Polymorphs of nitrofurantoin. I. Preparation and X-ray crystal structures of two monohydrated forms of nitrofurantoin

The preparation and X-ray crystal structures of two monohydrates of the antibacterial drug nitro furantoin are reported. MonohydrateI crystallizes in the monoclinic space groupP2₁ n and monohydrateII in the orthorhombic space group Pbca. The nitrofurantoin molecule maintains the same, planar conformation in both crystals. The molecular packing arrangements inI andII are distinctly different,I possessing a layer structure while inII the packing is based on a herring bone motif. Hydrogen bonds of the type O-HO, N-HO, O-HN and C-HO stabilize the crystal structures.     

C-H⋯π(Ar)⋯Cl-C,C-Cl⋯π(Ar), Cl⋯Cl and other interactions in the crystal structure of 6-benzoyl-2,4-bis(trichloromethyl)-1,3-benzdioxin

The title compound is monoclinic,P2₁/n,Z=4,a=9.934(1),b=18.399(2),c=11.098(2)Å, =111.08(1)°. The molecule can conveniently be visualized as a benzophenone molecule with one of the aromatic rings fused to a 1,3-dioxin ring which adopts a distorted envelope conformation withcis-trichloromethyl groups substituted at positions 2 and 4. An interaction, observed for the first time, involves a hydrogen atom and a chlorine atom from opposite sides of the same aromatic ring to give C-H-(Ar)Cl-C. The parameters are Hring-centroid 2.63 A, Clring centroid 3.41 Å, Hring-centroidCl 167°, C-Hring centroid 159°, C-Clring centroid 150.2°. The (Ar) system is that of the unfused aromatic ring. A second (Ar) Cl-C interaction occurs but this time with the (Ar) system of the fused aromatic ring. The ClCl and ClO(=C) interactions form the familiar zig-zag pattern which has been noted for many chloroaromatic compounds.

Molecular complexes of sulfonamides. Part 1. 1∶1 complexes between sulfadimidine [4-amino-N-(4,6-dimethyl-2-pyrimidinyl)benzenesulfonamide] and 2- and 4-aminobenzoic acids

The crystal and molecular structures of the 11 complexes sulfadimidine·2-aminobenzoic acid (I) and sulfadimidine·4-aminobenzoic acid (II) are described and compared with known structures containing sulfadimidine. In each complex, molecular association is maintained by one N-HO hydrogen bond, and one O-HN hydrogen bond involving the imino N and one pyrimidinyl N atom of sulfadimidine and the two carboxyl O atoms of the aromatic acid. The conformation of the sulfadimidine molecule inII is unusual for anN ¹-substituted arylsulfonamide. Molecular dimensions for the complexed aminobenzoic acids are virtually the same as those reported for the free acids. Partial correlation between carboxylic acid strengths and the hydrogen bonded NO distances is observed in sulfadimidine complexes of this type.     

Two acetylamino derivatives of 2,4-bis(trichloromethyl)-1,3-benzdioxin showing different types of hydrogen bonding: (a) (C13C)CH⋯O=C and (b) N-H⋯O=C

8-Acetylamino-6-methyl-2,4-bis(trichloromethyl)-1,3-benzdioxin, (I), is monoclinic,P2₁/c,a=15.174(4),b=11.977(7),c=9.911(3)Å,=99.72(2)°. 6-Acetylamino-2,4-bis(trichloromethyl)-1,3-benzdioxin, (II), is monoclinic,P2₁/_n,a=5.927(4),b=40.623(1),c =7.120(3)Å,=91.39(4)°. In compound (I) the imino hydrogen atom is locked in an intramolecular hydrogen bond to the proximate oxygen atom of the heterocyclic ring and is not available for intermolecular hydrogen bonding. Instead the weakly acidic hydrogen atom [Cl₃C-C(2)]H takes part in a hydrogen bond to the carbonyl oxygen atom in another molecule. In compound (II) a normal intermolecular hydrogen bond of the type N-HO=C occurs. The 6-acetylam-ino group is twisted about the (C_Ar-N) bond such that the angles NHO=C, C_ArH_ArO=C, NHOH_ArC_Ar, at the carbonyl oxygen group total 360° (where NH is in the related molecule). The packing in both compounds takes the form of infinite chains and in compound (II) partial overlap of the aromatic ring and the acetylamino group, with very little offset, also occurs.

The structure was solved by direct methods and refined by least-squares techniques to anR factor of 0.082 for 2282 observed reflections. The X-ray structure uniquely resolves the one remaining ambiguity, namely the assignment of the correct structure4. There are two crystallographically independent molecules (A and B) and one disordered methanol molecule. Both molecular skeletons show small distortions from planarity with inclinations of 1.7 and 4.0° between the outermost rings A/C in molecules A and B, respectively. Intramolecular hydrogen bonds of the form O(3A)-HO(2A) and O(3B)-HO(2B) are observed in molecules A and B, respectively. The molecules are linked by pairs of O(3A)-HO(2B) and O(3B)-HO(2A) hydrogen bonds. The dimerlike structures are stabilized by intermolecular C-HO interactions and van der Waals forces.

The structure was solved by direct methods and refined by a full-matrix, least-squares procedure toR=0.033 for 1168 observed [I >2(I)] reflections. The sulfonamide group is at a right angle to the benzofuran ring and the dihedral angle between the benzene and furan ring is 2.0(1)°. In the crystal packing the molecules are linked together by N-HO and N-HN type hydrogen bonds arranging themselves in such a way that there are alternate hydrophobic and hydrophilic regions extended along the a-axis.

The preparation and X-ray crystal structures of two polymorphs of the antibacterial drug nitrofurantoin are reported.

The-polymorph is monoclinic, space groupP2₁/n witha=7.840(5),b=6.486(1),c=18.911(6)Å,=93.17(3)°,Z=4. The nitrofurantoin molecules adopt the same, planar conformation in both polymorphs. Both crystal structures are built up from layers held together by van der Waals forces. In each polymorph, intralayer cohesion is effected by N-HO and C-HO hydrogen bonds, but their arrangements differ in the two crystals. The significance of the C-HO hydrogen bond, now known to occur in four modifications of nitrofurantoin, is discussed.     

Molecular and crystal structure of 1-methyl-3-[(3-methylthio-4-quinolyl)thio]-1,4-dihydro-4-oxo-quinoline

The crystal structure of 1-methyl-3-[(3-methylthio-4-quinolyl)thio]-1,4-dihydro-4-oxo-quinoline has been determined. The molecule of the title compound adopts a conformation that is skew, but with a tendency to a twist. Both ortho-substituents, the carbonyl and methylthio groups, are in a cis orientation to the central C_ar-S-C_ar bridge. This mutual orientation of substituents follows from the SO and SS attractive interactions. Several short intramolecular contacts between N-methyl and neighboring protons as well as between S-methyl and neighboring protons explain the presence of the strong NOE enhancement in the NMR spectrum.Part XVII in the Series of Azinyl Sulfides.     

Molecular structure and some reactivity aspects of 2,6-diamino-4(3H)-pyrimidinone monohydrate

Crystals of C₄H₆N₄O·H₂O are orthorhombic:Pbca,a=16.721(2),b=4.242(1),c=18.293(2)Å,Z=8.

The structure consists of approximately planar molecules of the 3(H)4-one tautomer. Delocalization of the ring and the C=O-electrons, and conjugation of the lone-pair electrons of the amine groups with the pyrimidinone nucleus are observed. The molecules are connected by O-HO, N-HN, and N-HO hydrogen bonds. The molecular structure clarifies the chemical properties of the compound.     

The effect of hydrogen bonding on the bond lengths and angles in the carboxyl group

The effects of hydrogen bonding on the geometry of the carboxyl group have been studied systematically based on accurate X-ray crystallographic data. In general, the C-O(H) bond length increases with increasing O O hydrogen-bond length, while the C=O bond length decreases. These variations become less pronounced for longer O O distances. The O=C-O(H) and C-C-O(H) angles decrease with increasing O O separation, while the C-C=O angle increases. The sum of the three angles remains close to 360 °, testifying to the planarity of the carboxyl group. These correlations are not observed to hold for cyclic hydrogen-bonded dimers, indicating that a continuous variation in the degree of disorder of the protons may be present, ranging from the ordered case with easily distinguishable C=O and C-O(H), to the 50%-50% disordered case, where the two C-O distances become equal.

An intramolecular N-HO hydrogen bond was found in the molecules which are joined in chains by other strong N-HO hydrogen bonds.
