Molecular motions in chloramphenicol studied by35Cl nuclear quadrupole and1H nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy

The³⁵Cl nuclear quadrupole resonance (NQR) frequency (v_Q), nuclear quadrupole spinlattice relaxation time (T_1Q),¹H nuclear magnetic resonance second moment (M₂) and nuclear magnetic spin-lattice relaxation timeT ₁) were measured for polycrystalline chloramphenicol (drug) as a function of temperature. Hindered rotation of the CHC1₂ group and the phenyl ring was detected, the relevant activation energies were determined. The rotations are discussed in detail.     

4‐Chloro­aceto­phenone [1‐(4‐methoxyphenyl)­ethyl­idene]­hydra­zone

The crystal structure of the title mixed azine, C₁₇H₁₇ClN₂O, contains four independent mol­ecules, A–D, and mol­ecule B is disordered. All four mol­ecules have an N—N gauche conformation, with C—N—N—C torsion angles of 136.5 (4), 137.0 (4), ?134.7 (4) and ?134.7 (4)°, respectively. The phenyl rings are also somewhat twisted with respect to the plane defined by C_ipso and the imine bond. On average, the combined effect of these twists results in an angle of 64.7° between the best planes of the two phenyl rings. Arene–arene double T‐contacts are the dominant intermolecular inter­action. The methoxy‐substituted phenyl ring of one azine mol­ecule interacts to form a T‐contact with the methoxy‐substituted phenyl ring of an adjacent mol­ecule and, similarly, two chloro‐substituted phenyl rings of neighboring mol­ecules interact to form another T‐contact. The only exception is for mol­ecule B, for which the disorder leads to the formation of T‐­contacts between methoxy‐ and chloro‐substituted phenyl rings. The prevailing structural motif of T‐contact formation between like‐substituted arene rings results in a highly dipole‐parallel‐aligned crystal structure.     

Enantiopure β3-neopentylglycine: synthesis and resolution

A procedure has been developed for the large scale synthesis of enantiopure β³-neopentylglycine and its Cbz-protected derivative. The synthetic route developed in our laboratory features Cbz-protection of the racemic β-amino acid followed by resolution with l-norephedrine and provides the enantiomerically pure Cbz-β-neopentylglycine in good yield and excellent enantiopurity. No toxic or dangerous chemicals are used, allowing the scale-up of this procedure without major safety concerns.
