Molecular Structure of Diphenylamine by Gas-Phase Electron Diffraction and Quantum Chemistry

Geometric parameters of the diphenylamine molecule were determined by gas-phase electron diffraction and quantum-chemical calculations. By gas-phase electron diffraction, the molecule has an asymmetric structure with torsion angles about N-C bonds of ?45.6(23)° and 173.4(46)°, which agrees with RHF/6-31G** calculations. Density functional theory (DFT) calculations at the B3LYP/6-31G** level of theory lead to a C ₂ molecular conformation in the ground electronic state. The principal experimental geometric parameters are as follows: bond lengths: C-N 1.417(1), C-C_av 1.403(1) Å; and bond angles: CNC 123.9(5)°, and NCC 121.5° (assumed) and 116.4°.     

31P-NMR and X-Ray Studies of the Complexes [HgX2 (1)]. (1=2, 11-bis (diphenylphosphinomethyl)benzo [c]phenanthrene,X=Cl,I)

The ³¹P{¹H}-NMR characteristics of the complexes [HgX₂( 1 )] and [HgX₂-(PPh₂Bz)₂] (X = NO₃, Cl, Br, I, SCN, CN) and the solid state structures of the complexes [HgCl₂( 1 )] and [HgI₂( 1 )] ( 1 = 2,11-bis (diphenylphosphinomethyl)benzo-[c]phenanthrene) have been determined. The ¹J(¹⁹⁹Hg, ³¹P) values increase in the order CN < I < SCN < Br < Cl < NO₃. The two molecular structures show a distorted tetrahedral geometry about mercury. Pertinent bond lengths and bond angles from the X-ray analysis are as follows: Hg? P = 2.485(7) Å and 2.509 (8) Å, Hg? Cl = 2.525 (8) Å and 2.505 (10) Å, P? Hg? P = 125.6(3)°, Cl? Hg?

Gas-phase molecular structure of 1,1,1,2-tetrabromo-2,2-dimethyldisilane: theoretical and experimental investigation of a super-halogenated disilane and computational investigation of the F, Cl and I analogues

The molecular structure of 1,1,1,2-tetrabromo-2,2-dimethyldisilane (Br₃SiSiBrMe₂) has been determined in the gas phase by electron diffraction and ab initio molecular-orbital calculations. The computational investigation was used to augment the experimental investigation using the Structure Analysis Restrained by Ab initio Calculations for Electron diffractioN (SARACEN) method. The structure was found to adopt a staggered structure with C _s symmetry by both theory and experiment. Important structural parameters (r _h1) include: rSi–Si 235.6(5) pm, rSi–C 185.4(3) pm, rSi–Br_av 220.3(1) pm, ∠Si–Si–Br(14) 106.1(4)°, ∠Si–Si–C 109.2(8)° and ?Br–Si–Si–Br 180.0°(fixed). These experimental observations are supported by theoretical predictions obtained at the MP2/6-311+G* level. An analogous theoretical investigation was also performed for the series X₃SiSiXMe₂ (X = F, Cl and I) and structural trends identified. The Si–X bond was observed to lengthen as a function of the halogen substituent, with corresponding changes to the Si–Si–X bond angles in the SiX₃ groups. The Si–Si–X bond angle in the SiXMe₂ groups displayed rather different behaviour, and was relatively stable to substitution until X = I. The flexible nature of bond angles about silicon atoms was observed, even in this relatively sterically unhindered system.     

Synthesis and characterization of N-heterocyclic carbene palladium complex and its application on direct arylation of benzoxazoles and benzothiazoles with aryl bromides

A mixed-halogen bis(1-(4-tert-butylbenzyl)-3-(2, 4, 6-trimethylbenzyl)-1H-benzo[d]imidazol-2-ylidene) palladium(II) complex, trans-[Pd(Cl_0.7Br_0.3)₂(C₂₈H₃₂N₂)₂], has been synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis, ¹H-NMR, ¹³C-NMR, and IR spectroscopy, and single crystal X-ray diffraction. The palladium in the mononuclear complex is four-coordinate in a square-planar configuration with two carbenes of two benzo[d]imidazole rings and two halides. The two halides are disordered between Br and Cl, with the Cl: Br ratio approximately 0.7 : 0.3. The angles C1–Pd1–Br1, 88.63(11)° and C1ⁱ–Pd1–Br1ⁱ, 91.37(11)° (i: 1?x, 1?y, 1?z) in the coordination sphere are very close to the ideal value of 90°. The Pd–X distance is slightly longer than other carbene derivative Pd–Cl single bond distances and slightly shorter than Pd–Br single bond distances. These results agree with the Cl/Br disorder at the halogen position. The palladium–carbene complex was tested as a catalyst in the direct arylation reaction of benzoxazoles and benzothiazoles with aryl bromides.

Preparation, Crystal Structures, Vibrational Spectra, and Normal Coordinate Analysis of trans-(PNP)[TcCl₄(Py)₂] and trans-(PNP)[TcBr₄(Py)₂] By reaction of (PNP)₂[TcX₆] with pyridine in the presence of [BH₄]^? (PNP)[TcX₄(Py)₂], X = Cl, Br, are formed. X-ray structure determinations on single crystals of these isotypic Tc^III complexes (monoclinic, space group P2₁/n, Z = 2, for X = Cl: a = 13.676(4), b = 9.102(3), c = 17.144(2) Å, β = 91.159(1)°; for X = Br: a = 13.972(2), b = 9.146(3), c = 17.285(4) Å, β = 90.789(2)°) result in the averaged bond distances Tc? Cl: 2.386, Tc? Br: 2.519, Tc? N: 2.132(3) (X = Cl) and 2.143(4) Å (X = Br). The two pyridine rings are coplanar and vertical to the X? Tc? X-axes, forming angles of 42.28° (X = Cl) and 43.11° (X = Br). Using the molecular parameters of the X-ray structure determination and assuming D_2h point symmetry, the IR and Raman spectra are assigned by normal coordinate analysis based on a modified valence force field. Good agreement between observed and calculated frequencies is obtained with the valence force constants f_d(TcCl) = 1.45, f_d(TcBr) = 1.035, f_d(TcN) = 1.37 (X = Cl) and 1.45 mdyn/ Å (X = Br), respectively.     

THE CRYSTAL AND MOLECULAR STRUCTURE OF THE POTENTIAL ANTIBACTERIAL AGENT 2-PYRIDYL-PHENYL SULPHONE

Abstract

Crystals of 2-pyridyl-phenyl sulphone are monoclinic, space group P2₁/c, with eight molecules in the unit cell of dimensions a = 11.781, b = 5.903, c = 29.748 Å and B = 94.13°. The dihedral angles between the best planes of the two aromatic rings are significantly different in two crystallographically independent molecules (88.4° and 71.9° for molecule A and molecule B, respectively), as well as those between the CSC plane and the pyridine ring (59.4° and 67.4°) and between the CSC plane and the phenyl ring (51.7° and 81.8°). The average bond distances of interest include C?S 1.77(1) and S?O 1.44(1) Å; among the bond angles there are CSO = 108.1(7), CSC = 105.0(6) and OSO = 118.7(6)°. The packing of the molecule in the crystal is determined by the van der Waals interactions and by two intermolecular H?O contacts of 2.43 and 2.49 Å. The observed conformation in the solid state agrees well with results of previous investigations, in the solution state, by means of dipole moment method and theoretical M.O. calculations, for the analogous di-2-pyridyl sulphone.

Due to high steric load the bond angles at the tertiary P atoms with δ = 115.7° are significantly larger than those at the primary P atoms with δ = 108.6°.     

Bildung siliciumorganischer Verbindungen. 96. Bildung und Struktur von P-Yliden des 1,3,5-Trisilacyclohexans (Einfluß der Substituenten)

Formation of Organosilicon Compounds. 96. Preparation and Structure of P-Ylides of the 1,3,5-Trisilahexanes (Influence of the Substituents) The influence of the substituents at the silicon atoms on formation and structure of ylides of 1,3,5-trisilacyclohexanesis investigated. The reactions of 1 , 2 , 3 with Me₃Si? PMe₂ lead via cleavage of the Si? P bond and subsequent rearrangement to the ylides 4 , 5 and 6 . The x-ray structure determination reveals, that the atoms of the ylid part of 4 are in a plane with the shortened bond distances d(C? P) = 168.6 pm and d(Si? C) = 180.1 pm, whereas the other endocyclic Si? C distances remain nearly unaffected by the ylid formation. Only the endocyclic bond angles C? Si? C of the Si atoms of the ylid are enlarged (116°). In the molecule 6 d(C? P) = 164.6 pm is much shorter, but d(P? Br) = 236.6 pm is enlarged. This enlargement is coupled with a deviation of 17 pm for the ylidic C atom from the ylid plane. Distances and angles are normal in the methylated trisilnhexane. The ring in 6 has boat conformation, in 4 a flat chair conformation.

Mn of these compounds have also been estimated in the case of X = Cl: 95.80(7)° and 126.25(4)° and for X?Br: 98.44(8)° and 125.88(9)°. The individual molecules of the X₂Sn[Mn(CO)₅]₂ solids are surrounded by ligands showing distorted tetrahedral configuration at the Sn atom and distorted octahedral configuration at the Mn atom.     

A Crystallographic Charge Density Study of the Partial Covalent Nature of Strong N⋅⋅⋅Br Halogen Bonds

The covalent nature of strong N?Br???N halogen bonds in a cocrystal ( 2 ) of N‐bromosuccinimide ( NBS ) with 3,5‐dimethylpyridine ( lut ) was determined from X‐ray charge density studies and compared to a weak N?Br???O halogen bond in pure crystalline NBS ( 1 ) and a covalent bond in bis(3‐methylpyridine)bromonium cation (in its perchlorate salt ( 3 ). In 2 , the donor N?Br bond is elongated by 0.0954 Å, while the Br???acceptor distance of 2.3194(4) is 1.08 Å shorter than the sum of the van der Waals radii. A maximum electron density of 0.38 e Å^?3 along the Br???N halogen bond indicates a considerable covalent contribution to the total interaction. This value is intermediate to 0.067 e Å^?3 for the Br???O contact in 1 , and approximately 0.7 e Å^?3 in both N?Br bonds of the bromonium cation in 3 . A calculation of the natural bond order charges of the contact atoms, and the σ*(N1?Br) population of NBS as a function of distance between NBS and lut , have shown that charge transfer becomes significant at a Br???N distance below about 3 Å.

Methods for the preparation of cis - 3,5 - dibromo - 4 - oxo - 2,2,6,6 - tetramethylpiperidin -1 - yloxy (2b) and its use as a convenient, selective spin-labelling reagent for amino functions, are described. The crystal and molecular structures of 2b and the bis-nitroxide 4 - [(2',2',5',5' - tetramethylpyrrolin -1 - yloxy) - 3' - carbonyloxy] - 2, 2,6,6 - tetramethyl - 3,5 - dibromo - 3,4 - dehydropiperidin - 1 - yloxy (3) [obtained on treatment of 2b with triethylamine] have been determined by conventional heavy-atom techniques. In 2b the individual molecules have mirror symmetry with the bromine atoms equatorial. The N-O bond length is 1.278(5) Å, CN?C is 125.1(3)° and the N-O bond makes an angle of 24.2° with the CN?C plane. In 3 there are two different nitroxide groups. The pyrrolinyloxy ring is virtually planar with a N-O bond length of 1.252(13) Å and CN?C of 113.1(10)°. The 6 -membered ring exists in a sofa conformation with a pseudoaxial Br atom. Its nitroxide group is tetrahedrally distorted. The N-O bond length is 1.268(15) Å, CN?C is 121.7(10)° and the N-O bond makes an angle of 16.0° with the CN?C plane. The packing of 3 is dictated by a short Br... .O secondary bond of 3.09(1) Å, 0.28 Å less than the sum of the van der Waal's radii resulting in dimeric units related by a centre of symmetry.

The molecular structure of diphenylchlorophosphine was determined by gas-phase electron diffraction in combination with quantum-chemical calculations. The molecule has the C ₁ symmetry with the following torsion angles around the P-C bonds: 140.2(3.1)° (C²P¹C⁸C⁹) and ?95.8(3.1)° (C⁸P¹C²C³).

Least-squares refinement of molecular structure of polyoxymethylene

Least-squares refinement of the molecular structure of polyoxymethylene was carried out by using intensity data measured with an automatic four-circle diffractometer. The discrepancy factor was improved to 4.1% by using the anisotropic temperature factor. Physically significant values were obtained for the bond length, bond angles, and internal rotation angle: C? O = 1.429 ± 0.008 Å, ∠COC = 112.9 ± 0.6°, ∠OCO = 110.4 ± 0.8°, and τ(C? O) = 77.0 ± 0.3°. Samples for x-ray diffraction measurements were prepared by solid state polymerization of a tetroxocane single crystal.     

Molecular conformation of bilirubin from semiempirical molecular orbital calculations

Semiempirical methods were utilized in the computation of a fully optimized structure of bilirubin. Bond lengths and bond angles obtained using either AM1 or PM3 calculations showed excellent agreement with those obtained by X-ray diffraction. This indicated that molecular orbital methods satisfactory reproduced the complex conjugation found in bilirubin. Dihedral angles of the crucial “hinge” and the dihedral angles of the propionic acid side chains agreed well with those found by X-ray diffraction. Calculated hydrogen- bond parameters (distance and angles) showed substantial differences from experimental values, probably due to inherent weakness in the parameterization of the molecular orbital techniques. Conformational studies were carried out using AM1 by rotating the C9? C10 bond in 5° increments showed that the most stable structure exhibited a minimum at about 125° and exhibited a structure similar to those postulated from X-ray and NMR experiments. The hydrogen bonds showed remarkable tenacity during rotation of the C9? C10 bond and resisted breaking until the molecule was under extreme strain. © 1992 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
