Inter­actions of thia­mine with polymeric halogenocadmate anions in the organic–inorganic hybrid compound (thia­minium)[Cd3Br4.4Cl3.6]

The structure of poly[3‐[(4‐amino‐2‐methylpyrimidin‐1‐ium‐5‐yl)meth­yl]‐5‐(2‐hydroxy­ethyl)‐4‐methyl­thia­zolium octa‐μ‐bromo/chloro­(4.4/3.6)‐tricadmate(II)], {(C₁₂H₁₈N₄OS)[Cd₃ Br_4.41Cl_3.59]}_n consists of hydrogen‐bonded thia­mine mol­ecules and polymeric cadmium bromide/chloride anions in an organic–inorganic hybrid fashion. The one‐dimensional anion ribbons are formed by edge‐sharing octa­hedra and vertex‐sharing tetra­hedra. Thia­mine mol­ecules adopting the S conformation are linked to anions via three types of inter­actions, namely an N(amino)—H⋯anion⋯thia­zolium bridging inter­action, an N(pyrimidine)—H⋯anion hydrogen bond and an O(hydr­oxy)—H⋯anion hydrogen bond.     

Oxythiamine hexafluorophosphate monohydrate,a thiamine antagonist with the same conformation as ­thiamine

In the title compound, 3‐[(3,4‐di­hydro‐2‐methyl‐4‐oxopyrimidin‐5‐yl)­methyl]‐5‐(2‐hydroxy­ethyl)‐4‐methyl­thia­zolium hexa­fluoro­phosphate monohydrate, C₁₂H₁₆N₃O₂S⁺·PF₆^?·H₂O, oxy­thi­amine is a monovalent cation with a neutral oxo­pyrimidine ring. The mol­ecule assumes the F conformation, which is a common form for thi­amine but which is substantially different from the unusual V conformation found in the chloride and hydro­chloride salts of oxy­thi­amine. The anion‐bridging interaction, C—H?anion?pyrimidine, is emphasized as being important for stabilization of the F conformation.     

N‐(3H‐Thia­zol‐2‐yl­idene)­nitr­amine and N‐methyl‐N‐(thia­zol‐2‐yl)­nitr­amine

The geometries of the thia­zole ring and the nitr­amino groups in N‐(3H‐thia­zol‐2‐yl­idene)­nitr­amine, C₃H₃N₃O₂S, (I), and N‐­methyl‐N‐(thia­zol‐2‐yl)­nitr­amine, C₄H₅N₃O₂S, (II), are very similar. The nitr­amine group in (II) is planar and twisted along the C—N bond with respect to the thia­zole ring. In both structures, the asymmetric unit includes two practically equal mol­ecules. In (I), the mol­ecules are arranged in layers connected to each other by N—H⋯N and much weaker C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds. In the crystal structure of (II), the mol­ecules are arranged in layers bound to each other by both weak C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds and S⋯O dipolar interactions.     

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.     

4,7‐Bis(4‐pyridyl­ethynyl)‐2,1,3‐benzo­thia­diazo­le and its dipyridinium diperchlorate

The title compound, C₂₀H₁₀N₄S, and its dipyridinium salt, 4,4′‐(2,1,3‐benzo­diazol‐4,7‐diyl­diethynyl)­dipyridinium diperchlorate, C₂₀H₁₂N₄S²⁺·2ClO₄^?, display bond alternation in the 2,1,3‐benzo­thia­diazo­le rings, which suggests their quinonoid character. The dipyridinium dication mol­ecules stack along the a axis and form a dimer with short S?N interheteroatom contacts [3.146 (4) Å] between the two 1,2,5‐thia­diazo­le rings. The dimer is surrounded by the perchlorate anions with which it forms a large number of intermolecular N—H?O and C—H?O hydrogen bonds.     

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.     

Poly­sulfonyl­amines. CXLV.

The prominent features in the molecular structure of the title compound (alternative name: 2‐diethyl­carbamoyl‐1,1,3,3‐tetraoxo‐1,3,2‐benzodi­thia­zole), C₁₁H₁₄N₂O₅S₂, arise in the urea moiety S₂N—C(O)—N′C₂: the sum of the angles at N is 332.3 (1)°, the N—C(O)—N′C₂ unit is planar, and distances N—C(O) = 1.494 (3) Å, N′—C(O) = 1.325 (2) Å and C—O = 1.215 (2) Å. The mol­ecules are associated via five C—H?O hydrogen bonds to form layers parallel to the yz plane. This compound and its di­methyl homologue, which were synthesized by treating the silver salt of o‐benzene­disulfon­imide with carbamoyl chlorides, are prone to rapid hydro­lysis at the weak N—C(O) bond. For both mol­ecules, the rotational barrier about the partial N′—C(O) double bond is ca 50 kJ mol^?1 at 250 K (from dynamic ¹H NMR experiments).     

Thia­mine tetra­phenyl­borate monohydrate: a two‐dimensional hydrogen‐bonded network with (4,4)‐topology

The title compound, 3‐[(4‐amino‐2‐methyl­pyrimidin‐5‐yl)­meth­yl]‐5‐(2‐hydroxy­eth­yl)‐4‐methyl­thia­zolium tetra­phenyl­borate monohydrate, C₁₂H₁₇N₄OS⁺·C₂₄H₂₀B⁻·H₂O, is a salt in which the thiamine cations are linked by hydrogen bonds into a two‐dimensional network having (4,4)‐topology. The stacked sheets form channels, which are occupied by the anions; the cations and anions are linked by C—H⋯π(arene) hydrogen bonds.     

6‐(2‐Fluorobenzylidene)‐2‐[1‐(2‐fluoro‐4‐biphenyl)ethyl]thiazolo[3,2‐b][1,2,4]triazol‐5(6H)‐one

The title compound, C₂₅H₁₇F₂N₃OS, was synthesized from 6‐(benzyl­idene)­thia­zolo­[3,2‐b][1,2,4]triazol‐5(6H)‐one. The fused thia­zolo­[3,2‐b][1,2,4]triazole system is essentially planar, and bifurcated C—H⋯O, C—H⋯N and C—H⋯F interactions are present between mol­ecules.     

The salt‐type 1:2 adduct of meso‐5,5,7,12,12,14‐hexa‐C‐methyl‐1,4,8,11‐tetraazacyclotetradecane (tet‐a) and 5‐nitroisophthalic acid forms a hydrogen‐bonded sheet ­structure containing two configur­ational isomers of [(tet‐a)H2]2+

The title compound, meso‐5,7,7,12,14,14‐hexa­methyl‐4,11‐di­aza‐1,8‐diazo­nia­cyclo­tetra­decane bis(3‐carboxy‐5‐nitro­benz­oate), C₁₆H₃₈N₄²⁺·2C₈H₄NO₆^?, is a salt in which the cation is present as two configurational isomers, disordered across a common centre of inversion in P, with occupancies of 0.847 (3) and 0.153 (3). The anions are linked into chains by a single O—H?O hydrogen bond [H?O 1.71 Å, O?O 2.5063 (15) Å and O—H?O 156°] and the cations link these anion chains into sheets by means of a range of N—H?O hydrogen bonds [H?O 1.81–2.53 Å, N?O 2.718 (5)–3.3554 (19) Å and N—H?O 146–171°].     

1,3‐Thia­zolidine derivatives from regioselective [2+3]‐cyclo­additions of azomethine yl­ides with thio­ketones

The title compounds, namely di­methyl (2RS)‐2,3‐di­phenyl‐1,3‐thia­zolidine‐5‐spiro‐2′‐adam­antane‐4,4‐di­carboxyl­ate methanol sol­vate, C₂₈H₃₁NO₄S·0.275CH₄O, and di­methyl (4RS)‐3,4‐di­phenyl‐1,3‐thia­zolidine‐5‐spiro‐9′‐(9′H‐fluorene)‐2,2‐di­car­box­ylate, C₃₁H₂₅NO₄S, were obtained from dipolar [2+3]‐cyclo­additions of an azo­methine yl­ide with adamantane­thione and thio­fluorenone, respectively. The structures show that the choice of thio­ketone affects the regioselectivity of the cyclo­addition. The asymmetric unit of the former structure contains two mol­ecules of the thia­zolidine derivative plus a site for a partial occupancy (55%) methanol mol­ecule. O—H⋯O and C—H⋯O interactions link two of each of these entities into closed centrosymmetric hexamers. The five‐membered ring in each structure has an envelope conformation.     

Weak C–H⋯O and C–H⋯N ­interactions in nitro­pyrazoles

The structures of 1‐methyl‐3‐nitro­pyrazole and 1‐methyl‐4‐nitro­pyrazole, C₄H₅N₃O₂, have been determined. The 3‐nitro derivative has crystallographic m‐symmetry while the 4‐nitro compound has no imposed symmetry. The significant differences in bond distances and angles between the structures are ascribable to the electron‐withdrawing effects of the nitro group attached to C3 or C4, respectively. In both structures, the mol­ecules are organized into layers by an extensive network of C—H?O or C—H?N hydrogen interactions. Within a layer, the mol­ecules are arranged in a similar way, although differences of up to 0.3 Å in the analogous H?O or H?N intermolecular distances are observed. The cohesion of the layers is due to van der Waals and C—H?O contacts.     

Ethyl 2‐amino‐4‐phenyl‐1,3‐thia­zole‐5‐carboxyl­ate

The structure of the title compound, C₁₂H₁₂N₂O₂S, (I), comprises mol­ecules that form dimers via N—H?N hydrogen‐bonding interactions and then construct the overall network through N—H?O associations. The dihedral angle between the phenyl and thia­zole rings is 42.41 (6)°.     

Cyano–cyano and chloro–cyano interactions in two imidazole derivatives

In two closely related 1‐aryl‐2‐methyl‐4‐nitro‐5‐cyano­imid­azoles, namely 2‐methyl‐4‐nitro‐1‐phenyl‐1H‐imidazole‐5‐carbo­nitrile, C₁₁H₈N₄O₂, and 1‐(4‐chloro­phenyl)‐2‐methyl‐4‐nitro‐1H‐imidazole‐5‐carbo­nitrile, C₁₁H₇ClN₄O₂, different weak intermolecular interactions determine the crystal packing. In the 1‐phenyl derivative, dipole–dipole interactions between antiparallel cyano groups connect mol­ecules into centrosymmetric dimers, while in the 1‐(4‐chloro­phenyl) derivative, the dimers are connected by C≡N⋯Cl—C halogen bonds. These interactions, together with weak C—H⋯O(N) hydrogen bonds, connect mol­ecules related by subsequent centres of inversion into infinite tapes.     

Secondary interactions in n‐(chloromethyl)pyridinium chlorides (n = 2, 3, 4)

In the isomeric title compounds, viz. 2‐, 3‐ and 4‐(chloro­methyl)pyridinium chloride, C₆H₇ClN⁺·Cl^?, the secondary interactions have been established as follows. Classical N—H?Cl^? hydrogen bonds are observed in the 2‐ and 3‐isomers, whereas the 4‐isomer forms inversion‐symmetric N—H(?Cl^??)₂H—N dimers involving three‐centre hydrogen bonds. Short Cl?Cl contacts are formed in both the 2‐isomer (C—Cl?Cl^?, approximately linear at the central Cl) and the 4‐isomer (C—Cl?Cl—C, angles at Cl of ca 75°). Additionally, each compound displays contacts of the form C—H?Cl, mainly to the Cl^? anion. The net effect is to create either a layer structure (3‐isomer) or a three‐dimensional packing with easily identifiable layer substructures (2‐ and 4‐isomers).     

Hydro­gen‐bonded dimers in N‐(2‐nitro­phenyl­thio)­saccharin

In the title compound, 2‐(2‐nitro­phenyl­thio)‐1,2‐benzo­thia­zol‐3(2H)‐one 1,1‐dioxide, 2‐O₂NC₆H₄S(C₇H₄NO₃S) or C₁₃H₈N₂­O₅S₂, the planes of the saccharin and nitro­phenyl­thiol­ate portions are almost orthogonal. The mol­ecules are linked by C—H?O=S hydrogen bonds [C?O 3.308 (3) Å, H?O 2.44 Å and C—H?O 155°] into cyclic centrosymmetric R²₂(16) dimers, reinforced by aromatic π?π stacking interactions between the nitrated aryl rings.     

Conformation of cationic N,N‐di­methyl­glycine in di­methyl­glycinium tri­fluoro­acetate

In the title compound, C₄H₁₀NO₂⁺·C₂F₃O₂^?, the main N—C—COOH skeleton of the protonated amino acid is nearly planar. The C=O/C—N and C=O/O—H bonds are syn and the two methyl groups are gauche to the methyl­ene H atoms. The conformation of the cation in the crystal is compared to that given by ab initio calculations (Hartree–Fock, self‐consistent field molecular‐orbital theory). The tri­fluoro­acetate anion has the typical staggered conformation with usual bond distances and angles. The cation and anion form dimers through a strong O—H?O hydrogen bond which are further interconnected in infinite zigzag chains running parallel to the a axis by N—H?O bonds. Weaker C—H?O interactions involving the methyl groups and the carboxy O atoms of the cation occur between the chains.     

Hexa­methyl­enetetra­mine–4‐nitro­catechol–water (1/2/1)

In the title adduct, 1,3,5,7‐tetra­aza­tri­cyclo[3.3.1.1^3,7]dec­ane–4‐nitro­benzene‐1,2‐diol–water (1/2/1), C₆H₁₂N₄·2C₆H₅NO₄·H₂O, the hexa­methyl­ene­tetra­mine mol­ecule acts as an acceptor of intermolecular O—H?N hydrogen‐bonding interactions from the water mol­ecule and the hydroxy groups of one of the two symmetry‐independent 4‐nitro­catechol mol­ecules. The structure is built from molecular layers which are stabilized by three intermolecular O—H?O, two intermolecular O—H?N and four intermolecular C—H?O hydrogen bonds. The layers are further interconnected by one additional intermolecular O—H?N and two intermolecular C—H?O hydrogen bonds.     

Multicentre hydrogen bonds in a 2:1 aryl­sulfonyl­imidazol­one ­hydro­chloride salt

The title compound, (S)‐(+)‐4‐[5‐(2‐oxo‐4,5‐di­hydro­imidazol‐1‐yl­sulfonyl)­indolin‐1‐yl­carbonyl]­anilinium chloride (S)‐(+)‐1‐[1‐(4‐amino­benzoyl)­indoline‐5‐sulfonyl]‐4‐phenyl‐4,5‐di­hydro­imidazol‐2‐one, C₂₄H₂₃N₄O₄S⁺·Cl^?·C₂₄H₂₂N₄O₄S, crystallizes in space group C2 from a CH₃OH/CH₂Cl₂ solution. In the crystal structure, there are two different conformers with their terminal C₆ aromatic rings mutually oriented at angles of 67.69 (14) and 61.16 (15)°. The distances of the terminal N atoms (of the two conformers) from the chloride ion are 3.110 (4) and 3.502 (4) Å. There are eight distinct hydrogen bonds, i.e. four N—H?Cl, three N—H?O and one N—H?N, with one N—H group involved in a bifurcated hydrogen bond with two acceptors sharing the H atom. C—H?O contacts assist in the overall hydrogen‐bonding process.     

2‐Amino‐5‐nitro­thia­zole monoethanol solvate: triply‐interwoven hydrogen‐bonded sheets containing centrosymmetric R(8) and R(38) rings

2‐Amino‐5‐nitro­thia­zole crystallizes from solution in ethanol as a monosolvate, C₃H₃N₃O₂S·C₂H₆O, in which the thia­zole component has a strongly polarized molecular–electronic structure. The thia­zole mol­ecules are linked into centrosymmetric dimers by paired N—H⋯N hydrogen bonds [H⋯N = 2.09 Å, N⋯N = 2.960 (6) Å and N—H⋯N = 169°], and these dimers are linked by the ethanol mol­ecules, via a two‐centred N—H⋯O hydrogen bond [H⋯O = 1.98 Å, N⋯O = 2.838 (5) Å and N—H⋯O = 164°] and a planar asymmetric three‐centred O—H⋯(O)₂ hydrogen bond [H⋯O = 2.07 and 2.53 Å, O⋯O = 2.900 (5) and 3.188 (5) Å, O—H⋯O = 169 and 136°, and O⋯H⋯O = 55°], into sheets built from alternating (8) and (38) rings. These sheets are triply interwoven.
