Comparative NMR and IR spectral, X-ray structural and theoretical studies of eight 6-arylidenedibenzo[b,e]thiepin-11-one-5,5-dioxides

2007

Abstract Eight 6-arylidenedibenzo[b,e]thiepin-11-one-5,5-dioxides are characterized by NMR and IR spectroscopy. Single crystal X-ray structures for three congeners are reported. In addition, the transmission of substituent effects in conjugated double bond system of 6-arylidenedibenzo[b,e]thiepin-11-one-5,5-dioxide framework has been evaluated by calculating the correlations between selected 13C NMR chemical shifts and IR stretching wave numbers and Hammett constants of the substituents locating in the phenyl ring of the arylidene moiety.

Microphase separation upon crystallization of small amphiphilic molecules: ‘low’ temperature form II of sodium benzoate (E 211)

2016

A so far unknown low temperature polymorph (form II crystallized at 350 °C) of the common food preservative sodium benzoate (NaBz; E 211) could be crystallized by annealing (7 days) of the poorly crystalline technical material. Its crystal structure was solved by indexing a tiny single crystal by electron diffraction followed by structure solution and refinement applying powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD). The new polymorph shows many structural similarities to form I (crystallized at 420 °C). Both form I and II are the result of a microphase separation: the structures consist of pseudo-hexagonal packings of rod-shaped micelles where the core consists of sodium cations being coordinated by the…

Abstract Three diorganotin(IV) complexes of the type, [R 2 Sn(L a H)(L b H)] (R =  n Bu or Me and, L a H and L b H are two different 5-[( E )-2-(aryl)-1-diazenyl]-2-hydroxybenzoate residues; a: aryl = 4′-Cl-(held constant) and b: aryl = 4′-Me or 4′-Br) have been prepared either by reacting n Bu 2 SnO, L a HH′ and L b HH′ (1:1:1) in anhydrous toluene or by reacting Me 2 SnCl 2 , L a HNa and L b HNa (1:1:1) in anhydrous methanol. The products were characterized by microanalysis, IR, NMR ( 1 H, 13 C, 119 Sn) and 119m Sn Mossbauer spectroscopy. A full characterization of the structures of the complexes [ n Bu 2 Sn(L a H)(L b H)] ( 1 and 2 ) and [Me 2 Sn(L a H)(L b H)] ( 3 ) in the solid state w…

2005

Abstract The 1H and 13C NMR chemical shifts for six toxaphene congeners: 2-exo,3-endo,6-exo,8,9,10-hexachloro- (1), 2-exo,3-endo,5-exo,9,9,10,10-heptachloro- (2), 2-exo,3-endo,6-exo,8,9,10,10-heptachloro- (3), 2-exo,3-endo,5-exo,6-endo,8,9,10-heptachloro- (4), 2-exo,3-endo,5-exo,6-endo,8,9,9,10-octachlorobornane (5) and 2,5-endo,6-exo,8,9,9,10,10-octachloro-2-bornene (6) are reported. Their chemical shift assignments have been obtained by means of Pulsed Field Gradient (PFG) Double Quantum Filtered (DQF) 1H,1H correlation spectroscopy (COSY), PFG 1H,13C Heteronuclear Multiple Quantum Coherence (HMQC) and PFG 1H,13C Heteronuclear Multiple Bond Correlation (HMBC) experiments. A single crystal…

Comparison of epimeric methyl lithocholate and methyl iso-lithocholate molecules: single crystal X-ray structure of methyl lithocholate, ab initio HF…

2003

Abstract 13 C NMR chemical shifts have been measured and assigned for epimeric methyl 3α/β-hydroxy-5β-cholan-24-oates (methyl lithocholate [3α-OH epimer] and methyl iso-lithocholate [3β-OH epimer]). Their molecular dynamics simulations suggest that for both epimers there exists two predominant gas phase conformations, which have been further forwarded for ab initio/HF optimizations and DFT/GIAO based 13 C NMR chemical shift calculations. Excellent linear relationships have been observed between experimental and calculated 13 C NMR chemical shifts for both epimers. For methyl lithocholate (MeLC), the other minimum energy conformation equates very well with the single crystal X-ray structure …

Timolol derivatives. I. X-ray, NMR and theoretical studies of the crystallization of (S)-timolol O,O-diacetyl-l-tartaric acid monoester

1993

Abstract The absolute configurations of (S)-timolol hemihydrate and (S)-timolol O,O-diacetyl-(R,R)-tartaric acid monoester were determined by single crystal X-ray diffraction. An NMR analysis based on the temperature dependence of vicinal coupling constants was carried out to characterize the conformational behaviour of the S,R,R- and R,R,R-forms in solution. The same conformation as in crystalline state was also found in solution, although with a rather low preference over some other conformations. Results of theoretical calculations using MNDO and AMBER force field methods are reported. An infinite chain of hydrogen bonds, along with other favourable inter- and intramolecular forces that …

Dicopper(II) Metallacyclophanes with Oligo(p-phenylene-ethynylene) Spacers: Experimental Foundations and Theoretical Predictions on Potential Molecul…

2013

Two novel double-stranded dicopper(II) metallacyclophanes of formula (nBu4N)4[Cu2(dpeba)2]·4MeOH·2Et2O (1) and (nBu4N)4[Cu2(tpeba)2]·12H2O (2) have been prepared by the Cu(II)-mediated self-assembly of the rigid ('rod-like') bridging ligands N,N'-4,4'-diphenylethynebis(oxamate) (dpeba) and N,N'-1,4-di(4-phenylethynyl)phenylenebis(oxamate) (tpeba), respectively. Single crystal X-ray diffraction analysis of 1 confirms the presence of a dicopper(II)tetraaza[3.3]4,4'-diphenylethynophane metallacyclic structure featuring a very long intermetallic distance between the two square planar Cu(II) ions [r = 14.95(1) Å]. The overall parallel-displaced π-stacked conformation of the two nearly planar par…

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…

2015

As ingle crystal to single crystal transmetallation process takes place in the three-dimensional (3D) metal- organic framework (MOF) of formula Mg II 2{Mg II 4(Cu II 2- (Me3mpba)2)3}·45 H2 O( 1 ;M e 3mpba 4¢ = N,N'-2,4,6-trimethyl- 1,3-phenylenebis(oxamate)). After complete replacement of the Mg II ions within the coordination network and those hosted in the channels by either Co II or Ni II ions, 1 is transmetallated to yield two novel MOFs of formulae Co2 II {Co II 4(Cu II 2(Me3- mpba)2)3}·56 H2 O( 2 )a nd Ni2 II {Ni II 4(Cu II 2(Me3mpba)2)3}· 54 H2 O( 3). This unique postsynthetic metal substitution affords materials with higher structural stability leading to enhanced gas sorption and m…
