Novel heterocyclic inhibitors of matrix metalloproteinases: three 6H‐1,3,4‐thiadiazines

The title compounds, (2S)‐N‐[5‐(4‐chloro­phenyl)‐2,3‐di­hydro‐6H‐1,3,4‐thia­diazin‐2‐yl­idene]‐2‐[(phenyl­sulfonyl)­amino]­pro­pan­amide, C₁₈H₁₇ClN₄O₃S₂, (I), (2R)‐N‐[5‐(4‐fluoro­phenyl)‐6H‐1,3,4‐thia­diazin‐2‐yl]‐2‐[(phenyl­sulfonyl)amino]­propan­amide, C₁₈H₁₇FN₄O₃S₂, (II), and (2S)‐N‐[5‐(5‐chloro‐2‐thienyl)‐6H‐1,3,4‐thia­diazin‐2‐yl]‐2‐[(phenyl­sulfonyl)­amino]­propan­amide, C₁₆H₁₅ClN₄O₃S₃, (III), are potent inhibitors of matrix metalloproteinases. In all three compounds, the thia­diazine ring adopts a screw‐boat conformation. The mol­ecules of compound (I) show a short intramolecular N_Ala—H?N_exo hydrogen bond [N?N 2.661 (3) Å] and are linked into a chain along the c axis by N_endo—H?S_endo and N_endo—H?O_Ala hydrogen bonds [N?S 3.236 (3) and N?O 3.375 (3) Å] between neighbouring mol­ecules. In compound (II), the mol­ecules are connected antiparallel into a chain along the a axis by N_exo—H?O_Ala and N_Ala—H?N_endo hydrogen bonds [N?O 2.907 (6) and N?N 2.911 (6) Å]. The mol­ecules of compound (III) are dimerized antiparallel through N_exo—H?N_endo hydrogen bonds [N?N 2.956 (7) and 2.983 (7) Å]. The different hydrogen‐bonding patterns can be explained by an amido–imino tautomerism (prototropic shift) shown by different bond lengths within the 6H‐1,3,4‐thia­diazine moiety.     

Hydro­gen bonding in substituted nitro­anilines: isolated nets in 1,3‐­diamino‐4‐nitrobenzene and continuously interwoven nets in 3,5‐­dinitro­aniline

In 3,5‐di­nitro­aniline, C₆H₅N₃O₄, where Z′ = 2, the mol­ecules are linked by three N—H?O hydrogen bonds [N?O 3.344 (2)–3.433 (2) Å and N—H?O 150–167°] into deeply puckered nets, each of which is interwoven with its two immediate neighbours.     

[2,2′‐(1,3,5,8,10,12‐Hexaazacyclotetradecane‐3,10‐diyl)diethanol‐κ4N1,N5,N8,N12]bis(thiocyanato‐κS)copper(II)

In the crystal structure of the title compound, [Cu(NCS)₂(C₁₂H₃₀N₆O₂)], the Cu atom lies on an inversion centre and has an elongated octahedral coordination, with Cu—N distances of 2.004 (2) and 2.015 (2) Å, and a Cu—S distance of 2.9696 (10) Å. The 2,2′‐ethanol chains are axially oriented. The mol­ecules are linked to form a three‐dimensional network via O—H?N, N—H?O and N—H?S 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).     

Bis(μ‐succinato‐O,O′:O′′,O′′′)bis[bis(2‐amino‐1,3‐benzothiazole‐N3)copper(II)]

In the title dimeric complex, [Cu₂(C₄H₄O₄)₂(C₇H₆N₂S)₄], which possesses a centre of symmetry, the Cu atoms are enclosed in a 14‐membered ring. They adopt a distorted square‐bipyramidal (4+2) coordination. The four closest donor atoms are two N atoms of 2‐amino­benzo­thiazole ligands and two O atoms of the succinate carboxylate groups. They form a square‐planar cis arrangement, with an average Cu—N distance of 2.003 (3) Å and Cu—O distances of 1.949 (3) and 1.965 (3) Å. Two longer Cu—O bonds of 2.709 (3) and 2.613 (3) Å involving the remaining O atoms of the carboxylate groups complete the sixfold coordination of the Cu atoms. The H atoms of each amino group of the 2‐amino­benzo­thiazole molecules form intra‐ and inter­molecular N—H?O hydrogen bonds. A nearly perpendicular inter­molecular C—H?Cg interaction (Cg is the centroid of the imidazole ring) is observed. The intramolecular Cu?Cu distance is 6.384 (2) Å.     

2‐Amino‐5‐chloro‐1,3‐benzoxazol‐3‐ium 2‐(3,4‐di­chloro­phenoxy)­acetate

The 1:1 organic salt of the title compound, C₇H₆ClN₂O⁺·C₈H₅Cl₂O₃^? or [(2‐ABOX)(3,4‐D)], comprises the two constituent mol­ecules associated by an R₂²(8) graph‐set interaction through the carboxyl­ate group of 3,4‐D across the protonated N/N sites of 2‐ABOX [N?O 2.546 (3) and 2.795 (3) Å]. Cation/anion pairs associate across an inversion centre forming discrete tetramers via an additional three‐centre hydrogen‐bonding association from the latter N amino proton to a phenoxy O atom [N?O 3.176 (3) Å] and a carboxyl­ate O atom [N?O 2.841 (3) Å]. This formation differs from the polymeric hydrogen‐bonded chains previously observed for adduct structures of 2‐ABOX with carboxyl­ic acids.     

Three N2‐benzoyl­oxybenz­amidines: sheet structures built from hard and soft hydrogen bonds and aromatic π–π stacking interactions

Molecules of the title compounds N²‐(benzoyl­oxy)­benz­ami­dine, C₁₄H₁₂N₂O₂, (I), N²‐(2‐hydroxy­benzoyl­oxy)­benz­ami­dine, C₁₄H₁₂N₂O₃, (II), and N²‐benzoyloxy‐2‐hydroxybenzamidine, C₁₄H₁₂N₂O₃, (III), all have extended chain conformations, with the aryl groups remote from one another. In (I), the mol­ecules are linked into chains by a single N—H⋯N hydrogen bond [H⋯N = 2.15 Å, N⋯N = 3.029 (2) Å and N—H⋯N = 153°] and these chains are linked into sheets by means of aromatic π–π stacking interactions.

In (III), an intramolecular O—H⋯N hydrogen bond and two N—H⋯O hydrogen bonds [H⋯O = 2.26 and 2.10 Å, N⋯O = 2.975 (2) and 2.954 (2) Å, and N—H⋯O = 138 and 163°] link the molecules into sheets.     

2‐Amino‐4‐(4‐pyridyl)­pyrimidine and the 1:1 adduct with 4‐amino­benzoic acid

The structure of the title compound, C₉H₈N₄, comprises non‐planar mol­ecules that associate via pyrimidine N—H?N dimer R(8) hydrogen‐bonding associations [N?N 3.1870 (17) Å] and form linear hydrogen‐bonded chains via a pyrimidine N—H?N(pyridyl) interaction [N?N 3.0295 (19) Å]. The dihedral angle between the two rings is 24.57 (5)°. The structure of the 1:1 adduct with 4‐amino­benzoic acid, C₉H₈N₄·C₇H₇NO₂, exhibits a hydrogen‐bond­ing network involving COOH?N(pyridyl) [O?N 2.6406 (17) Å], pyrimidine N—H?N [N?N 3.0737 (19) and 3.1755 (18) Å] and acid N—H?O interactions [N?O 3.0609 (17) and 2.981 (2) Å]. The dihedral angle between the two linked rings of the base is 38.49 (6)° and the carboxyl­ic acid group binds to the stronger base group in contrast to the (less basic) complementary hydrogen‐bonding site.     

(η6‐Hexamethylbenzene)(mesidine)­ditriflatoruthenium(II)

The crystal structure of the title complex, (η⁶‐hexamethylbenzene)bis(trifluoromethanesulfonato‐O)(2,4,6‐trimethylanil­ine‐N)ruthenium(II), [Ru(CF₃O₃S)₂(C₁₂H₁₈)(C₉H₁₃N)], is described. The complex has the classic three‐legged piano‐stool structure with a planar arene 1.667 Å from the metal, two monodentate O‐bound tri­fluoro­methane­sulfonate ligands [Ru—O 2.169 (2) and 2.174 (2) Å] and one N‐bound mesidine ligand [Ru—N 2.198 (2) Å]. The Ru—N distance is relatively long and the average Ru—O distance is relatively short when compared with previously characterized Ru^II complexes.     

μ‐1,4‐Benzenedicarboxylato‐bis[trans‐aqua(1,4,8,11‐tetraazacyclotetradecane)nickel(II)] diperchlorate forms a three‐dimensional hydrogen‐bonded framework

The title compound, [Ni₂(C₈H₄O₄)(C₁₀H₂₄N₄)₂(H₂O)₂](ClO₄)₂, contains two independent octahedral Ni^II centres with trans‐NiN₄O₂ chromophores. The bridging benzene­dicarboxyl­ate ligand is bonded to the two Ni atoms, each via one O atom of each carboxyl­ate, while the other O atom participates in an intramolecular N—H?O hydrogen bond, forming an S(6) motif. The cations are linked to the perchlorate anions via O—H?O and N—H?O hydrogen bonds [O?O 2.904 (6) and 2.898 (6) Å; O—H?O 158 (6) and 165 (6)°; N?O 3.175 (7) and 3.116 (7) Å; N—H?O 168 and 166°] to form molecular ladders. These ladders are linked by further O—H?O and N—H?O hydrogen bonds [O?O 2.717 (6) and 2.730 (5) Å; O—H?O 170 (4) and 163 (6)°; N?O 3.373 (7) and 3.253 (7) Å; N—H?O 163 and 167°] to form a continuous three‐dimensional framework. The perchlorate anions both participate in three hydrogen bonds, and both are thus fully ordered.     

Bis(4‐hydroxy­benzoato‐O)(1,4,8,11‐tetra­aza­cyclo­tetra­decane‐κ4N)nickel(II): a three‐dimensional framework built from O—H⋯O and N—H⋯O hydrogen bonds

The title compound, [Ni(C₇H₅O₃)₂(C₁₀H₂₄N₄)], contains octahedral Ni^II in a centrosymmetric trans configuration with Ni—N distances of 2.0637 (17) and 2.0699 (16) Å and an Ni—O distance of 2.1100 (14) Å. The mol­ecules are linked by a single type of O—H?O hydrogen bond [O?O 2.618 (2) Å and O—H?O 161°] into two‐dimensional sheets; a singletype of N—H?O hydrogen bond [N?O 2.991 (2) Å and N—H?O 139°] links these sheets into a three‐dimensional framework.     

Adducts of 1,1,1‐tris(4‐hydroxyphenyl)ethane with diamines: three‐dimensional hydrogen‐bonded frameworks formed with 1,6‐diaminohexane and 2,2′‐bipyridyl

The adduct 1,6‐di­amino­hexane–1,1,1‐tris(4‐hydroxy­phenyl)­ethane (1/2) is a salt {hexane‐1,6‐diyldiammonium–4‐[1,1‐bis(4‐hydroxyphenyl)ethyl]phenolate (1/2)}, C₆H₁₈N₂²⁺·2C₂₀H₁₇O₃^?, in which the cation lies across a centre of inversion in space group P. The anions are linked by two short O—H?O hydrogen bonds [H?O 1.74 and 1.76 Å, O?O 2.5702 (12) and 2.5855 (12) Å, and O—H?O 168 and 169°] into a chain containing two types of R(24) ring. Each cation is linked to four different anion chains by three N—H?O hydrogen bonds [H?O 1.76–2.06 Å, N?O 2.6749 (14)–2.9159 (14) Å and N—H?O 156–172°]. In the adduct 2,2′‐bipyridyl–1,1,1‐tris(4‐hydroxy­phenyl)­ethane (1/2), C₁₀H₈N₂·2C₂₀H₁₈O₃, the neutral di­amine lies across a centre of inversion in space group P2₁/n. The tris­(phenol) mol­ecules are linked by two O—H?O hydrogen bonds [H?O both 1.90 Å, O?O 2.7303 (14) and 2.7415 (15) Å, and O—H?O 173 and 176°] into sheets built from R(38) rings. Pairs of tris­(phenol) sheets are linked via the di­amine by means of a single O—H?N hydrogen bond [H?N 1.97 Å, O?N 2.7833 (16) Å and O—H?N 163°].     

2,3‐Dihydro‐3‐methyl‐2‐nitrimino‐1,3‐thiazole

The title compound {alternatively, 3‐methyl‐2‐[oxido(oxo)hydrazono]‐2,3‐dihydro‐1,3‐thiazole}, C₄H₅N₃O₂S, was obtained by methyl­ation of N‐(2‐thia­zolyl)­nitr­amine. The molecule lies on a mirror plane and the thia­zole ring is planar, regular in shape and aromatic. The S atom participates in the aromatic sextet via an electron pair on the 3p_z orbital. In the crystal, the mol­ecules are arranged in parallel layers, bound to each other by weak C—H?O and C—H?N hydrogen bonds and by S?O dipolar interactions, with an interlayer separation of 3.23 Å.     

3‐(1‐Hydroxy­ethyl­idene)‐1‐phenyl­pyrrolidine‐2,4‐dione

Analysis of C₁₂H₁₁NO₃ revealed a coplanar N‐substituted phenyl group on a pyrrolidine ring with two keto moieties and a hydroxy­ethyl­idene functionality. The hydroxy group forms part of a hydrogen‐bonding network characterized by a short intramolecular H?O distance of 1.81 (3) Å, and a longer intermolecular interaction with an H?O distance of 2.38 (3) Å. Both keto groups form additional intra‐ and intermolecular C—H?O contacts with H?O distances ranging from 2.26 to 2.41 Å.     

The 2:1 complex of maleic acid and 1,4‐diazabicyclo[2.2.2]octane: hydrogen‐bonded sheets linked by C–H⋯O hydrogen bonds

In the title complex, 1,4‐diazo­niabi­cyclo­[2.2.2]­octane bis­(hy­drogen maleate), C₆H₁₄N₂²⁺·2C₄H₃O₄^?, the C₄H₃O₄^? and C₆H₁₄N₂²⁺ ions, derived from maleic acid and 1,4‐di­aza­bi­cyclo­[2.2.2]­octane, respectively, are disordered across a mirror plane in space group Cmc2₁, and they are linked by two nearly linear N—H?O hydrogen bonds, with N?O distances of 2.662 (3) and 2.614 (4) Å, and N—H?O angles of 173°. The crystal structure consists of sheets with reticulations of 3.3792 (4) Å in stratum and 7.3892 (8) Å in width. The sheets are linked by C—H?O hydrogen bonds.     

catena‐Poly­[[(di‐2‐pyridyl­amine)­silver(I)]‐μ‐nicotinato] and catena‐poly­[[(di‐2‐pyridyl­amine)silver(I)]‐μ‐2,6‐di­hydroxy­benzoato]

In catena‐poly­[[(di‐2‐pyridyl­amine‐κ²N,N′)silver(I)]‐μ‐nico­tinato‐κ²N:O], [Ag(C₆H₄NO₂)(C₁₀H₉N₃)]_n, the Ag^I atom is tetracoordinated by two N atoms from the di‐2‐pyridyl­amine (BPA) ligand [Ag—N = 2.3785 (18) and 2.3298 (18) Å] and by one N atom and one carboxyl­ate O atom from nicotinate ligands [Ag—N = 2.2827 (15) Å and Ag—O = 2.3636 (14) Å]. Bridging by nicotinate N and O atoms generates a polymeric chain structure, which extends along [100]. The carboxyl O atom not bonded to the Ag atom takes part in an intrachain C—H⋯O hydrogen bond, further stabilizing the chain. Pairs of chains are linked by N—H⋯O hydrogen bonds to generate ribbons. There are no π–π interactions in this complex. In catena‐poly­[[(di‐2‐pyridyl­amine‐κ²N,N′)silver(I)]‐μ‐2,6‐di­hydroxy­benzoato‐κ²O¹:O²], [Ag(C₇H₅O₄)(C₁₀H₉N₃)]_n, the Ag^I atom has a distorted tetrahedral coordination, with three strong bonds to two pyridine N atoms from the BPA ligand [Ag—N = 2.286 (5) and 2.320 (5) Å] and to one carboxyl­ate O atom from the 2,6‐di­hydroxy­benzoate ligand [Ag—O = 2.222 (4) Å]; the fourth, weaker, Ag‐atom coordination is to one of the phenol O atoms [Ag⋯O = 2.703 (4) Å] of an adjacent moiety, and this interaction generates a polymeric chain along [100]. Pairs of chains are linked about inversion centers by N—H⋯O hydrogen bonds to form ribbons, within which there are π–π interactions. The ribbons are linked about inversion centers by pairs of C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds and additional π–π interactions between inversion‐related pairs of 2,6‐di­hydroxy­benzoate ligands to generate a three‐dimensional network.     

Four oxoindole‐linked α‐alkoxy‐β‐amino acid derivatives

Four structures of oxoindolyl α‐hydroxy‐β‐amino acid derivatives, namely, methyl 2‐{3‐[(tert‐butoxycarbonyl)amino]‐1‐methyl‐2‐oxoindolin‐3‐yl}‐2‐methoxy‐2‐phenylacetate, C₂₄H₂₈N₂O₆, (I), methyl 2‐{3‐[(tert‐butoxycarbonyl)amino]‐1‐methyl‐2‐oxoindolin‐3‐yl}‐2‐ethoxy‐2‐phenylacetate, C₂₅H₃₀N₂O₆, (II), methyl 2‐{3‐[(tert‐butoxycarbonyl)amino]‐1‐methyl‐2‐oxoindolin‐3‐yl}‐2‐[(4‐methoxybenzyl)oxy]‐2‐phenylacetate, C₃₁H₃₄N₂O₇, (III), and methyl 2‐[(anthracen‐9‐yl)methoxy]‐2‐{3‐[(tert‐butoxycarbonyl)amino]‐1‐methyl‐2‐oxoindolin‐3‐yl}‐2‐phenylacetate, C₃₈H₃₆N₂O₆, (IV), have been determined. The diastereoselectivity of the chemical reaction involving α‐diazoesters and isatin imines in the presence of benzyl alcohol is confirmed through the relative configuration of the two stereogenic centres. In esters (I) and (III), the amide group adopts an anti conformation, whereas the conformation is syn in esters (II) and (IV). Nevertheless, the amide group forms intramolecular N—H...O hydrogen bonds with the ester and ether O atoms in all four structures. The ether‐linked substituents are in the extended conformation in all four structures. Ester (II) is dominated by intermolecular N—H...O hydrogen‐bond interactions. In contrast, the remaining three structures are sustained by C—H...O hydrogen‐bond interactions.     

Aqua­chloro(1,10‐phenanthroline‐κ2N,N′)(p‐toluenesulfonato‐κO)copper(II)

In the title compound, [CuCl(C₇H₇O₃S)(C₁₂H₈N₂)(H₂O)], the central Cu atom is coordinated by a water mol­ecule, a chloride ion, an O‐monodentate p‐toluene­sulfonate anion and an N,N′‐bidentate 1,10‐phenanthroline ligand. The copper environment is best described as a slightly distorted square pyramid, with bond distances Cu—Cl 2.2282 (9) Å, Cu—OW 1.984 (3) Å, and Cu—N 2.006 (3) and 2.028 (3) Å; the apical Cu—O distance is 2.281 (2) Å. In the supramolecular structure, π–π‐stacking stabilization is observed, and classical and non‐classical hydrogen bonds also play an important role.     

5‐Nitro‐N‐phenyl‐2‐thio­fur­amide

The title compound, C₁₁H₈N₂O₃S, crystallizes with two crystallographically independent mol­ecules, which are conformationally almost identical, per asymmetric unit. The dihedral angles between the phenyl and 2‐thio­fur­amide planes are 46.3 (1) and 47.0 (1)° for the first and second mol­ecule, respectively. Strong intramolecular N—H?O hydrogen bonds [N?O 2.664 (2) and 2.661 (2) Å] dictate an anti conformation of the C=S groups in relation to the furan‐O atoms.     

(8‐Dimethylamino‐1‐naphthyl)dimethylammonium 3‐carboxy‐1,4,5,‐6,7,7‐hexachlorobicyclo[2.2.1]hept‐5‐ene‐2‐carboxylate hydrate

The structure of the title compound, C₁₄H₁₉N₂⁺·C₉H₃Cl₆O₄^?·H₂O, consists of singly ionized 1,4,5,6,7,7‐hexachlorobicyclo[2.2.1]hept‐5‐ene‐2,3‐dicarboxylic acid anions and protonated 1,8‐bis(dimethylamino)naphthalene cations. In the (8‐dimethylamino‐1‐napthyl)dimethylammonium cat­ion, a strong disordered intramolecular hydrogen bond is formed with N?N = 2.589 (3) Å. The geometry and occupancy obtained in the final restrained refinement suggest that the disordered hydrogen bond may be asymmetric. Water mol­ecules link the anion dimers into infinite chains via hydrogen bonding.
