Structure of 4,6-dimethylisothiazolo[5,4-b]pyridin-3(2H)-one and its 2-[4-(2-methylphenyl) piperazin-1-ylmethyl] derivative

The crystal and molecular structures of 4,6-dimethylisothiazolo[5,4-b]pyridin-3(2H)-one, C₈H₈N₂OS, 1, and its 2-[4-(2-methylphenyl)piperazin-1-ylmethyl] derivative, C₂₀H₂₄N₄OS, 2c, are described. These compounds crystallize in the monoclinic system in the space group P2 ₁/c. The cell constants for compound 1 are a = 5.049(1), b = 14.897(1), c = 11.330(1) Å, = 98.07(1)°, Z = 4, T = 293 K, and D _cal = 1.419 g cm^–3, and for compound 2c are a = 15.525(1), b = 12.021(1), c = 10.911(1) Å, = 106.42(1)°, Z = 4, T = 293 K, and D _cal = 1.253 g cm^–3 The structures were solved by direct methods and refined to R values of 0.0411 and 0.0380 for 1640 and 3504 reflections for 1 and 2c, respectively. The analysis of the geometry and difference electron density map reveal that the dimethylisothiazolopyridine 1 exists in the amino tautomeric form in the crystalline state. The conformation of the o-methylphenylpiperazine part of the molecule 2c strongly depends on the substituents effect in the phenyl ring and is very similar to those observed in crystals for other investigated arylopiperazine derivatives of the isothiazolopyridine.

In addition, charge-population analysis of the crystallographically observed structure confirms its zwitterionic form.     

Synthesis and crystal structure of [Nd(H2O)2]2(C2O4)3

Some crystals of [Nd(H₂O)₂]₂(C₂O₄)₃ were synthesized hydrothermally by heating at 200°C for 8 days an aqueous suspension of neodymium oxalate decahydrate in presence of terephthallic acid and guanidinium carbonate. They crystallize in the orthorhombic system, space group P2₁2₁2₁, with a = 8.6702(7) Å, b = 9.558(2) Å, and c = 17.009(2) Å. The structure of this complex is built up by two independent neodymium atoms, three bischelating oxalate ligands, and four water molecules forming a rectangle building unit of 6-membered ring, [Ln(H₂O)₂(C₂O₄)]₆. The packing of these units leads to a layer parallel to the plane (001). However, the neodymium atoms of two neighbor layers share an edge of oxalato oxygen atoms thus giving a double-layer. The three dimensionality between these double-layers is insured by hydrogen bonds of water molecules which are bound to the neodymium atoms. There is no zeolitic water molecule. The two neodymium atoms are nine-coordinated. In both cases, the coordination polyhedron can be described as a distorted tricapped trigonal prism.     

Synthesis and X-ray crystal structure studies of 1-ethyl-3-(2-chlorophenyl)-1,2,3-triazolium perchlorate

The isolation of stable carbenes of the Arduengo (1a) and Wanzlick (2a) type has prompted us to look for stable nitrenium ions of the related structural type 1-ethyl-3-(2-chloropenyl)-1,2,3-triazolium perchlorate (6⁺ClO₄ ^–).

Unexpected crystallization and X-ray crystal structure of racemic 1-phenyl-2-(4-pyridyl)ethanol intermediate

We have isolated, by crystallization, the intermediate, 1-phenyl-2-(4-pyridyl)ethanol, from the condensation reaction of 4-methylpyridine with benzaldehyde in which the aim was to obtain the model compound 4-styrylpyridine in absence of a condensing agent. Single crystal X-ray analysis shows the formation of an intermolecular hydrogen bond O–H···N between the nitrogen atom of a pyridine group and the oxygen atom of the OH of the neighboring molecule, which helps to stabilize the crystal structure. Crystal structure determination clearly revealed that the solid is chiral and racemic, as expected. The title compound crystallizes in an orthorhombic system with a space group Pna2₁ with two pairs of R and S enantiomers in each crystal cell (a = 15.591(1) Å, b = 12.691(1) Å, and c = 5.589(1) Å). Spectroscopic NMR data gave evidence that the isolated compound is actually the alcohol just before the dehydration process that yields the double bond of the 4-styrylpyridine.     

X-ray crystal and molecular structure of upper rim monoformylated calix[4]arene system

Selective formylation under controlled conditions leads to the formation of a monoformylated compound 11-formyl-25,27-bis(ethoxycarbonylmethoxy)-calix[4]arene (1). The spectroscopic results indicated that the calix[4]arene is present in a cone conformation. The crystal and molecular structure of (1) has been determined by X-ray diffraction methods.

Methyl 4-((E)-2-{3-[(3-{ (E)-2-[4-(methoxycarbonyl)phenyl]- 1-diazenyl}-5,5-dimethylhexahydro-1-pyrimidinyl)methyl]-5,5-dimethylhexahydro-1-pyrimidinyl-1-diazenyl) benzoate. X-ray crystal structure

Methyl 4-((E)-2-{3-[(3-{(E)-2-[4-(methoxycarbonyl)phenyl]-1-diazenyl}-5, 5-dimethyl hexahydro-1-pyrimidinyl)methyl]-5, 5- dimethylhexahydro-1- pyrimidinyl}-1- diazenyl) benzoate (1) has been synthesized by reaction of a mixture of formaldehyde and 2,2-dimethyl-1,3-propanediamine with p-methoxycarbonylbenzenediazonium chloride. The crystal structure of 1 has been determined by single crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. The crystals of 1 displayed problems of disorder; the asymmetric unit is built up by two independent molecules, which display disorder within a methoxycarbonyl group. The two independent molecules in the asymmetric unit are very similar, differing only slightly about the mutual orientation of the aryltriazenyl groups. With respect to the N–C–N bridge between the hexahydropyrimidinyl rings, the two equivalent fragments containing the triazene moieties are in a cis orientation. The N–N single bonds, in the range 1.319(4)–1.348(4) Å, and the N=N double bonds, in the range 1.255(5)–1.275(4) Å, indicate significant conjugations within the triazene moieties. All the hexahydropyrimidine six-membered rings adopt a chair conformation as shown by their puckering parameters. The crystal packing is determined only by simple van der Waals interactions. The crystal structure of 1 is compared with the previously reported structure of the unbranched hexahydropyrimidine analogue 2. Crystal data: 1 C29H40N8O4, triclinic, space group P-1, a = 13.9652(2), b = 14.2908(3), c = 16.6129(4) Å, = 97.279(1), = 90.872(1), = 107.385(1), V = 3133.6(1) ų, for Z = 4.     

Synthesis and crystal structure of [Tb4(H2O)2](C2O4)2(C5H6O4)4

A terbium complex associating two ligands, oxalate and glutarate, was prepared under hydrothermal conditions at 200°C by treating an aqueous suspension of terbium oxalate decahydrate with glutaric acid and guanidinium carbonate. Its structure was solved by X-ray diffraction on a single crystal. It crystallizes in the monoclinic space group P2₁ with lattice constants, a = 9.514(1) Å, b = 9.0681(8) Å, c = 19.702(2) Å, and = 97.90(1)°. The terbium atoms and the oxalate ligands build dense chains which are connected by one side of the carboxylic group of some glutarate ligands, thus forming a sheet at the c level 0 and 1/2. These sheets are bridged by glutarate groups. The terbium atoms are ninefold coordinate with nine oxygen atoms of the ligands or with one water molecule and eight oxygen atoms of the ligands. Each polyhedron of the terbium atoms share one edge and one face of oxygen atoms with the two neighboring ones. The oxalate ligands are bischelating and bismonodentate. The coordination scheme of glutarate differs: either they are bismonodentate from one side and chelating and monodentate from the other side or they are chelating and monodentate from both sides.     

X-Ray crystal structure determination of a series of 1-aryl- 2-[3-(3-[2-aryl-1-diazenyl]-1,3-diazepan-1-ylmethyl)-1, 3-diazepan-1-yl]-1-diazenes obtained from the reaction of diazonium salts with mixtures of formaldehyde and 1,4-diaminobutane

A new series of bis-triazenes, the 1-aryl-2-[3-(3-[2-aryl-1-diazenyl]-1,3-diazepan-1-ylmethyl)-1,3-diazepan-1-yl]-1-diazenes has been synthesized from the reaction of diazonium salts with a mixture of 1,4-diaminobutane and formaldehyde. The structures of 1-(p-bromophenyl)-2-[3-{3-[2-(p-bromophenyl)-1-diazenyl]-1,3-diazepan-1-ylmethyl}-1,3-diazepan-1-yl]-1-diazene(1), 1-(p-cyanophenyl)-2-[3-{3-[2-(p-cyanophenyl)-1-diazenyl]-1,3-di azepan-1-ylmethyl}-1,3-diazepan-1-yl]-1-diazene(2), and 1-(p-methoxyphenyl)-2-[3-{3-[2-(p-methoxy-phenyl)-1-diazenyl]-1,3-diazepan-1-ylmethyl}-1,3-diazepan-1-yl]-1 diazene(3) have been unequivocally determined by X-ray crystallography. The new bis-triazenes are important since the structure contains the novel saturated heterocycle, 1,3-diazepane. The general conclusion of this study is that alkanediamines with 3 or 4 carbon atoms in the spacer link between the nitrogen atoms give rise to the linear bicyclic molecules of type 5, in contrast to the case of ethylenediamine (spacer link 2 carbon atoms), which affords molecules of type 6, which exemplify the general cage structure of type 4. The crystal structures of 1, 2 and 3 are compared with the previously reported structure of the hexahydropyrimidine analogue 8a(X=CN); compounds 2 and 8a(X=CN) are homologous with respect to the alkane spacer moiety. The structures of 2 and 8a(X=CN) are very different in one respect; in 2 the aryldiazenyl-1,3-diazepanyl groups are in the s-trans orientation around the central methylene group whereas in 8a(X=CN) the arrangement of the aryldiazenyl-hexahydropyrimidinyl groups is the s-cis orientation.Crystal data: 1 C₂₃H₃₀N₈Br₂, triclinic, space group P-1, a=8.3979(2), b=10.7828(3), c=14.4692(5) ?, α=83.670(1), β=78.662(1), γ=78.758(1)°, V=1256.48(6) ?³, for Z=2. 2 C₂₅H₃₀N₁₀, monoclinic, space group P2 ₁ /n, a=13.4046(6), b=9.4482(4), c=10.6913(4)?, β=103.239(2)°, V=2490.5(2) ?³, for Z=4. 3 C₂₅H₃₆N₈O₂, triclinic, space group P-1, a=8.5223(3), b=10.6913(4), c=14.4034(7)?, α=85.657(2), β=78.731(2), γ=80.153(1)°, V=1266.88(9) ?³, for Z=2.
