Crystal and molecular structure of 2-(2′-chloro-5′-nitrostyryl)benzoselenazole

The title compound C₁₅H₉ClN₂O₂Se (nsbse) is orthorhombic, witha=6.823(2),b=7.860(2),c=26.349(5) Å,Z=4,D _x =1.709,(MoK)=28.3 cm^–1,F(000)=720,T=298K in space groupP2₁2₁2₁.

Structure of 2,2′-anhydro-3′-O-acetyl-2′thio-1-β-D-arabinofuranosylcytosine hydrochloride1

2,2-Anhydro-3-O-acetyl-2-thio-1--D-arabinofuranosylcytosine hydrochloride crystallizes in space group P2₁2₁2₁ witha=10.373(1),b=14.517(2),c=9.496(1) Å. Reflections were measured on a diffractometer and the structure was solved by direct methods. Least-squares refinement converged atR=0.056 andR _w =0.063. The study of this crystal structure showed that the alterations in the geometry of 2,2-anhydro-1--D-arabinofuranosylcytosine when the bridge oxygen is replaced by sulfur are localized in the region of the fused ring. The angle at the bridge atom decreases to nearly 90°, with concomitant enlargements of about 5°–7° in the angles opposite to the bridge atom. Angle C(1)-N(1)-C(6) decreases by 4°. Also, the amount of double bond character in the bond formed by C(2) and the bridge atom decreases. A survey of the conformational features of S,2-cyclonucleosides and comparison with O,2-cyclonucleosidcs showed that their preferred conformations are the same. However, S,2-cyclonucleosides exhibit a wider range of P and values. This correlates with a greater ease of the sulfur containing five-membered ring to pucker as compared to the oxygen-cyclo ring.This paper is part of the authors' dissertation (Vitali, 1986).     

Three-dimensional structure of thymidine phosphorylase from E. coli in complex with 3′-azido-2′-fluoro-2′,3′-dideoxyuridine

The three-dimensional structures of thymidine phosphorylase from E. coli containing the bound sulfate ion in the phosphate-binding site and of the complex of thymidine phosphorylase with sulfate in the phosphate-binding site and the inhibitor 3′-azido-2′-fluoro-2′,3′-dideoxyuridine (N₃F-ddU) in the nucleoside-binding site were determined at 1.55 and 1.50 Å resolution, respectively. The amino-acid residues involved in the ligand binding and the hydrogen-bond network in the active site occupied by a large number of bound water molecules are described. A comparison of the structure of thymidine phosphorylase in complex with N₃F-ddU with the structure of pyrimidine nucleoside phosphorylase from St. Aureus in complex with the natural substrate thymidine (PDB_ID: 3H5Q) shows that the substrate and the inhibitor in the nucleoside-binding pocket have different orientations. It is suggested that the position of N₃F-ddU can be influenced by the presence of the azido group, which prefers a hydrophobic environment. In both structures, the active sites of the subunits are in the open conformation.     

Synthesis and X-ray structure of 5′-methoxy-2,4,6-trimethyl-2′-nitrosobiphenyl

Structural study of nitrovinylindoles: (I) 2-methyl-3-(2′-methyl-2′-nitrovinyl)indole and (II) 3-(2′-nitrovinyl)indole

Compound (I) is 2-methyl-3-(2-methyl-2-nitrovinyl)indole, C₁₂H₁₂N₂O₂,M _r=216.24, monoclinic,P2₁/n,a=16.710(1),b=7.627(1),c=17.646(1) Å,=104.8(1)°,V=2174.7(1) ų,Z=8.D _x=1.321 g cm^–3, MoK, =0.71073 Å,=0.858 cm^–1,F(OOO)=912, room temperature,R=0.061 for 1956 observed reflections. Compound (II) is 3-(2-nitrovinyl)indole, C₁₀H₈N₂O₂,M _r=188.18, monoclinic,P2₁/n,a=10.178(1),b=10.608(1),c=8.411(1) Å,=105.5(2)°,V=875.0(1) ų,Z=4,D _x=1.4284 g cm^–3, CuK, =1.5418 Å,=8.068 cm^–1,F(000)=392, room temperature,R=0.040 for 1330 observed reflections. Compounds (I) and (II) have a similar geometry, the only significant difference lying in the rotation of the nitrovinyl chain. This feature could be responsible for the difference in biological activity. In both compounds, the molecules are associated, forming charge-transfer complexes.     

X-ray crystal structure of 2-hydroxy-2′-(1,4-bisoxo-6-hexanol)-1,1′-biphenyl

The X-ray crystal structure of 2-hydroxy-2-(1,4-bisoxo-6-hexanol)-1,1-biphenyl, 3, is presented. This molecule crystallizes in the monoclinic space group P2₁/n (a = 9.440(2), b = 12.679(3), c = 11.679(3) Å = 94.60(2)° V = 1382.5(5) ų; Z = 4). One of the unique features of the X-ray structure of 3 is the intramolecular hydrogen bonding. The hydrogens of the phenolic and hydroxy groups occupies bridging positions via hydrogen bonding to an ether oxygen (O₁) and a phenolic oxygen (O₄), respectively. This hydrogen bonding does not affect the interplanar angle between phenyl rings (49.34°), which is in the range expected for ortho-disubstituted biphenyl compounds. The hydrogen bonding of this type explains why it is difficult to alkylate both phenoxy groups of 2,2-biphenol with tetrahydropyranyl protected 2-(2-chloroethoxy)ethanol.     

Mechanochromic Photoluminescent Liquid Crystals Containing 5,5′-Bis(2-phenylethynyl)-2,2′-bithiophene

5,5′-Bis(2-phenylethynyl)-2,2′-bithiophene derivative 1 containing dendritic moieties linked through amide groups was synthesized. Compound 1 exhibits a rectangular columnar phase on slow cooling from the isotropic liquid. In contrast, a cubic phase is formed as a metastable liquid-crystalline phase by rapid cooling of the isotropic melt. Mechanical shearing induces a cubic–columnar phase transition, accompanied by the change of a photoluminescent color from yellow-green to green. The infrared spectra of 1 suggest that the mechanical stimuli can induce the partial dissociation of the hydrogen bond. This may lead to more disordering of the π-stacks of chromophores.

5-(thien-2-yl) uracil analogs: 5-(5-methylthien-2-yl)-2′-deoxyuridine, 5-(5-thien-2-yl)-2′-deoxyuridine,and 5-(5-bromothien-2-yl)-2′-deoxyuridine

Space group, unit/cell parameters and finalR indices are:I, monoclinic,P2₁,a=9.105(2),b=20.819(2),c=7.932(2) Å, =98.79(2)°,R=5.7%;II, monoclinic,P2₁,a=8.720(4),b=20.793(4),c=7.884(4) Å, =95.06(2)°,R=5.8%;III, monoclinic,P2₁,a=9.260(2),b=41.655(7),c=7.926(2) Å, =97.996(13)°,R=9.4%. Structural properties of the title compounds are compared with those of 5-(5-chlorothien-2-yl)-2-deoxyuridine (IV) previously reported in order to explain their affinity for HSV-1 thymidine kinase and their eventual interaction with viral DNA polymerase. The main structural features observed are the coplanarity of the uracil and thienyl cycles stabilized by a S–O intramolecular interaction and the formation of dimeric intermolecular H bonds between two uracil moieties.

Synthesis and Crystal Structure Determination of Methyl 2-acetyl-5′-phenyl-2H-spiro[benzo[d]isothiazole-3,3′-pyrazole]-1,1-dioxide-2′(4′H)-carboxylate and Methyl 2-acetyl-5′-(2-thienyl)-2H-spiro[benzo[d]isothiazole-3,3′-pyrazole]-1,1-dioxide-2′(4′H)-carboxylate

Abstract  

Dilithiated C(α), N-carbomethoxyhydrazones were condensed with lithiated methyl 2-(aminosulfonyl)benzoate to afford intermediates that were isolated and not characterized but cyclized with acetic anhydride, which also resulted in N-acetylation. The X-ray crystal structure determinations of methyl 2-acetyl-5′-phenyl-2H-spiro[benzo[d]isothiazole-3,3′-pyrazole]-1,1-dioxide-2′(4′H)-carboxylate and methyl 2-acetyl-5′-(2-thienyl)-2H-spiro[benzo[d]isothiazole-3,3′-pyrazole]-1,1-dioxide-2′(4′H)-carboxylate products were a follow up for absorption spectra, and they confirmed their structures. Mechanistic intermediates to describe the reaction may include C-acylated intermediates that cyclize to spiro(N-benzoisothiazole dioxide-pyrazole) instead of N-carbomethoxypyrazole-ortho-benzenesulfonamides.

Structures of NN′-ethylenebis(monothioacetylacetoneiminato)nitrosylcobalt and NN′-ethylenebis(2-hydroxyacetophenoneiminato)nitrosylcobalt

The cobalt atom in [Co(NO)(sacacen)] lies just above the plane defined by the SNNS donor atoms of the quadridentate ligand, and the nitrosyl group occupies the apical position. A similar geometry is defined by the ONNO donor atoms and the NO group in [Co(NO)(7-Mesalen)]. The Co-N-O angles are strongly bent, as predicted from¹⁵N-nmr studies (127.2(6)°[Co(NO)(sacacen)] and 127.4(3)°[Co(NO)(7-Mesalen)]). Both nitrosyls crystallize in the monoclinic system. For [Co(NO)(sacacen)],a=8.501,b=12.673,c=13.866 Å,=95.00°,Z=4 and space groupP2₁/c. The structure was determined by the heavy-atom method, usingMo K diffractometer data, and refined by full matrix least squares toR=0.062 for 2920 observed reflections.
