The synthesis of 5-azido-3-methyl-1-phenyl-1H-pyrazolo[4,3-e][1,2,4]triazine 2 and 7-methyl-5-phenyl-1H-pyrazolo[4,3-e]tetrazolo[4,5-b][1,2,4]triazine 3 is described and the crystal and molecular structure of the latter is reported. This compound crystallizes in the monoclinic system, space group P2₁/n, with cell constants a = 11.607(2) Å, b = 7.982(1) Å, c = 13.147(2) Å, = 110.60(1), Z = 4, T = 293 K and D_cal = 1.470 g cm^–3. The structure was solved by direct methods and refined to R value of 0.0368 for 1906 reflections. The X-ray analysis revealed that the linear form of the tetrazolo-fused ring system of 3 exists in the crystal. The molecule as a whole has an almost planar conformation stabilized by the short intramolecular NsH interaction. The molecular packing in the crystal is determined by the van der Waals forces only.Part 26 in 1,2,4-triazines in organic synthesis. For part 25 see Mojzych et al.¹

Refluxing 2,3-dichloromaleic anhydride with p-anisidine in benzene with water removal gives the condensation product 2,3-dichloro-N-(p-MeOC₆H₄)maleimide (1) 75% yield. This new maleimide compound reacts with added ethanethiol in the presence of Et₃N or DBU to furnish the bidentate sulfide ligand 2,3-bis(ethylthio)-N-(p-MeOC₆H₄)maleimide (2) in 85% yield. Each product has been characterized in solution by IR, NMR, and UV-vis spectroscopies, and the solid-state structure of 2,3-bis(ethylthio)-N-(p-MeOC₆H₄)maleimide was unequivocally established by single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. 2,3-bis(Ethylthio)-N-(p-MeOC₆H₄)maleimide crystallizes in the monoclinic space group C2/c, a = 20.035(3)Å, b = 9.188(1)Å, c = 16.887(2)Å, = 93.696(2)°, V = 3102.3(8)ų, Z = 8, and D_calcd = 1.385 mg/m³; R = 0.0268, R_w = 0.0676 for 2025 reflections with I > 2 (I). The nature of the LUMO in 2,3-bis(ethylthio)-N-(p-MeOC₆H₄)maleimide (2) has been determined by extended Hückel molecular orbital calculations, and these data are discussed relative to the cyclic voltammetry results and other structurally relevant compounds prepared in our labs.

Synthesis and X-ray structural investigations have been carried out for the two title compounds C₁₄H₁₀N₂O (3a) and C₂₂H₂₆N₂O (3b). Compound 3a crystallizes in the monoclinic space group P2₁/c, with a = 3.843(1) Å, b = 24.618(5) Å, c = 11.318(2) Å, = 92.61(3), V = 1069.7(4) Å,³ and Z = 4. Compound 3b crystallizes in the triclinic space group P-1, with a = 9.004(2) Å, b = 9.447(2) Å, c = 11.713(2) Å, = 76.70(3), = 83.12(3), = 82.16(3), V = 956.5(3) Å,³ and Z = 2. Both stilbazole derivatives have Z-geometry about the ethylene bridge which links the heterocyclic and aromatic rings. The molecular skeleton of 3a is slightly non-planar: the dihedral angles between the acrylonitrile linkage and the pyridine ring, and between this linkage and the p-hydroxyphenyl ring are 7.2(2) and 4.1(2), respectively. The molecular skeleton of 3b is less planar: the values of similar dihedral angles are 17.0(2) and 20.8(2), respectively. In the crystal of 3a, the molecules are packed in stacks along the a axis with head-to-head orientation. Intermolecular hydrogen bonds O=H s N and C=H s N link molecules into sheets parallel to (100) plane. In the crystals of 3b, the molecules have a head-to-tail orientation and intermolecular hydrogen bonds O=H s N link the molecules into infinite chains along [01-1] direction.     

A new polymorph of tri(<Emphasis Type="Italic">p</Emphasis>-tolyl)boroxine

A new orthorhombic polymorph of tri(p-tolyl)boroxine (Pmn2₁) with relatively short intermolecular B–O distances of 3.321 Å was crystallized from CDCl₃ at ambient temperature. The crystal structure of the orthorhombic polymorph of tri(p-tolyl)boroxine shows the shortest intermolecular B–O contact yet found in boroxines. The cell dimensions of the orthorhombic polymorph of tri(p-tolyl)boroxine are a = 21.888(4) Å, b = 9.304(2) Å, and c = 4.7804(10) Å. The structural features of the orthorhombic polymorph of tri(p-tolyl)boroxine are quite different from a previously reported monoclinic (Beckett et al., J. Organomet. Chem. 1997, 535, 33–41) but similar to that of tri(p-bromophenyl)boroxine (Avent et al., Coll. Czech. Chem. Commun. 2002, 67, 1051–1060). Obviously, electronic effects of substituents on the boron centers influence the structural features of substituted boroxines less than discussed in earlier reports (Boese et al., Angew. Chem. 1987, 99, 239–241).

The tris-2-bromo analog, 2, has a = 7.6569(11) Å, b = 9.0922(13) Å, c = 14.614(2) Å, = 79.286(2), = 81.777(2), = 85.401(2), and V = 987.9(2) ų with Z = 2, and d_calc = 1.762 Mg/m³. Lithium–halogen exchange experiments conducted in tetrahydrofuran at –78C using n-butyl lithium revealed that no exchange occurred for the tris-2-chloro compound, but did occur for the tris-2-bromo analog to yield tribenzylamine upon quench and work-up.

In order to investigate the intramolecular [4 + 2] cycloaddition, we prepared some new tertiary N-(5-substituted-2-furfuryl)-N-prop-2-ynyl-p-toluidines [Hergold-Brundić et al., Acta Cryst C56:e520, 2000; Mance and Jakopčić, Mol Divers 9:229, 2005; Mance, “unpublished results”] by the alkylation of secondary N-(5-substituted-2-furfuryl)-p-toluidines with the propargyl-bromide [Mance and Šindler-Kulyk, Synth Commun 26:923, 1996]. In the course of preparation of N-(5-methoxy-2-furfuryl)-N-prop-2-ynyl-p-toluidine [Mance, “unpublished results”], besides the main product (compound 1) (Scheme 1) we obtained N,N-di(prop-2-ynyl)-p-toluidine (compound 2) as the colourless crystals. The title compound 2, N,N-di(prop-2-ynyl)-p-toluidine, C₁₃H₁₃N, crystallizes in monoclinic C 2/c space group with unit cell parameters: a = 19.5319(9) ?, b = 7.5230(3) ?, c = 15.9000(7) ?, β = 112.554(5)°, V = 2157.64(18) ?³, Z = 8. The crystal structure is dominated by van der Waals forces only. The bond distances around amine N atom correspond to σ dominated bonds (1.467(2), 1.462(2) and 1.419(2) ?). The angles sum around amine N atom is in accord with sp³ hybridization (343°).

The methionyl side chain is disordered with two possible position for its C^γ, S^δ, and C^ε atoms. The methionly side chain is twisted with χ¹ = −86.4(7), χ² = 177.5(9), and χ³ = 116.6(2)^∘ for the major conformer A. The asparaginyl side chain is also twisted with χ¹ = −76.3(5) and χ² = 102.3(6)^∘. The crystal structure is stabilized by an intermolecular network of hydrogen bonds involving the N-terminal amino group and the ε-terminal amino group of asn residue as donors and the carboxyl oxygens of the C-terminal and the peptide carbonyl oxygens as acceptor atoms.

Abstract  

Reaction of o-aminophenylbenzimidazole with p-dimethylaminobenzaldehyde yielded 6-p-dimethylaminophenyl-5,6-dihydrobenzoimidazo[1,2-c]quinazoline, which was characterized by elemental analysis, IR, UV–Vis, ¹H NMR, ¹³C NMR, mass spectral studies and X-ray crystal structure analysis. Studies on the antimicrobial activity of the compound revealed that it is active against fungus Yeast but not Bacillus subtilis.

4-(E)-2-[3-(3-[(E)-2-(4-cyanophenyl)-1-diazenyl]hexahydro-1-pyrimidinylmethyl)hexahydro-1-pyrimidinyl]-1-diazenylbenzonitrile (1) has been synthesized by reaction of p-cyanobenzene diazonium chloride with a mixture of formaldehyde and 1,3-propanediamine. The crystal structure has been determined by single crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. The bis-triazene (1) adopts a folded conformation, similar to previously studied ethylenediamine analogues, and there is evidence of -stacking in the crystal packing. The two planar phenyltriazenyl groups are almost parallel, forming an angle of 6.6(1), and display weak intermolecular s interactions between molecules. This result establishes the structure of the product of this diazonium coupling reaction as the 1-(1-hexahydropyimidinylmethyl)hexahydropyrimidine derivative and not the alternate tetraazabicyclo[5.5.1]tridecane derivative.

Abstract In the crystal structure of the nitrate salt, columns of di-cationic macrocycles, each disposed about a center of inversion, are interspersed by pairs of nitrate anions that form charged-assisted N–H···O hydrogen-bonding interactions, reinforced by C–H···O contacts. The topology of the resulting supramolecular architecture is that of a linear chain and these associate via further weak C–H···O contacts. In the structure of the acetate trihydrate, di-cationic macrocycles are circumscribed by 32-membered rings defined by O–H···O interactions, involving the acetate anions and solvent water molecules. Systematic variations in the geometric parameters in the molecular structures are correlated with the influence of intermolecular interactions. The nitrate crystallizes in the monoclinic space group P2₁/n with a = 8.3524(11) ?, b = 12.5497(16) ?, c = 11.1208(16) ?, β = 103.180(3)°, and Z = 2.
