Crystal and molecular structure analysis of flutamide. Bifurcated helicoidal C-H ⋯ O hydrogen bonds

Crystal structure determination and semiempirical AM1 and PM3 calculations were performed on flutamide {2-methyl-N[4 nitro-3-(trifluoromethyl) phenyl] propamide}, a powerful nonsteroidal androgen antagonist. The molecule is almost planar apart from CF₃, NO₂, and CH₃ groups. The NO₂ plane makes an angle of 36.3(4) with the least-square plane of the phenyl ring. The molecules are intermolecularly linked by one N-H O and one C-H O hydrogen bonds. A bifurcated helicoidal hydrogen bond network is formed by the intermolecular C-H O hydrogen bond together with another intramolecular C-H O hydrogen bond. The calculated structures are in good agreement with the crystallographic conformations. AM1 is more accurate for predicting the intramolecular C-H O hydrogen bond while PM3 gives a better geometry for the crowded nitro group. AM1 and PM3 charges of benzenic hydrogens are used to predict the propensity of these atoms to form hydrogen bonds. The noncentrosymmetric space group of the crystal (Pna2₁), the calculated dipole moment (8.88 D), and the calculated angle between molecular dipoles and the twofold axis (–49) close to the optimal value (54.7) indicate that flutamide might be a possible candidate for nonlinear optical material.     

Molecular and Supramolecular Structures of a Nickel(II)–Copper(II)–Nickel(II) Trinuclear Complex Containing a New Macrocyclic Oxamido Complex Ligand

The title complex, [Cu(NiL)₂(H₂O)₂](ClO₄)₂, has been obtained by self-assembly, where [NiL] is a new macrocyclic oxamido complex ligand. In the crystal, a new kind of supramolecular interaction between the carbon atoms of the oxamido group of each [NiL] complex ligand in a [Cu(NiL)₂(H₂O)₂]^{2 +} cation and the oxygen atom of one of the ester carbonyls of another [Cu(NiL)₂(H₂O)₂]^{2 +} cation, and C—HO, O—HO and interactions are observed and link the trinuclear fragments and perchlorate ions to form a 3D supramolecular network.     

A quantum chemical study of the hydrogen bonding in the CO2⋯HF and N2O⋯HF complexes

Summary Quantum chemical ab initio calculations have been performed for the complex CO₂HF and N₂OHF. The interaction energies were computed through fourth order MBPT and were corrected for basis set superposition errors. Extended polarized basis sets were used which are constructed to give accurate values for electric moments and polarizabilities. The complex NNOHF was found to be bent, while OCOHF is linear, in agreement with experiment. The MBPT calculations give evidence for a second linear isomeric structure FHNNO, a possibility which has also been suggested by recent experimental data. The computed binding energies are: 2.5 kcal/mol for OCOHF, 2.4 kcal/mol for NNOHF, and 3.0 kcal/mol for FHNNO. At the SCF level, the FHNNO complex is less stable than NNOHF, but correlation has a large effect on the geometry and energetics of the latter complex. The NNOHF complex seems to be a system where the positive intramolecular correlation correction prevails over the negative intermolecular component.     

Structure of the Molecular Complexes of 18-Crown-6 with 1,2,5-Oxadiazole Derivatives

This paper reports on an X-ray diffraction analysis of host–guest type molecular complexes of 18-crown-6 with 1,2,5-oxadiazole derivatives: ethyl 4-amino-1,2,5-oxadiazole-3-carboxylic ether (1:1) (complex I), 4-(2-chloroethylamino)-1,2,5-oxadiazole-3-carboxylic acid hydrazide (1:2) (complex II), and 4-amino-1,2,5-oxadiazole-3-carboxylic acid amide monohydrate (1:1:1) (complex III). Crystals I are monoclinic with cell parameters a = 8.960(2), b = 18.118(4), c = 14.405(3) , = 106.9(3)°, space group P2₁/n, R = 0.054 for 4082 reflections. The 18-crown-6 and guest molecules are linked by hydrogen bonds of NHO(crown) and CHO(crown) types based on the head-to-tail principle, alternating in infinite chains along the y axis in the crystal. Crystals II are triclinic with cell parameters a = 8.615(2), b = 9.249(2), c = 10.987(2) , = 106.86(3), = 95.25(3), = 97.74(3)°, space group P1, R = 0.046 for 3006 reflections. The guest molecules are united into dimers by N–HO=C hydrogen bonds. The 18-crown-6 molecules and the dimer associates of the guest form chains along [110] in the crystal. Crystals III are monoclinic with cell dimensions a = 13.238(3), b = 19.004(4), c = 8.485(2) , = 100.75(3)°, space group Cc, R = 0.051 for 2032 reflections. The crown ether molecule is disordered over two positions. The NHO=C and NHN type hydrogen bonds link the guest molecules into chains. The water molecules serve to bridge the chains with crown ether molecules, forming ribbons whose axis lies along the z direction in the crystal.     

The structure and harmonic vibrational frequencies of the weakly bound complexes formed by HF with CO,CO2 and N2O

The structure and harmonic vibrational frequencies of several weakly bound complexes formed by HF are reported. Theab initio MP2 approach is used with large basis sets for the optimisation of geometries and the determination of harmonic frequencies. COHF and OCHF are examined; both are found to be minima, with the latter being the dominant structure. The linear OCOHF andT shaped OCOFH are studied, but only the linear structure is a minimum. N₂OHF has two minima on the surface corresponding to bent NNOHF and linear ONNHF structures.     

Kinetics of thermal decomposition of pyrite in an inert atmosphere

The thermal decomposition of pyrite in an inert atmosphere was studied in order to obtain a detailed knowledge of the kinetics and mechanism of the reaction 2 FeS₂=2FeS+S₂, which is one of the methods of producing elementary sulphur. The process was studied under isothermal conditions at temperatures of 600, 660, 700, 750, 800 and 850 °C in a nitrogen atmosphere, by means of a thermobalance. The rate-controlling processes were determined and their kinetic parameters were calculated. The optimum temperature for the process was found to be 800 °C.

Intramolecular hydrogen bond in substituted 3-hydroxypyridines

To explain the character of the intramolecular hydrogen bond in substituted 3-hydroxypyridines, the chemical shifts in the NMR spectra of the hydroxyl group and the IR spectra were studied. It was established that the stability of the intramolecular hydrogen bond of the O-HNR₂ type in substituted 3-hydroxypyridines increases when compared with the corresponding phenols, while an opposite pattern is observed for bonds of the O-H0₂ N type. An approximate evaluation of the energy of the intramolecular hydrogen bond in substituted 3-hydroxypyridines was achieved. When reacting with bases of the same strength, 3-hydroxypyridine forms more stable complexes than phenol.

A Thermal study of the precipitates formed in ammonia neutralization of acidic solutions of dissolved phlogopite

The precipitates containing mainly iron, aluminium and magnesium hydroxides, obtained from phlogopite dissolved in nitric acid by means of the neutralization procedure with ammonia, have been investigated by thermal analysis (TG, DTG and DTA). According to the present study, which is part of a larger investigation into the chemical utilization of Finnish mica minerals, the formation of solid solutions between iron and aluminium hydroxides in silt increases with an increasing neutralization temperature. Nitrogen exists mainly in the form of nitrate in silts, and magnesium forms mixed hydroxides with aluminium, which causes a separation between the iron hydroxide and magnesium aluminium hydroxide phases.

Reduction of CuO-containing catalysts, CuO: I: TPR and TGA

For CuO/ZnO reduction has been shown [M. S. W. Vong et al., Catal. Lett.,4, 15 (1990)] to be faster and more extensive with CO than by H₂ and here this is shown to be the case for CuO itself, this being so then it may be preferable to characterize CuO-containing catalysts by temperature-programmed reduction with CO than with H₂. The activation energies of reduction (57–82 kJ/mol) are those expected for chemical reduction, but it is an important finding that the order with respect to hydrogen partial pressure (0.04) is extremely low and far removed from the value of unity often assumed. Different samples of CuO exhibit different reduction characteristics.

The authors describe the determination of the SiO₂, Al₂O₃, Na₂O, SO₃ and moisture contents of finely dispersed silicic acids and silicates by means of thermochemical methods. Special interest is paid to the determination of SiO₂ and Al₂O₃ as well as to the advantages of the method and to disturbing factors. The possibility of using kinetic-catalytic analysis with thermometric end-point detection for Cu and Mn determination is discussed. In the second part of the paper the authors deal with the heat of wetting and heat of immersion of finely dispersed silicic acid, and give data for their determination under circumstances of industrial analysis too. Differences in the heats of wetting were found for the different types of silicic acid. These studies require further measurements to be made.

Double proton shifts in associates of formic acid with CH4, NH3, H2O,CH3F,NH2F,HOF, and HF molecules

The mechanisms of double synchronous proton transfer in associates of formic acid with solvent molecules of the HC(O)OHX (X = CH₄, NH₃, H₂O, or HF) and HC(O)OHFHY (Y = CH₃F, NH₂F, HOF, F₂, or HF) types have been studied by anab initio (SCF/3G) method. The calculated activation barriers of the reactions are 78.52, 17.72, 9.91, and 7.06 kcal mol^–1 in the former case and 120.1, 259.4, 228.7, 182.8, and 0.35 kcal mol^–1 in the latter case. In the latter case, simultaneously with the double transfer of protons, migration of two fluorine atoms along the chain of the associate occurs.Dedicated to Academician of the RAS N. S. Zefirov (on his 60th birthday).Translated fromIzvestiya Akademii Nauk. Seriya Khimicheskaya, No. 9, pp. 1690–1700, September, 1995.The present work was carried out with financial support from the Russian Foundation for Basic Research (Project Nos. 93-03-4972 and 93-03-18692) and the International Science Foundation (Grant ISF RNJ 000).
