Crystal and molecular structures of 1-(2-ethyloxycarbonylo propan-2-ylamino)-3-(1-napthyloxy) propan-2-ol-hydrochloride (1) (C19H26NO4Cl) and 1-(2-isopropyloxycarbonylo-propan-2-ylamino)-3-(1-napthyloxy) propan-2-ol hydrochloride (2) (C20H28N04Cl)

The crystal structures of two new-adrenergic antagonists, derivatives of propranolol, are shown in this paper. The space groups and unit-cell parameters are: compound1 (C₁₉H₂₆NO₄Cl): triclinic, space groupP1,a=6.420(1),b=10.161(1),c=15.823(1) Å,=82.47(1),=84.16(1), =77.55(1)°; compound 2 (C₂₀H₂₈NO₄Cl): monoclinic, space groupP2₁/c,a=6.460(1),b=33.285(2),c=10.120(1) Å,=104.83(1)°. The structures were solved by direct methods and refined with full-matrix least-squares techniques toR indices of 0.055 and 0.048, respectively. The –CH(OH)-CH₂-NH-sections of the side chains show the conformation approximate togauche.
