Synthesis and crystal structure investigation of pyridine‐2‐(3′‐mercaptopropanoic acid)‐N ‐oxide

Pyridine‐2‐(3′‐mercaptopropanoic acid)‐N ‐oxide (I), is a higher homologue of 1‐oxopyridinium‐2‐thioacetic acid (II) [1]. It crystallizes in monoclinic space group P2₁ with a = 9.2168(2) Å, b = 4.1423(2) Å, c = 11.3904(4) Å, β = 98.65(2)°, V = 429.93(3) ų and Z = 2. The least‐squares refinement gave residual index R = 0.024 for 1070 observed reflections. The introduction of an additional methylene group in (II) causes a flip in the carboxylic acid group of (I) that facilitates the molecules to align infinite antiparallel chains through strong C–H···O interactions. The molecules are interlinked by O–H···O hydrogen bonding across the chains and forming an infinite screw chain along y‐direction. The molecular packing is stabilized by O–H···O and C–H···O hydrogen bonding and π‐π electron interactions. This is an important facet of the crystal packing. (© 2007 WILEY‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co.

Preparation and crystallographic characterization of crystalline modifications of 3,4:9,10‐perylenetetracarboxylic dianhydride at room temperature

3,4:9,10‐Perylenetetracarboxylic dianhydride (PTCDA) powder obtained from Sigma‐Aldrich was purified by three cycles of temperature gradient sublimation in an evacuated quartz glass tube providing variable conditions. By means of X‐ray diffraction (XRD) analysis, a crystallographic characterization of the powders obtained during the sublimation process and selected single crystals was carried out evidencing the presence of a major α‐ and a minor β‐PTCDA component in all samples. Lattice parameters of high precision were obtained for α‐PTCDA (a = 3.73283(4) Å, b = 12.0328(6) Å, c = 17.3998(4) Å, β = 98.689(2)°, V = 772.57(4) ų and d₁₀₂ = 3.219(3) Å) by whole‐X‐ray‐powder‐pattern‐fitting of the experimental XRD pattern using the Le Bail approach. Employing a (001) KCl wafer as substrate for the material purification results in formation of single phase α‐PTCDA accompanied by a decrease in the size of the crystallites which is attributed to the presumed lower temperature of the KCl wafers.

The unit cell contains two crystallographically independent [Hg(sac)2(pyet)] units in which the mercury(II) ion is tetrahedrally coordinated by two nitrogen atoms of two sac ligands, and one nitrogen and one oxygen atoms of one neutral pyet ligands. The pyet acts as a bidentate N‐ and O‐donor ligand forming a six‐membered chelate ring, while sac behaves as a monodentate N‐donor ligand. The average bite angle of the pyet ligand is 75.8(5)°. The Hg‐N_sac bond distances are in the range 2.0874(18) and 2.1931(18) Å, whereas the Hg‐N_pyet and Hg‐O_pyet bond distances are 2.2452(19)‐2.3202(19) and 2.6036(17)‐2.5902(16) Å, respectively. The crystal exhibits two strong hydrogen bonds between the hydroxyl O atom of pyet and sulfonyl O atoms of sac and the C‐H…O type weak hydrogen bonds between H atoms of the aromatic rings of the pyet and the sulfonyl O atoms of the sac ligands. Furthermore, packing of the molecules in the solid‐state results in aromatic π‐π interactions associated with the aromatic rings of sac‐sac and py‐py.
