Two new structures of semisynthetic ergot alkaloid terguride created by unusual number of symmetry-independent molecules were determined by X-ray diffraction methods at 150 K. Form A (monoclinic, P212121, Z = 12) contains three symmetry-independent terguride molecules and two molecules of water in the asymmetric part of the unit cell. The form CA (monoclinic, P21, Z = 8) is an anhydrate remarkable by the presence of four symmetry-independent molecules in the crystal structure. Conformations of twelve symmetry-independent molecules that were found in four already described terguride structures are compared with torsion angles obtained by ab initio quantum-mechanical calculations for the simplified model of N-cyclohexyl-N'-diethylurea.

One monoclinic and three orthorhombic structures of natural ergot alkaloid lisuride were solved by X-ray diffraction techniques. The conformation analysis has revealed that side chain orientations of lisuride differ significantly from those observed in related terguride (trans-dihydrolisuride). The conformation found in individual lisuride molecules corresponds to another minimum of total energy calculated by ab initio quantum-mechanical calculations for a simplified model of 3-(cyclohex-2-en-1-yl)-1,1-diethylurea.

Abstract The pyridine complexes of cyclo-thiazeno vanadium dichloride, [VCl2(N3S2)py] and [VCl2(N3S2)(py)2] were synthesized by reactions of polymeric VCl2(N3S2) with varying amounts of pyridine in CH2Cl2. The compounds were characterized by their IR spectra as well as by their 51V NM R spectra. The crystal structure of [VCl2(N3S2)(C5H5N)] was determined by means of X-ray diffraction (1582 independent observed reflexions, R = 0.031). Crystal data: orthorhombic, space group Pnma, a = 1372, b - 2261, c - 1068 pm, Z = 12. In the lattice there are two monomeric, crystallographically independent molecules [VCl2(N3S2)(C5H5N)], which differ only slightly. The vanadium atoms have a trigonal bipyramidal coordination with the N atom of the pyridine molecule and one chlorine atom in apical positions, and with one chlorine atom and the N atoms of the cyclo-thiazeno ligand in equatorial positions. The VN bond lengths of the planar VN3S2 ring of 174 pm correspond to double bonds

The crystal structure of the title compound has been determined by direct methods from X-ray diffraction data and refined by least squares to a residual of 0.071 for 2647 'observed' reflections. Crystals are monoclinic, C2/c, a = 36.81(1), b = 11.181(2), c = 20.369(5) �, β = 95.28(3)�, Z = 32. There are four independent molecules in the asymmetric unit, all with the cis disposition of ligands (<Fe-Hg), 2.498 �; <Hg-Fe-Hg), 80.9�); in one of the molecules one of the carbonyl sites is occupied by a more substantial moiety, possibly a result of partial occupancy of HgCl as a result of disorder or decomposition.

1-[N-(4-Iodophenyl)]aminomethylidene-2(1H)naphthalenone (1) (C17H12NOI) has been studied by X-ray analysis, IR, 1H NMR, UV and AM1 semi-empirical quantum mechanical methods. It crystallises in the monoclinic space group P21/n with a = 4.844(3), b = 21.428(2), c = 13.726(2) Å, ß = 93.07(2)° (R1 =0.032 for 4132 reflections [I > 2σ(I)]). The title compound is not planar and an intramolecular hydrogen bond connects O1 and N1 [2.530(4) Å]. Complementary IR, 1H NMR and UV measurements out. Tautomerism and conformations of the title semi-empirical quantum mechanical calculations and the results are compared with the X-ray data.

Abstract The transsilylation reaction between allyltrichlorosilane and 8-trimethylsiloxyquinoline in the molar ratio 1 : 3 yields the hexacoordinated silicon tris-chelate (oxinate)2Si(adho) (“oxinate” = 8- oxyquinolinate, “adho” = di-anion of 2-allyl-1,2-dihydro-8-oxyquinoline) comprising an SiO3N3 skeleton. The identity of this complex was established by single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis and 29Si CP=MAS NMR spectroscopy of its chloroform solvate. Benzyltrichlorosilane and dibenzyldichlorosilane, comprising benzyl (Bn) as an “aromatically stabilized allyl moiety” did not undergo such rearrangement. Instead, the complexes (oxinate)2SiBnCl and (oxinate)2SiBn2 were obtained even upon using three molar equivalents of 8-trimethylsiloxyquinoline. We determined the crystal structure of a non-disordered bis-chelate (oxinate)2SiBnCl with Sibound hydrocarbyl and halogen substituents (the previously published (oxinate)2SiMeCl was disordered with alternative Me=Cl site occupancies). (Oxinate)2SiBnCl exhibits surprisingly poor response of the N-Si bonds to the different trans-disposed Si-X (X=Bn, Cl) bonds. For comparison and deeper insights into the coordination chemistry of oxinato silicon complexes with halide substituents, we determined the crystal structures of (oxinate)2SiPhCl·CHCl3, (oxinate)2SiCl2, (oxinate)2SiF2·1.5(CHCl3), and (8-oxyquinaldinate)2SiF2. Furthermore, the crystal structures of BnSiCl3 and Bn2SiCl2 (and its dibromo analog) are reported. The influence of the Si-C-C-C torsion angles of the benzyl group on the 29Si NMR shift of benzylsilanes (which is noticeably upfield with respect to analogous methyl silanes) was analyzed by quantum-chemical calculations.

The crystal structure of 2-(2′,6′-dinitrophenoxy)-t-butylbenzene, C16HI5N2O5, has been determined by X-ray diffraction. The crystals are monoclinic, space group P21/c: a = 13.949(9), b = 9.652(6), c = 23.806(12) Å, β = 93.82(5), Z = 8. The integrated intensities of 6811 reflections were recorded with a four circle automated diffractometer at 20 °C; 3334 of these reflections were used in the refinement of the structure to a least-squares weighted residual of 0.057 and a traditional R factor of 0.057.The two crystallographically independent molecules both have the skew-t-butyl-distal conformation, suggesting that the steric effects of the two ortho-nitro groups play a greater role in determining the conformation than does conjugation with the bridging oxygen atom.

A simple, one-pot process for the construction of substituted spiro[5,5]undecane-1,5,9-triones using aromatic aldehydes and Meldrum’s acid, and aniline as a catalyst, is reported. Fifteen compounds were synthesized, and the trans/cis ratios were calculated based on 1H NMR analyses of the unpurified products. Quantum mechanical calculations and X-ray diffraction were undertaken to identify the configuration of compound 2a. The proposed mechanisms for these reactions are presented in this paper. In contrast to previous literature, this method endows excellent diastereoselectivity to a series of trans-substituted derivatives. The method is characterized by its simple operation, commercial availability of all materials, mild reaction conditions and moderate-to-good chemical yields.
