐related μ‐NCS ligand at an apical distance of 2.9770 (8) Å, and the second position is occupied by an O atom of a bridging carboxyl­ate group from an adjacent coordination unit at a distance of 2.639 (2) Å.     

[N,N′‐Bis(3‐aminopropyl)ethylenediamine‐κ4N,N′,N′′,N′′′](trithiocyanurato‐κ2N,S)zinc(II) ethanol solvate

In the crystal structure of the title compound, [N,N′‐bis(3‐­amino­propyl)­ethyl­enedi­amine‐κ⁴N,N′,N′′,N′′′][1,3,5‐triazine‐2,4,6(1H,3H,5H)‐tri­thionato(2−)‐κ²N,S]­zinc(II) ethanol sol­vate, [Zn(C₈H₂₂N₄)₂(C₃HN₃S₃)]·C₂H₆O, the Zn^II atom is octa­hedrally coordinated by four N atoms [Zn—N = 2.104 (2)–2.203 (2) Å] of a tetradentate N‐donor N,N′‐bis(3‐­amino­propyl)­ethyl­enedi­amine (bapen) ligand and by two S and N atoms [Zn—S = 2.5700 (7) Å and Zn—N = 2.313 (2) Å] of a tri­thio­cyanurate(2−) (ttcH²⁻) dianion bonded as a bidentate ligand in a cis configuration. The crystal structure of the compound is stabilized by a network of hydrogen bonds.     

2‐[(E)‐(4‐Chloro­phenyl)­methyl­ene­amino]‐N‐(X‐methyl­phenyl)‐4,5,6,7‐tetra­hydro‐1‐benzo­thio­phene‐3‐carbox­amide,where X = 2 and 3

The title compounds, both C₂₃H₂₁ClN₂OS, are isomeric, with (I) and (II) being the N‐3‐methyl­phenyl and N‐2‐methyl­phenyl derivatives, respectively. The dihedral angle between the 4‐chloro­phenyl group and the thio­phene ring in (II) [38.1 (1)°] is larger than that in (I) [7.1 (1)°], indicating steric repulsion between the chloro­phenyl and o‐toluidine groups in (II). In both compounds, an intramolecular N—H⋯N hydrogen bond forms a pseudo‐six‐membered ring, thus locking the molecular conformation. In the crystal structures, mol­ecules are connected via N—H⋯O hydrogen bonds, forming chains along the b axis in (I) and along the c axis in (II). Intermolecular C—H⋯O/S and π–π interactions are also observed in (II), but not in (I).     

Racemic and chiral 1‐[N‐(chloro­acetyl)carbamoylamino]‐2,3‐dihydro‐1H‐inden‐2‐yl chloroacetate

In the racemic crystals of (1S,2R)‐ or (1R,2S)‐1‐[N‐(chloro­acetyl)­carbamoyl­amino]‐2,3‐di­hydro‐1H‐inden‐2‐yl chloro­acetate, C₁₄H₁₄Cl₂N₂O₄, (I), the enantiomeric mol­ecules form a dimeric structure via the N—H?O cyclic hydrogen bond of the carbamoyl moieties. In the chiral crystals of (—)‐(1S,2R)‐1‐[N‐(chloro­acetyl)­carbamoyl­amino]‐2,3‐di­hydro‐1H‐inden‐2‐yl chloro­acetate, C₁₄H₁₄Cl₂N₂O₄, (II), the N—­H?O intermolecular hydrogen bond forms a zigzag chain around the twofold screw axis. The melting points and calculated densities of (I) and (II) are 446 and 396 K, and 1.481 and 1.445 Mg m^?3, respectively.     

Chlorobis[N′‐ethoxycarbonyl‐N‐(4‐methylphenyl)thiourea‐κS]copper(I)

The title complex, chloro­bis{ethyl N‐[(4‐methyl­anilino)­thio­carbonyl]­carbamate‐κS}copper(I), [CuCl(C₁₁H₁₄N₂O₂S)₂], was synthesized by the reaction of cupric chloride with the corresponding thio­urea derivative. The complex has imposed crystallographic m symmetry and the Cu^I coordination environment is trigonal planar, formed by two S atoms and one Cl atom. The formation of intramolecular hydrogen bonds promotes the stability of the complex.     

tert‐Butyl (6S)‐4‐hydroxy‐6‐isobutyl‐2‐oxo‐1,2,5,6‐tetra­hydropyridine‐1‐carboxyl­ate and tert‐butyl (4R,6S)‐4‐hydroxy‐6‐iso­butyl‐2‐oxopiperidine‐1‐carboxyl­ate

X‐ray studies reveal that tert‐butyl (6S)‐6‐iso­butyl‐2,4‐dioxo­piperidine‐1‐carboxyl­ate occurs in the 4‐enol form, viz. tert‐butyl (6S)‐4‐hydroxy‐6‐iso­butyl‐2‐oxo‐1,2,5,6‐tetra­hydropyri­dine‐1‐carboxyl­ate, C₁₄H₂₃NO₄, when crystals are grown from a mixture of di­chloro­methane and pentane, and has an axial orientation of the iso­butyl side chain at the 6‐position of the piperidine ring. Reduction of the keto functionality leads predominantly to the corresponding β‐hydroxy­lated δ‐lactam, tert‐butyl (4R,6S)‐4‐hydroxy‐6‐iso­butyl‐2‐oxo­piperidine‐1‐car­boxyl­ate, C₁₄H₂₅NO₄, with a cis configuration of the 4‐hydroxy and 6‐iso­butyl groups. The two compounds show similar molecular packing driven by strong O—H⋯O=C hydrogen bonds, leading to infinite chains in the crystal structure.     

A 1:2 complex of mercury(II) chloride with 1,3‐imidazole‐2‐thione

The Hg atom in the title monomeric complex, di­chloro­bis(3‐imidazolium‐2‐thiol­ato‐S)­mercury(II), [HgCl₂(C₃H₄N₂S)₂], is four‐coordinate having an irregular tetrahedral geometry composed of two Cl atoms [Hg—Cl 2.622 (2) and 2.663 (2) Å] and two thione S atoms [Hg—S 2.445 (2) and 2.462 (2) Å]. The monodentate thione ligand adopts a zwitterionic form and exists as the 3‐imidazolium‐2‐thiol­ate ion. The bond angle S1—Hg—S2 of 130.87 (8)° has the greatest deviation from ideal tetrahedral geometry. Intermolecular hydrogen bonds between two of the four N—H groups and one of the Cl atoms [3.232 (8) and 3.238 (7) Å] stabilize the crystal structure, while the other two N—H groups contribute through the formation of N—H?Cl intramolecular hydrogen bonds with the other Cl atom [3.121 (7) and 3.188 (7) Å].     

The chloro­(diethyl­amino)­di­methyl­tin dimer

The title compound, di‐μ‐diethyl­amido‐N:N‐bis­[chloro­di­methyl­tin(IV)], consists of discrete [Sn₂Cl₂(CH₃)₄(C₄H₁₀N)₂] dimer mol­ecules, with Sn atoms linked by bridging diethyl­amido groups. The coordination geometry about the metal atom is distorted trigonal bipyramidal, with the two methyl C atoms and one N atom in the equatorial plane, and the Cl and second N atom in axial positions.

In the title compound, [Ba(C₇H₅O₂S)₂(H₂O)₄]_n, the Ba^II atom lies on a mirror plane and is nine‐coordinated by four bridging carboxylate O atoms of the thio­salicyl­ate ligands, two bridging water mol­ecules and three terminal water mol­ecules. There is an intramolecular S—H⋯O hydrogen bond between the S and O atoms in the thio­salicyl­ate ligand. A one‐dimensional coordination polymer is formed via weak metal–metal interactions along polymeric zigzag chains.

Adjacent Cd atoms are linked by the pyridyl N atom and the bidentate carboxyl­ate functional group of a 2‐­chloro­nicotinate ligand, forming a one‐dimensional infinite chain along the b axis. The Cd⋯Cd distance is 8.112 (3) Å. These chains are linked by O—H⋯O and O—H⋯N hydrogen bonds into a three‐dimensional network structure.
