Structures of Bis(1-ethylbenzimidazol-2-yl)alkyl Copper(II) Dichlorides: An Unusual Cocrystallization

Abstract  Two structures containing pseudo-tetrahedral Cu(II)N₂Cl₂ coordination complexes are reported. The first molecular structure (A) of the compound, 1,1′bis(1-ethylbenzimidazol-2-yl)propane copper(II) dichloride (triEtBBIM)Cu(II)Cl₂, 1, is reported. The complex crystallized in the triclinic space group P-1 with a = 8.616(3) ?, b = 9.302(3) ?, c = 14.314(4) ?, α = 85.613(6)°, β = 85.170(6)°, γ = 66.117(6)° and V = 1044.1(5) ?³ with Z = 2. The second structure (B) contains 1 and (3,3′bis(1-ethylbenzimidazol-2-yl)pentane) copper(II) dichloride (tetEtBBIM)Cu(II)Cl₂, 2, both of which, cocrystallize in an equal molar ratio with a nitromethane solvate molecule. The complex crystallized in the monoclinic space group P2₁/c with a = 18.876(4) ?, b = 14.975(3) ?, c = 18.344(4) ?, β = 116.75(3)°, and V = 4630.3(16) ?³ with Z = 4. The cocrystallization of such discrete complexes has been coined a chemical Janus. Graphical Abstract  The title complexes contain pseudo-tetrahedral Cu(II)N₂Cl₂ coordination. One of the structures is the result of an unusual cocrystallization, in which two different discrete Cu(II) molecules cocrystallize in an equimolar ratio with a nitromethane solvate molecule.      

The Crystal Structures of (Z)-Ethyl 2-(4-chlorophenyl)-3-(2,4-difluorophenyl-amino)acrylate and its Analogues

Abstract  

The title compound, C₁₇H₁₄ClF₂NO₂, crystallizes in monoclinic space group P2₁/c with unit cell dimension of a = 16.276(3) ?, b = 7.5030(15) ?, c = 13.812(3) ?, α = 90°, β = 111.11(3)°, γ = 90° and Z = 4. The structure of the title compound reveals a Z configuration with respect to the C=C double bond in aminoacrylate fragment. The molecule is stabilized by intramolecular N–H···F and N–H···O hydrogen bonds. In the ethyl 2-aryl-3-arylaminoacrylates, electronic properties of the substituents in the aniline motif clearly affected the attached C–N bond length, and such effect is very little relative to Z-/E-configuration with respect to the C=C double bond.

The unsubstituted compound 1 forms three alternating layers with parallel tubes of different orientation, while for 3 all molecules are arranged in tubes parallel to the a-axis. Layers of molecules parallel to the a, b-plane are found for compound 2.

Abstract  Two new palladium(II) complexes, dichloro-{bis(3,5-dimethylpyrazol-1-yl)acetic acid}palladium(II)PdCl₂(3,5-Me₂bpza)], (1) (3,5-Me₂bpza = 3,5-dimethylpyrazol-1-yl)acetic acid) and dichloro-{bis(3,5-ditertbutylpyrazol-1-yl)acetic acid}palladium(II), [PdCl₂(3,5-^tBu₂bpza)], (2a) [3,5- ^t Bu₂bpza = 3,5-ditertiarybutylpyrazol-1-yl)acetic acid] complexes, were synthesized from the reactions of pyrazol-1-yl ligands with palladium salts. Attempts to crystallize 2a led to a hydrolyzed product, dichloro-{3,5-ditertbutylpyrazol-1-yl}palladium(II) (2b), in which the acetic acid moiety in the ligand backbone of 1 is lost. Both complexes 1 and 2b have been characterized by single-crystal X-ray crystallography. Both complexes crystallized in triclinic system (P − 1 space group).

Structures of Three New (Phenylsulfonyl)Indole Derivatives

Abstract  

Three new 1-(phenylsulfonyl)indole derivatives, 3-acetyl-2-ethyl-1-(phenylsulfonyl)indole, (I), 2-benzyl-1-(phenylsulfonyl)indole, (II), and 3-trimethylsilylethynyl-1-(phenylsulfonyl)indole, (III), have been synthesized and their crystal structures determined by single crystal X-ray crystallography. (I), C₁₈H₁₇NO₃S, is triclinic with space group P-1 and cell constants: a = 8.6129(2) Å, b = 8.8366(2) Å, c = 11.0108(2) Å, α = 72.7920(1)°, β = 75.0120(1)°, γ = 77.2550(1)°, V = 763.79(3) ų and Z = 2. (II), C₂₁H₁₇NO₂S, is monoclinic with space group P21/n and cell constants: a = 10.8355(18) Å, b = 10.6987(19) Å, c = 14.472(3) Å, β = 75.0120(1), V = 1675.2(5) ų and Z = 4. (III), C₁₉H₁₉NO₂SSi, is monoclinic with, space group P21/c and cell constants: a = 12.9596(1) Å, b = 10.543(3) Å, c = 13.543(2) Å, β = 93.58°, V = 1846.8(6)ų and Z = 4. All three have the same (phenylsulfonyl)indole skeleton with different ligands attached to the 2- and 3-sites of the indole ring. The angle between the mean planes of the indole and benzyl groups is 76.9(6)° (I), 82.9(3)° (II), 89.6(2)° (III) and between the sulfonyl group with the indole and benzyl rings is 61.2(9)° (I), 59.0((5)° (II), 51.5(6)°, 42.5(8)° (III) and 51.5(6)°(I), 44.3(8)° (II), 47.2(8)° (III), respectively. In addition to the ligand substitutions, weak intermolecular C–H···O hydrogen bond interactions and π stacking interactions between the π orbitals of nearby indole and phenyl rings influence these twist angles. Comparison to a MOPAC AM1 computational calculation supports these observations.

The sixth coordination site is occupied by the dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO) solvent molecules. The adjacent molecules of C1 are linked by N–H···N intermolecular hydrogen bonding, forming polymeric chains that run parallel to the bc plane. On the other hand, C2 is a discrete molecule while the molecules of C3 associate via weak N–H···O hydrogen bonding interaction to form a polymeric chain that runs along the a-axis.

Crystallization in diethylether reaction solvent forms the hemi-etherate A with the asymmetric unit showing two target compounds and one molecule of cocrystallized diethylether in the P-1 space group with crystal cell parameters a = 12.931(4) Å, b = 13.207(4) Å, c = 16.104(5) Å, α = 66.559(5)°, β = 77.670(5)°, γ = 81.562(5)°, V = 2,459.1(14) Å³ and Z = 4. Drying A in vacuo and recrystallization in pentane yields a nonsolvated crystalline phase B with an asymmetric unit displaying only one molecule of the target compound in the P2₁/c space group with crystal cell parameters a = 14.290(7) Å, b = 14.082(7) Å, c = 11.246(6) Å, β = 94.807(8)°, V = 2,255.1(19) Å³ and Z = 4. Graphical Abstract  A Cr(II) complex supported by two β-enaminoketiminato ligands, bis[(cyclohexylamino)pent-2-en-4-onato]-chromium(II), has been synthesized and has been structurally characterized in two different crystal phases.      

Synthesis and Crystal Structure of Phenolato-Bridged Dinuclear Copper(II) Complex with (2-Hydroxybenzyl)(2-pyridylmethyl)amine

Abstract  

The tridentate Schiff base phenol-containing ligand (2-hydroxybenzyl)(2-pyridylmethyl)amine (Hbpa) reacts with copper(II) perchlorate to give the phenolato-bridged dinuclear complex [Cu(bpa)(H₂O)]₂·2ClO₄ (1). Each copper(II) ion exhibits a distorted square-pyramidal environment, being coordinated by two nitrogen atoms and two phenolato oxygen atoms of the two deprotonated bpa ligands, and one oxygen atom of the water molecule. It crystallizes in the triclinic system P-1 with a = 7.8790(6), b = 8.9345(7), c = 12.0207(9) ?, α = 69.158(1), β = 85.307(1), γ = 76.629(1)°, V = 769.39(10) ?³, Z = 1. Cyclic voltammetry of 1 gives two oxidation and two reduced processes.     

Synthesis,Crystal Structure and Fluorescent Study of Bis(2-(2-hydroxyphenyl)benzimidazolate)zinc with Ethanol Solvate

Abstract  The zinc(II) complex with 2-(2-hydroxyphenyl)benzimidazole, namely [Zn(2-(2-hydroxyphenyl)benzimidazolate)₂]·C₂H₅OH (1 · C₂H₅OH) has been synthesized and characterized by X-ray crystallography and photoluminescent analysis. The complex crystallizes in monoclinic space group P2₁/c with cell parameters a = 10.156(1) ?, b = 25.771(3) ?, c = 9.674(1) ?, α = 90°, β = 103.641(2)°, γ = 90°, Z = 4, V = 2460.4(4) ?³. The central Zn(II) is four-coordinate and has a tetrahedral geometry. The steady-state and time-resolved photoluminescent spectra for the title compound have also been studied. The emission property can be ascribed to ligand-centered charge-transfer transition (LCCT) with π → π* property. Index Abstract   A new co-crystal of Zn(II) complex of 2-(2-hydroxylphenyl)benzimidazole with ethanol solvate has been prepared, characterized by X-ray crystallography and fluorescent studies.      

Crystal and Molecular Structure of (S)-N-(2-Hydroxyphenyl)pyrrolidine-2-carboxamide

Abstract  

(S)-N-(2-Hydroxyphenyl)pyrrolidine-2-carboxamide was synthesized from Cbz-l-proline through two steps and characterized by NMR and MS. The crystal structure was determined from single-crystal X-ray diffraction data. It crystallizes in the monoclinic space group, P2₁, with unit cell dimensions a = 7.284(6) ?, b = 10.262(9) ?, and c = 7.975(7) ?, α = 90.00°, β = 114.451(14)°, γ = 90.00° and Z = 2. The absolute configuration of the chiral center is determined as S. In the crystal structure, intermolecular and intramolecular hydrogen bonds are responsible for the formation of a 1-dimensional network.
