Analysis of C–H···O Intermolecular Interactions in 4-Androstene-3,17-dione

Abstract  4-Androstene-3,17-dione was synthesized for its crystallographic analysis and to investigate the role of intra- and intermolecular interactions in steroids. It crystallizes in the orthorhombic space group P2₁2₁2₁ with unit cell parameters, a = 7.330(2) ?, b = 13.095(11) ?, c = 16.856(17) ?, V = 1,618(5) ?³ and Z = 4. The structure has been solved by direct methods using X-ray diffraction techniques and the refined final reliability index for the computed structure is 0.033 for 1,655 observed reflections. Two six-membered rings B and C exist in chair conformation while ring A occupies a sofa conformation. The five-membered ring D depicts envelope conformation. The C–H···O intermolecular hydrogen interaction results into a ring like configuration which makes the dimers. Index Abstract   Androgen is the generic term for any natural or synthetic compound, usually a steroid hormone, that stimulates or controls the development and maintenance of masculine characteristics in vertebrates by binding to androgen receptors [1]. Androgens have been used in breast cancer when excision or radiotherapy have failed to control the progress of local recurrent disease. They are also used in case where the primary tumour is inoperable or is unsuited for, or resistant to, radiotherapy. Androgens are also believed to be responsible for linear bone growth in both males and females, probably in conjunction with somatotrophin [2]. In continuation to our work on the single crystal growth of X-ray diffraction quality crystals and crystallographic analysis of steroidal molecules, [3-7] synthesis and crystallographic study 4-androstene-3,17-dione is reported in this paper.

Synthesis and crystal structure of [Ni(H2O)6](C19H17O9S)2·2H2O

A water soluble flavonoid sulfate, [Ni(H₂O)₆](C₁₉H₁₇O₉S)₂·2H₂O was synthesized and its structure was determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. The crystal of it belongs to triclinic crystal system, space group P–1. The results show that the title compound consists of [Ni(H₂O)₆]²⁺, C₁₉H₁₇O₆SO₃ ⁻ and H₂O. Ni(II) is located on the symmetry center and octahedrally coordinated by six water molecules. A variety of hydrogen bonds among [Ni(H₂O)₆]²⁺, C₁₉H₁₇O₆SO₃ ⁻ and the lattice water molecules build a hydrophilic region. Aromatic π–π stacking interactions assemble isoflavone skeletons into a column and the columns form a hydrophobic region of the title compound. The sulfo-groups bridge the hydrophilic regions and the hydrophobic regions as well as the inorganic components and organic components. Hydrogen bonds, stacking interactions and the electrostatic interactions between cation [Ni(H₂O)₆]²⁺ and anion sulfonate C₁₉H₁₇O₆SO₃ ⁻ lead the moieties to a three-dimensional structure.
