Crystal structure of 2‐(2'‐hydroxyphenyl)‐6‐tributylstannyl‐4‐(3H )‐quinazolinone and 2‐(2'‐hydroxyphenyl)‐6‐iodo‐4‐(3H)‐quinazolinone

The structures of the title compounds C₂₆H₃₇N₂O₂Sn ( I ) and C₁₄H₉IN₂O₂ ( II ) were determined by single‐crystal X‐ray diffraction technique. Compound I crystallizes in the triclinic space group P1 with a = 9.560(3) Å, b = 16.899(6) Å, c = 17.872(5) Å, α = 65.957(7)°, β = 83.603(5)°, γ ( = 75.242(5)°, V = 2549.8(13) ų, Z = 4, and D =1.374 g/cm³. The compound consists of a quinazolinone ring with phenol and tributylstannyl moieties. Compound II crystallizes in the monoclinic space group P2₁/c with a = 7.6454(12) Å, b = 5.9270(9) Å, c = 27.975(4) Å; α = 90°, β = 95.081(3)°, γ = 90°, V = 1262.7(3) ų, Z = 4, and D = 1.915 g/cm³. The compound consists of a quinazolinone ring with phenol and iodine substituents. For both I and II , the short intramolecular O–H…N and two long intermolecular N–H…O hydrogen bonds are highly effective in holding the molecular system in a stable state.
