The reaction of di-2-pyridyl ketone with antimony(III) fluoride. Preparation and crystal structure of difluoro (hydroxodi-2-pyridylmethoxo-NN′O)antimony(III)

The synthesis and the crystal and molecular structure of the difluoro(hydroxodi-2-pyridylmethoxo-NNO) antimony(III) compound determined by single crystal X-ray diffraction analysis are reported. Crystals are orthorhombic, space group Pbcn,a=12.732(2),b=12.165(2),c=15.936(2) Å. Refinement based on 1516 observed reflections led to a finalR value of 0.025 (Rw=0.028). In the crystal the di-2-pyridyl ketone behaves asfacial-(NNO)-terdentate in the Sb coordination, the square pyramid geometry around the metal is completed by the coordination of two fluorine atoms.     

Spectroscopic, Thermal and Structural Studies of Cocrystals of 2,2′-Diamino-4,4′-bis(1,3-thiazole) with 2,5-Bis(4-pyridyl)-3,4-Diaza-2,4-Hexadiene and 1,2-Bis(4-pyridyl)Ethylenediamine

Abstract  

Two cocrystals of 2,2′-diamino-4,4′-bis(1,3-thiazole) (DABTZ) with 2,5-bis(4-pyridyl)-3,4-diaza-2,4-hexadiene (bpdh) and 1,2-bis(4-pyridyl)ethylenediamine (bpen) {[(DABTZ)(bpdh)] and [(DABTZ)(bpen)], respectively} have been synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis, IR-, ¹H NMR-, ¹³C NMR spectroscopy and were studied by thermal analysis and X-ray crystallography. Self-assembly of these compounds in the solid state is likely caused by hydrogen bonding with minor contributions from π–π stacking, C–H···π and possibly charge transfer interactions.     

Mechanochromic Photoluminescent Liquid Crystals Containing 5,5′-Bis(2-phenylethynyl)-2,2′-bithiophene

5,5′-Bis(2-phenylethynyl)-2,2′-bithiophene derivative 1 containing dendritic moieties linked through amide groups was synthesized. Compound 1 exhibits a rectangular columnar phase on slow cooling from the isotropic liquid. In contrast, a cubic phase is formed as a metastable liquid-crystalline phase by rapid cooling of the isotropic melt. Mechanical shearing induces a cubic–columnar phase transition, accompanied by the change of a photoluminescent color from yellow-green to green. The infrared spectra of 1 suggest that the mechanical stimuli can induce the partial dissociation of the hydrogen bond. This may lead to more disordering of the π-stacks of chromophores.

Structure of 2-(2′-bromo-5′-nitrostyryl)benzothiazole

The title compound C₁₅H₉BrN₂O₂S (brnsb) is monoclinic, witha=7.730(2),b=26.847(5),c=7.773(2) Å,=117.48(1)°,V=1431(1) ų,Z=4,D _x=1.677,(MoK)=29.9 cm^–1,F(000)=720,T=298K in space groupP2₁/c. The structure was solved by heavy atom and Fourier methods and refined toR=0.034 for 1776 unique observed reflections. The molecule is nearly planar, with a dihedral angle of only 3.8(1.1)° between the benzothiazole and phenyl rings. The C-S-C angle in the thiazole ring is 89.0°, while the C-N-C angle in that ring is 111.5(3)°.     

The molecular structure of acetato[2-(pyridin-2′-yl)phenyl]mercury(II)

The crystal structure of the title compound was determined by X-ray crystallography. The compound crystallizes in the monoclinic crystal system witha=8.152(4),b=17.994(7),c=8.634(9) Å, =108.92(5)°, space group P2₁/c (N:14),V=1198.02 ų,Z=4. The mercuryl(II) atom forms two strong, almost colinear bonds (bond angle 176.1(4)°) with a carbon of the phenyl ring (Hg–C=1.99(1) Å) and one of the acetate oxygen atoms (Hg–O(1)=2.005(7) Å). These primary bonds are supplemented by secondary intramolecular interactions with the pyridine nitrogen (Hg...N=2.727(9) Å) and the other acetate oxygen (Hg...O(2)=2.925(8) Å), although the latter is very weak and the acetate anion therefore practically monodentate. Weak additional intermolecular Hg–C and Hg–O(1)interactions contribute to the lattice structure.     

Structural investigation of (Z)-N-acetyl-β(3′-pyridyl)-dehydroalanine methyl ester

The crystal and molecular structure of the methyl ester of (Z)-N-acetyl-(3-pyridyl)-dehydroalanine [methylZ-2-acetamido-3(3-pyridyl) propenoate] have been determined from three-dimensional X-ray data. Crystals are monoclinic, space groupP2₁]. The molecular [=–51.5(5),=157.0(4)°] conformation is discussed making reference to previous experimental results of analogous amino acid derivatives (in particular, ethyl (Z)-N-acetyldehydrophenylalaninate) and theoretical predictions. On the basis of He(I) and He(II) photoelectron spectra, a similar conformation is proposed for the title molecule in the vapor phase also.     

Structural study of nitrovinylindoles: (I) 2-methyl-3-(2′-methyl-2′-nitrovinyl)indole and (II) 3-(2′-nitrovinyl)indole

Compound (II) is 3-(2-nitrovinyl)indole, C₁₀H₈N₂O₂,M _r=188.18, monoclinic,P2₁/n,a=10.178(1),b=10.608(1),c=8.411(1) Å,=105.5(2)°,V=875.0(1) ų,Z=4,D _x=1.4284 g cm^–3, CuK, =1.5418 Å,=8.068 cm^–1,F(000)=392, room temperature,R=0.040 for 1330 observed reflections. Compounds (I) and (II) have a similar geometry, the only significant difference lying in the rotation of the nitrovinyl chain. This feature could be responsible for the difference in biological activity. In both compounds, the molecules are associated, forming charge-transfer complexes.

Distortions in nitramine substituted cubanes: The structures of N,N′-dinitro-1,4-diaminocubane,N,N′-dinitro-N,N′-(2-pyridyl)-1,4-diaminocubane,and 1,2,4,7-tetrakis(N-methoxycarbonylnitramino)cubane

The structures of three nitramine substituted cubane molecules, N,N-dinitro-1,4-diaminocubane (1), N,N-dinitro-N,N-(2-pyridyl)-1,4-diaminocubane (2), and 1,2,4,7-Tetrakis(N-methoxycarbonylnitramino)-cubane (3), have been determined.1 crystallized in the space group P2₁/a with cell dimensionsa=6.545(1),b=9.331(1),c=7.459(1) Å, =105.80(1),2 crystallized in the monoclinic space group P2₁/a with cell dimensionsa=7.545(2),b=8.697(3),c=12.406(4 Å, =96.28(3)°, while3 crystallized in the monoclinic space group P2₁/c with cell dimensionsa=10.866(3),b=6.866(2),c=16.167(6) Å, =108.79(3)°. The metrical parameters of the cubane skeleton showed no significant deviations from those found in other similarly substituted cubane molecules. For2 and3 there were considerable distortions of the nitramine moiety from planarity in contrast to1 where the nitramine moiety was almost exactly planar. The bond distances and angles for the nitramine group in1 indicates a substantial introduction of double bond character into the N–N bond in1, achieved by delocalization of the amine lone pair, compared with2 and3.

X-ray crystal structure of 2-hydroxy-2′-(1,4-bisoxo-6-hexanol)-1,1′-biphenyl

The X-ray crystal structure of 2-hydroxy-2-(1,4-bisoxo-6-hexanol)-1,1-biphenyl, 3, is presented. This molecule crystallizes in the monoclinic space group P2₁/n (a = 9.440(2), b = 12.679(3), c = 11.679(3) Å = 94.60(2)° V = 1382.5(5) ų; Z = 4). One of the unique features of the X-ray structure of 3 is the intramolecular hydrogen bonding. The hydrogens of the phenolic and hydroxy groups occupies bridging positions via hydrogen bonding to an ether oxygen (O₁) and a phenolic oxygen (O₄), respectively. This hydrogen bonding does not affect the interplanar angle between phenyl rings (49.34°), which is in the range expected for ortho-disubstituted biphenyl compounds. The hydrogen bonding of this type explains why it is difficult to alkylate both phenoxy groups of 2,2-biphenol with tetrahydropyranyl protected 2-(2-chloroethoxy)ethanol.

The Metabolemeter III: Phase Behaviour Under Pressure of bis-(4-4′-n-Heptyloxybenzylidene)- 1, 4-Phenylenediamine and Terephthalylidene-bis-(4-n-Decylaniline)

By using a metabolemeter, the phase transitions of bis-[4, 4′-n-heptyloxybenzylidene]-1, 4 phenylenediamine (HBPD) and terephthalylidene-bis-[4-n-decylaniline] (TBDA) have been studied. The weakly first order phase transitions (S_G-S_F and S_F-S_I) and the narrowly separated phase transitions (S_C-S_A and S_A-I) of TBDA are detectable. For HBPD, both transitions S_G-S_I and S_I-S_C are individually observed and the enthalpy changes are deduced from pressure increments at the tranformations: two triple points are detected, one directly by a change of slope in the drawing of the equilibrium curves. The pressure-temperature phase diagrams are given; for each transiton, the volume increases on increasing the temperture.

The anthraquinone moiety is distorted due to intramolecular steric hindrance from the tosylate groups.
