4‐[N,N‐Bis(2‐cyano­ethyl)­amino]­pyridine

The title compound, 3,3′‐(4‐pyridyl­imino)­di­propane­nitrile, C₁₁H₁₂N₄, has a twofold axis and consists of a pyridine ring head and two cyano­ethyl tails, the three groups being linked by an N atom. The planar geometry around the amino N atom suggests conjugation with the π‐system of the pyridine ring. The mol­ecules are stacked in a layer structure via relatively weak to very weak intermolecular C—H⃛π and C—H⃛N hydrogen‐bond interactions.     

A novel class of fused heterocycles,benzo­[b]­furo­[2,3‐c]­pyrroles

In the isomeric compounds 2‐benzyl‐3‐methyl‐1‐phenyl­benzo­[b]­furo­[2,3‐c]­pyrrole and 2‐benzyl‐1‐methyl‐3‐phenyl­benzo­[b]­furo­[2,3‐c]­pyrrole, both C₂₄H₁₉NO, the pyrrole ring, although presumably somewhat strained, does not differ appreciably from N‐methyl­pyrrole except for a relatively short C—C single bond in the pyrrole ring.     

1‐(2‐{4‐[6‐Hydro­xy‐2‐(4‐hydroxy­phenyl)­benzo­[b]­thiol‐3‐yl­carbonyl]­phenoxy}ethyl)­piperidinium chloride

The title compound, raloxifene hydro­chloride, C₂₈H₂₈NO₄S⁺·Cl^?, belongs to the benzo­thio­phene class of antiosteoporotic drugs. In the molecular cation, the 2‐phenol ring sustains a dihedral angle of 45.3 (1)° relative to the benzo­[b]­thio­phene system. The benzo­[b]­thio­phene and phenyl ring planes are twisted with respect to the carbonyl plane, with the smallest twist component occurring between the phenyl and carbonyl planes. The N atom bears the positive charge in the molecular cation and the piperidine ring adopts an almost perfect chair conformation. The Cl^? anion is involved in the formation of N—H?Cl and O—H?Cl intermolecular hydrogen bonds, which lead to the formation of a layer of molecular cations.     

3‐[4‐(4‐Fluoro­phenyl)­piperazin‐1‐yl­methyl]‐5‐methyl‐1,3‐benzoxazol‐2(3H)‐one and 3‐[4‐(2‐fluoro­phenyl)­piperazin‐1‐yl­methyl]‐5‐methyl‐1,3‐benzoxazol‐2(3H)‐one

The title compounds, both C₁₉H₂₀FN₃O₂, contain essentially planar benzoxazolinone ring systems, within which the C—N bond distances and angles do not differ significantly between the two compounds. In both cases, the piperazine ring adopts an almost perfect chair conformation and the benzoxazo­l­inone ring system lies nearly perpendicular to it. The structures contain intermolecular C—H⋯O contacts, and the interactions between the benzoxazolinone and fluoro­phenyl­piperazine portions of the mol­ecules are segregated.     

Ethyl N‐[2‐(hydroxy­acetyl)­phenyl]­carbamate,ethyl N‐[2‐(hydroxy­acetyl)‐4‐iodo­phenyl]­carbamate and ethyl N‐[2‐(hydroxy­acetyl)‐4‐methyl­phenyl]­carbamate

In ethyl N‐[2‐(hydroxy­acetyl)phenyl]carbamate, C₁₁H₁₃NO₄, all of the non‐H atoms lie on a mirror plane in the space group Pnma; the mol­ecules are linked into simple chains by a single C—H⋯O hydrogen bond. The mol­ecules of ethyl N‐[2‐(hydroxy­acetyl)‐4‐iodo­phenyl]carbamate, C₁₁H₁₂INO₄, are linked into sheets by a combination of O—H⋯I and C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds and a dipolar I⋯O contact. Ethyl N‐­[2‐(hydroxy­acetyl)‐4‐methyl­phenyl]carbamate, C₁₂H₁₅NO₄, crystallizes with Z′ = 2 in the space group P; pairs of mol­ecules are weakly linked by an O—H⋯O hydrogen bond and these aggregates are linked into chains by two independent aromatic π–π stacking inter­actions.     

(E)‐2‐[2‐(1‐Naphthyl)­vinyl]‐3‐tosyl‐2,3‐di­hydro‐1,3‐benzo­thia­zole

The title compound, C₂₆H₂₁NO₂S₂, which consists of a benzo­thia­zole skeleton with α‐naphthyl­vinyl and tosyl groups at positions 2 and 3, respectively, was prepared by palladium–copper‐catalyzed heteroannulation. The E configuration of the mol­ecule about the vinyl C=C bond is established by the benzothiazole–naphthyl C—C—C—C torsion angle of 177.5 (4)°. The five‐membered heterocyclic ring adopts an envelope conformation with the Csp³ atom 0.380 (6) Å from the C₂NS plane. The two S—C [1.751 (4) and 1.838 (4) Å] and two N—C [1.426 (5) and 1.482 (5) Å] bond lengths in the thia­zole ring differ significantly.     

1‐Methyl‐1‐phenyl‐3‐[1‐hydroxy­imino‐2‐(succinimido)­ethyl]­cyclo­butane

In the title compound, C₁₇H₂₀N₂O₃, the cyclo­butane ring is puckered, with a dihedral angle of 19.11 (15)°. The 1‐phenyl and 3‐[1‐hydroxy­imino‐2‐(succinimido)­ethyl] groups are in cis positions. The mol­ecules are linked by O—H⋯O and C—H⋯π(benzene) interactions, forming a two‐dimensional network.     

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.     

Bis­[2‐(di­phenyl­phosphinoyl)­benzene] di­sulfide

The title compound, [2‐Ph₂P(O)C₆H₄S]₂ or C₃₆H₂₈O₂P₂S₂, obtained by electrochemical oxidation of 2‐(di­phenyl­phosphino)­benzene­thiol, has twofold crystallographic symmetry. Principal dimensions include S—S 2.0212 (15) Å, S—C 1.786 (3) Å and C—S—S—C 81.34 (14)°.     

1‐[2‐(4‐Nitro­phenoxy)­acetyl]­pyrroli­din‐2‐one: an antiamnesic agent

The title compound, C₁₂H₁₂N₂O₅, is a potential antiamnesic agent. The pyrrolidinone ring has an envelope conformation, and the central moiety is almost coplanar with the planes of the phenyl and pyrrolidinone rings. In the crystal structure, weak intermolecular C—H...O interactions link the mol­ecules into a complex network that can be described by (X) rings (X = 16, 20 and 26) and a C(12) chain.     

Tris­[2‐(benzoyl­amino)­ethyl]­amine

Tris­[2‐(benzoyl­amino)­ethyl]­amine [alternatively, N,N′,N′′‐(nitrilo­tri­ethyl)­tri­benz­amide], C₂₇H₃₀N₄O₃, adopts a folded structure, forming a symmetrical cavity with an average depth of 7.3 Å and width ranging from 4.1–4.4 Å. The folded structure is a result of one intramolecular N—H?O hydrogen bond. A linear chain motif along the c axis best describes the extended intermolecular N—H?O hydrogen bonding.     

2,4,6‐Tris­[2‐(tri­methyl­silyl)­ethynyl]‐1,3,5‐triazene: a novel precursor to C–N two‐dimensional structures

The title structure, C₁₈H₂₇N₃Si₃, consists of separate mol­ecules arranged in sheets parallel to the ab plane. In each mol­ecule, the central (CN)₃ ring, the ethynyl units, and the Si atoms lie in the same plane. Typical C—C and C—N bond distances are 1.197 (5) and 1.42 (4) Å, respectively. The angles inside the (CN)₃ ring range from 114 (3) to 125 (3)° and the acetyl­enic branches are nearly linear.     

The fused heterocycle 2‐benzyl‐3‐methyl‐1‐phenyl‐4‐phenyl­sulfonyl‐2H,4H‐pyrrolo­[3,4‐b]­indole

Crystal structure determination of the title mol­ecule, C₃₀H₂₄N₂O₂S, reveals that the pyrrole ring in this fused heterocycle, although presumably strained and reactive in cyclo­addition reactions, does not differ appreciably from N‐methyl­pyrrole except for a shorter C—C single bond [1.409 (4) Å] in the pyrrole ring.     

2‐[6‐(3‐Chloro­phenyl)‐2,4‐dioxoperhydro­pyrimidin‐3‐yl]­ethyl morpholine‐4‐carbodi­thioate

In the title compound, C₁₇H₂₀ClN₃O₃S₂, the hexa­hydro­pyrimidine ring is puckered, the total puckering amplitude Q_T being 0.41 (1) Å. The morpholine ring displays orientational disorder. Molecules are linked in the crystal via N—H⋯O and C—H⋯O interactions to form infinite chains.     

2‐Hydro­xy‐3‐(4,5,6,7‐tetra­hydro‐1H‐imidazo­[4,5‐c]­pyridin‐5‐ium‐4‐yl)­benzoate monohydrate

The title mol­ecule, C₁₃H₁₃N₃O₃·H₂O, is in the form of a mono­hydrated zwitterion. The tetra­hydro­pyridinium ring adopts an envelope conformation and is nearly coplanar with the plane of the imidazoline ring. The water solvate mol­ecule plays an important role as a bridge between zwitterions, forming molecular chains running along the c direction, which are interconnected by N—H?O hydrogen bonds into molecular ribbons. The crystal packing is further stabilized by another N—H?O and one O—H?N hydrogen bond, which interconnect the molecular ribbons.     

Ethyl β‐{2‐[4‐(dimethylamino)phenyliminomethyl]‐1‐(phenylsulfonyl)indol‐3‐yl}acrylate

The title compound, C₂₈H₂₇N₃O₄S, crystallizes in the centrosymmetric space group P2₁/n, with one mol­ecule in the asymmetric unit. In the indole ring, the dihedral angle between the fused rings is 3.6 (1)°. The phenyl ring of the sulfonyl substituent makes a dihedral angle of 79.2 (1)° with the best plane of the indole moiety. The phenyl ring of the di­methyl­amino­phenyl group is orthogonal to the phenyl ring of the phenyl­sulfonyl group. The dihedral angle formed by the weighted least‐squares planes through the pyrrole ring and the phenyl ring of the di­methyl­amino­phenyl group is 7.8 (1)°. The molecular structure is stabilized by C—H?O and C—H?N interactions.     

2′‐(4‐Fluoro­phenyl)‐[1,2,3]­triazolo[4′,5′:16,17]­androst‐5‐en‐3β‐ol methanol hemisolvate

The asymmetric unit of the title compound, C₂₅H₃₀FN₃O·0.5CH₃OH, contains four symmetry‐independent steroid and two methanol mol­ecules. The conformations of the independent steroid mol­ecules are very similar. Intermolecular O—H⋯O hydrogen bonds create two independent chains, each of which links two of the independent steroid mol­ecules plus one methanol mol­ecule via a co‐operative O—H⋯O—H⋯O—H pattern. Intermolecular C—H⋯O and C—H⋯F interactions are also observed.     

Bis­[2‐(2‐hydroxy­phenoxy)­ethyl] ether methanol solvate

The title compound, 2,2′‐(3‐oxa­pentane‐1,5‐diyl­dioxy)­diphenol, crystallizes as a methanol solvate, C₁₆H₁₈O₅·CH₄O. The methanol mol­ecule, roughly perpendicular to the mean plane of the polyether molecule, is hydrogen bonded to the two polyether OH groups and to the central ether O atom. Possible C—H?π intermolecular interactions are present.     

1,4,4‐Tri­methyl‐9‐phenyl‐8‐oxa‐9‐aza­bi­cyclo­[3.2.2]­non‐6‐en‐2‐one

The structure of the adduct of eucarvone with nitro­so­benzene, C₁₆H₁₉NO₂, is reported. The [3.2.2] bicyclic system corresponds to two seven‐membered rings in boat and distorted chair conformations and a six‐membered ring that adopts a distorted boat conformation. No conjugation is observed between the phenyl group and the N—O system. The packing is directed mainly by a C?O hydrogen bond, C—H?O‐(1 ? x, ?y, z) and by intermolecular C—H?π interactions.     

Polymorphism and solvolysis of 2‐cyano‐3‐[4‐(N,N‐diethyl­amino)­phenyl]­prop‐2‐ene­thio­amide

Two new polymorph forms, (Ia) and (Ib), of the title compound, C₁₄H₁₇N₃S, and its solvate with aceto­nitrile, C₁₄H₁₇N₃S·0.25C₂H₃N, (Ic), have been investigated. Crystals of the two polymorphs were grown from different solvents, viz. ethanol and N,N‐di­methyl­form­amide, respectively. The polymorphs have different orientations of the thio­amide group relative to the CN substituent, with s‐cis and s‐trans geometry of the C=C—C=S diene fragment, respectively. Compound (Ic) contains two independent mol­ecules, A and B, with s‐cis geometry, and the solvate mol­ecule lies on a twofold axis. The core of each mol­ecule is slightly non‐planar; the dihedral angles between the conjugated C=C—CN linkage and the phenyl ring, and between this linkage and the thio­amide group are 13.4 (2) and 12.0 (2)° in (Ia), 14.0 (2) and 18.2 (2)° in (Ib), 2.3 (3) and 12.7 (4)° in molecule A of (Ic), and 23.2 (3) and 8.1 (4)° in molecule B of (Ic). As a result of strong conjugation between donor and acceptor parts, the substituted phenyl rings have noticeable quinoid character. In (Ib), there exists a very strong intramolecular steric interaction (H⋯H = 1.95 Å) between the bridging and thio­amide parts of the mol­ecule, which makes such a form less stable. In the crystal structure of (Ia), intermolecular N—H⋯N and N—H⋯S hydrogen bonds link mol­ecules into infinite tapes along the [10] direction. In (Ib), such intermolecular hydrogen bonds link mol­ecules into infinite (101) planes. In (Ic), intermolecular N—H⋯N hydrogen bonds link mol­ecules A and B into dimers, which are connected via N—H⋯S hydrogen bonds and form infinite chains along the c direction.
