Abstract The X-ray crystallographic structure of the title compound, a product of a 1,3-dipolar cy­ cloaddition reaction of benzonitrile oxide to 3,3,4,4,5,5-hexamethyl-1,2-bis(methylene)cyclopentane, has been determined. Colourless plates crystallize in the orthorhombic space group Pbca with cell dimensions a = 13.698(2), b = 11.836(2), c = 29.157(4) Å, V= 4727.2(1.2)Å3, Z = 8, 3736 reflections, final R(F) = 0.063 and wR(F2) = 0.166. The crystals are racemic, the molecules of opposite chirality form centrosymmetric dimers via intermolecular hydro­ gen bonds O-H···N between their oxime groups. The molecules are highly strained and the geometrical consequences of the steric strain are discussed.

We have studied the reaction of both D- and L-penicillamine with pyridoxal hydrochloride and examined the products by single crystal X-ray diffraction. The structure of the title compound, A, formed by the reaction of D-penicillamine and pyridoxal was determined. Crystals are orthorhombic, P212121, with cell dimensions a = 9.507(5), b = 19.185(5), c = 7.766(2) Å and Z = 4. The structure was solved by standard methods and refined to R = 0.088, Rw = 0.079 for 2433 independent reflections. A exists as a zwitterion, and bond lengths and angles are normal. In the solid state, A and the corresponding product obtained from L-penicillamine, B, have identical geometrical structure but are of opposite chirality; that is, D-penicillamine produces the 2R,4S diastereomer and L-penicillamine produces the 2S,4R diastereomer (with no S,S and R,R components). In solution, however, NMR spectra show the presence of both pairs of diastereomers (2R,4S and 2S,4S; 2S,4R and 2R,4R). In neutral or alkaline solution there appears to be a rapid epimerization at the thiazolidine carbon atom attached to the pyridoxal moiety. Features of the mass, 1H NMR, vibrational, and electronic spectra are also discussed. Key words: D-penicillamine, vitamin B6, pyridoxal hydrochloride, therapeutic uses, bischemical reactions, structures.

An appreciable degree of pyramidalization of the amine N atom is observed in the title compound. The existence of polar chains, induced by N—H...O synthons, is confirmed. C—H...O interactions, not noted in a previous X-ray study, were found to stabilize further the known head-to-tail assembling of the chains. The structure can be described as non-polar (101) layers, embodying chains interlinked by centrosymmetric dimers, connected by C(aryl)—H...π interactions. The latter are not present in m-nitroaniline, 2-methyl-4-nitroaniline and other related compounds with chains built from similar N—H...O synthons and assembled head-to-head. This finding implies that an obvious relationship between molecular recognition patterns and crystal structures should not be assumed.

1,1,3,3-Tetracyanopropane, 1, was prepared in low yields by a literature method with 2,2,4,4,6-pentacyanocyclohexenamine, 2, as a major by-product. The products were examined by X-ray crystallography. 1 has an orthorhombic space group, Pbcn (No. 60) with cell dimensions, a = 7.158(2), b = 10.510(3), c = 9.733(2) Å and has four formula units in the unit cell. 2 has a monoclinic cell, P21/c (No. 14) with cell dimensions a = 14.368(3), b = 6.626(1), c = 12.300(2) Å, β = 115.60(1)° and has 4 formula units in the unit cell. Data were collected with use of MoKα radiation and a Nicolet P3 diffractometer. The crystal structures were determined by standard methods and refined to Rw = 0.037 (1) and Rw = 0.040 (2) on the basis of 782 and 2108 unique reflections. Bond lengths and angles in the two compounds are normal. 2 has what has been considered to be the less likely tautomeric structure. Both compounds were examined by 1H, 13C nmr, vibrational spectroscopy, and mass spectroscopy. For 2 there was no evidence of the alternative tautomeric structure. New methods were developed for the preparation of both compounds and the mechanism of the original reaction rationalized.

The title compound, C20H22N8O2, was synthesized by the coupling reaction of a sodium tetrazolate salt and dibromobutane in a molar ratio of 2:1. The reaction can produce several possible regioisomers and the title compound was separated as the major product. The X-ray crystallographic study confirmed that the title compound crystallizes in the monoclinic P21/c space group and possesses a bridging butylene group that connects two identical phenyl tetrazole moieties. The butylene group is attached not to the first but the second nitrogen atoms of both tetrazole rings. The dihedral angles between the phenyl groups and the adjacent tetrazolyl rings are 5.32 (6) and 15.37 (7)°. In the crystal, the molecules form centrosymmetric dimers through C—H...O hydrogen bonds between a C—H group of the butylene linker and the O atom of a methoxy group.

Apolipoprotein-H (Apo-H, Mw ≃ 50 kDa) is a carbohydrate-rich human-plasma protein which exists in blood serum in the free form as well as distributed between several classes of lipoproteins. Single crystals of apo-H have been obtained and crystallographic data sets have been collected. The crystals belong to the orthorhombic space group C2221, with cell dimensions a = 158.47, b = 169.25, c = 113.28 Å (at 100 K). The data indicate that the crystallographic asymmetric unit contains one tetramer of the protein.

The structure of metastable, incommensurately modulated Na2Si3O7 has been determined from single-crystal X-ray diffraction data. In contrast to previous investigations which stated that the compound crystallizes in an orthorhombic space group, this study shows that the compound is monoclinic with a pseudo-orthorhombic cell and is affected by twinning. The structure is described in the (3 + 1)-dimensional superspace. Crenel-type modulation functions are used to account for an aperiodic sequence of right- and left-handed zweier single chains of silicate tetrahedra. The modulation mainly affects one of the two symmetrically independent tetrahedral chains, which are connected to build up [Si3O7]2− layers. Sodium cations are coordinated by five oxygen ligands and provide linkage between adjacent tetrahedral sheets. Distortions of the silicate tetrahedra and crystal chemical relationships of the title compound to sodium and lithium di- and metasilicates are discussed in detail.

A truncated β-amylase (E.C. 3.2.1.2) from Bacillus polymyxa has been crystallized using the hanging-drop vapour-diffusion method at 277 K. The crystals belong to the orthorhombic space group P212121 with cell dimensions a = 64.6, b = 141.9, c = 155.1 Å and diffract to 2.5 Å resolution. The asymmetric unit containing three protein molecules was derived from an electron-density map calculated at 4 Å resolution using MIR phases. This gives a Vm value of 2.36 Å3 Da−1.

A single crystal X-ray diffraction analysis has shown that the title compound, in which all carbon atoms are sp2 hybridized, exists with the ten membered ring in a slightly twisted tub conformation. The 13C nmr spectrum is also reported.

Abstract The crystal structure of the known title compound was determined by low-temperature X-ray diffraction (orthorhombic, space group Pbcn, Z = 4). The molecule displays an unusually short O-N bond, a relatively long C-O bond and a moderately pyramidal O-NS2 skeleton (O-N 133.1, C-O 148.5 pm, sum of bond angles at N: 347.4°).
