An enantiomerically pure P‐stereogenic bisphosphine: (S,S)‐ethylenebis[(2‐methylphenyl)phenylphosphine] (o‐tolyl‐DiPAMP)

In connection with a research program involving the synthesis, structure determination, reactivity and ability to coordinate to metal centres of chiral bisphosphine ligands, we have synthesized and structurally characterized, by means of single‐crystal X‐ray diffraction analysis, the title compound {systematic name: (S,S)‐(ethane‐1,2‐diyl)bis[(2‐methylphenyl)phenylphosphane], abbreviated as o‐tolyl‐DiPAMP}, C₂₈H₂₈P₂. So far, neither the free bisphosphine (DiPAMP) nor analogues that incorporate the ethylenebisphosphine frame have had their crystal structures reported. The investigated compound forms crystals which are isostructural with the bisphosphine dioxide analogue [King et al. (2007). Acta Cryst. E 63 , o3278], despite the involvement of the dioxide in C—H...O(=P) hydrogen bonds and the lack of similar hydrogen bonds in the investigated crystal structure. In both molecules, the P—C—C—P chain is in a trans conformation, extended further at both ends by one of the two P—C_ipso bonds. The planes of the phenyl and o‐tolyl rings attached to the same P atom are nearly perpendicular to one another. Both crystal structures are mainly stabilized by dispersive interactions.     

Bis(methyltri‐o‐tolylphosphonium) octaiodide

In the crystal structure of the title compound, 2C₂₂H₂₄P⁺·I₈²⁻, the I₈²⁻ anion is located on a crystallographic inversion centre and consists of two tri‐iodide anions linked by di‐iodine at angles of 89.92 (4)° to form a planar `Z'‐shaped dianion. The octaiodides are linked via long‐range interactions [3.877 (11) Å] into infinite polyiodide ribbons. This is the first example of a structure containing an [(o‐tolyl)₃PMe]⁺ cation, and the C_Me—P—C—C_Me torsion angles of −54.0 (11), −51.3 (11) and −48.2 (11)° indicate that the configuration is exo₃.     

A Dissociative Route to C?H Bond Activation: Ligand Cyclometalation in cis‐Dimethyl[(sulfinyl‐κS)bis[methane]][tris(2‐methylphenyl)phosphine]platinum(2+)

The dialkyl compound cis‐dimethyl[(sulfinyl‐κS)bis[methane]][tris(2‐methylphenyl)phosphine]platinum(2+) (cis‐[Pt(Me)₂(dmso)(P(o‐tol)₃]; 1 ) has been isolated from the reaction of cis‐dimethylbis[(sulfinyl‐κS)bis[methane]]platinum(2+) (cis‐[Pt(Me)₂(dmso)₂]) with tris(2‐methylphenyl)phosphane (P(o‐tol)₃). Restricted rotation around the P? C_ipso bonds of the phosphane ligand generates two different conformers, 1a and 1b , in rapid exchange in non‐polar solvents at low temperature. Strong through‐space contacts between the ortho‐Me substituent groups on the ligand and the cis‐Me groups in the coordination plane were determined, which proved useful for identifying the atropisomers formed. At room temperature, ¹H‐NMR spectra of 1 maintain a ‘static’ pattern upon onset of easy and rapid ortho‐platination, leading to [[2‐[bis(2‐methylphenyl)phosphino‐κP]phenyl]methyl‐κC]methyl[(sulfinyl‐κS)bis[methane]]platinum(2+) ( 2 ), a new C,P‐cyclometalated compound of platinum(II), with liberation of methane. The process has been studied by ¹H‐ and ³¹P{¹H}‐NMR in CDCl₃, and kinetics experiments were performed by conventional spectrophotometric techniques. The first‐order rate constants k_c decrease with the addition of dimethyl sulfoxide until the process is blocked by the presence of a sufficient excess of sulfoxide. This behavior reveals a mechanism initiated by ligand dissociation and formation of a three‐coordinate species. The value of the rate constant for dimethyl sulfoxide dissociation k₁ has been measured independently over a wide temperature range by both ¹H‐NMR ligand exchange (isotopic labeling experiments) and ligand substitution (stopped‐flow pyridine for dimethyl sulfoxide substitution). The rates of the two processes are in reasonable agreement at the same temperature, and a single Eyring plot can be constructed with the two sets of kinetics data. However, the value of the derived dissociation constant at 308 K (k₁=6.5±0.3 s^?1) is at least two orders of magnitude higher than that of cyclometalation (k_c=0.0098±0.0009 s^?1 at 308 K). Clearly, the dissociation step is not rate‐determining for cyclometalation. A multistep mechanism consistent with mass‐law retardation is derived, which involves a pre‐equilibrium that controls the concentration of an unsaturated three‐coordinate, 14‐electron T‐shaped cis‐[PtMe₂{P(o‐tol)₃}] intermediate. Cyclometalation is initiated in this latter by an agostic interaction with the σ(C? H) orbital of a methyl group. Oxidative addition of the C? H bond follows, yielding a cyclometalated‐hydrido 16‐electron Pt(IV) five‐coordinate intermediate. Finally, reductive elimination and re‐entry of dimethyl sulfoxide with liberation of methane should yield the cyclometalated species 2 .     

2‐(4‐Bromophenyl)‐1,2‐dihydropyrimido[1,2‐a]benzimidazol‐4(3H)‐one and 4‐(4‐methylphenyl)‐3,4‐dihydropyrimido[1,2‐a]benzimidazol‐2(1H)‐one form hydrogen‐bonded base‐paired dimers

The title compounds, 2‐(4‐bromo­phenyl)‐1,2‐di­hydro­pyrimido­[1,2‐a]­benzimidazol‐4‐(3H)‐one, C₁₆H₁₂Br­N₃O, (IVa), and 4‐(4‐methylphenyl)‐3,4‐dihydropyrimido[1,2‐a]benzimidazol‐2‐(1H)‐one, C₁₇H₁₅N₃O, (Vb), both form R(8) centrosymmetric dimers via N—H?N hydrogen bonds. The N?N distance is 2.943 (3) Å for (IVa) and 2.8481 (16) Å for (Vb), with the corresponding N—H?N angles being 129 and 167°, respectively. However, in other respects, the supra­molecular structures of the two compounds differ. Both compounds contain different C—H?π interactions, in which the C—H?π(centroid) distances are 2.59 and 2.47 Å for (IVa) and (Vb), respectively (the latter being a short distance), with C—H?π(centroid) angles of 158 and 159°, respectively. The supramolecular structures also differ, with a short Br?O distance of 3.117 (2) Å in bromo derivative (IVa), and a C—H?O interaction with a C?O distance of 3.2561 (19) Å and a C—H?O angle of 127° in tolyl system (Vb). The di­hydro­pyrimido part of (Vb) is disordered, with a ratio of the major and minor components of 0.9:0.1. The disorder consists of two non‐interchangeable envelope conformers, each with an equatorial tolyl group and an axial methine H atom.     

Über den Phosphandiyl‐Transfer von invers‐polarisierten Phosphaalkenen R1P=C(NMe2)2 (R1 = tBu,Cy, Ph,H) auf Phospheniumkomplexe [(η5‐C5H5)(CO)2M=P(R2)R3] (R2 = R3 = Ph; R2 = tBu,R3 = H; R2 = Ph,R3 = N(SiMe3)2)

Phosphanediyl Transfer from Inversely Polarized Phosphaalkenes R¹P=C(NMe₂)₂ (R¹ = tBu, Cy, Ph, H) onto Phosphenium Complexes [(η⁵‐C₅H₅)(CO)₂M=P(R²)R³] (R² = R³ = Ph; R² = tBu, R³ = H; R² = Ph, R³ = N(SiMe₃)₂) Reaction of the freshly prepared phosphenium tungsten complex [(η⁵‐C₅H₅)(CO)₂W=PPh₂] ( 3 ) with the inversely polarized phosphaalkenes RP=C(NMe₂)₂ ( 1 ) ( a : R = tBu; b : Cy; c : Ph) led to the η²‐diphosphanyl complexes ( 9a‐c ) which were isolated by column chromatography as yellow crystals in 24‐30 % yield. Similarly, phosphenium complexes [(η⁵‐C₅H₅)(CO)₂M=P(H)tBu] (M = W ( 6 ); Mo ( 8 )) were converted into (M = W ( 11 ); Mo ( 12 )) by the formal abstraction of the phosphanediyl [PtBu] from 1a . Treatment of [(η⁵‐C₅H₅)(CO)₂W=P(Ph)N(SiMe₃)₂] ( 4 ) with HP=C(NMe₂)₂ ( 1d ) gave rise to the formation of yellow crystalline ( 10 ). The products were characterized by elemental analyses and spectra (IR, ¹H, ¹³C‐, ³¹P‐NMR, MS). The molecular structure of compound 10 was elucidated by an X‐ray diffraction analysis.     

2‐Amino‐4‐chloro‐5‐formyl‐6‐[methyl(2‐methylphenyl)amino]pyrimidine and 2‐amino‐4‐chloro‐5‐formyl‐6‐[(2‐methoxyphenyl)methylamino]pyrimidine are isostructural and form hydrogen‐bonded sheets of R22(8) and R66(32) rings

2‐Amino‐4‐chloro‐5‐formyl‐6‐[methyl(2‐methylphenyl)amino]pyrimidine, C₁₃H₁₃ClN₄O, (I), and 2‐amino‐4‐chloro‐5‐formyl‐6‐[(2‐methoxyphenyl)methylamino]pyrimidine, C₁₃H₁₃ClN₄O₂, (II), are isostructural and essentially isomorphous. Although the pyrimidine rings in each compound are planar, the ring‐substituent atoms show significant displacements from this plane, and the bond distances provide evidence for polarization of the electronic structures. In each compound, a combination of N—H...N and N—H...O hydrogen bonds links the molecules into sheets built from centrosymmetric R₂²(8) and R₆⁶(32) rings. The significance of this study lies in its observation of the isostructural nature of (I) and (II), and in the comparison of their crystal and molecular structures with those of analogous compounds.     

The seven‐membered nickelacycle [NiBr{o‐CH=C(CF3)C6H4CH2PPh2‐κ2C,P}{PPh(CH2Ph)2}]

The crystal and molecular structures of the title compound, 3‐bromo‐3‐(di­benzyl­phenyl­phospho­nio)‐2,2‐di­phenyl‐5‐trifluoromethyl‐1H‐benzo­[e][1,2]­phosphanickelepine, [NiBr(C₂₂H₁₇F₃P)(C₂₀H₁₉P)], which was obtained as the major regioisomer from insertion of HCCCF₃ into the Ni—C bond of the five‐membered phosphanickelacycle [NiBr(o‐C₆H₄CH₂PPh₂‐κ²C,P){PPh(CH₂Ph)₂}], have been determined. Principal geometric data include the Ni—X bond lengths Ni—Br 2.3343 (4) Å, Ni—P 2.1867 (7) and 2.2094 (7) Å, and Ni—C 1.882 (3) Å, and the two trans angles P—Ni—P 171.55 (3)° and Br—Ni—C 176.88 (9)°.     

Two biologically active thio­phene‐3‐carbox­amide derivatives

The two title compounds, 2‐({(1Z)‐[4‐(di­methyl­amino)phenyl]methylene}amino)‐4,5‐dimethyl‐N‐(2‐methylphenyl)thiophene‐3‐carboxamide, C₂₃H₂₅N₃OS, (I), and 2‐({(1E)‐[4‐(dimethylamino)phenyl]methylene}amino)‐N‐(4‐methylphenyl)‐4,5,6,7‐tetrahydro‐1‐benzothiophene‐3‐carboxamide,C₂₅H₂₇N₃OS, (II), show antibacterial and antifungal activities. The asymmetric unit of (II) contains two crystallographically independent mol­ecules. The o‐toluidine ring in (I) lies gauche with respect to the thio­phene ring. In (II), the p‐toluidine ring is coplanar with the thio­phene ring in one mol­ecule, but is tilted from it in the other mol­ecule. Neither structure exhibits any significant intermolecular interactions, but in both, an intramolecular N—H⋯N hydrogen bond forms a pseudo‐six‐membered ring, thus locking the molecular conformation and removing conformational flexibility.     

Synthesis and Characterization of Manganese(I) Carbonyl Complexes of the Type [(OC)4Mn{μ‐P(R)Aryl}]2

Metalation of secondary phosphanes HPRR′ [R = R′ = C₆H₄‐4‐Me, C₆H₃‐3,5‐Me₂ ( 3 ), C₆H₄‐4‐NMe₂ ( 4 ); R/R′ = Ph/cHex] with Mn₂(CO)₁₀ in boiling xylene (mixture of isomers), until the evolution of gaseous carbon monoxide ceases, leads to the formation of the dinuclear complexes of the type [(OC)₄Mn(μ‐PRR′)]₂ [R = R′ = C₆H₄‐4‐Me ( 5 ), C₆H₃‐3,5‐Me₂ ( 6 ), R/R′ = Ph/cHex ( 7 ), R = R′ = C₆H₄‐4‐NMe₂ ( 8 )] with poor to moderate yields. These manganese(I) complexes are only sparingly soluble or even nearly insoluble in hydrocarbons at room temperature. Planar four‐membered Mn₂P₂ rings represent the central moiety with four carbonyl ligands at each manganese(I) atom. The steric demand of the P‐bound substituents influences the Mn–P bond lengths as well as the P–Mn–P bond angles.     

4‐Amino‐2,6‐di­methoxy­pyrimidine: hydrogen‐bonded sheets of R22(8) and R66(28) rings,reinforced by an aromatic π–π‐stacking interaction

Molecules of the title compound, C₆H₉N₃O₂, are linked by an N—H⃛O hydrogen bond [H⃛O = 2.29 Å, N⃛O = 3.169 (2) Å and N—H⃛O = 173°] and an N—H⃛N hydrogen bond [H⃛N = 2.12 Å, N⃛N = 2.999 (2) Å and N—H⃛N = 175°] into sheets containing centrosymmetric R(8) and R(28) rings; the sheets are reinforced by a single aromatic π–π‐stacking interaction.     

Two molybdenum pentacarbonyl complexes with electroneutral phosphane ligands: [bis(morpholin‐4‐yl)(pentafluoroethyl)phosphane‐κP]pentacarbonylmolybdenum(0) and pentacarbonyl[(pentafluoroethyl)bis(piperidin‐1‐yl)phosphane‐κP]molybdenum(0)

The crystal structures of the title compounds, [Mo{(C₄H₈NO)₂P(C₂F₅)}(CO)₅], (1a), and [Mo{(C₅H₁₀N)₂P(C₂F₅)}(CO)₅], (2a), were determined as part of a larger project that focuses on the synthesis and coordination chemistry of phosphane ligands possessing moderate (electroneutral, i.e. neither electron‐rich nor electron‐deficient) electronic characteristics. Both complexes feature a slightly distorted octahedral geometry at the metal center, due to the electronic and steric repulsions between two of the four equatorial CO groups and the pentafluoroethyl group attached to the phosphane ligand. Bond length and angle data for (1a) and (2a) support the conclusion that the free phosphane ligands are electroneutral. For complex (1a), the Mo—P, Mo—C_ax and Mo—C_eq(ave) bond lengths are 2.5063 (5), 2.018 (2) and 2.048 (2) Å, respectively, and for complex (2a) these values are 2.5274 (5), 2.009 (3) and 2.050 (3) Å, respectively. Geometric data for (1a) and (2a) are compared with similar data reported for analogous Mo(CO)₅ complexes.     

(Carbonyl)Iron‐Selenolates: New Synthetic Methods and Reactions with Electrophiles. Crystal Structures of [(CO)6Fe2(μ‐SeR)2]; R = Me3SiCH2 and p‐O2NC6H4CH2, {(CO)6Fe2[μ‐η2‐Se,Se′‐o‐(SeCH2C6H4CH2Se)]}, and [(CO)6Fe2(μ‐SeFe(CO)2cp)2]

The reactions of Fe(CO)₅ or Fe₃(CO)₁₂ with NaBEt₃H or KB[CH(CH₃)C₂H₅]₃H, respectively and treatment of the resulting carbonylates M₂Fe(CO)₄, M = Na, K with elemental selenium in appropriate ratios lead to the formation of M₂[Fe₂(CO)₆(μ‐Se)₂]. Subsequent reactions with organo halides or the complex fragment cpFe(CO)₂⁺, cp = η⁵‐C₅H₅ afforded the selenolato complexes [Fe₂(CO)₆(μ‐SeR)₂], R = CH₂SiMe₃ ( 1 ), CH₂Ph ( 2 ), p‐CH₂C₆H₄NO₂ ( 3 ), o‐CH₂C₆H₄CH₂ ( 4 ) and cpFe(CO)₂⁺ ( 5 ) in moderate to good yields. A similar reaction employing Ru₃(CO)₁₂, Se and p‐O₂NC₆H₄CH₂Br leads to the formation of the corresponding organic diselenide. The X‐ray structures of 1 , 3 , 4 and 5 were determined and revealed butterfly structures of the Fe₂Se₂ cores. The substituents in 1 , 3  and 5 adopt different conformations depending on their steric demand. In 4 , the conformation is fixed because of the chelate effect of the ligand. The Fe–Se bond lengths lie in the range 235 to 240 pm, with corresponding Fe–Fe bond lengths of 254 to 256 pm. The ⁷⁷Se NMR data of the new complexes are discussed and compared with the corresponding data of related complexes.     

Two polymorphs,with Z′ = 1 and 2, of 2‐amino‐4‐chloro‐6‐morpholino­pyrimidine in P21/c,and 2‐amino‐4‐chloro‐6‐piperidino­pyrimidine,which is isomorphous and almost isostructural with the Z′ = 2 polymorph

Crystallization of 2‐amino‐4‐chloro‐6‐morpholino­pyrimidine, C₈H₁₁ClN₄O, (I), yields two polymorphs, both with space group P2₁/c, having Z′ = 1 (from diethyl ether solution) and Z′ = 2 (from di­chloro­methane solution), denoted (Ia) and (Ib), respectively. In polymorph (Ia), the mol­ecules are linked by an N—H⋯O and an N—H⋯N hydrogen bond into sheets built from alternating R(8) and R(40) rings. In polymorph (Ib), one mol­ecule acts as a triple acceptor of hydrogen bonds and the other acts as a single acceptor; one N—H⋯O and three N—H⋯N hydrogen bonds link the mol­ecules in a complex chain containing two types of R(8) and one type of R(18) ring. 2‐Amino‐4‐chloro‐6‐piperidino­pyrimidine, C₉H₁₃ClN₄, (II), which is isomorphous with polymorph (Ib), also has Z′ = 2 in P2₁/c, and the mol­ecules are linked by three N—­H⋯N hydrogen bonds into a centrosymmetric four‐mol­ecule aggregate containing three R(8) rings.     

o‐Chloro‐ and o‐bromo­benzonitrile: pseudosymmetry and pseudo‐isostructural packing

The structures of o‐chloro­benzonitrile, C₇H₄ClN, (I), and o‐bromo­benzonitrile, C₇H₄BrN, (II), have similar packing arrangements, even though Z′ = 4 in (I) and Z′ = 1 in (II). Both structures involve X⋯N inter­actions, as well as weak C—H⋯X and C—H⋯N hydrogen bonds. The four crystallographically independent mol­ecules in (I) are related by pseudosymmetry.     

p‐Cresyl 2,3‐an­hydro‐5‐deoxy‐5‐phthal­imido‐1‐thio‐α‐d‐lyxo­furan­oside

The crystal structure of the title compound, C₂₀H₁₇NO₄S, (I), was determined in order to compare the solution and solid‐state conformations. The mol­ecule was synthesized as a building block for incorporation into oligosaccharides comprised of conformationally restricted furan­ose residues. The furan­ose ring adopts an envelope conformation with the ring O atom displaced above the plane (an ^OE conformation). The pseudorotational phase angle (P) is 88.6° and the puckering amplitude (τ_m) is 31.5°. The C₂—C₁—S—C(Ph) torsion angle is ?163.2 (2)°, which places the aglycone in the exo‐anomeric effect preferred position. The C1—S—C14 bond angle is 99.02 (13)° and the plane of the cresyl moiety is oriented nearly parallel to the four in‐plane atoms of the furan­ose ring envelope. The orientation about the C4—C5 bond is gauche–gauche [Bock & Duus (1994). J. Carbohydr. Chem. 13 , 513–543].     

Major Distinctions in the Molecular and Supramolecular Structures of Selenium‐containing Organotins, (o‐MeSe‐C6H4CH2)SnPh3–nCln (n = 0, 1, 2)

The synthesis and characterization of selenium‐containing stannanes, (o‐MeSeC₆H₄CH₂)Sn(Ph)_3–nCl_n [n = 0 ( 1Se ); 1 ( 2Se ); 2 ( 3Se )], is presented. The increasing Lewis acidity at tin in the series 1Se → 2Se → 3Se is reflected in their respective solid state arrangements and supramolecular architecture by interactions of the type Se ··· Se, Sn ··· Se, and Cl ··· H–C. Overall the capacity of the selenium atom to form bidentate interactions creates geometric assemblies distinctly different to those of the oxygen and sulfur analogs.     

Synthesis of end‐functionalized poly(phenylacetylene)s with well‐characterized palladium catalysts

End‐functionalized poly(phenylacetylene)s were synthesized by the polymerization of phenylacetylene (PA) using the well‐defined palladium catalysts represented as [(dppf)PdBr(R)] {dppf = 1,1′‐bis(diphenylphosphino)ferrocene}. The Pd catalysts having a series of R groups such as o‐tolyl, mesityl, C(Ph)?CPh₂, C₆H₄‐o‐CH₂OH, C₆H₄‐p‐CN, and C₆H₄‐p‐NO₂ in conjunction with silver triflate polymerized PA to give end‐functionalized poly(PA)s bearing the corresponding R groups in high yields. The results of IR and NMR spectroscopies and MALDI‐TOF mass analyses proved the introduction of these R groups at one end of each polymer chain. The poly(PA) bearing a hydroxy end group was applied as a macroinitiator to the synthesis of a block copolymer composed of poly(PA) and poly(β‐propiolactone) moieties. © 2010 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Reaction of (η5‐C5H5)Fe(CO)2I with Anionic Bidentate Phosphine Ligands PPh2(o‐C6H4NHLi) or PPh2(o‐C6H4OLi)

The o‐substituted hybrid phenylphosphines, PPh₂(o‐C₆H₄NH₂) and PPh₂(o‐C₆H₄OH), could be deprotonated with LDA or n‐BuLi to yield PPh₂(o‐C₆H₄NHLi) and PPh₂(o‐C₆H₄OLi), respectively. When added to a solution of (η⁵‐C₅H₅)Fe(CO)₂I at room temperature, these two lithiated reagents produce a chelated neutral complex 1 (η⁵‐C₅H₅)Fe(CO)[C(O)NH(o‐C₆H₄)PPh₂‐C,P‐η²] for the former and mainly a zwitterionic complex 2 , (η⁵‐C₅H₅)Fe⁺(CO)₂[PPh₂(o‐C₆H₄O^?)] for the latter. Complex 1 could easily be protonated and then decarbonylated to give 4 [(η⁵‐C₅H₅)Fe(CO){NH₂(o‐C₆H₄)PPh₂‐N,P‐η²}⁺]. Complexes 1 and 4‐I have been crystallographically characterized with X‐ray diffraction.     

Synthesis and Reactivity towards DIBAL‐H of Cyclo‐Siloxanes cyclo‐[R2SiOSi(Ot‐Bu)2O]2, cyclo‐(t‐BuO)2Si(OSiR2)2O,and cyclo‐R2Si[OSi(Ot‐Bu)2]2O (R = Me,Ph)

The six‐, eight‐ and twelve‐membered cyclo‐siloxanes, cyclo‐[R₂SiOSi(Ot‐Bu)₂O]₂ (R = Me ( 1 ), Ph ( 2 )), cyclo‐(t‐BuO)₂Si(OSiR₂)₂O (R = Me ( 3 ), Ph ( 4 )), cyclo‐R₂Si[OSi(Ot‐Bu)₂]₂O (R = Me ( 5 ), Ph ( 6 )) and cyclo‐[(t‐BuO)₂Si(OSiMe₂)₂O]₂ ( 3a ) were synthesized in high yields by the reaction of (t‐BuO)₂Si(OH)₂ and [(t‐BuO)₂SiOH]₂O with R₂SiCl₂ and (R₂SiCl)₂O (R = Me, Ph). Compounds 1 — 6 were characterized by solution and solid‐state ²⁹Si NMR spectroscopy, electrospray mass spectrometry and osmometric molecular weight determination. The molecular structure of 4 has been determined by single crystal X‐ray diffraction and features a six‐membered cyclo‐siloxane ring that is essentially planar. The reduction of 1 — 6 with i‐Bu₂AlH (DIBAL‐H) led to the formation of the metastable aluminosiloxane (t‐BuO)₂Si(OAli‐Bu₂)₂ ( 7 ) along with Me₂SiH₂ and Ph₂SiH₂.     

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.
