Two furan-2,5-dicarboxylic acid solvates crystallized from dimethylformamide and dimethyl sulfoxide

Furan-2,5-dicarboxylic acid (FDCA) has been ranked among the top 12 bio-based building-block chemicals by the Department of Energy in the US. The molecule was first synthesized in 1876, but large-scale production has only become possible since the development of modern bio- and chemical catalysis techniques. The structures of two FDCA solvates, namely, FDCA dimethylformamide (DMF) disolvate, C6H4O5·2C3H7NO, (I), and FDCA dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) monosolvate, C6H4O5·C2H6OS, (II), are reported. Solvate (I) crystallizes in the orthorhombic Pbcn space group and solvate (II) crystallizes in the triclinic P\overline{1} space group. In (I), hydrogen bonds form between the carbonyl O atom in DMF and a hydroxy H atom in FDCA. Whilst in (II), the O atom in one DMSO molecule hydrogen bonds with hydroxy H atoms in two FDCA molecules. Combined with intermolecular S...O interactions, FDCA molecules form a two-dimensional network coordinated by DMSO.

Monoclinic polymorph of chlorido(dimethyl sulfoxide-κO)triphenyltin(IV)

The crystal structure of the title tin complex, [Sn(C6H5)3Cl(C2H6OS)], (I), has been reported with one molecule in the asymmetric unit in an orthorhombic cell [Kumar et al. (2009). Acta Cryst. E65, m1602–m1603]. While using SnPh3Cl as a starting material for a reaction for which the products were recrystallized over a very long time (six months) from dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO), a new polymorph was obtained for (I), with two independent molecules in the asymmetric unit of a monoclinic cell. The coordination geometry of the Sn centres remains unchanged, with the Cl− ion and the DMSO molecule in the apical positions and the phenyl C atoms in the equatorial positions of a trigonal bipyramid. The main difference between the polymorphs is the relative orientation of the phenyl rings in the equatorial plane, reflecting a degree of free rotation of these groups about their Sn—C bonds. In the crystal, molecules are linked into [010] chains mediated by weak C—H...O interactions.

Dicarboxylato platinum(ii) complexes containing dimethyl sulfoxide and triazolopyrimidine as potential anticancer agents: synthesis, structural and biological studies in solution

N,O,S-donors platinum(ii) complexes were synthesized and well characterized. We demonstrate that modification of coordination sphere by insertion of dmso molecule and bulky triazolopyrimidine ligand is good direction for the design effective less toxic platinum(ii) complexes.

Structural parameters of dimethyl sulfoxide, DMSO, at 100 K, based on a redetermination by use of high-quality single-crystal X-ray data

The title compound, C2H6OS, is a high melting, polar and aprotic solvent widely used in organic and inorganic chemistry. It serves as a H-atom acceptor in hydrogen bonding and is used as an ambidentate ligand in coordination chemistry. The evaluation of the influence of intermolecular interactions on the internal structural parameters of the chemically bonded DMSO molecules affords precise structural data of the free molecule as a point of reference. So far, valid data have been obtained only by use of neutron powder diffraction [Ibberson (2005).Acta Cryst.C61, o571–o573]. In the present redetermination, structural data have been obtained from a single-crystal X-ray diffraction experiment at 100 K, revealing a better comparison with DMSO molecules in other crystal structures. In the solid state, the pyramidal molecule exhibits a nearly perfectCssymmetry [including H atoms, which are eclipsed with respect to the C...C axis], with a C—S—C bond angle of 97.73 (7)° and an S—O bond length of 1.5040 (10) Å, corresponding very well with an S=O double bond, and with almost equal S—C bond lengths [mean value = 1.783 (4) Å] and O—S—C bond angles [mean value = 106.57 (4)°]. The crystal packing is influenced by C—H...O interactions (2.42–2.47 Å) between all three H atoms of only one methyl group with the O atoms of three neighbouring DMSO molecules. The interactions of the O atom with H atoms (or Lewis acids, or hydrogen-donor groups) of adjacent molecules in relation to the orientation of the complete DMSO molecule are described in terms of the angle ω and the distancednorm; ω is the angle between the pseudo-mirror plane of the molecule and the plane defined through the S=O bond and the interacting atom, anddnormis the distance of the interacting atom from the plane perpendicular to the S=O bond.

Five-Coordinate Zinc(II) Complex: Synthesis, Characterization, Molecular Structure, and Antibacterial Activities of Bis-[(E)-2-hydroxy-N′-{1-(4-methoxyphenyl)ethylidene}benzohydrazido]dimethylsulfoxidezinc(II) Complex

The titled Zn(II) complex was synthesized by reacting the compound (E)-2-hydroxy-N′-{1-(4-methoxyphenyl)ethylidene}benzohydrazide with zinc(II) acetate dihydrate in alkaline DMSO and ethanol solution under reflux condition for 28 hours. The resulting solid was filtered and recrystallized from the mixture of ethanol and DMSO. The hydrazone Schiff base and its Zn(II) complex were characterized using 1H, 13C NMR, FTIR, UV-Vis spectroscopy, and single crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. Meanwhile, their antibacterial activities were examined using disc diffusion method. The spectral studies showed that the hydrazone Schiff base underwent keto-enol tautomerization, forming a bidentate ligand (N,O) towards Zn(II) ion. Surprisingly, on top of the two hydrazone Schiff base molecules which coordinated to the Zn metal center, an additional DMSO molecule was found attached to the Zn metal center in the crystal data, resulting in a 5-coordinate distorted trigonal bipyramidal Zn(II) complex. Both hydrazone Schiff base and its Zn(II) complexes were found to exhibit low antibacterial activity even when the concentrations were increased to 800 ppm.

Crystal structure of μ-oxalato-κ2O1:O2-bis[(dimethyl sulfoxide-κO)triphenyltin(IV)]

In the previously reported [C2O4(SnPh3)2] complex [Diopet al.(2003).Appl. Organomet. Chem.17, 881–882.], the SnIVatoms are able to formally complete their coordination by addition of dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) molecules provided by the reaction medium, affording the title complex, [Sn2(C6H5)6(C2O4)(C2H6OS)2]. The SnIVatoms are then pentacoordinated, with a commontranstrigonal–bipyramidal arrangement. The asymmetric unit contains one half-molecule, which is completed by inversion symmetry in space group typeC2/c. The inversion centre is placed at the mid-point of the central bis-monodentate oxalate dianion, C2O42−, which bridges the [(SnPh3)(DMSO)] moieties. The molecule crystallizes as a disordered system, with two phenyl rings disordered by rotation about their Sn—C bonds, while the DMSO molecule is split over two positions due to a tetrahedral inversion at the S atom. All disordered parts were refined with occupancies fixed of 0.5.

Crystal structure of hexakis(dimethyl sulfoxide-κO)manganese(II) tetraiodide

The title salt, [Mn(C2H6OS)6]I4, is made up from discrete [Mn(DMSO)6]2+(DMSO is dimethyl sulfoxide) units connected through non-classical hydrogen bonds to linear I42−tetraiodide anions. The MnIIion in the cation, situated on a position with site symmetry -3., is octahedrally coordinated by O atoms of the DMSO molecule with an Mn—O distance of 2.1808 (12) Å. The I42−anion contains a neutral I2molecule weakly coordinated by two iodide ions, forming a linear centrosymmetric tetraiodide anion. The title compound is isotypic with the Co, Ni, Cu, and Zn analogues.

Oximes in the Isoxazolone, Pyrazolone, and 1,2,3-Triazolone Series: Experimental and Computational Investigation of Energies and Structures of E/Z Isomers of α-Oxo-Oximes in the Gas Phase and in Solution

The structures of a series of heterocyclic α-oxo-oximes, viz. 4-oximinoisoxazolone-5(4H)-ones 1 and 2,4-oximino-5(4H)-pyrazolones 3–5, and 4-oximino-1-phenyl-1,2,3-triazol-5(4H)-one 6, were investigated experimentally and computationally. Whereas the intramolecularly H-bonded ZZ isomers of these oximes are usually the most stable in the gas phase, this preference is overcome by intermolecular H-bonding to a solvent or another molecule. For 1,3-dimethyl-4-oximino-5(4H)-pyrazolone 3b a turnaround is seen when going from the solid (predominantly Z isomer) to DMSO solution (predominantly E isomer), which can be ascribed to an intermolecular H-bond between the oxime OH function and a DMSO molecule. Such isomerization is not seen in CDCl3, where intermolecular H-bonding is unimportant. The Z/E-isomerization in DMSO solution is accelerated by photolysis. Calculations of the energies of different conformers, and of 13C NMR data at the GIAO-ωb97xD/6-31G(d)//M06-2X/6-311++G(d,p) level permit a clear-cut correlation of conformer structures with observed 13C NMR spectra.

Synthesis, crystal structures, spectral, electrochemical and magnetic properties of di-µ-phenoxido-bridged dinuclear copper(II) complexes with N-salicylidene-2-hydroxybenzylamine derivatives: axial coordination effect of dimethyl sulphoxide molecule

The template reaction of salicylaldehyde and its substituted derivatives and 2-hydroxy-5-bromobenzylamine or 2-hydroxy-5-chlorobenzylamine with copper(II) acetate in dimethyl sulphoxide (dmso) afforded eight dinuclear Cu(II) complexes, [Cu2(L)2(dmso)2] (H2 L = N-salicylidene-2-hydroxy-5-bromobenzylamine, N-salicylidene-2-hydroxy-5-chlorobenzylamine and their 5-bromo, 5-nitro and 5-methyl-substituted salicylidene derivatives). These Cu(II) complexes were characterised by IR and UV-VIS-NIR spectroscopy, electric conductivity, cyclic voltammetry, and temperature dependence of magnetic susceptibilities (4.5–300 K). In the THF solution, the complexes are nonelectrolytes and exhibit a characteristic CT band due to phenoxido-bridging at 360–384 nm. In the cyclic voltammograms, an irreversible reduction process was observed at −1.18–1.54 V vs Fc/Fc+. Single-crystal X-ray crystallography revealed that two Cu(II) ions were bridged by the two phenoxido-oxygen atoms of the two Schiff-base ligands with axial coordination of dmso molecules forming a square pyramid with a Cu-Cu distance of 3.0628(8)–3.0931(6) °A. In accordance with the crystal structures, the magnetic interaction between the two Cu(II) ions is relatively anti-ferromagnetic with −2J value of 386–575 cm−1. The axial coordination effect of the dmso molecule was discussed in relation to the correlation between the Cu-O-Cu angle and the −2J value.
