Abstract From an equimolar dipeptide/xanthosine mixture in water/methanol, only the nucleoside crystallized in anhydrous form, space group P212121 with a = 17.406 (5) Å, b = 12.378 (4), c = 5.350 (2) Å, Z = 4, C10H12O6N4, FW = 284.26, Dx = 1.639 g · cm-3. The structure was determined by direct methods on the basis of 984 X-ray data and refined to an agreement index of R = 3.9%. Xanthosine occurs in the syn conformation with χ = -132.7° which is stabilized by an intramolecular hydrogen bond N (3) - H ... O(5′). The pseudorotation parameters for sugar puckering are P = 156° and τm = 38.7° corresponding to C(2′)-endo form. The crystal packing of xanthosine in anhydrous and dihydrate modifications are very different, yet the molecular conformations are similar. In the anhydrous form, an unusual intramolecular hydrogen bond O (2′) - H ... O(3′) is observed.

An X-ray crystal structure and 1H n.m.r. analysis of the biphenyl phosphorane (4a) has revealed the presence of an intramolecular hydrogen bond resulting in an unusual biphenyl with a bridge forming a nine- membered ring. The related biphenyl phosphorane (4b) exists as two diastereoisomers.

The molecular structures of exo-7-methylbicyclo[3.3.1]nonan-3-one, 3, and the endo-7-methyl isomer, 4, have been determined using X-ray-diffraction techniques. Compound 3 crystallizes in the space group [Formula: see text] with a = 15.115(1), c = 7.677(2) Å, and Z = 8 while 4 crystallizes in the space group P21 with a = 6.446(1), b = 7.831(1), c = 8.414(2) Å, β = 94.42(2)°, and Z = 2. The structures were solved by direct methods and refined to final agreement factors of R = 0.041 and R = 0.034 for 3 and 4 respectively. Compound 3 exists in a chair–chair conformation and there is no significant flattening of the chair rings. However, in 4, the non-ketone ring is forced into a boat conformation. These results are significant in interpreting what conformations may be present in the related sp2-hybridized carbocations.

The X-ray crystal structure of 3α,4α:5β,6β-diepoxyandrostan-17-one has been determined. Crystals of the title compound (C19H26O3)are monoclinic, space group P21, with a 9.208(2), b 9.620(4), c 9.312(3) �, β 99.14(2)�, V 814.5 Ǻ3 and Z 2. The structure was solved by direct methods and refined to R 0.039 for 887 observed reflexions. The 3α,4α:5β,6β configuration of the epoxide rings confirms the assignment based on proton n.m.r. studies.

Abstract 2-Hydroxy-5-methoxyphenylphosphonic acid (H3L1) and the complex [Cu(H2L1)2(H2O)2] were synthesized and characterized by IR spectroscopy, thermogravimetry, and X-ray diffraction analysis. The polyhedron of the copper atom is an axially elongated square bipyramid with oxygen atoms of phenolic and of monodeprotonated phosphonic groups at the base and oxygen atoms of water molecules at the vertices. The protonation constants of the H3L1 acid and the stability constants of its Cu2+ complexes in water were determined by potentiometric titration. The protonation constants of the acid in water are significantly influenced by the intramolecular hydrogen bond and the methoxy group. The H3L1 acid forms complexes CuL‒ and CuL24‒ with Cu2+ in water.

The synthesis of a new CF3-containing stereogenic atropisomeric pair of ortho-disubstituted biphenyl scaffold is presented. The atropisomers are surprisingly conformationally stable for isolation. X-ray structures show that their stability comes from an intramolecular hydrogen bond formation from their two hydroxyl groups and renders the spatial arrangement of their peripheral CF3 and CH3 groups very different. The synthesized stereogenic scaffold proved to be effective in catalyzing the asymmetric N-nitroso aldol reaction of enamine and nitrosobenzene. Compared to similar scaffolds without CF3 groups, one of our atropisomer exhibits an increase in enantioselectivity in this reaction.

Since the amino and the hydroxyl groups of 4-(2-hydroxyphenyl)-2-phenyl-2,3-dihydro-1H-1,5- benzodiazepine can both act as nucleophiles, the introduction of both an N-acetyl and an O-acetyl group is expected when the compound is allowed to react with an excess of an electrophile such as acetic anhydride. An intramolecular hydrogen bond between OH and N-5 of the benzodiazepine has been used to obtain differentiation between the two possible sites of acetylation. Thus, this feature offers a preparatively utilizable protecting effect for the OH group and allows for a regioselective N-acetylation at ambient temperature. Both mono- and diacetylated compounds were prepared and characterized by crystal structure analysis

The crystal structure of N,N'-ethylenebis(1,1,1-trifluoro-4-iminopentan-2-one) (tfaen) was determined: C12H14F6N2O2, M 342.04, monoclinic, space group P21/n, a 6.939(2), b 20.529(5), c 10.662(2) �, V 1507.84 �3 β 96.87(2)�, p(calc.) 1.506 g cm-3 (Z = 4), F(000)680, �(Cu Kα) 13.15 cm-1. The structure was solved by direct methods and refined to a final R value of 0.073 for 1198 unique reflections. Discrete molecules in the crystal are characterized by a conjugated enamino ketone structure with intramolecular hydrogen bridges.
