Tolterodinium (+)‐(2R,3R)‐hydrogen tartrate

In the crystal structure of (R)‐N,N‐diisopropyl‐3‐(2‐hydroxy‐5‐methyl­phenyl)‐3‐phenyl­propyl­aminium (2R,3R)‐hydrogen tartrate, C₂₂H₃₂NO⁺·C₄H₅O₆⁻, the hydrogen tartrate anions are linked by O—H⋯O hydrogen bonds to form helical chains built from (9) rings. These chains are linked by the tolterodine molecules via N—H⋯O and O—H⋯O hydrogen bonds to form separate sheets parallel to the (101) plane.     

6,6′‐Di­methoxy‐2,2′‐[(1R,2R)‐cyclo­hexane‐1,2‐diyl­bis­(nitrilo­methyl­idyne)]­diphenol: three C—H⃛O hydrogen bonds generate a three‐dimensional framework

Molecules of the title compound, alternatively called (R,R)‐N,N′‐bis(3‐methoxysalicylidene)‐trans‐cyclohexane‐1,2‐diamine, C₂₂H₂₆N₂O₄, contain two intramolecular O—H⃛N hydrogen bonds and adopt a conformation with approximate twofold rotational symmetry. The mol­ecules are linked by three C—H⃛O hydrogen bonds [H⃛O = 2.45–2.55 Å, C⃛O = 3.329 (2)–3.398 (2) Å and C—H⃛O = 142–172°] into a continuous framework.     

Nonmerohedrally twinned 6‐amino‐3‐methyluracil‐5‐carbaldehyde: a hydrogen‐bonded ribbon containing four types of ring

In the title compound [systematic name: 6‐amino‐5‐formyl‐3‐methylpyrimidine‐2,4(1H,3H)‐dione], C₆H₇N₃O₃, the intramolecular dimensions provide evidence for some polarization of the electronic structure. There is an intramolecular N—H...O hydrogen bond; this and a combination of three intermolecular N—H...O hydrogen bonds generate an almost planar ribbon containing S(6), R₂²(4), R₂¹(6) and R₄⁴(16) rings. These ribbons are linked into sheets by a dipolar carbonyl–carbonyl interaction. The structure was refined as a nonmerohedral twin, with twin fractions 0.7924 (1) and 0.2076 (10).     

Concomitant polymorphism in the stereoselective synthesis of a β‐benzyl‐β‐hydroxyaspartate analogue

Two concomitant polymorphs, (I) and (II), of a β‐benzyl‐β‐hydroxyaspartate analogue [systematic name: dibenzyl 2‐benzyl‐2‐hydroxy‐3‐(4‐methylphenylsulfonamido)succinate], C₃₂H₃₁NO₇S, crystallize from a mixture of ethyl acetate and cyclohexane at ambient temperature. The structure of (I) has triclinic (P) symmetry and that of (II) monoclinic (P2₁/c) symmetry. Both crystal structures are made up of a stacking of homochiral racemic dimers (2S,3S and 2R,3R) which are internally connected by a similar R₂²(9) hydrogen‐bonding pattern consisting of intermolecular N—H...O and O—H...O hydrogen bonds. The centroid of the racemic dimer lies on an inversion centre. The main structural difference between the two polymorphs is the conformational orientation of two of the four aromatic rings present in the molecule. Polymorph (II) is found to be twinned by reticular merohedry with twin index 3 and twin fractions 0.854 (1) and 0.146 (1).     

(2S,3S)‐2,6‐Dimethylheptane‐1,3‐diol,the oxygenated side chain of 22(S)‐hydroxycholestrol,and its synthetic precursor (R)‐4‐benzyl‐3‐[(2R,3S)‐3‐hydroxy‐2,6‐dimethylheptanoyl]‐1,3‐oxazolidin‐2‐one

(2S,3S)‐2,6‐Dimethylheptane‐1,3‐diol, C₉H₂₀O₂, (I), was synthesized from the ketone (R)‐4‐benzyl‐3‐[(2R,3S)‐3‐hydroxy‐2,6‐dimethylheptanoyl]‐1,3‐oxazolidin‐2‐one, C₁₉H₂₇NO₄, (II), containing C atoms of known chirality. In both structures, strong hydrogen bonds between the hydroxy groups form tape motifs. The contribution from weaker C—H...O hydrogen bonds is much more evident in the structure of (II), which furthermore contains an example of a direct short Osp³...Csp² contact that represents a usually unrecognized type of intermolecular interaction.     

N‐(X‐Chlorophenyl)‐4‐hydroxy‐2‐methyl‐2H‐1,2‐benzothiazine‐3‐carboxamide 1,1‐dioxide (with X = 2 and 4)

The structures of N‐(2‐chlorophenyl)‐4‐hydroxy‐2‐methyl‐2H‐1,2‐benzothiazine‐3‐carboxamide 1,1‐dioxide and N‐(4‐chlorophenyl)‐4‐hydroxy‐2‐methyl‐2H‐1,2‐benzothiazine‐3‐carboxamide 1,1‐dioxide, both C₁₆H₁₃ClN₂O₄S, are stabilized by extensive intramolecular hydrogen bonds. The 4‐chloro derivative forms dimeric pairs of molecules lying about inversion centres as a result of intermolecular N—H...O hydrogen bonds, forming 14‐membered rings representing an R₂²(14) motif; the 2‐chloro derivative is devoid of any such intermolecular hydrogen bonds. The heterocyclic thiazine rings in both structures adopt half‐chair conformations.     

(1R,2R)‐1,2‐Di­phenyl‐1,2‐bis(8‐quinoline­sulfonyl­amino)ethyl­enedi­amine–acetone (1/1)

The crystal structure of the new chiral complex (1R,2R)‐1,2‐di­phenyl‐1,2‐bis(8‐quinoline­sulfonyl­amino)‐ ethyl­enedi­amine–acetone (1/1), C₃₂H₂₆N₄O₄S₂^.C₃H₆O, is reported. The conformation of the C₃₂H₂₆N₄O₄S₂ (BQSDA) mol­ecule is determined by a bifurcated N—H?N hydrogen‐bond system. The acetone of solvation is linked to the BQSDA mol­ecule by an N—H?O hydrogen bond.     

Hydrogen‐bonded dimers in 3‐amino‐4‐anilino‐1H‐isochromen‐1‐one and a hydrogen‐bonded sheet in 3‐amino‐4‐[methyl(phenyl)amino]‐1H‐isochromen‐1‐one

The molecules of 3‐amino‐4‐anilino‐1H‐isochromen‐1‐one, C₁₅H₁₂N₂O₂, (I), and 3‐amino‐4‐[methyl(phenyl)amino]‐1H‐isochromen‐1‐one, C₁₆H₁₄N₂O₂, (II), adopt very similar conformations, with the substituted amino group PhNR, where R = H in (I) and R = Me in (II), almost orthogonal to the adjacent heterocyclic ring. The molecules of (I) are linked into cyclic centrosymmetric dimers by pairs of N—H...O hydrogen bonds, while those of (II) are linked into complex sheets by a combination of one three‐centre N—H...(O)₂ hydrogen bond, one two‐centre C—H...O hydrogen bond and two C—H...π(arene) hydrogen bonds.     

A pair of diastereomeric 1:2 salts of (R)‐ and (S)‐2‐methylpiperazine with (2S,3S)‐tartaric acid

The crystal structures of a pair of diastereomeric 1:2 salts of (R)‐ and (S)‐2‐methylpiperazine with (2S,3S)‐tartaric acid, namely (R)‐2‐methylpiperazinediium bis[hydrogen (2S,3S)‐tartrate] monohydrate, (I), and (S)‐2‐methylpiperazinediium bis[hydrogen (2S,3S)‐tartrate] monohydrate, (II), both C₅H₁₄N₂²⁺·2C₄H₅O₆⁻·H₂O, each reveal the formation of well‐defined head‐to‐tail‐connected hydrogen tartrate chains; these chains are linked into a two‐dimensional sheet via intermolecular hydrogen bonds involving hydroxy groups and water molecules, resulting in a layer structure. The (R)‐2‐methylpiperazinediium ions lie between the hydrogen tartrate layers in the most stable equatorial conformation in (I), whereas in (II), these ions are in an unstable axial position inside the more interconnected layers and form a larger number of intermolecular hydrogen bonds than are observed in (I).     

(1R,3R,4S)‐1‐Benzyl‐3‐(tert‐butyldimethylsilyloxy)‐4‐(hydroxymethyl)pyrrolidine–borane: novel B—H...H—O hydrogen bonding

The absolute configuration of the title cis‐(1R,3R,4S)‐pyrrolidine–borane complex, C₁₈H₃₄BNO₂Si, was confirmed. Together with the related trans isomers (3S,4S) and (3R,4R), it was obtained unexpectedly from the BH₃·SMe₂ reduction of the corresponding chiral (3R,4R)‐lactam precursor. The phenyl ring is disordered over two conformations in the ratio 0.65:0.35. The crystallographic packing is dominated by the rarely found donor–acceptor hydroxy–borane O—H...H—B hydrogen bonds.     

Hydrogen bonding in 2‐amino‐4,6‐dimethoxypyrimidine, 2‐benzylamino‐4,6‐bis(benzyloxy)pyrimidine and 2‐amino‐4,6‐bis(N‐pyrrolidino)pyrimidine: chains of fused rings and a centrosymmetric dimer

Molecules of 2‐amino‐4,6‐di­methoxy­pyrimidine, C₆H₉N₃O₂, (I), are linked by two N—H?N hydrogen bonds [H?N 2.23 and 2.50 Å, N?N 3.106 (2) and 3.261 (2) Å, and N—H?N 171 and 145°] into a chain of fused rings, where alternate rings are generated by centres of inversion and twofold rotation axes. Adjacent chains are linked by aromatic π–π‐stacking interactions to form a three‐dimensional framework. In 2‐­benzylamino‐4,6‐bis(benzyloxy)pyrimidine, C₂₅H₂₃N₃O₂, (II), the mol­ecules are linked into centrosymmetric R(8) dimers by paired N—H?N hydrogen bonds [H?N 2.13 Å, N?N 2.997 (2) Å and N—H?N 170°]. Molecules of 2‐amino‐4,6‐bis(N‐pyrrolidino)­pyrimidine, C₁₂H₁₉N₅, (III), are linked by two N—H?N hydrogen bonds [H?N 2.34 and 2.38 Å, N?N 3.186 (2) and 3.254 (2) Å, and N—H?N 163 and 170°] into a chain of fused rings similar to that in (I).     

Axially Dissymmetric Chiral (R)‐N,W‐Bis(2‐hydroxy‐3,5‐ditert‐butyl‐arylmethyl)‐1, 1′‐binaphthalene‐2,2′‐diamine as Chiral Ligands in the Reaction of Diethylzinc to Aldehydes†

Chiral ligand (A)‐N,N′‐Bis(2‐hydroxy‐3,5‐di‐tert‐butyl‐arylmethyl)‐1,1′‐binaphthalene‐2,2′‐diamine derived from the reduction of Schiff base (R)‐2,2′‐bis (3,5‐di‐tert‐butyl‐2‐hydroxybenzylideneamino)‐1, 1′‐binaphthyl with LiAlH₄, is fairly effective in the asymmetric addition reaction of diethylzinc to aldehydes by which good yields (46%‐94%) of the corresponding sec‐alcohols can be obtained in moderate ee (51%‐79%) with R configuration for a variety of aldehydes.     

Hydrogen‐bonded ribbons in ethyl (E)‐3‐[2‐amino‐4,6‐bis(dimethylamino)pyrimidin‐5‐yl]‐2‐cyanoacrylate and 2‐[(2‐amino‐4,6‐di‐1‐piperidylpyrimidin‐5‐yl)methylene]malononitrile

The pyrimidine rings in ethyl (E)‐3‐[2‐amino‐4,6‐bis(dimethylamino)pyrimidin‐5‐yl]‐2‐cyanoacrylate, C₁₄H₂₀N₆O₂, (I), and 2‐[(2‐amino‐4,6‐di‐1‐piperidylpyrimidin‐5‐yl)methylene]malononitrile, C₁₈H₂₃N₇, (II), which crystallizes with Z′ = 2 in the space group, are both nonplanar with boat conformations. The molecules of (I) are linked by a combination of N—H...N and N—H...O hydrogen bonds into chains of edge‐fused R₂²(8) and R₄⁴(20) rings, while the two independent molecules in (II) are linked by four N—H...N hydrogen bonds into chains of edge‐fused R₂²(8) and R₂²(20) rings. This study illustrates both the readiness with which highly‐substituted pyrimidine rings can be distorted from planarity and the significant differences between the supramolecular aggregation in two rather similar compounds.     

Hydrogen‐bonding patterns in 3‐alkyl‐3‐hydroxyindolin‐2‐ones

The molecules of racemic 3‐benzoylmethyl‐3‐hydroxyindolin‐2‐one, C₁₆H₁₃NO₃, (I), are linked by a combination of N—H...O and O—H...O hydrogen bonds into a chain of centrosymmetric edge‐fused R₂²(10) and R₄⁴(12) rings. Five monosubstituted analogues of (I), namely racemic 3‐hydroxy‐3‐[(4‐methylbenzoyl)methyl]indolin‐2‐one, C₁₇H₁₅NO₃, (II), racemic 3‐[(4‐fluorobenzoyl)methyl]‐3‐hydroxyindolin‐2‐one, C₁₆H₁₂FNO₃, (III), racemic 3‐[(4‐chlorobenzoyl)methyl]‐3‐hydroxyindolin‐2‐one, C₁₆H₁₂ClNO₃, (IV), racemic 3‐[(4‐bromobenzoyl)methyl]‐3‐hydroxyindolin‐2‐one, C₁₆H₁₂BrNO₃, (V), and racemic 3‐hydroxy‐3‐[(4‐nitrobenzoyl)methyl]indolin‐2‐one, C₁₆H₁₂N₂O₅, (VI), are isomorphous in space group P. In each of compounds (II)–(VI), a combination of N—H...O and O—H...O hydrogen bonds generates a chain of centrosymmetric edge‐fused R₂²(8) and R₂²(10) rings, and these chains are linked into sheets by an aromatic π–π stacking interaction. No two of the structures of (II)–(VI) exhibit the same combination of weak hydrogen bonds of C—H...O and C—H...π(arene) types. The molecules of racemic 3‐hydroxy‐3‐(2‐thienylcarbonylmethyl)indolin‐2‐one, C₁₄H₁₁NO₃S, (VII), form hydrogen‐bonded chains very similar to those in (II)–(VI), but here the sheet formation depends upon a weak π–π stacking interaction between thienyl rings. Comparisons are drawn between the crystal structures of compounds (I)–(VII) and those of some recently reported analogues having no aromatic group in the side chain.     

Hydrogen bonding in C‐substituted nitroanilines: molecular ladders in 2‐trifluoromethyl‐4‐nitroaniline and sheets of R(12) and R(32) rings in 3‐trifluoromethyl‐4‐nitroaniline

In 2‐tri­fluoro­methyl‐4‐nitro­aniline, C₇H₅F₃N₂O₂, (I), the mol­ecules lie across a mirror plane in space group Pnma. The mol­ecules are linked by paired N—H?O hydrogen bonds to form a C(8)[R(6)] chain of rings, pairs of which are linked into a molecular ladder by a single C—H?O hydrogen bond. The isomeric 3‐tri­fluoro­methyl‐4‐nitro­aniline, (II), has Z′ = 2 in space group P2₁/c. Each mol­ecule is linked to four others by N—H?O hydrogen bonds to form sheets built from alternating R(12) and R(32) rings.     

Relative configuration,absolute configuration and absolute structure of three isomeric 8‐benzyl‐2‐[(4‐bromophenyl)(hydroxy)methyl]‐8‐azabicyclo[3.2.1]octan‐3‐ones

The title compounds, C₂₁H₂₂BrNO₂, are isomeric 8‐benzyl‐2‐[(4‐bromophenyl)(hydroxy)methyl]‐8‐azabicyclo[3.2.1]octan‐3‐ones. Compound (I), the (±)‐exo,syn‐(1RS,2SR,5SR,9SR) isomer, crystallizes in the hexagonal space group R, while compounds (II) [the (+)‐exo,anti‐(1R,2S,5S,9R) isomer] and (III) [the (±)‐exo,anti‐(1RS,2SR,5SR,9RS) isomer] crystallize in the orthorhombic space groups P2₁2₁2₁ and Pna2₁, respectively. The absolute configuration was determined for enantiomerically pure (II). For the noncentrosymmetric crystal of (III), its absolute structure was established. In the crystal structures of (I) and (II), an intramolecular hydrogen bond is formed between the hydroxy group and the heterocyclic N atom. In the crystal structure of racemic (III), hydrogen‐bonded chains of molecules are formed via intermolecular O—H...O interactions. Additionally, face‐to‐edge π–π interactions are present in the crystal structures of (I) and (II). In all three structures, the piperidinone rings adopt chair conformations and the N‐benzyl substituents occupy the equatorial positions.     

2‐Ethyl‐1‐[5‐(4‐methylphenyl)pyrazol‐3‐yl]‐3‐(thiophene‐2‐carbonyl)isothiourea: molecular ribbons containing three types of hydrogen‐bonded ring

The title compound, C₁₈H₁₈N₄OS₂, was prepared by reaction of S,S‐diethyl 2‐thenoylimidodithiocarbonate with 5‐amino‐3‐(4‐methylphenyl)‐1H‐pyrazole using microwave irradiation under solvent‐free conditions. In the molecule, the thiophene unit is disordered over two sets of atomic sites, with occupancies of 0.814 (4) and 0.186 (4), and the bonded distances provide evidence for polarization in the acylthiourea fragment and for aromatic type delocalization in the pyrazole ring. An intramolecular N—H...O hydrogen bond is present, forming an S(6) motif, and molecules are linked by N—H...O and N—H...N hydrogen bonds to form a ribbon in which centrosymmetric R₂²(4) rings, built from N—H...O hydrogen bonds and flanked by inversion‐related pairs of S(6) rings, alternate with centrosymmetric R₂²(6) rings built from N—H...N hydrogen bonds.     

Supramolecular hydrogen‐bonding patterns in two cocrystals of the N(7)–H tautomeric form of N6‐benzoyladenine: N6‐benzoyladenine–3‐hydroxypyridinium‐2‐carboxylate (1/1) and N6‐benzoyladenine–DL‐tartaric acid (1/1)

Two novel cocrystals of the N(7)—H tautomeric form of N⁶‐benzoyladenine (BA), namely N⁶‐benzoyladenine–3‐hydroxypyridinium‐2‐carboxylate (3HPA) (1/1), C₁₂H₉N₅O·C₆H₅NO₃, (I), and N⁶‐benzoyladenine–DL‐tartaric acid (TA) (1/1), C₁₂H₉N₅O·C₄H₆O₆, (II), are reported. In both cocrystals, the N⁶‐benzoyladenine molecule exists as the N(7)—H tautomer, and this tautomeric form is stabilized by intramolecular N—H...O hydrogen bonding between the benzoyl C=O group and the N(7)—H hydrogen on the Hoogsteen site of the purine ring, forming an S(7) motif. The dihedral angle between the adenine and phenyl planes is 0.94 (8)° in (I) and 9.77 (8)° in (II). In (I), the Watson–Crick face of BA (N6—H and N1; purine numbering) interacts with the carboxylate and phenol groups of 3HPA through N—H...O and O—H...N hydrogen bonds, generating a ring‐motif heterosynthon [graph set R₂²(6)]. However, in (II), the Hoogsteen face of BA (benzoyl O atom and N7; purine numbering) interacts with TA (hydroxy and carbonyl O atoms) through N—H...O and O—H...O hydrogen bonds, generating a different heterosynthon [graph set R₂²(4)]. Both crystal structures are further stabilized by π–π stacking interactions.     

The effect of hydrogen bonding on the conformations of 2‐(1H‐indol‐3‐yl)‐2‐oxoacetamide and 2‐(1H‐indol‐3‐yl)‐N,N‐dimethyl‐2‐oxoacetamide

In the title compounds, C₁₀H₈N₂O₂, (I), and C₁₂H₁₂N₂O₂, (II), the two carbonyl groups are oriented with torsion angles of −149.3 (3) and −88.55 (15)°, respectively. The single‐bond distances linking the two carbonyl groups are 1.528 (4) and 1.5298 (17) Å, respectively. In (I), the molecules are linked by an elaborate system of N—H...O hydrogen bonds, which form adjacent R²₂(8) and R⁴₂(8) ring motifs to generate a ladder‐like construct. Adjacent ladders are further linked by N—H...O hydrogen bonds to build a three‐dimensional network. The hydrogen bonding in (II) is far simpler, consisting of helical chains of N—H...O‐linked molecules that follow the 2₁ screw of the b axis. It is the presence of an elaborate hydrogen‐bonding system in the crystal structure of (I) that leads to the different torsion angle for the orientation of the two adjacent carbonyl groups from that in (II).     

Methyl 4‐amino‐2,3‐dihydro‐6‐methoxy‐1,3‐dioxo‐1H‐pyrrolo[3,4‐c]pyridine‐7‐carboxylate forms hydrogen‐bonded sheets built from R22(8) and R66(42) rings

In the title compound, C₁₀H₉N₃O₅, which was formed by the reaction of 6‐amino‐2‐methoxy‐4(3H)‐pyrimidinone with di­methyl acetyl­enedi­carboxyl­ate, the mol­ecules are linked by N—H?O hydrogen bonds [N?O 2.8974 (15) and 3.0300 (15) Å, and N—H?O 165 and 174°] into planar sheets built from alternating R₂²(8) and R₆⁶(42) rings.
