(NH4)4Cd(HSeIVO3)2(SeVIO4)2: a new structure type with kröhnkite‐like chains

Tetra­ammonium cadmium di­hydrogenselenite(IV) diselen­ate(VI), (NH₄)₄Cd(HSe^IVO₃)₂(Se^VIO₄)₂, is the third example of a compound containing both hydrogen selenite and selenate anions, and has a new structure type. It contains kröhnkite‐like heteropolyhedral chains in which CdO₆ octahedra are linked via bridging HSeO₃ groups, having their remaining two trans apices decorated by SeO₄ groups. The charge‐balancing NH₄ groups are involved in weak hydrogen bonding, whereas the H atom of the HSeO₃ group provides a strong hydrogen bond [O⋯O = 2.614 (5) Å]. The average Cd—O bond length is 2.298 Å. All atoms are on general positions except Cd (on ). Relations to the kröhnkite‐type compounds Na₂Mg(SO₃)·2H₂O, Ba₂CoCl₂(SeO₃)₂ and Ba₂Ca(HPO₄)₂(H₂PO₄)₂, and to the mineral curetonite are dis­cussed. Unit‐cell data are given for an isotypic Mn^II analogue.     

Thallium selenate (Tl2SeO4) in a paraelastic phase by X‐ray powder diffraction

The structure of thallium selenate, Tl₂SeO₄, in a paraelastic phase (above 661 K) has been analysed by Rietveld analysis of the X‐ray powder diffraction pattern. Atomic parameters based on the isomorphic K₂SO₄ crystal in the paraelastic phase were used as the starting model. The structure was determined in the hexagonal space group P6₃/mmc, with a = 6.2916 (2) Å and c = 8.1964 (2) Å. From the Rietveld refinement it was found that two orientations are possible for the SeO₄ tetrahedra, in which one of their apices points randomly up and down with respect to [001]. One Tl atom lies at the origin with symmetry, the other Tl and one of the O atoms occupy sites with 3m symmetry, the Se atom is at a site with symmetry and the remaining O atom is at a site with m symmetry. Furthermore, it was also found that the Tl atoms display anomalously large positional disorder along [001] in the paraelastic phase.     

tert‐Butyl (6S)‐4‐hydroxy‐6‐isobutyl‐2‐oxo‐1,2,5,6‐tetra­hydropyridine‐1‐carboxyl­ate and tert‐butyl (4R,6S)‐4‐hydroxy‐6‐iso­butyl‐2‐oxopiperidine‐1‐carboxyl­ate

X‐ray studies reveal that tert‐butyl (6S)‐6‐iso­butyl‐2,4‐dioxo­piperidine‐1‐carboxyl­ate occurs in the 4‐enol form, viz. tert‐butyl (6S)‐4‐hydroxy‐6‐iso­butyl‐2‐oxo‐1,2,5,6‐tetra­hydropyri­dine‐1‐carboxyl­ate, C₁₄H₂₃NO₄, when crystals are grown from a mixture of di­chloro­methane and pentane, and has an axial orientation of the iso­butyl side chain at the 6‐position of the piperidine ring. Reduction of the keto functionality leads predominantly to the corresponding β‐hydroxy­lated δ‐lactam, tert‐butyl (4R,6S)‐4‐hydroxy‐6‐iso­butyl‐2‐oxo­piperidine‐1‐car­boxyl­ate, C₁₄H₂₅NO₄, with a cis configuration of the 4‐hydroxy and 6‐iso­butyl groups. The two compounds show similar molecular packing driven by strong O—H⋯O=C hydrogen bonds, leading to infinite chains in the crystal structure.

In the crystals of both compounds, the mol­ecules are linked together by N—H⃛O hydrogen bonds, thus forming chains in the a direction.

The Aib unit in each mol­ecule has the greatest turn‐ or helix‐inducing effect on the mol­ecular conformation. Inter­molecular N—H⋯O inter­actions link the mol­ecules of the tripeptide into sheets and those of the dipeptide into extended chains.

The structures of the Na and K complexes are isotypic. In all three complexes, the taci ligands adopt a chair conformation with axial hydroxy groups, and the metal cations exhibit exclusive O‐atom coordination. The six O atoms of the resulting MO₆ unit define a centrosymmetric trigonal antiprism with approximate D_3d symmetry. The interligand O...O distances increase significantly in the order Li < Na < K. The structure of (I) exhibits a complex three‐dimensional network of R—NH₂—H...NH₂—R, R—O—H...NH₂—R and R—O—H...O(H)—H...NH₂—R hydrogen bonds. The structures of the Na and K complexes consist of a stack of layers, in which each taci ligand is bonded to three neighbours via pairwise O—H...NH₂ interactions between vicinal HO—CH—CH—NH₂ groups.     

Precursor of a β‐lactamase inhibitor: allyl (4S,8S,9R)‐10‐[(E)‐ethyl­idene]‐4‐methoxy‐11‐oxo‐1‐aza­tri­cyclo­[7.2.0.03,8]­undec‐2‐ene‐2‐carboxyl­ate

The molecular structure of the title tricyclic compound, C₁₇H₂₁NO₄, which is the immediate precursor of a potent synthetic inhibitor {Lek157: sodium (8S,9R)‐10‐[(E)‐ethyl­idene]‐4‐methoxy‐11‐oxo‐1‐aza­tri­cyclo­[7.2.0.0^3,8]­undec‐2‐ene‐2‐carboxyl­ate} with remarkable potency, provides experimental evidence for the previously modelled relative position of the fused cyclo­hexyl ring and the carbonyl group of the β‐lactam ring, which takes part in the formation of the initial tetrahedral acyl–enzyme complex. In this hydro­phobic mol­ecule, the overall geometry is influenced by C—H?O intramolecular hydrogen bonds [3.046 (4) and 3.538 (6) Å, with corresponding normalized H?O distances of 2.30 and 2.46 Å], whereas the mol­ecules are interconnected through intermolecular C—H?O hydrogen bonds [3.335 (4)–3.575 (5) Å].     

Uncovering stereochemical relations in a compound with a stereogenic N—O axis: methyl 2‐(4‐methyl‐2‐thio­xo‐2,3‐di­hydro­thia­zol‐3‐yl­oxy)­propanoate

The geometry of racemic methyl 2‐(4‐methyl‐2‐thio­xo‐2,3‐di­hydro­thia­zol‐3‐yl­oxy)­propanoate, C₈H₁₁NO₃S₂, (I), is characterized by a distorted heterocyclic five‐membered ring and an enantiomorphic N‐alkoxy substituent, which is inclined at an angle of −68.8° to the thia­zole­thione plane in (M)‐(I). The unit cell consists of a 1:1 ratio of R,P‐ and S,M‐configured mol­ecules of (I). The combination of a P configuration at the N—O axis and an R configuration at the asymmetric propanoate C_β atom on one side, and an S,M configuration on the other side, is considered to originate from steric interactions. The largest substituent at the asymmetric propanoate C_β atom, i.e. the methoxycarbonyl group, resides above the methyl substituent; the medium‐sized propanoate γ‐methyl substituent points in the opposite direction with respect to the N—O bond, whereas the H atom is located above the C=S double bond of the thiazolethione subunit.

The structure was refined to an R value of 0.072 for 3382 observed reflections. The four crystallographically independent mol­ecules are designated A, B, C and D. All four oxa­thia­ne rings adopt the chair conformation and the purine bases are in an anti orientation with respect to the sugar moieties. Molecules A and D and mol­ecules C and B are base paired by a single hydrogen bond of the type N—H?N. These base pairs are again hydrogen bonded to their translated pairs in the direction of a cell diagonal.
