Three polymorphs of 4‐4′‐diiodobenzalazine,and 4‐chloro‐4′‐iodobenzalazine

Three polymorphs of 4,4′‐diiodobenzalazine (systematic name: 4‐iodobenzaldehyde azine), C₁₄H₁₀I₂N₂, have crystallographically imposed inversion symmetry. 4‐Chloro‐4′‐iodobenzalazine [systematic name: 1‐(4‐chlorobenzylidene)‐2‐(4‐iodobenzylidene)diazane], C₁₄H₁₀ClIN₂, has a partially disordered pseudocentrosymmetric packing and is not isostructural with any of the polymorphs of 4,4′‐diiodobenzalazine. All structures pack utilizing halogen–halogen interactions; some also have weak π (benzene ring) interactions. A comparison with previously published methylphenylketalazines (which differ by substitution of methyl for H at the azine C atoms) shows a fundamentally different geometry for these two classes, namely planar for the alazines and twisted for the ketalazines. Density functional theory calculations confirm that the difference is fundamental and not an artifact of packing forces.

4‐Aminopyridinium 4‐aminobenzoate dihydrate and 4‐aminopyridinium nicotinate

In the title compounds, 4‐aminopyridinium 4‐aminobenzoate dihydrate, C₇H₆NO₂⁻·C₅H₇N₂⁺·2H₂O, (I), and 4‐aminopyridinium nicotinate, C₅H₇N₂⁺·C₆H₄NO₂⁻, (II), the aromatic N atoms of the 4‐aminopyridinium cations are protonated. In (I), the asymmetric unit is composed of two 4‐aminopyridinium cations, two 4‐aminobenzoate anions and four water molecules, and the compound crystallizes in a noncentrosymmetric space group. The two sets of independent molecules of (I) are related by a centre of symmetry which is not part of the space group. In (I), the protonated pyridinium ring H atoms are involved in bifurcated hydrogen bonding with carboxylate O atoms to form an R₁²(4) ring motif. The water molecules link the ions to form a two‐dimensional network along the (10) plane. In (II), an intramolecular bifurcated hydrogen bond generates an R₁²(4) ring motif and inter‐ion hydrogen bonding generates an R₄²(16) ring motif. The packing of adduct (II) is consolidated via N—H...O and N—H...N hydrogen bonds to form a two‐dimensional network along the (10) plane.     

(R)‐4‐(4‐Aminophenyl)‐2,2,4‐trimethylchroman and (S)‐4‐(4‐aminophenyl)‐2,2,4‐trimethylthiachroman

The title compounds, C₁₈H₂₁NO and C₁₈H₂₁NS, in their enantiomerically pure forms are isostructural with the enantiomerically pure 4‐(4‐hydroxyphenyl)‐2,2,4‐trimethylchroman and 4‐(2,4‐dihydroxyphenyl)‐2,2,4‐trimethylchroman analogues and form extended linear chains via N—H...O or N—H...S hydrogen bonding along the [100] direction. The absolute configuration for both compounds was determined by anomalous dispersion methods with reference to both the Flack parameter and, for the light‐atom compound, Bayesian statistics on Bijvoet differences.     

3′,4′‐Bis(4‐chloro­phenyl)­spiro­[chroman‐3,5′(4′H)‐isoxazol]‐4‐one

The title compound, C₂₃H₁₅Cl₂NO₃, crystallizes with two independent mol­ecules in the asymmetric unit. The chroman­one moiety consists of a benzene ring fused with a six‐membered heterocyclic ring which adopts a sofa conformation. The five‐membered spiro­isoxazoline ring is in an envelope conformation. The p‐chloro­phenyl rings bridged by the five‐membered ring are nearly perpendicular to each other. The chromanone moiety of one mol­ecule packs into the cavity formed by the p‐chloro­phenyl rings of a second mol­ecule through the formation of C—H?π interactions. The structure is stabilized by weak C—H?O, C—H?Cl and C—H?π interactions.     

2‐(4‐Methoxyphenyl­azo)‐4‐phenyl­phenol

The crystal structure of the title compound, C₁₉H₁₆N₂O₂, displays a trans configuration of the azo moiety, which forms an intramolecular O—H?N=N hydrogen bond. The H?N and O?N distances are 1.81 (3) and 2.581 (4) Å, respectively. The azo­benzene moiety is approximately planar, and has a dihedral angle of ca 23° with the substituted phenyl group.     

4‐Ethynyl‐4‐hydroxycyclohexan‐1‐one and 4‐ethynyl‐4‐hydroxy‐2,3,5,6‐tetramethylcyclohexa‐2,5‐dien‐1‐one

The title compounds, C₈H₁₀O₂, (I), and C₁₂H₁₄O₂, (II), occurred as by‐products in the controlled synthesis of a series of bis­(gem‐alkynols), prepared as part of an extensive study of synthon formation in simple gem‐alkynol derivatives. The two 4‐(gem‐alkynol)‐1‐ones crystallize in space group P2₁/c, (I) with Z′ = 1 and (II) with Z′ = 2. Both structures are dominated by O—H?O=C hydrogen bonds, which form simple chains in the cyclo­hexane derivative, (I), and centrosymmetric dimers, of both symmetry‐independent mol­ecules, in the cyclo­hexa‐2,5‐diene, (II). These strong synthons are further stabilized by C[triple‐bond]C—H?O=C, C_methylene—H?O(H) and C_methyl—H?O(H) interactions. The direct intermolecular interactions between donors and acceptors in the gem‐alkynol group, which characterize the bis­(gem‐alkynol) analogues of (I) and (II), are not present in the ketone derivatives studied here.     

NMR studies on 1,2‐dihydro‐2‐(4‐aminophenyl)‐4‐[4‐(4‐aminophenoxy)‐4‐phenyl]‐(2H)phthalazin‐1‐one

An unsymmetrical heterocyclic diamine, 1,2‐dihydro‐2‐(4‐aminophenyl)‐4‐[4‐(4‐aminophenoxy)‐4‐phenyl]‐(2H)phthalazin‐1‐one, was synthesized. Its ¹H and ¹³C NMR spectra were completely assigned by utilizing the two‐dimensional heteronuclear ¹³C–¹H multiple‐bond coherence (HMBC) spectroscopy, and heteronuclear ¹³C–¹H one‐bond correlation spectroscopy, homonuclear shift correlation spectroscopy (H,H‐COSY) and rotating frame Overhauser enhancement spectroscopy (ROESY). The structure of the compound was shown to be the phthalazinone rather than the phthalazine ether from cross peaks and chemical shifts of the protons. Copyright © 2002 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

4‐(4‐Chloro­phen­yl)‐3‐(4‐phenyl­pent‐4‐en­yloxy)‐1,3‐thia­zole‐2(3H)‐thione

The title compound, C₂₀H₁₈ClNOS₂, is a thia­zole‐derived thio­hydroxamic acid O‐ester. The value of Z′ is 3 and the asymmetric unit comprises three mol­ecules of identical helicity along the N—O bond. Two of these show an anti and the third a syn arrangement of substituents attached in positions 3 and 4 to the 1,3‐thia­zole nucleus.     

3,17‐Dioxoandrost‐4‐en‐4‐yl acetate

The title compound, C₂₁H₂₈O₄, has a 4‐acetoxy substituent positioned on the steroid α face. The six‐membered ring A assumes a conformation intermediate between 1α,2β‐half chair and 1α‐sofa. A long Csp³—Csp³ bond is observed in ring B and reproduced in quantum‐mechanical ab initio calculations of the isolated molecule using a molecular‐orbital Hartree–Fock method. Cohesion of the crystal can be attributed to van der Waals interactions and weak C—H...O hydrogen bonds.     

4‐(4‐Hydro­xy­benzyl­idene­amino)‐4H‐1,2,4‐triazole hemihydrate

In the title compound, 4‐(4H‐1,2,4‐triazol‐4‐yl­imino­methyl)­phenol hemi­hydrate, C₉H₈N₄O·0.5H₂O or (I)·0.5H₂O, mol­ecules of (I) are arranged as layers running along the b axis through intermolecular O—H?N and C—H?O hydrogen bonds. These layers are stabilized by hydrogen‐bonded water mol­ecules to form three‐dimensional networks.     

4′‐Hydro­xy­bi­phenyl‐4‐carbo­nitrile

The title compound, C₁₃H₉NO, crystallizes with four mol­ecules in the asymmetric unit. Each of the four crystallographically independent mol­ecules forms a chain parallel to the a axis with symmetry‐equivalent mol­ecules. These chains are held together by similar O—H·NC hydrogen bonds, with approximately linear O—H·N angles and significantly bent H·N—C angles. The four different mol­ecules are related by strong elements of pseudosymmetry. To better describe the pseudosymmetry, the structure has been reported in the non‐standard space group .     

Reactions of 2‐amino‐4h‐1‐benzopyran‐4‐one with 4‐oxo‐4h‐1‐benzopyran‐3‐carbaldehydes

The title aldehyde 1 reacts smoothly with the enamine moiety of 2 ‐aminochromone 2 to produce hitherto unreported 3‐(2‐hydroxybenzoyl)‐5H‐1‐benzopyrano[2,3‐b]pyridin‐5‐one (azaxanthone) 5 . This reaction has been extended for the synthesis of bisazaxanthone 9.     

4‐(4‐Bromo­phenyl)‐2‐methyl‐1,3‐thia­zole

In the structure of the title compound, C₁₀H₈BrNS, the dihedral angles between the planes of the thia­zole and aryl rings, viz. 4.2 (6) and 7.5 (6)° for the two independent mol­ecules, are consistent with insignificant molecular perturbation by the weak intermolecular contacts. The mol­ecules are close to being related by a non‐crystallographic inversion centre, with C—H⃛π and π–π intermolecular interactions observed.     

δ‐Sulfanilamide

The δ polymorph of sulfanilamide (or 4‐aminobenzenesulfonamide), C₆H₈N₂O₂S, displays an overall three‐dimensional hydrogen‐bonded network that is dominated by a two‐dimensional substructure with R²₂(8) rings; these result from dimeric N—H...O interactions between adjacent sulfonamide groups. This study shows how the polymorphism of sulfanilamide is linked to its versatile hydrogen‐bonding capabilities.     

Ni5‐δSn4Zn (δ ∼ 0.25) from single‐crystal data

Work on the ternary Ni–Sn–Zn phase diagram revealed the existence of the title compound pentanickel tetratin zinc, Ni_3.17Sn_2.67Zn_0.67 [Schmetterer et al. (2012). Intermetallics, doi:10.1016/j.intermet.2011.05.025]. It crystallizes in the Ni₅Ga₃Ge₂ structure type (orthorhombic, Cmcm) and is related to the InNi₂ type (hexagonal, P6₃/mmc) of the neighbouring Ni₃Sn₂ high‐temperature (HT) phase, but is not a superstructure. The crystal structure was determined using single‐crystal X‐ray diffraction. Its homogeneity range was characterized using electron microprobe analysis. Phase analysis at various temperatures indicated that the phase decomposes between 1073 and 1173 K, where a more extended ternary solid solution of the Ni₃Sn₂ HT phase was found instead.     

4‐Deoxy‐4‐fluoro‐β‐d‐glucopyranose

4‐Deoxy‐4‐fluoro‐β‐d ‐glucopyranose, C₆H₁₁FO₅, (I), crystallizes from water at room temperature in a slightly distorted ⁴C₁ chair conformation. The observed chair distortion differs from that observed in β‐d ‐glucopyranose [Kouwijzer, van Eijck, Kooijman & Kroon (1995). Acta Cryst. B 51 , 209–220], (II), with the former skewed toward a B^C3,O5 (boat) conformer and the latter toward an ^O5TB_C2 (twist–boat) conformer, based on Cremer–Pople analysis. The exocyclic hydroxymethyl group conformations in (I) and (II) are similar; in both cases, the O—C—C—O torsion angle is ∼−60° (gg conformer). Intermolecular hydrogen bonding in the crystal structures of (I) and (II) is conserved in that identical patterns of donors and acceptors are observed for the exocyclic substituents and the ring O atom of each monosaccharide. Inspection of the crystal packing structures of (I) and (II) reveals an essentially identical packing configuration.     

基于1,2-二氢-2-(4-羧基苯基-4-[4-(4-羧基苯氧基)-3-甲基苯基](2H)二氮杂萘-1-酮的新型芳香聚酰胺的简易合成

A new monomer diacid, 1,2-dihydro-2-(4-carboxylphenyl)-4-[4-(4-carboxylphenoxy)-3-methylphenyl]phtha-lazin-1-one (3), was synthesized through the aromatic nucleophilic substitution reaction of a readily available unsymmetrical phthalazinone 1 bisphenol-like with p-chlorobenzonitrile in the presence of potassium carbonate in N,N-dimethylacetamide and alkaline hydrolysis. The diacid could be directly polymerized with various aromatic diamines 4a-4e using triphenyl phosphite and pyridine as condensing agents to give five new aromatic poly(ether amide)s 5a-5e containing the kink non-coplanar heterocyclic units with inherent viscosities of 1.30-1.54 dL/g.The polymers were readily soluble in a variety of solvents such as N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF), N,N-dimethyl-acetamide (DMA), dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO), N-methyl-2-pyrrolidinone (NMP), and even in m-cresol and pyridine (Py). The transparent, flexible and tough films could be formed by solution casting. The glass transition tem-peratures Tg were in the range of 286-317℃.     

1‐Methyl‐4‐nitraminopyridinium nitrate and 4‐nitraminopyridinium methanesulfonate

In the title compounds, C₆H₈N₃O₂⁺·NO₃^? and C₅­H₆­N₃­O₂⁺·­CH₃SO₃^?, respectively, the cations are almost planar; the twist of the nitr­amino group about the C—N and N—N bonds does not exceed 10°. The deviations from coplanarity are accounted for by intermolecular N—H?O interactions. The coplanarity of the NHNO₂ group and the phenyl ring leads to the deformation of the nitr­amino group. The C—N—N angle and one C—C—N angle at the junction of the phenyl ring and the nitr­amino group are increased from 120° by ca 6°, whereas the other junction C—C—N angle is decreased by ca 5°. Within the nitro group, the O—N—O angle is increased by ca 5° and one O—N—N angle is decreased by ca 5°, whereas the other O—N—N angle remains almost unchanged. The cations are connected to the anions by relatively strong N—H?O hydrogen bonds [shortest H?O separations 1.77 (2)–1.81 (3) Å] and much weaker C—H?O hydrogen bonds [H?O separations 2.30 (2)–2.63 (3) Å].
