Three 4,7‐diaryl‐2‐ethylsulfanylpyrazolo[1,5‐a][1,3,5]triazines

The molecular dimensions of 2‐ethylsulfanyl‐7‐(4‐methylphenyl)‐4‐phenylpyrazolo[1,5‐a][1,3,5]triazine, C₂₀H₁₈N₄S, (I), 7‐(4‐chlorophenyl)‐2‐ethylsulfanyl‐4‐phenylpyrazolo[1,5‐a][1,3,5]triazine, C₁₉H₁₅ClN₄S, (II), and 4,7‐bis(4‐chlorophenyl)‐2‐(ethylsulfanyl)pyrazolo[1,5‐a][1,3,5]triazine, C₁₉H₁₄Cl₂N₄S, (III), show evidence for some aromatic delocalization in the pyrazole rings. The conformations adopted by the ethylsulfanyl substituents are different in all three compounds. There are no hydrogen bonds in any of the crystal structures, but pairs of molecules in (II) and (III) are linked into centrosymmetric dimers by π‐stacking interactions.     

Hydrogen‐bonded sheet structures in neutral,anionic and hydrated 6‐amino‐2‐(morpholin‐4‐yl)‐5‐nitrosopyrimidines

In each of 6‐amino‐3‐methyl‐2‐(morpholin‐4‐yl)‐5‐nitrosopyrimidin‐4(3H)‐one, C₉H₁₃N₅O₃, (I), morpholin‐4‐ium 4‐amino‐2‐(morpholin‐4‐yl)‐5‐nitroso‐6‐oxo‐1,6‐dihydropyrimidin‐1‐ide, C₄H₁₀NO⁺·C₈H₁₀N₅O₃⁻, (II), and 6‐amino‐2‐(morpholin‐4‐yl)‐5‐nitrosopyrimidin‐4(3H)‐one hemihydrate, C₈H₁₁N₅O₃·0.5H₂O, (III), the bond distances within the pyrimidine components are consistent with significant electronic polarization, which is most marked in (II) and least marked in (I). Despite the high level of substitution, the pyrimidine rings are all effectively planar, and in each of the pyrimidine components, there are intramolecular N—H...O hydrogen bonds. In each compound, the organic components are linked by multiple N—H...O hydrogen bonds to form sheets of widely differing construction, and in compound (III) adjacent sheets are linked by the water molecules, so forming a three‐dimensional hydrogen‐bonded framework. This study also contains the first direct geometric comparison between the electronic polarization in a neutral aminonitrosopyrimidine and that in its ring‐deprotonated conjugate anion in a metal‐free environment.     

Dimethyl 6‐[1,2‐bis(methoxycarbonyl)‐2‐(triphenyl‐λ5‐phosphanylidene)ethylideneamino]‐2‐methylsulfanyl‐3,4‐pyridinedicarboxylate forms a chain of hydrogen‐bonded rings

In the title compound, C₃₄H₃₁N₂O₈PS, the intramolecular distances provide evidence for polarization of the molecular–electronic structure. The molecules are linked into complex chains of rings by three independent C—H...O hydrogen bonds. The significance of this study lies in its finding that two of the four carbonyl O atoms play no role in the hydrogen bonding, despite the large excess of potential hydrogen‐bond donors present.     

Hexamethylenediammonium bis(chloroacetate): a three‐dimensional hydrogen‐bonded framework structure

In the title compound, C₆H₁₈N₂²⁺·2C₂H₂ClO₂⁻, the cation lies across an inversion centre in the P space group. The ions are linked by two two‐centre N—H...O hydrogen bonds and by one three‐centre N—H...(O)₂ hydrogen bond to form a three‐dimensional framework structure. The significance of this study lies in the analysis of the complex hydrogen‐bonded structure and in the comparison of this structure with those of other simple hexamethylenediammonium salts.     

Three aryl‐substituted tetrahydro‐1,4‐epoxy‐1‐benzazepines: hydrogen‐bonded structures in two or three dimensions

In (2SR,4RS)‐7‐chloro‐2‐exo‐(4‐chlorophenyl)‐2,3,4,5‐tetrahydro‐1H‐1,4‐epoxy‐1‐benzazepine, C₁₆H₁₃Cl₂NO, (I), the molecules are linked by a combination of C—H...O and C—H...N hydrogen bonds into a chain of edge‐fused R₃³(12) rings. The isomeric compound (2S,4R)‐7‐chloro‐2‐exo‐(2‐chlorophenyl)‐2,3,4,5‐tetrahydro‐1H‐1,4‐epoxy‐1‐benzazepine, (II), crystallizes as a single 2S,4R enantiomer and the molecules are linked into a three‐dimensional framework structure by two C—H...O hydrogen bonds and one C—H...π(arene) hydrogen bond. The molecules of (2S,4R)‐7‐chloro‐2‐exo‐(1‐naphthyl)‐2,3,4,5‐tetrahydro‐1H‐1,4‐epoxy‐1‐benzazepine, C₂₀H₁₆ClNO, (III), are also linked into a three‐dimensional framework structure, here by one C—H...O hydrogen bond and two C—H...π(arene) hydrogen bonds. The significance of this study lies in its observation of the variations in molecular configuration and conformation, and in the variation in the patterns of supramolecular aggregation, consequent upon modest changes in the peripheral substituents.     

Dynamics of the dispersion interaction in an energy transfer system

On the propagation of resonant radiation through an optically dense system, photon capture is commonly followed by one or more near-field transfers of the resulting optical excitation. The process invokes secondary changes to the local electronic environment, shifting the electromagnetic interactions between participant chromophores and producing modified intermolecular forces. From the theory it emerges that energy transfer, when it occurs between chromophores with electronically dissimilar properties, can itself generate significant changes in the intermolecular potentials. This report highlights specific effects that can be anticipated when laser light propagates across an interface between differentially absorbing components in a model energy transfer system.     

Conversion of 3‐amino‐4‐arylamino‐1H‐isochromen‐1‐ones to 1‐arylisochromeno[3,4‐d][1,2,3]triazol‐5(1H)‐ones: synthesis,spectroscopic characterization and the structures of four products and one ring‐opened derivative

An efficient synthesis of 1‐arylisochromeno[3,4‐d][1,2,3]triazol‐5(1H)‐ones, involving the diazotization of 3‐amino‐4‐arylamino‐1H‐isochromen‐1‐ones in weakly acidic solution, has been developed and the spectroscopic characterization and crystal structures of four examples are reported. The molecules of 1‐phenylisochromeno[3,4‐d][1,2,3]triazol‐5(1H)‐one, C₁₅H₉N₃O₂, (I), are linked into sheets by a combination of C—H…N and C—H…O hydrogen bonds, while the structures of 1‐(2‐methylphenyl)isochromeno[3,4‐d][1,2,3]triazol‐5(1H)‐one, C₁₆H₁₁N₃O₂, (II), and 1‐(3‐chlorophenyl)isochromeno[3,4‐d][1,2,3]triazol‐5(1H)‐one, C₁₅H₈ClN₃O₂, (III), each contain just one hydrogen bond which links the molecules into simple chains, which are further linked into sheets by π‐stacking interactions in (II) but not in (III). In the structure of 1‐(4‐chlorophenyl)isochromeno[3,4‐d][1,2,3]triazol‐5(1H)‐one, (IV), isomeric with (III), a combination of C—H…O and C—H…π(arene) hydrogen bonds links the molecules into sheets. When compound (II) was exposed to a strong acid in methanol, quantitative conversion occurred to give the ring‐opened transesterification product methyl 2‐[4‐hydroxy‐1‐(2‐methylphenyl)‐1H‐1,2,3‐triazol‐5‐yl]benzoate, C₁₇H₁₅N₃O₃, (V), where the molecules are linked by paired O—H…O hydrogen bonds to form centrosymmetric dimers.     

Methyl 4‐[(1‐acetyl‐3‐tert‐butyl‐1H‐pyrazol‐5‐yl)amino]‐3‐nitrobenzoate

In the molecule of the title compound, C₁₇H₂₀N₄O₅, there are two intramolecular N—H...O hydrogen bonds having amidic and nitro‐group O atoms as the acceptors and together forming a three‐centre N—H...(O)₂ system. These interactions appear to play an important role in controlling the relative orientation of the pyrazole and aryl rings. The bond distances provide evidence for some polarization of the electronic structure. Molecules are linked into simple chains by a single C—H...O hydrogen bond.     

Thermal study of vermiculites and mica-vermiculite interstratifications

Simultaneous DTA-TG has been carried out on a set of natural vermiculite samples. Based on their dehydration behaviour the samples can be divided in two groups: (a) those with DTA endothermic peak temperatures at 140°–150°C and 240°–270°C (pure vermiculties) and (b) those with peak temperatures at 95°–115°C (vermiculite with mica or mica-vermiculite interstratifications). The low temperature at which the endothermic effect in group (b) appears is discussed on the basis of dilution due to the inert layers of mica, differences in chemical composition, and lowering of interlamellar water bond energy.
