Alkaloide aus Evonymus europaea L.

From the seeds of Evonymus europaea L. (Celastraceae) the three previously described alkaloids A, B and C were isolated and their empirical formulae determined by mass spectrometry. Alkaloid B, now named evozine, C₃₂H₃₉NO₁₅ ( 14 ), alkaloid A, now named evorine, C₃₄H₄₁NO₁₆ ( 15 ), and alkaloid C, shown to be identical with Parter's & Libiseller's evonine, C₃₆H₄₃NO₁₇ ( 17 ), are respectively tri-, tetra-, and penta-O-acetyl derivatives of deacetylevonine ( 13 ), C₂₆H₃₃NO₁₂. Vigorous alkaline hydrolysis of the latter yields the previously known evonic acid ( 3 ). Deacetylevonine ( 13 ) is an ester of evonic acid ( 3 ) and a hypothetical polyhydroxy compound C₁₅H₂₄O₁₀ ( 2 ), which is unstable on alkaline hydrolysis. By partial saponification and partial acetylation, these three alkaloids can be converted into each other, at the same time giving rise to a fourth alkaloid D ( 16 ), C₃₄H₄₁NO₁₆, which we name iso-evorine. This had been obtained already by M. Osowiecki (unpublished).     

Crystal packing in the structures of diethanolamine derivatives

Four distinct hydrogen‐bonding topologies were observed in the structures of six diethanolamine ligands. These compounds are (1R*,2R*)‐2‐[(2‐hydroxyethyl)(methyl)amino]‐1,2‐diphenylethanol, C₁₇H₂₁NO₂, (I), 1‐[(2S)‐2‐(hydroxydiphenylmethyl)pyrrolidin‐1‐yl]‐2‐methylpropan‐2‐ol, C₂₁H₂₇NO₂, (II), 2‐[(2‐hydroxyethyl)(methyl)amino]‐1,1‐diphenylethanol, C₁₇H₂₁NO₂, (III), 1‐{(2‐hydroxy‐2‐methylpropyl)[(1S)‐1‐phenylethyl]amino}‐2‐methylpropan‐2‐ol, C₁₆H₂₇NO₂, (IV), 1‐{[(2R)‐2‐hydroxy‐2‐phenylethyl][(1S)‐1‐phenylethyl]amino}‐2‐methylpropan‐2‐ol, C₂₀H₂₇NO₂, (V), and (1R*,2S*)‐2‐[(2‐hydroxyethyl)(methyl)amino]‐1,2‐diphenylethanol, C₁₇H₂₁NO₂, (VI). In each compound, all `active' hydroxy H atoms are engaged in hydrogen bonding, but the N atoms are not involved in intermolecular hydrogen bonding. In the structures of (I), (II) and (IV)–(VI), molecules are linked into chains by intermolecular O—H...O interactions. These chains are organized in such a way as to hide the hydrophilic groups inside, and so the outer surfaces of the chains are hydrophobic. The structure of (VI) contains two distinct non‐equivalent systems of intermolecular O—H...O hydrogen bonds formed by disordered hydroxy H atoms.     

Four related benzazepine derivatives in a reaction pathway leading to a benzazepine carboxylic acid: hydrogen‐bonded assembly in zero,one, two and three dimensions

(2R*,4S*)‐Methyl 2,3,4,5‐tetrahydro‐1,4‐epoxy‐1H‐benz[b]azepine‐2‐carboxylate, C₁₂H₁₃NO₃, (I), and its reduction product (2R*,4S*)‐methyl 4‐hydroxy‐2,3,4,5‐tetrahydro‐1H‐benz[b]azepine‐2‐carboxylate, C₁₂H₁₅NO₃, (II), both crystallize as single enantiomers in the space group P2₁2₁2₁, while the hydrolysis product (2RS,4SR)‐4‐hydroxy‐2,3,4,5‐tetrahydro‐1H‐benz[b]azepine‐2‐carboxylic acid, C₁₁H₁₃NO₃, (III), and the lactone (2RS,5SR)‐8‐(trifluoromethoxy)‐5,6‐dihydro‐1H‐2,5‐methanobenz[e][1,4]oxazocin‐3(2H)‐one, C₁₂H₁₀F₃NO₃, (IV), both crystallize as racemic mixtures in the space group P2₁/c. The molecules of compound (IV) are linked into centrosymmetric R₂²(10) dimers by N—H...O hydrogen bonds, and those of compound (I) are linked into chains by C—H...π(arene) hydrogen bonds. A combination of O—H...O and O—H...N hydrogen bonds links the molecules of compound (III) into sheets containing equal numbers of R₄⁴(14) and R₄⁴(26) rings, and a combination of C—H...π(arene) hydrogen bonds and three‐centre O—H...(N,O) hydrogen bonds links the molecules of compound (II) into a three‐dimensional framework structure. Comparisons are made with some related compounds.     

(Z)‐1‐Ferrocenyl‐3‐(3‐hydroxy­anilino)­but‐2‐en‐1‐one and (Z)‐1‐ferrocenyl‐3‐(4‐hydroxy­anilino)­but‐2‐en‐1‐one

The title compounds, both [Fe(C₅H₅)(C₁₅H₁₄NO₂)], crystallize with Z′ = 2 in the centrosymmetric space group P. In each compound, there is an intra­molecular N—H⋯O=C hydrogen bond, and pairs of inter­molecular O—H⋯O=C hydrogen bonds link the mol­ecules into chains, parallel to [10] in the 3‐hydr­oxy compound and parallel to [10] in the 4‐hydr­oxy compound.

A biodistribution study in mice with implanted B16 melanoma indicates that the compound locates in neoplastic tissue at concentrations which suggest that its use in ¹⁰B neutron capture therapy may be feasible.     

Poly[μ2‐4‐aminobenzoato‐aqua‐μ2‐nitrato‐zinc]

In the title compound, [Zn(C₇H₆NO₂)(NO₃)(H₂O)]_n, the Zn atom is coordinated by two nitrate ions, one aqua molecule and two 4‐aminobenzoate ions in a distorted octahedral geometry. The structure of the compound exhibits a two‐dimensional layer, which is formed by the interconnection of [Zn(C₇H₆NO₂)(H₂O)]_n chains viaμ₂‐nitrate bridges or by the interconnection of [Zn(NO₃)(H₂O)]_n chains viaμ₂‐4‐aminobenzoate bridges.     

Five solvates of a multicomponent pharmaceutical salt formed by berberine and diclofenac

A multicomponent pharmaceutical salt formed by the isoquinoline alkaloid berberine (5,6‐dihydro‐9,10‐dimethoxybenzo[g]‐1,3‐benzodioxolo[5,6‐a]quinolizinium, BBR) and the nonsteroidal anti‐inflammatory drug diclofenac {2‐[2‐(2,6‐dichloroanilino)phenyl]acetic acid, DIC} was discovered. Five solvates of the pharmaceutical salt form were obtained by solid‐form screening. These five multicomponent solvates are the dihydrate (BBR–DIC·2H₂O or C₂₀H₁₈NO₄⁺·C₁₄H₁₀Cl₂NO₂^?·2H₂O), the dichloromethane hemisolvate dihydrate (BBR–DIC·0.5CH₂Cl₂·2H₂O or C₂₀H₁₈NO₄⁺·C₁₄H₁₀Cl₂NO₂^?·0.5CH₂Cl₂·2H₂O), the ethanol monosolvate (BBR–DIC·C₂H₅OH or C₂₀H₁₈NO₄⁺·C₁₄H₁₀Cl₂NO₂^?·C₂H₅OH), the methanol monosolvate (BBR–DIC·CH₃OH or C₂₀H₁₈NO₄⁺·C₁₄H₁₀Cl₂NO₂^?·CH₃OH) and the methanol disolvate (BBR–DIC·2CH₃OH or C₂₀H₁₈NO₄⁺·C₁₄H₁₀Cl₂NO₂^?·2CH₃OH), and their crystal structures were determined. All five solvates of BBR–DIC (1:1 molar ratio) were crystallized from different organic solvents. Solvent molecules in a pharmaceutical salt are essential components for the formation of crystalline structures and stabilization of the crystal lattices. These solvates have strong intermolecular O…H hydrogen bonds between the DIC anions and solvent molecules. The intermolecular hydrogen‐bond interactions were visualized by two‐dimensional fingerprint plots. All the multicomponent solvates contained intramolecular N—H…O hydrogen bonds. Various π–π interactions dominate the packing structures of the solvates.     

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.

Each nitro­gen ligand bonded to the metallic centre has a different hybridization state.

A series of five binary complexes, i.e. three cocrystals and two molecular salts, using 2‐chloro‐4‐nitrobenzoic acid as a coformer have been produced with five commonly available compounds, some of pharmaceutical relevance, namely, 2‐chloro‐4‐nitrobenzoic acid–isonicotinamide (1/1), C₇H₄ClNO₄·C₆H₆N₂O, 2‐chloro‐4‐nitrobenzoic acid–3,3‐diethylpyridine‐2,4(1H,3H)‐dione (2/1), 2C₇H₄ClNO₄·C₉H₁₃NO₂, 2‐chloro‐4‐nitrobenzoic acid–pyrrolidin‐2‐one (1/1), C₇H₄ClNO₄·C₄H₇NO, 2‐carboxypiperidinium 2‐chloro‐4‐nitrobenzoate, C₆H₁₂NO₂^?·C₇H₃ClNO₄^?, and (2‐hydroxyethyl)ammonium 2‐chloro‐4‐nitrobenzoate, C₂H₈NO⁺·C₇H₃ClNO₄^?. The coformer falls under the classification of a `generally regarded as safe' compound. All five complexes make use of a number of different heteromeric hydrogen‐bonded interactions. Intermolecular potentials were evaluated using the CSD‐Materials module.

The coordinated cation contains a six-coordinate nickel atom chelated by three phenanthroline ligands, resulting in a distorted octahedral arrangement with the six Ni-N distances ranging from 2.086(2) to 2.113(3) Å. In addition to the nickel coordination complex, there are two anions, NO₃ and C₂H₅OP(O)O^-, and three water molecules which complete the crystal structure. In the solid state, the title compound forms a three dimensional network structure through hydrogen bonds. The intermolecular hydrogen bonds connect the [Ni(phen)₃]²⁺, NO₃, C₂H₅OP(O)O^- and H₂O molecules.     

Lanthanon (III) Complexes of Bifunctional Tridentate and Tetradentate Schiff Bases

Reactions of isopropoxides of praseodymium, neodymium and samarium with bifunctional tridentate and tetradentate schiff bases (i.e. salicylidene-O-aminophenol and bis-salicylaldehyde ethylenediamine) have been carried out in benzene in different stoichiometric ratios resulting in the formation of products with the formula M(OPrⁱ)(C₁₁H₉NO₂), M(C₁₃H₉NO₂)(C₁₃H₁₀NO₂). M₂(C₁₃H₉NO₂) M(OPrⁱ)(C₁₅H₁₄N₂O₂), M(C₁₆H₁₄N₂O₂)(C₁₆H₁₅N₂O₂) and M₂(C₁₆H₁₄N₂O₂)₃ (where M stands for Pr, Nd and Sm). The products were found to be yellow to orange solids soluble in benzene and alcohol. The absorption spectra of these complexes were also recorded in methanol.     

The NiII,HgII and CuII complexes of 12‐membered‐ring mixed‐donor macrocycles

The structures of di­aqua(1,7‐dioxa‐4‐thia‐10‐aza­cyclo­do­decane)­nickel dinitrate, [Ni(C₈H₁₇NO₂S)(H₂O)₂](NO₃)₂, (I), bis­(nitrato‐O,O′)(1,4,7‐trioxa‐10‐aza­cyclo­do­decane)­mercury, [Hg(NO₃)₂(C₈H₁₇NO₃)], (II), and aqua­(nitrato‐O)(1‐oxa‐4,7,10‐tri­aza­cyclo­do­decane)copper nitrate, [Cu(NO₃)(C₈H₁₉N₃O)(H₂O)]NO₃, (III), reveal each macrocycle binding in a tetradentate manner. The conformations of the ligands in (I) and (III) are the same and distinct from that identified for (II). These differences are in agreement with molecular‐mechanics predictions of ligand conformation as a function of metal‐ion size.     

Hydrogen bonding in two benzene‐1,2‐diaminium pyridine‐2‐carboxylate salts and a cocrystal of benzene‐1,2‐diamine and benzoic acid

The isostructural salts benzene‐1,2‐diaminium bis(pyridine‐2‐carboxylate), 0.5C₆H₁₀N₂²⁺·C₆H₄NO₂^?, (1), and 4,5‐dimethylbenzene‐1,2‐diaminium bis(pyridine‐2‐carboxylate), 0.5C₈H₁₄N₂²⁺·C₆H₄NO₂^?, (2), and the 1:2 benzene‐1,2‐diamine–benzoic acid cocrystal, 0.5C₆H₈N₂·C₇H₆O₂, (3), are reported. All of the compounds exhibit extensive N—H…O hydrogen bonding that results in interconnected rings. O—H…N hydrogen bonding is observed in (3). Additional π–π and C—H…π interactions are found in each compound. Hirshfeld and fingerprint plot analyses reveal the primary intermolecular interactions and density functional theory was used to calculate their strengths. Salt formation by (1) and (2), and cocrystallization by (3) are rationalized by examining pK_a differences. The R₂²(9) hydrogen‐bonding motif is common to each of these structures.     

Synthesis,spectroscopic characterization,and antibacterial assays in vitro of a new platinum(II) complex with methionine sulfoxide

A new platinum(II) complex with methionine sulfoxide was synthesized and characterized by chemical and spectroscopic techniques. Elemental analyses, mass spectrometric measurements (electrospray ionization quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectrometry), and thermal analyses of the solid compound fit the composition [(C₅H₁₀NO₃S)Pt(µ-Cl)₂Pt(C₅H₁₀NO₃S)]?·?2.5H₂O. Infrared spectroscopic data indicate coordination of the ligand to Pt(II) through the nitrogen of NH₂ and the sulfur of the S=O group. ¹H-¹⁵N nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopic data confirm nitrogen coordination. Antibacterial activities were evaluated by antibiogram assays using the disc diffusion method. The platinum(II) complex showed antibacterial activity against Gram-negative Pseudomonas aeruginosa bacterial cells.
