X-ray Structure of 1- (3' -Phenyl-4' -morpholinyl-2' 5' - dithiole-1' - ylidene)-3, 4-biscarboethoxy-2-thionaphthalene

The title compound (C28H27NO5S3, Mr= 553. 69) was prepared bythe reaction of a-thiobenzoylthioformmorholine with diethyl acetylene dicarboxylate.The crystal is monoclinic, space group P21/n with a= 9. 160(3), b= 17. 726(3), c=16. 602(3) A ; β= 100. 375(13)°; V=2651. 4(10) A3, Z=4, Dc= 1. 387 g/cm3, μ(MoKa) =0. 319 mm-1, F(000) =1160, R=0. 0428, wR(F2) =0. 0910 for 2438 observed reflections (I>2(I)). X-ray analysis reveals that interatomic distances for C(5)-C(6), C(13)-C(14) and C(21)-C(22) are 1. 331(4), 1. 351(4), 1. 344(4)A respectively, which show that they are normal C=C double bonds. All S-C bondlengths are similar to typical S-C single bonds (1. 75 - 1. 78 A ). The five-membered ring A (C(5) -C(6) -S(2)-C(13) -S(1) ) (Fig. 1) and six-membered ringB (C(14) -C(15) -C(20) -C(21)-C(22)-S(3) ) (Fig. 1) adopt the flat twist conformation. Furthermore, the morpholine ring adopts chair conformtion.
