Synthesis and X-ray Crystal Structure of a New Molecular Clip

The synthesis and X-ray crystal structure of a new molecular clip 2 was reported. It （C24H24N4O2, Mr = 400.47） crystallizes in the space group C2/c with a = 15.587（2）, b = 8.5805（12）, c = 15.259（2） A, β = 102.448（3）°, V= 1992.9 （5）A63, Z = 4, Dc = 1.335 g/cm63,μ = 0.087 mm^-1 and F（000） = 848. It remains monomeric in the crystal and a tape-like structure is formed in the crystal structure of molecular clip. The most unusual structural feature of 2 is the boat conformation of its cyclohexyl ring imposed by the ring fusion at C（9）-C（9a）.

Calixarenes 11. Crystal and molecular structure ofp-tert-butylcalix[8]arene

Monoclinic prisms were obtained by slow evaporation of a pyridine solution ofp-tert-butylcalix[8]arene: space groupP2₁/c,a=20.312(3),b=23.020(2),c=20.006(6) ; =113.05(2)⁰;V=8707.6 ų;Z=4. Refinement led to anR value of 0.166 for 4231 reflections which, although high, is sufficient to establish the conformation of the molecule as a pleated loop in which the eight hydroxyl groups are arranged in a slightly undulating, almost planar, intramolecularly hydrogen bonded cyclic array. The possible inferences for the conformation ofp-tert-butylcalix[8]arene in solution are discussed. Supplementary Data relating to this article are deposited with the British Library as Supplementary Publication No. SUP 82019.     

Crystal and molecular structure of the (1 : 1) clathrate between a calix[4]arene containing onep-nitrophenol unit and toluene

p-(Methyl,tert-butyl, nitro,tert-butyl) calix[4]arene: toluene, C₃₇H₄₁NO₆. C₇H₈,M _r = 687.87, triclinic, ,a = 13.668(2),b = 12.187(2),c = 13.231(1) Å, = 106.78(8), = 77.88(1), = 114.00(1)°,V = 1916.8(8) ų,Z = 2,D _x = 1.19 g cm^–3, (CuK ) = 1.54178 Å, = 5.90 cm^–1,F(000) = 736,T = 293 K, finalR = 0.068 for 6309 observed reflections. This macrocycle, having different substituents at the positionspara to the hydroxyl groups, is the first one of its type to be studied. The general conformation of this calix[4]arene is compared to similar symmetrical ones. Thetert-butyl groups are not disordered as is usual and toluene is retained between the macrocycles. Two calixarene molecules are positioned to permit atert-butyl group of one to be inside the cavity of the second to establish CH₃- interactions.     

Synthesis and Crystal Structure of Bis(dicyanamide) (5,7,7,12,14,14-Hexamethyl-1,4,8,11-tetraazacyclotetradecane) Nickel(Ⅱ)

1 INTRODUCTION Crystal engineering is becoming an increase- ingly interest field by means of coordinated co- valent bonding or supramolecular contacts (such as hydrogen bonds, p-p interaction etc.)[1～7]. The ligand [N(CN)2]- is a remarkably versatile building block for constructing supramolecular architectures since it may act in uni-, biand tridentate manner. Additional ligands, such as coordinating amines (Lewis bases), in combination with dicyan- amide have been shown to produce n…     

An experimental and theoretical study of the structure of Lamotrigine in its neutral and protonated forms: evidence of Lamotrigine enantiomers

The energies, geometries, and NMR chemical shifts have been calculated at the B3LYP/6-311++G(d,p) level for 17 structures of the anticonvulsant drug Lamotrigine and 29 structures of protonated Lamotrigine, including tautomers and E/Z isomers of the imino groups. The calculations were compared with solid state (X-ray and CPMAS NMR) and solution experimental results both reported in the literature and determined in this work. The conclusion is that Lamotrigine exists as the diamino tautomer and that its protonation takes place on the N2 atom. Using ABTE and/or deuterated ABTE as chiral solvating agent, it has been demonstrated for the first time by NMR in solution that Lamotrigine is a racemate of rapidly interconverting enantiomers. The crystal structure of two new solvated salts of Lamotrigine, both saccharinates, has been determined. Both salts present the same arrangement in chains of Lamotrigine and saccharinate joined by hydrogen bonds and stacking interactions. No isostructurality is present because of the different arrangement of the chains in both crystal structures.     

Ring pucker in dihydroaromatic epoxides: The molecular structure ofr-1-hydroxy-t-2-methyl-t,t-3,4-epoxy-1,2,3,4-tetrahydronaphthalene

The crystal structure of the derivative of tetrahydronaphthalene with substituent epoxy, hydroxyl, and methyl groups in the more saturated ring (r-1-hydroxy-t-2-methyl-t,t-3,4-epoxy-1,2,3,4-tetrahydronaphthalene) has been determined. The hydroxyl and methyl groups are both found to beequatorial. The crystal structure is characterized by chains of molecules linked by O-H O hydrogen bonds involving the hydroxyl groups; these hydrogen bonds lie approximately parallel to theb axis. The conformations of the epoxide-bearing rings in various hydroxy epoxides are compared and shown to be similar.     

Crystal and molecular structure of two calix[6]arenes:p-Isopropylcalix[6]arene andp-tert-butylcalix[6]arene—benzene(1∶3) complex

The isopropyl derivative crystallizes from a mixture of carbon disulfide and benzene in the orthorhombic system: Space groupP2₁ nb, a=17.420(3),b=17.708(3),c=18.972(3) Å,V=5852(3) Å,Z=4. Thet-butyl derivative crystallizes from benzene, but the crystal is a complex (13), space groupP,a=15,065(5),b=19.103(3),c=13.878(3) Å, =106.95(2), =102.72(2), =80.61(2),V=3703(2) ų,Z=2. Refinement led toR=0.185 for 1512 reflections for the isopropyl derivative, a sufficiently high number to establish the conformation of the molecule; for thet-butyl complexR=0.12 for 7340 reflections. Intramolecular hydrogen bonds are given as well as comparison of the conformation of both compounds. Thet-butyl groups and the benzene molecules are disordered but the isopropyl groups are not. Supplementary Data relating to this article are deposited with the British Library as Supplementary Publication No. SUP 82071 (57 pages).     

Crystal and molecular structure of 1-(trimethylsilylmethyl)benzotriazole

The crystal and molecular structure of 1-(trimethylsilylmethyl)benzotriazole has been established by X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis. The coordination polyhedron of the silicon atom in this molecule is a tetrahedron. The bond lengths and angles of the 1-(trimethylsilylmethyl)benzotriazole molecule were compared with those of related crystal structures.     

Crystal structure and morphology of poly(16-hexadecalactone) chain-folded lamellar crystals

Solution-grown, chain-folded lamellar crystals of poly(16-hexadecalactone) (PHDL) were crystallized isothermally from 1-hexanol at 70 degrees C. The morphology of lozenge-shaped crystals was studied by TEM and AFM. The lamellae are ca. 10 nm thick and the chains run orthogonal to the lamellar surface with folding along (110) and (110) planes. The crystal structure of PHDL was determined by XRD and election diffraction of single crystals. The chains are in the 2(1) helix conformation close to all-trans and the structure consists of an orthorhombic unit cell with a P2(1)2(1)2(1) space group with the lattice constants a = 0.746 +/- 0.001 nm, b = 0.504 +/- 0.001 nm, and c (chain axis) = 4.116 +/- 0.003 nm. There are two chains per unit cell, which exist in an antiparallel arrangement. Molecular packing structure has been studied in detail, taking into account both diffraction data and energy calculations. The setting angles, with respect to a axis, were +/-40 degrees for the corner and center chains, respectively. By using the electron and XRD data, the best molecular packing model was refined to R-factors of 0.168 and 0.196, respectively. A brief comparison of chain-packing structure is also made with related polymer structures.     

Crystal and molecular structure of N-(1-silatranylmethyl)benzimidazole

The crystal and molecular structure of N-(1-silatranylmethyl)benzimidazole was established by X-ray diffraction. The coordination polyhedron of the silicon atom in this molecule is a trigonal bipyramid. The bond lengths and angles of the N-(1-silatranylmethyl)benzimidazole (SMBI) molecule are compared with the corresponding values for other derivatives of this heterocycle. The silatranylmethyl group, having a high electron-donor inductive effect, does not increase the total aromaticity of the SMBI molecule.     

Six polycyclic pyrimidoazepine derivatives: syntheses,molecular structures and supramolecular assembly

A versatile synthetic method has been developed for the formation of variously substituted polycyclic pyrimidoazepine derivatives, formed by nucleophilic substitution reactions on the corresponding chloro‐substituted compounds; the reactions can be promoted either by conventional heating in basic solutions or by microwave heating in solvent‐free systems. Thus, (6RS)‐6,11‐dimethyl‐3,5,6,11‐tetrahydro‐4H‐benzo[b]pyrimido[5,4‐f]azepin‐4‐one, C₁₄H₁₅N₃O, (I), was isolated from a solution containing (6RS)‐4‐chloro‐8‐hydroxy‐6,11‐dimethyl‐6,11‐dihydro‐5H‐benzo[b]pyrimido[5,4‐f]azepine and benzene‐1,2‐diamine; (6RS)‐4‐butoxy‐6,11‐dimethyl‐6,11‐dihydro‐5H‐benzo[b]pyrimido[5,4‐f]azepin‐8‐ol, C₁₈H₂₃N₃O₂, (II), was formed by reaction of the corresponding 6‐chloro compound with butanol, and (RS)‐4‐dimethylamino‐6,11‐dimethyl‐6,11‐dihydro‐5H‐benzo[b]pyrimido[5,4‐f]azepin‐8‐ol, C₁₆H₂₀N₄O, (III), was formed by reaction of the chloro analogue with alkaline dimethylformamide. (6RS)‐N‐Benzyl‐8‐methoxy‐6,11‐dimethyl‐6,11‐dihydro‐5H‐benzo[b]pyrimido[5,4‐f]azepin‐4‐amine, C₂₂H₂₄N₄O, (IV), (6RS)‐N‐benzyl‐6‐methyl‐1,2,6,7‐tetrahydropyrimido[5′,4′:6,7]azepino[3,2,1‐hi]indol‐8‐amine, C₂₂H₂₂N₄, (V), and (7RS)‐N‐benzyl‐7‐methyl‐2,3,7,8‐tetrahydro‐1H‐pyrimido[5′,4′:6,7]azepino[3,2,1‐ij]quinolin‐9‐amine, C₂₃H₂₄N₄, (VI), were all formed by reaction of the corresponding chloro compounds with benzylamine under microwave irradiation. In each of compounds (I)–(IV) and (VI), the azepine ring adopts a conformation close to the boat form, with the C‐methyl group in a quasi‐equatorial site, whereas the corresponding ring in (V) adopts a conformation intermediate between the twist‐boat and twist‐chair forms, with the C‐methyl group in a quasi‐axial site. No two of the structures of (I)–(VI) exhibit the same range of intermolecular hydrogen bonds: different types of sheet are formed in each of (I), (II), (V) and (VI), and different types of chain in each of (III) and (IV).     

Crystal and molecular structure of 1:1 molecular complexes of triphenyl-N-(4-methylpyridyl-2)phosphinimine and triphenyl-N-(3-methylpyridyl-2)phosphinimine with perchloric acid

X-ray diffraction analysis has been used to determine the crystal structures of the 1:1-composition products of protonation by perchloric acid of isomeric triphenyl-N-(4-methylpyridyl-2)phosphinimine (1) and triphenyl-N-(3-methylpyridyl-2)phosphinimine (2). The structures were refined toR=0.048 andR=0.052, respectively, using 2274 (1) and 2647 (2) reflections. The protonation centers are located at the sites of N atoms of the pyridine ring (1) and the phosphinimino group (2). The distribution of the bond lengths in the cations suggests that a significant contribution is made by a phosphonic structure with positive charges localized on the P atoms. N-H...O hydrogen bonds, with lengths of 2.890(4) and 3.020(3) Å, connect cations and anions in both structures.A. N. Nesmeyanov Institute of Heteroorganic Compounds, Russian Academy of Sciences, 117813 Moscow. Translated from Izvestiya Akademii Nauk, Seriya Khimicheskaya, No. 3, pp. 629–635, March, 1992.     

Crystal and Molecular Structure of 5-Acetylamino-3-nitro-1,2,4-triazole

This paper reports on an X-ray diffraction study of 5-acetylamino-3-nitro-1,2,4-triazole. Monoclinic crystals, space group P2_1/c; a=8.2079(7), b=13.096(1), c=13.650(1) , =100.64(1)°. Two independent molecules are identical in conformation and both have an N–H···sO intramolecular hydrogen bond; the difference lies in their interactions with neighbors. In molecule A, the acetyl oxygen atom and all nitrogen atoms (except those of the amino group) are involved in the intermolecular hydrogen bonds; in molecule B, these hydrogen bonds are formed by only two NH groups in addition to the above oxygen. The crystal structure of the title compound is compared with that of 5-amino-3-nitro-1,2,4-triazole.

Tryptophan-derived peptides. 1: Crystal structure and solution conformation of Boc-Gly-Trp-Ala-OtBu

The solid-state structure of Boc-Gly-Trp-Ala-OBu^t was determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. The tripeptide gave crystals belonging to the orthorhombic systemP2₁2₁2₁ and at 122.0(5) K:a=11.0663(12),b=14.107(2),c=17.275(2) Å,V=2697.0(5) ųZ=4,R(F)=0.0259, andR _w(F)=0.0695. The peptide adopts a type-I-turn in the solid state with a single, rather weak, intramolecular hydrogen bond between the Boc-CO and Ala-NH groups (NO 3.082(1) Å, <NHO 167(1)°). The conformation of the Boc-Gly-Trp-Ala-OBu^t peptide has also been studied by¹H NMR spectroscopy. The solvent and temperature dependencies of NH chemical shifts suggests that this hydrogen bond is broken and that all amide protons are solvent exposed in CDCl₃ and (CD₃)₂SO.     

Building Blocks for High-Efficiency Organic Photovoltaics: Interplay of Molecular,Crystal, and Electronic Properties in Post-Fullerene ITIC Ensembles

Accurate single-crystal X-ray diffraction data offer a unique opportunity to compare and contrast the atomistic details of bulk heterojunction photovoltaic small-molecule acceptor structure and packing, as well as provide an essential starting point for computational electronic structure and charge transport analysis. Herein, we report diffraction-derived crystal structures and computational analyses on the n-type semiconductors which enable some of the highest efficiency organic solar cells produced to date, 3,9-bis(2-methylene-(3-(1,1-dicyanomethylene)-indanone))-5,5,11,11-tetrakis(4-hexylphenyl)-dithieno[2,3-d:2′,3′-d′]-s-indaceno[1,2-b:5,6-b′]dithiophene ( ITIC ) and seven derivatives (including three new crystal structures: 3,9-bis(2-methylene-(3-(1,1-dicyanomethylene)-indanone))-5,5,11,11-tetrakis(4-propylphenyl)-dithieno[2,3-d:2′,3′-d′]-s-indaceno[1,2-b:5,6-b′]dithiophene ( ITIC-C3 ), 3,9-bis(2-methylene-(3-(1,1-dicyanomethylene)-indanone))-5,5,11,11-tetrakis(3-hexylphenyl)-dithieno[2,3-d:2′,3′-d′]-s-indaceno[1,2-b:5,6-b′]dithiophene ( m -ITIC-C6 ), and 3,9-bis(2-methylene-((3-(1,1-dicyanomethylene)-6,7-difluoro)-indanone))-5,5,11,11-tetrakis(4-butylphenyl)-dithieno[2,3-d:2′,3′-d′]-s-indaceno[1,2-b:5,6-b′]dithiophene ( ITIC-C4-4F ). IDTT acceptors typically pack in a face-to-face fashion with π–π distances ranging from 3.28–3.95 Å. Additionally, edge-to-face packing is observed with S⋯π interactions as short as 3.21–3.24 Å. Moreover, ITIC end group identities and side chain substituents influence the nature and strength of noncovalent interactions (e. g. H-bonding, π–π) and thus correlate with the observed packing motif, electronic structure, and charge transport properties of the crystals. Density functional theory (DFT) calculations reveal relatively large nearest-neighbor intermolecular π-π electronic couplings (5.85–56.8 meV) and correlate the nature of the band structure with the dispersion interactions in the single crystals and core–end group polarization effects. Overall, this combined experimental and theoretical work reveals key insights into crystal engineering strategies for indacenodithienothiophene (IDTT) acceptors, as well as general design rules for high-efficiency post-fullerene small molecule acceptors.
