Abstract Androsta-1,4-dien-17β-ol-3-one, also known as boldenone, is an anabolic-androgenic steroid derived from testosterone. The crystal structures of boldenone base, boldenone acetate, boldenone propionate, boldenone cypionate and a boldenone acetate polymorph obtained by high throughput screening were investigated. Hirshfeld surfaces and fingerprint plots breakdown revealed that the molecular packing in the crystals are driven by dominant H⋯H intermolecular contacts, followed by O⋯H/H⋯O contacts and to a lesser degree C⋯H/H⋯C contacts. The steroid skeleton rings, for all the reported compounds, adopt the following conformation: planar in A, chair in B and C, whereas C(13) envelope conformations are found for the five-membered D rings. The total lattice energies were calculated as a sum of four terms (Coulombic, polarization, dispersion, repulsion).

The crystal and molecular structures of two triphenyltin dithiocarbamate compounds, viz. [Sn(C6H5)3(C8H16NS2)], (I), and [Sn(C6H5)3(C10H12NS2)], (II), are described. The dithiocarbamate ligand in each molecule coordinates in an asymmetric fashion resulting in heavily distorted tetrahedral C3S coordination geometries for the Sn atoms, with the distortions traced to the close approach of the non-coordinating thione-S atom. The molecular packing in both compounds features C—H...π(Sn-phenyl) interactions. In (I), the donors are Sn-phenyl-C—H groups leading to centrosymmetric aggregates, while in (II), the donors are both Sn-phenyl-C—H and methyl-C—H groups leading to supramolecular chains propagating along the b axis. The identified aggregates assemble into their respective crystals with no directional interactions between them. An analysis of the Hirshfeld surfaces show distinctive patterns, but an overwhelming predominance (>99% in each case) of H...H, C...H/H...C and S...H/H...S contacts on the respective Hirshfeld surface.

Crystal And Molecular Structures

The preparation of a series of novel compounds of general formula [Ni5L4(NO2)8(OH)2] formed by ethane-1,2-diamine or one of five N-substituted ethane-1,2-diamines (L) is described. The crystal and molecular structures of the ethane-1,2-diamine, N,N'-diethylethane-1,2-diamine and N,N-dimethylethane-1,2-diamine complexes are reported. Each compound contains a planar, pentameric arrangement of nickel(II) ions, linked by bridging hydroxide and nitrite ligands. The details of the nitrite bridges differ among the complexes, causing differences in their electronic and infrared spectra. The structural variations are probably caused by the differing steric requirements of the amine substituents.

Methionyl Trna Synthetase

Infection by the protozoan parasite Trypanosoma brucei causes human African trypanosomiasis, commonly known as sleeping sickness. The disease is fatal without treatment; yet, current therapeutic options for the disease are inadequate due to toxicity, difficulty in administration and emerging resistance. Therefore, methionyl-tRNA synthetase of T. brucei (TbMetRS) is targeted for the development of new antitrypanosomal drugs. We have recently completed a high-throughput screening campaign against TbMetRS using a 364,131 compounds library in The Scripps Research Institute Molecular Screening Center. Here we outline our strategy to integrate the power of crystal structures with high-throughput screening in a drug discovery project. We applied the rapid crystal soaking procedure to obtain structures of TbMetRS in complex with inhibitors reported earlier[1] to approximately 70 high-throughput screening hits. This resulted in more than 20 crystal structures of TbMetRS·hit complexes. These hits cover a large diversity of chemical structures with IC50 values between 200 nM and 10 µM. Based on the solved structures and existing knowledge drawn from other in-house inhibitors, the IC50 value of the most promising hit has been improved. Further development of the compounds into potent TbMetRS inhibitors with desirable pharmacokinetic properties is on-going and will continue to benefit from information derived from crystal structures.

Infrared Frequencies

The crystal and molecular structures of the compounds [Ni(py)4(ONO)2],2py, [Ni(γmpy),(ONO)2] and [Ni(prz)4(ONO)2] are reported.�All three are trans nitrito complexes, the pyridine (py) compound containing two pyridine molecules of solvation. The aromatic rings in the first two complexes adopt 'paddle wheel' conformations with pitch angles varying between 40 and 70�. The nitrite ions are positioned so as to minimize repulsive interactions with the amines, and it seems likely that these groups bond through oxygen rather than nitrogen because this allows a lesser degree of interligand steric interference. The amine rings in [Ni(prz)4(ONO)2] are orthogonal to the plane containing the nickel and coordinated pyrazole nitrogen atoms; the nitrito groups are disordered between two inequivalent positions, each of which involves hydrogen bonding with the pyrazole NH groups. The nitrite infrared frequencies are similar to those observed for other nickel(II) nitrito complexes except that the antisymmetric NO stretching mode of one of the groups in the pyrazole complex is much lower in energy than expected, being in the range normally associated with a nitrogen-bonded or chelated nitrite group. It is suggested that this deviation may be caused by the hydrogen bonding in the complex. The electronic spectra of the compounds yield 10Dq values of 9100 and 8500 cm-1 for the nitrite ligands in [Ni(py)4(ONO)2] and Ni(prz)4(ONO)2], respectively, placing the nitrito group towards the weaker end of the spectro-chemical series.

Treatment of Ru(acac)3 with 2-cyano-pyridine and 3,5-dimethyl-pyridine in the presence of zinc dust as reducing agent in refluxing THF afforded the ruthenium(II) complexes cis-[RuII(acac)2(2- CN-py)2] (1) and cis-[RuII(acac)2(3,5-Me2-py)2] (2), respectively. Interaction of Ru(acac)3 with 3- Me-pyridine and 3,5-Me2-pyridine in the presence of Br2 in refluxing THF gave the ruthenium(III) complexes [RuIII(acac)Br2(3-Me-py)2] (3) and [RuIII(acac)Br2(3,5-Me2-py)2] (4), respectively. The four complexes have been spectroscopically and electrochemically characterized, and their crystal and molecular structures have been established by X-ray crystallography

The crystal and molecular structures of N-bromobenzamide (NBB), N-bromosuccinimide (NBS), and N,N-dibromobenzenesulfonamide (NBBS) were determined by X-ray structure analysis. The nitrogen atoms in NBB and NBS have a trigonal planar coordination (sp2) and the N—Br distances lie in the same range (1.82 A, 1.84 A). The N—Br distance in NBBS, where the nitrogen atom is sp3-hybridized, is somewhat longer (1.88 A). In these structures the molecules are connected by O···H—N (NBB), O···Br—N (NBS) or N···Br—N (NBBS) intermolecular bonds forming endless chains; positivated hydrogen atoms or, in case that they are absent, positivated bromine atoms act as electron acceptors with oxygen or sp3- hybridized nitrogen atoms. These results suggest, that in solid nitrogen tribromide, the crystal structure of which cannot be determined, the nitrogen atoms will be sp3-hybridized and intermolecular contacts via N—Br···N will occur.
