Refluxing 2,3-dichloromaleic anhydride with p-anisidine in benzene with water removal gives the condensation product 2,3-dichloro-N-(p-MeOC₆H₄)maleimide (1) 75% yield. This new maleimide compound reacts with added ethanethiol in the presence of Et₃N or DBU to furnish the bidentate sulfide ligand 2,3-bis(ethylthio)-N-(p-MeOC₆H₄)maleimide (2) in 85% yield. Each product has been characterized in solution by IR, NMR, and UV-vis spectroscopies, and the solid-state structure of 2,3-bis(ethylthio)-N-(p-MeOC₆H₄)maleimide was unequivocally established by single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. 2,3-bis(Ethylthio)-N-(p-MeOC₆H₄)maleimide crystallizes in the monoclinic space group C2/c, a = 20.035(3)Å, b = 9.188(1)Å, c = 16.887(2)Å, = 93.696(2)°, V = 3102.3(8)ų, Z = 8, and D_calcd = 1.385 mg/m³; R = 0.0268, R_w = 0.0676 for 2025 reflections with I > 2 (I).

Synthesis and X-ray structural investigations have been carried out for the two title compounds C₁₄H₁₀N₂O (3a) and C₂₂H₂₆N₂O (3b). Compound 3a crystallizes in the monoclinic space group P2₁/c, with a = 3.843(1) Å, b = 24.618(5) Å, c = 11.318(2) Å, = 92.61(3), V = 1069.7(4) Å,³ and Z = 4.

Both stilbazole derivatives have Z-geometry about the ethylene bridge which links the heterocyclic and aromatic rings. The molecular skeleton of 3a is slightly non-planar: the dihedral angles between the acrylonitrile linkage and the pyridine ring, and between this linkage and the p-hydroxyphenyl ring are 7.2(2) and 4.1(2), respectively. The molecular skeleton of 3b is less planar: the values of similar dihedral angles are 17.0(2) and 20.8(2), respectively. In the crystal of 3a, the molecules are packed in stacks along the a axis with head-to-head orientation. Intermolecular hydrogen bonds O=H s N and C=H s N link molecules into sheets parallel to (100) plane. In the crystals of 3b, the molecules have a head-to-tail orientation and intermolecular hydrogen bonds O=H s N link the molecules into infinite chains along [01-1] direction.

4-(E)-2-[3-(3-[(E)-2-(4-cyanophenyl)-1-diazenyl]hexahydro-1-pyrimidinylmethyl)hexahydro-1-pyrimidinyl]-1-diazenylbenzonitrile (1) has been synthesized by reaction of p-cyanobenzene diazonium chloride with a mixture of formaldehyde and 1,3-propanediamine. The crystal structure has been determined by single crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. The bis-triazene (1) adopts a folded conformation, similar to previously studied ethylenediamine analogues, and there is evidence of -stacking in the crystal packing. The two planar phenyltriazenyl groups are almost parallel, forming an angle of 6.6(1), and display weak intermolecular s interactions between molecules. This result establishes the structure of the product of this diazonium coupling reaction as the 1-(1-hexahydropyimidinylmethyl)hexahydropyrimidine derivative and not the alternate tetraazabicyclo[5.5.1]tridecane derivative. Crystal data: 1C₂₃H₂₆N₁₀, monoclinic, space group P2₁/c, a = 10.717(1) Å, b = 7.749(1) Å, c = 28.252(2) Å, = 97.223(2), V = 2327.5(5) ų, for Z = 4.

Crystal structure analysis of (<Emphasis Type="Italic">N</Emphasis>-methyl piperazino) (phenyl) (dicyclohexylamino) phosphiniminocyclotrithiazene

The title compound (NC₄H₈NCH₃)(C₆H₅)[N(C₆H₁₁)₂]P{—N–S₃N₃ crystallizes in the triclinic crystal system with unit cell dimensions: a = 9.7572(2), b = 10.6845(1), c = 16.9381(3) Å, = 71.75(1), = 80.65(2), = 65.93(1), and Z = 2. The tricoordinated sulfur atom (S1) in the cyclotrithiazene deviates from the mean plane of the other five atoms by 0.716(6) Å, which is the highest among the known phosphiniminocyclotrithiazene structures. In the exocyclic P{—N4–S1 moiety, the two bond distances are short: 1.585(6) and 1.527(6) Å; but the bond angle is large 135.3(4). The S1 displacement is highly correlated with the endocyclic angle at the nitrogen atom (diagonally opposite to S1), but the nature of correlation is bimodal (R = 1.0 + or –1.0) for the cyclic and acyclic substituents (R) in the (R)(C₆H₅)[N(C₆H₁₁)₂]P{—N–S₃N₃ series. On the other hand, the S1–N4 bond distances are negatively correlated (R = –0.94) with the P{—N4–S1 bond angle in the above series.
