Why Do Chemically Similar Pharmaceutical Molecules Crystallize in Different Structures: A Case of Droperidol and Benperidol

2016

A detailed study of molecular conformation and intermolecular interactions in the experimental crystal structures and general trends observed in the Cambridge Structural Database as well as theoretical calculations were performed to identify the reason for the formation of different crystal structures of two chemically very similar pharmaceutical molecules benperidol and droperidol. The most important difference between both molecules was the weak intermolecular interactions formed by the central ring which therefore was responsible for the formation of different crystal structures. Cross-seeding experiments were performed to check the possibility for the formation of mutually isostructural…

The Nature of Transannular Interactions in E4N4 and E82+ (E = S, Se)

2015

The electronic structures of tetrachalcogen tetranitrides, E4N4, and octachalcogen dications, E8(2+), and the nature of their intramolecular E···E interactions (E = S, Se) was studied with high-level theoretical methods. The results reveal that the singlet ground states of both systems have a surprisingly large correlation contribution which functions to weaken and therefore lengthen the cross-ring E-E bond. The observed correlation effects are primarily static in E4N4, whereas in E8(2+) the dynamic part largely governs the total correlation contribution. The presented description of bonding is the first that gives an all-inclusive picture of the origin of cross-ring interactions in E4N4 an…

DFT study of polarizabilities and dipole moments of water clusters

2005

Density functional theory (DFT) calculations with different exchange- correlation functionals, Becke's three-parameter exchange functional and the gradient- corrected functional of Lee, Yang, and Paar (B3LYP) and Becke's three-parameter functional with Perdew-Wang correlational functional (B3PW91), are performed to study the dielectric properties of small and medium-sized water clusters. For these H- bonded systems, we optimize the geometries and compute the dipole moments and polarizabilities using a supermolecule approach. The corresponding properties of the individual water molecules in the clusters are extracted from the molecular properties using the Hirshfeld expansion of the electron…

Structural, magnetic and calorimetric studies of a crystalline phase of the spin crossover compound [Fe(tzpy)2(NCSe)2]

2013

The compound [Fe(tzpy)2(NCSe)2] (tzpy = 3-(2-pyridyl)-[1,2,3]triazolo[1,5-a]pyridine)) has been synthesized and its crystal structure, magnetic behavior and calorimetric properties investigated. Samples constituted of single crystals of [Fe(tzpy)2(NCSe) 2] display a relatively cooperative spin-state change centered at T1/2 ¿ 251.7 K with a hysteresis loop 3.5 K wide. The average enthalpy (¿H) and entropy (¿S) changes upon the spin crossover behavior (SCO) obtained from DSC measurements are 11.1 ± 0.4 kJ mol -1 and 44.5 ± 3 J K-1 mol-1, respectively. The magnetic and calorimetric data have been satisfactorily simulated using the mean-field regular solution model (Slichter-Drickamer) and the …

Low-temperature methyl group dynamics of hexamethylbenzene in crystalline and glassy matrices as studied by 2H NMR

1991

Abstract 2 H NMR spectra of hexamethylbenzene (HMB) in protonated crystalline and amorphous matrices at low temperatures are presented. All spectra reveal lineshape changes which can be attributed to methyl group tunnelling. Compared to neat HMB, a drastic increase of the tunnelling frequency is found for all systems. This indicates that the hindering potential originates predominantly from intermolecular forces. We studied the temperature dependence of these spectra and the spin-lattice relaxation in order to exclude a distribution of motional correlation times describing a thermally activated process. In addition, we find a distortion of the methyl tetrahedron.

Designing Solid Solutions of Enantiomers: Lack of Enantioselectivity of Chiral Naphthalimide Derivatives in the Solid State

2017

The enantiomers of a previously reported naphthalimide derivative are shown in this study to form a solid solution; furthermore, on the basis of the knowledge of solid solution structural aspects other naphthalimide derivatives have been synthesized and shown to lack the enantioselectivity in the solid state. The structural origin of solid solution formation is the same as observed in most of the cases in the literaturequasi-centrosymmetric structures form at nonracemic compositions where the most abundant enantiomer adjusts its conformation to mimic the absent one. Such solid solutions belong to the type showing some enantioselectivity. An extended single crystal X-ray diffraction study o…
