The title compound, 3,5‐Dimethyl‐pyrazole‐1‐carbodithioic acid benzyl ester, has been synthesized and structurally characterized by X‐ray single crystal diffraction, elemental analysis, IR spectra, and UV‐Vis spectrum. The crystal belongs to orthorhombic, space group P212121, with a = 5.3829(15), b = 11.193(3), c = 21.824(6) Å, V = 1315.0(6) ų, and Z = 4. The molecules are connected via intermolecular C–H···N hydrogen bonds into 1D infinite chains. The crystal structure is consolidated by the intramolecular C–H···S hydrogen bonds. Furthermore, Density functional theory (DFT) calculations of the structure, stabilities, orbital energies, composition characteristics of some frontier molecular orbitals and Mulliken charge distributions of the title compound were performed by means of Gaussian 03W package and taking B3LYP/6‐31G(d) basis set. The time‐dependent DFT (TD‐DFT) calculations have been employed to calculate the electronic spectrum of the title compound, and the UV‐Vis spectra has been discussed on this basis. The results show that DFT method at B3LYP/6‐31G(d) level can well reproduce the structure of the title compound. © 2011 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. Int J Quantum Chem, 2012     

Investigation of (1R,2S)‐(−)‐Ephedrine by Cryogenic Terahertz Spectroscopy and Solid‐State Density Functional Theory

The terahertz (THz) spectrum of the pharmaceutical (1R,2S)‐(?)‐ephedrine from 8.0 to 100.0 cm^?1 is investigated at liquid‐nitrogen (78.4 K) temperature. The spectrum exhibits several distinct features in this range that are characteristic of the crystal form of the compound. A complete structural analysis and vibrational assignment of the experimental spectrum is performed using solid‐state density functional theory (DFT) and cryogenic single‐crystal X‐ray diffraction. Theoretical modeling of the compound includes an array of density functionals and basis sets with the final assignment of the THz spectrum performed at a PW91/6‐311G(d,p) level of theory, which provides excellent solid‐state simulation agreement with experiment. The solid‐state analysis indicates that the seven experimental spectral features observed at low temperature consist of 13 IR‐active vibrational modes. Of these modes, nine are external crystal vibrations and provide approximately 57 % of the predicted spectral intensity. This study demonstrates that the THz spectra of complex pharmaceuticals may be well reproduced by solid‐state DFT calculations and that inclusion of the crystalline environment is necessary for realistic and accurate simulations.

Compound 4 is a 1D chain, which is further extended into a 3D supramolecular net by hydrogen bonds and π ··· π stacking interactions. The thermogravimetric and fluorescence properties of 1 – 4 were also explored.     

Synthesis,Crystal Structure and Density Functional Studies on 1N‐Phenyl‐3‐(2,4‐Dichlorophenyl)‐5‐(4‐Chlorophenyl)‐2‐Pyrazoline

1N‐Phenyl‐3‐(2,4‐dichlorophenyl)‐5‐(4‐chlorophenyl)‐2‐pyrazoline has been synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis, IR, UV‐Vis and X‐ray single crystal diffraction. Density functional calculations have been carried out for the title compound by using the B3LYP method with a 6‐311G** basis set.

Ab initio and semiempirical computational studies on 1‐{(2E)‐2‐[(aminocarbonothioyl)hydrazono]‐2‐(3‐mesityl‐3‐methylcyclobutyl)ethyl}‐pyrrolidine‐2,5‐dione

The molecular geometry, vibrational frequencies, and gauge including atomic orbital (GIAO) ¹H‐ and ¹³C NMR chemical shift values of the title compound in the ground state have been calculated using the Hartree‐Fock (HF) and density functional theory (DFT) methods with 6‐31G(d) basis sets, and compared with the experimental data. The calculated results show that the optimized geometries can well reproduce the crystal structural parameters and the theoretical vibrational frequencies, and ¹H‐ and ¹³C NMR chemical shift values show good agreement with experimental data. To determine conformational flexibility, the molecular energy profile of the title compound was obtained by semiempirical (AM1) calculations with respect to the selected torsion angle, which was varied from ?180° to +180° in steps of 10°. The energetic behavior of the title compound in solvent media was examined using the B3LYP method with the 6‐31G(d) basis set by applying the Onsager and the polarizable continuum model (PCM). The results obtained with these methods reveal that the PCM method provided more stable structure than Qnsager's method. By using TD‐DFT method, electronic absorption spectra of the title compound have been predicted and a good agreement with the TD‐DFT method and the experimental one is determined. The predicted nonlinear optical properties of the title compound are much greater than ones of urea. In addition, the molecular electrostatic potential (MEP), frontier molecular orbitals (FMO) analysis, NBO analysis and thermodynamic properties of the title compound were investigated using theoretical calculations. © 2011 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

4‐(3,5‐Dimethyl‐1H‐pyrazol‐4‐ylmethyl)‐3,5‐dimethyl‐1H‐pyrazol‐2‐ium dihydrogen phosphate: a combined X‐ray and DFT study

The molecular structure of the title salt, C₁₁H₁₇N₄⁺·H₂PO₄⁻, has been determined from single‐crystal X‐ray analysis and compared with the structure calculated by density functional theory (DFT) at the BLYP level. The crystal packing in the title compound is stabilized primarily by intermolecular N—H...O, O—H...N and O—H...O hydrogen bonds and π–π stacking interactions, and thus a three‐dimensional supramolecular honeycomb network consisting of R₄²(10), R₄⁴(14) and R₄⁴(24) ring motifs is established. The HOMO–LUMO energy gap (1.338 eV; HOMO is the highest occupied molecular orbital and LUMO is the lowest unoccupied molecular orbital) indicates a high chemical reactivity for the title compound.     

The Synthesis,X‐ray Structure Analysis,and Photophysical Characterization of 4‐[(E)‐2‐(4‐Carboxyphenyl)diazenyl]‐morpholine

4‐[(E)‐2‐(4‐Carboxyphenyl)diazenyl]‐morpholine ( 1 ) was prepared in 33% yield from a coupling reaction between morpholine and the diazonium ion formed from 4‐aminobenzoic acid. X‐ray structural analysis of 1 yielded two important insights into its structure: the geometry of the N―N double bond and the partial delocalization across the linear triazene moiety. The absorption spectra of 1 in dilute acetonitrile and 2‐methyltetrahydrofuran solutions both featured an intense (ε ≈ 20,000 M^?1cm^?1) band centered at 320–324 nm that was assigned as a mixture of π → π* and n → π* transitions. Emission was observed at 383 and 379 nm from dilute acetonitrile and 2‐methyltetrahydrofuran solutions of 1 , respectively, with the latter being red‐shifted to 439 nm at 77 K. Emission lifetime data for compound 1 provided evidence that the emission was a mixture of two excited state transitions.     

Structural and Solution Studies of two Mercury(II) Complexes with [1,3‐Bis(2‐ethoxy)benzene]triazene

The reaction of [1,3‐bis(2‐ethoxy)benzene]triazene, [ HL ], with Hg(SCN)₂ and Hg(CH₃COO)₂, resulted in the formation of the complexes [Hg L (SCN)] ( 1 ) and [Hg L ₂] · CH₃OH ( 2 ). They were characterized by means of X‐ray crystallography, CHN analysis, FT‐IR, ¹H NMR, and ¹³C NMR spectroscopy. The structure of compound 1 consists of two independent complexes in which the Hg^II atoms are stacked along the crystallographic a axis to form infinite chains. Each Hg^II atom is chelated by one L ligand and one SCN ligand, whereas in compound 2 , the Hg^II atom is surrounded by two L ligands. In addition, 1D chains formed by metal–π interactions are connected to each other by C–H ··· π stacking interactions in the structure of 1 , which results in a 2D architecture. An interesting feature of compound 2 is the presence of C–H ··· π edge‐to‐face interactions.

Experimental and Theoretical Studies of 4‐(1‐benzyl‐5‐methyl‐1H‐1,2,3‐triazol‐4‐yl)‐6‐(2,4‐dichlorophenyl)pyrimidin‐2‐amine: A Potential Antibacterial Agent

The title compound ( 1 ), 4‐(1‐benzyl‐5‐methyl‐1H‐1,2,3‐triazol‐4‐yl)‐6‐(2,4‐dichlorophenyl)pyrimidin‐2‐amine (C₂₀H₁₆Cl₂N₆), was synthesized and structurally characterized by elemental analysis, ¹H NMR and ¹³C NMR and single crystal X‐ray diffraction. The compound crystallizes as a colourless needle shaped in the triclinic system, space group P‐1 with cell constants: a = 10.7557(11) Å, b = 12.7078(17) Å, c = 15.511(2) Å, α = 68.029(4)0, β = 86.637(5)0, γ = 87.869(4)0; V = 1962.4 (4) ų, Z = 4. There are two structurally similar but crystallographically independent molecules (A and B) in the asymmetric unit of the title compound, which is linked via N‐H…Cl hydrogen bond. An intramolecular C‐H…N hydrogen also occurs in each molecule. In the crystal, each of independent molecules forms a centrosymmetric dimer with an R²₂(8) ring motifs through a pair of N‐H…N hydrogen bonds. These dimers are further connected by intermolecular N‐H…Cl and C‐H…Cl hydrogen bonds, forming an infinite two dimensional supramolecular network lying parallel to the [010] plane. The molecular geometry was also optimized using density functional theory (DFT/B3LYP) method with the 6‐311G (d, p) basis set and compared with the experimental data. Mulliken population analyses on atomic charges, HOMO‐LUMO energy levels, Molecular electrostatic potential and chemical reactivity of the title compound were investigated by theoretical calculations. The thermo dynamical properties of the title compound at different temperature have been calculated and corresponding relations between the properties and temperature have also been obtained. The in vitro antibacterial activity has been screened against Gram‐positive (Bacillus cerus and Staphylococcus epidermidis) and Gram‐Negative (Escherichia coli, Acinetobacter baumannii and Proteus vulgaris). The results revealed that the compound exhibited good to moderate antibacterial activity.     

The ESI CAD fragmentations of protonated 2,4,6‐tris(benzylamino)‐ and tris(benzyloxy)‐1,3,5‐triazines involve benzyl–benzyl interactions: a DFT study

The electrospray ionization collisionally activated dissociation (CAD) mass spectra of protonated 2,4,6‐tris(benzylamino)‐1,3,5‐triazine (1) and 2,4,6‐tris(benzyloxy)‐1,3,5‐triazine (6) show abundant product ion of m/z 181 (C₁₄H₁₃⁺). The likely structure for C₁₄H₁₃⁺ is α‐[2‐methylphenyl]benzyl cation, indicating that one of the benzyl groups must migrate to another prior to dissociation of the protonated molecule. The collision energy is high for the ‘N’ analog (1) but low for the ‘O’ analog (6) indicating that the fragmentation processes of 1 requires high energy. The other major fragmentations are [M + H‐toluene]⁺ and [M + H‐benzene]⁺ for compounds 1 and 6, respectively. The protonated 2,4,6‐tris(4‐methylbenzylamino)‐1,3,5‐triazine (4) exhibits competitive eliminations of p‐xylene and 3,6‐dimethylenecyclohexa‐1,4‐diene. Moreover, protonated 2,4,6‐tris(1‐phenylethylamino)‐1,3,5‐triazine (5) dissociates via three successive losses of styrene. Density functional theory (DFT) calculations indicate that an ion/neutral complex (INC) between benzyl cation and the rest of the molecule is unstable, but the protonated molecules of 1 and 6 rearrange to an intermediate by the migration of a benzyl group to the ring ‘N’. Subsequent shift of a second benzyl group generates an INC for the protonated molecule of 1 and its product ions can be explained from this intermediate. The shift of a second benzyl group to the ring carbon of the first benzyl group followed by an H‐shift from ring carbon to ‘O’ generates the key intermediate for the formation of the ion of m/z 181 from the protonated molecule of 6. The proposed mechanisms are supported by high resolution mass spectrometry data, deuterium‐labeling and CAD experiments combined with DFT calculations. Copyright © 2012 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

Two coordination polymers, [Cd(Heidc)(bpp)]_n ( 1 ) and [Zn₃ (eidc)₂(bpp)(H₂O)₂] · 2H₂O}_n ( 2 ) (H₃eidc = 2‐ethyl‐4,5‐imidazole dicarboxylic acid, bpp = 1,3‐bis(4‐pyridyl)propane) were hydrothermally synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis, IR, spectroscopy single‐crystal X‐ray diffraction, and thermogravimetric analyses. Compound 1 features a 2D layer formed by C–H ··· π stacking interactions between adjacent chains, whereas compound 2 shows a 3D (8³)₂(8⁵.10)‐tfc framework constructed of the 2D (6,3) layer. The result demonstrates that the central metal atoms play a key role in governing the coordination motifs. Moreover, solid‐state properties such as thermal stabilities and photoluminescence of 1 and 2 were also investigated.     

Incorporating two different chromophores onto a silicon atom: the crystal structure and photophysical properties of 9‐{4‐[(9,9‐dimethyl‐9H‐fluoren‐2‐yl)dimethylsilyl]phenyl}‐9H‐carbazole

The crystal structure of the title bifunctional silicon‐bridged compound, C₃₅H₃₁NSi, (I), has been determined. The compound crystallizes in the centrosymmetric space group P2₁/c. In the crystal structure, the pairs of aryl rings in the two different chromophores, i.e. 9‐phenyl‐9H‐carbazole and 9,9‐dimethyl‐9H‐fluorene, are positioned orthogonally. In the crystal packing, no classical hydrogen bonding is observed. UV–Vis absorption and fluorescence emission spectra show that the central Si atom successfully breaks the electronic conjugation between the two different chromophores, and this was further analysed by density functional theory (DFT) calculations.     

Synthesis,Structure, and Solution Study of a Mercury(II) Complex with the Ligand [1‐(2‐Methoxyphenyl)‐3‐(4‐chlorophenyl)]triazene

The title ligand, [1‐(2‐methoxyphenyl)‐3‐(4‐chlorophenyl)]triazene, H L ( 1 ), was prepared. In a reaction with Hg(NO₃)₂ it forms the complex [Hg(C₂₆H₂₂Cl₂N₆O₂)], [Hg L ₂] ( 2 ). Both compounds were characterized by means of X‐ray crystallography, CHN analysis, FT‐IR, ¹H NMR, and ¹³C NMR spectroscopy. In the structure of compound 1 , two independent fragments are present in the unit cell. They exhibit trans arrangement about the –N=N– double bond. The dihedral angles between two benzene rings in both fragments are 4.36 and 18.79 Å, respectively. Non‐classic C–H ··· N hydrogen bonding and C–H ··· π interactions form a layer structure along the crystallographic ab plane [110]. In compound 2 , the Hg^II atom is hexacoordinated by two tridentate [1‐(2‐methoxyphenyl)‐3‐(4‐chlorophenyl)]triazenide ligands through a N₂O₂ set. In addition, in the structure of 2 , monomeric complexes are connected to each other by C–H ··· π stacking interactions, resulting in a 2D architecture. These C–H ··· π edge‐to‐face interactions are present with H ··· π distances of 3.156 and 3.027 Å. The results of studies of the stoichiometry and formation of complex 2 in methanol solution were found to support its solid state stoichiometry.     

DNA interaction,cytotoxicity and molecular structure of cobalt complex of 4‐amino‐N‐(6‐chloropyridazin‐3‐yl)benzene sulfonamide in the presence of secondary ligand pyridine

Novel cobalt complex of 4‐amino‐N‐(6‐chloropyridazin‐3‐yl)benzene sulfonamide (sulfachloropyridazine) has been synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis, FT‐IR spectroscopy and magnetic susceptibility (VSM). Cobalt complex of Sulfachloropyridazine (Co‐SCP) crystallized in monoclinic space group P2₁/n with Z = 4. The structure is solved by direct method and refined to R = 0.099 for 4720 reflections with I ?4σ(I). The results of FT‐IR spectra suggest the binding of cobalt atom to the sulfonamide ligand which is in agreement with the crystal structure determination. In crystal structure, molecule is linked via, C‐H … π, C‐Cl … π and π … π intermolecular interactions. The computational studies like the optimization energy and root means square deviation compare with single crystal structure, frontier molecular orbital (Homo‐Lumo energy) and binding energy of the Co‐SCP has been carried out using DFT/B3LYP level of theory in gaseous phase. Hirshfeld surfaces and the 2D‐fingerprint analysis are performed to study the nature of interactions and their measurable contributions towards crystal packing. The interaction of the complex with DNA is investigated using viscosity measurement and absorption titration studies. The result shows the complex bind to DNA with intercalative mode with high DNA‐binding constant (K_b). Also, in vivo and in vitro cytotoxic studies are performed using S. pombe cells and brine shrimp lethality bioassay. DNA‐cleavage study shows better cleaving ability of the complex.     

catena‐Poly[[silver(I)‐μ‐[9,10‐bis(1H‐benzimidazol‐1‐ylmethyl)anthracene]‐κ2N3:N3′] bis(nitrato‐κO)silver(I)]

Yellow needle‐shaped crystals of the title compound, {[Ag(C₃₀H₂₂N₄)][Ag(NO₃)₂]}_n, were obtained by the reaction of AgNO₃ and 9,10‐bis(benzimidazol‐1‐ylmethyl)anthracene (L) in a 2:1 ratio. The asymmetric unit consists of two Ag^I cations, one half L ligand and one nitrate anion. One Ag^I cation occupies a crystallographic inversion centre and links two N‐atom donors of two distinct L ligands to form an infinite one‐dimensional coordination polymer. The second Ag^I cation lies on a crystallographic twofold axis and is coordinated by two O‐atom donors of two nitrate anions to form an [Ag(NO₃)₂]⁻ counter‐ion. The polymeric chains are linked into a supramolecular framework via weak Ag...O [3.124 (5) Å] and Ag...π (2.982 Å) interactions (π is the centroid of an outer anthracene benzene ring). The π interactions contain two short Ag...C contacts [2.727 (6) and 2.765 (6) Å], which can be considered to define Ag–η²‐anthracene bonding interactions. In comparison with a previously reported binuclear Ag^I complex [Du, Hu, Zhang, Zeng & Bu (2008). CrystEngComm, 10 , 1866–1874], this new one‐dimensional coordination polymer was obtained by changing the metal–ligand ratio during the synthesis.     

4‐(2,5‐Dioxo‐2,5‐dihydro‐1H‐pyrrol‐1‐yl)benzoic acid: X‐ray and DFT‐calculated structure

In the title compound, C₁₁H₇NO₄, there is a dihedral angle of 45.80 (7)° between the planes of the benzene and maleimide rings. The presence of O—H...O hydrogen bonding and weak C—H...O interactions allows the formation of R₃³(19) edge‐connected rings parallel to the (010) plane. Structural, spectroscopic and theoretical studies were carried out. Density functional theory (DFT) optimized structures at the B3LYP/6–311 G(d,p) and 6–31++G(d,p) levels are compared with the experimentally determined molecular structure in the solid state. Additional IR and UV theoretical studies allowed the presence of functional groups and the transition bands of the system to be identified.
