Crystal structure and absolute configuration of (4S,5R,6S)-4,5,6-trihydroxy-3-methylcyclohex-2-enone (gabosine H)
The absolute configuration of the title compound, determined as 4S,5R,6S on the basis of the synthetic pathway, was confirmed by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The molecule is formed by a substituted six-membered cyclohexene ring adopting an envelope conformation and substituted by carbonyl, methyl and hydroxyl groups. The supramolecular structure is mainly built by a combination of O—H⋯O and weaker C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds.
Crystal structure and absolute configuration of (3aR,3′aR,7aS,7′aS)-2,2,2′,2′-tetramethyl-3a,6,7,7a,3′a,6′,7′,7′a-octahydro-4,4′-bi[1,3-benzodioxolyl], obtained from a Pd-catalyzed homocoupling reaction
The absolute configuration,i.e.(3aR,3′aR,7aS,7′aS), of the title compound, C18H26O4, synthesizedviaa palladium-catalyzed homocoupling reaction, was determined on the basis of the synthetic pathway and was confirmed by X-ray diffraction. The homocoupled molecule is formed by two chemically identical moieties built up from two five- and six-membered fused rings. The supramolecular assembly is controlled mainly by C—H...O interactions that lead to the formation of hydrogen-bonded chains of molecules along the [001] direction, while weak dipolar interactions and van der Waals forces hold the chains together in the crystal structure.
Magneto-structural studies on heterobimetallic malonate-bridged M(II)Re(IV) complexes (M = Mn, Co, Ni and Cu).
The mononuclear Re(IV) compound of formula (PPh(4))(2)[ReBr(4)(mal)] (1) was used as a ligand to obtain the heterobimetallic species [ReBr(4)(μ-mal)Co(dmphen)(2)]· MeCN (2), [ReBr(4)(μ-mal)Ni(dmphen)(2)] (3), [ReBr(4)(μ-mal)Mn(dmphen)(2)] (4a), [ReBr(4)(μ-mal)Mn(dmphen)(H(2)O)(2)]·dmphen·MeCN·H(2)O (4b), [ReBr(4)(μ-mal)Cu(phen)(2)]·1/4H(2)O (5) and [ReBr(4)(μ-mal)Cu(bipy)(2)] (6) (mal = malonate dianion, dmphen = 2,9-dimethyl-1,10-phenanthroline, phen = 1,10-phenanthroline and bipy = 2,2'-bipyridine). The structures of 2 and 5 (single-crystal X-ray diffraction) are made up of neutral [ReBr(4)(μ-mal)M(AA)] dinuclear units [AA = dmphen with M = Co (2) and AA = phen with M = Cu (5)] where the …
Synthesis, crystal structure and magnetic properties of novel heterobimetallic malonate-bridged MIIReIV complexes (M = Mn, Fe, Co and Ni).
Five novel ReIV-MII bimetallic complexes of formula [ReCl4(mu-mal)M(dmphen)2].MeCN [M = Co (1), Fe (2) and Ni (3)], [ReCl4(mu-mal)Ni(dmphen)(MeCN)2(H2O)].(MeCN)0.5(H2O)0.5 (4), and [ReCl4(mu-mal)Mn(dmphen)(H2O)2].dmphen.MeCN.H2O (5) (mal = malonate dianion, dmphen = 2,9-dimethyl-1,10-phenanthroline) have been synthesized, and the structures of 1, 2, 4, and 5 determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The structures of 1 and 2 consist of neutral [ReCl4(mu-mal)M(dmphen)2] dinuclear units where the metal ions are linked through a malonate ligand which adopts simultaneously the bidentate (at ReIV) and monodentate (at MII) coordination modes. The bridging carboxylate-malonate group in them …
