Nitration of 4-nitroimidazole in acetic anhydride/glacial acetic acid gives 1,4-dinitroimidazole. The crystal and molecular structure of this compound have been determined by direct methods. Crystals are orthorhombic; P212121, a 5.853(3), b 9.591(8), c 10.392(5) � , V 583.4(7) � 3 , Dm 1 .76 g cm-1, Dc, 1 .80 g cm-1 (Z = 4); λ 0.71069 � ; T 173 K. The structure was refined to R = 0.048 for 926 reflections [I > 2 σ(1)]. Both 2-methyl-4-nitro- and 5-methyl-4-nitro-imidazoles N-nitrate under the same conditions. When heated in solution at 100-140�C 1,4-dinitro- and 2-methyl-1,4-dinitro-imidazoles rearrange to give C-nitro isomers and some denitration products, but 5(4)-methyl-1,4(5)-dinitroimidazole failed to give identifiable products.

Crystals of B,B-bis(p-tolyl)boroxazolidine, 1c, are trigonal, a = 25.1028(9), c = 12.4184(7) Å, Z = 18, space group [Formula: see text]. And crystals of B,B-diphenylboroxazolidine, 1a, are orthorhombic, a = 17.6420(4), b = 14.2527(3), c = 10.205(1) Å, Z = 8, space group Pbca. Both structures were solved by direct methods and were refined by full-matrix least-squares procedures to final R values of 0.057 and 0.040 for 2230 and 1828 reflections with I ≥ 3σ(I) respectively. Both molecules have structures similar to related compounds and feature intermolecular N—H … O hydrogen bonds (N … O = 2.982(2) for 1c and 2.896(2) Å for 1a). Bond lengths are: for 1c; O—C, 1.413(3), O—B, 1.478(3), N—C, 1.488(3), N—B, 1.657(3), C(sp3)—C(sp3), 1.501(4), B—C, 1.616(3) and 1.623(3), mean C—C(ar), 1.395, N—H, 0.93(2) and 0.94(2), mean C(sp3)—H, 1.00, and mean C(ar)—H, 1.00 Å; for 1a; O—C, 1.409(2), O—B, 1.476(2), N—C, 1.489(2), N—B, 1.655(2), C(sp3)—C(sp3), 1.507(3), B—C, 1.613(2) and 1.620(2), mean C—C(ar), 1.391, N—H, 0.93(2) and 0.92(2), mean C(sp3)—H, 1.00, and mean C(ar)—H, 0.98 Å. A statistical analysis of the phenyl C—C distances in compounds 1a, 1b, and 1c has provided an example of statistically significant substituent-induced bond length variation in the phenyl rings.

The heterocyclic derivatives, 8,9-dimethoxy-3-methyl-1-phenyl-3,4,5,6- tetrahydro-1H-2,3-benzoxazocine(3a) and 9,10-dimethoxy-3-methyl-1- phenyl-1,3,4,5,6,7-hexahydro-2,3-benzoxazonine (3b),examples of two new ring systems, have been prepared by Meisenheimer rearrangement of the corresponding 2-benzazepine and 2-benzazocine N-oxide derivatives (2a) and (2b). The Bischler-Napieralski-type cyclization reaction was used in the preparation of the tertiary amine precursors of these N-oxides reaction conditions for the cyclization were critical and phosphorus oxychloride in refluxing butanenitrile was found to give the best yields of the seven- or eight-membered cyclic imine intermediates. Reductive cleavage of the benzoxazocine derivative (3a) with zinc in acetic acid followed by N-methylation gave the expected product, [2-{3- (dimethylamino)propyl}-4,5-di-methoxyphenyl]phenylmethanol (12). The crystal and molecular structure of (3a) has been determined by X-ray crystallographic analysis.

The manganese(II) complex [Mn(picl)2,2H2O]n of the herbicide picloram has been prepared and the crystal and molecular structure determined from three-dimensional X-ray data collected by counter methods. The crystals of the complex are monoclinic, space group 12/a with two complex units in a cell of dimensions a 23·052(5), b 13·840(2), c 6·441(1) �, β 98·20(1)�. The structure was solved by direct methods and refined by full matrix least squares to unweighted and weighted Rfactors of 0·035 and 0·038 respectively for 887 'observed' reflections. The polymer is best described as having a centrosymmetric two-molecule unit [Mn-O, 2·162(3), 2·246(3) �] with two oxo bridges between manganese centres through two single carboxylate oxygens of the four substituted picolinate ligands. The two molecules are related by a twofold axis. The units form infinite one-dimensional polymer chains in the c direction through oxo bridges involving one oxygen from the other two picolinate ligands [Mn-Mn 3·636(1)�]. The bis(bidentate)picolinate bites are completed by the pyridlne nitrogens [Mn-N, 2·313(4) �] giving a very distorted octahedral MnO4N2 coordination sphere about each manganese [N-Mn-N', 97.0(3)�; O-Mn-O range, 68·9-168.2(3)�; O-Mn-Nrange, 69·9-138·5(3)�]. The lattice waters are involved in hydrogen-bonding interactions which link the polymer in the a crystallographic direction with the uncoordinated carboxylate oxygen ( O···O,2·824, 2·936 �) and the 4-amino groups from the adjacent picolinate ligand (N· ··0, 2·852, 3·030�).

The reaction of N,N′-dihydroxy-N,N′-dimethylmethanediamine with phenylboronic acid leads to the product 1,7-dimethyl-3,5-diphenyl-2,4,6-trioxa-7-aza-1-azonia-3-bora-5-boratabicyclo[3.3.0]octane rather than the expected product 1,5-dimethyl-3-phenyl-1,5-diaza-2,4-dioxa-3-boracyclohexane. The structure of N,N′-dihydroxy-N,N′-dimethylmethanediamine has been determined and is discussed in terms of its reaction with PhB(OH)2. Crystals of N,N′-dihydroxy-N,N′-dimethylmethanediamine are tetragonal, a = 8.5346(3), c = 8.4178(7) Å, Z = 4, space group P421c. The structure was solved by direct methods and was refined by full-matrix least-squares procedures to a final R of 0.036 and Rw of 0.038 for 333 reflections with I ≥ 3σ(I). The structure consists of hydrogen-bonded dimers having exact [Formula: see text] symmetry. Keywords: N,N′-dihydroxy-N,N′-dimethylmethanediamine, crystal structure.
