Diosgenone: a second P2(1) polymorph.

ABSTRACT: Diosgenone [(20S,22R,25R)-spirost-4-en-3-one, C(27)H(40)O(3)] has been proposed as a new therapeutic alternative for the treatment of malaria. The first X-ray structure report for diosgenone was by Piro et al. [(2002). Z. Naturforsch. Teil C, 57, 947-950] in the space group P2(1) (Z' = 2). We now report a new polymorph in the same space group, with two mol-ecules in the asymmetric unit. Both mol-ecules have similar conformations, characterized by a skewed envelope A ring, which contains the C=C bond conjugated with the ketone functionality at C3. The dimorphism results from a modification of the relative orientation of the mol-ecules in the asymmetric unit: two independent mol-ecules were arranged anti-parallel in the Piro report, while they are parallel in the present determination.

A second monoclinic polymorph of N-[bis-(morpholin-4-yl)phosphino-yl]-4-fluoro-benzamide with the P2(1)/n space group.

Project description:A second monoclinic polymorph of the title mol-ecule, C(15)H(21)FN(3)O(4)P, is reported in the space group P2(1)/n and compared to the previously reported C2/c space group [Gholivand et al. (2006 ?). Polyhedron, 25, 711-721]. The asymmetric unit of the title compound consists of two independent mol-ecules. The P atoms adopt a distorted tetra-hedral environment. In the C(O)NHP(O) fragment, the P=O and the N-H groups are in a syn conformation with respect to each other and in the crystal, inter-molecular N-H?O=P hydrogen bonds form dimeric aggregates.

A second triclinic polymorph of azimsulfuron.

Project description:The title compound, C13H16N10O5S (systematic name: 1-(4,6-di-meth-oxypyrimidin-2-yl)-3-{[1-methyl-4-(2-methyl-2H-tetra-zol-5-yl)pyrazol-5-yl]sulfonyl}urea), is a second triclinic polymorph of this crystal [for the other, see: Jeon et al., (2015 ▸). Acta Cryst. E71, o470-o471]. There are two mol-ecules, A and B, in the asymmetric unit; the dihedral angles between the pyrazole ring and the tetra-zole and di-meth-oxy-pyrimidine ring planes are 72.84 (10) and 37.24 (14)°, respectively (mol-ecule A) and 84.38 (9) and 26.09 (15)°, respectively (mol-ecule B). Each mol-ecule features an intra-molecular N-H⋯N hydrogen bond. In the crystal, aromatic π-π stacking inter-actions [centroid-centroid separations = 3.9871 (16), 3.4487 (14) and 3.5455 (16) Å] link the mol-ecules into [001] chains. In addition, N-H⋯N, N-H⋯O, C-H⋯O and C-H⋯N hydrogen bonds occur, forming a three-dimensional architecture. We propose that the dimorphism results from differences in conformations and packing owing to different inter-molecular inter-actions, especially aromatic π-π stacking.

Trithia-cyanuric acid: a second triclinic polymorph.

Project description:The title compound, C(3)H(3)N(3)S(3), is a triclinic modification. The other reported modification crystallizes with just one mol-ecule in the asymmetric unit, [Guo et al. (2006 ▶). Cryst. Growth Des.6, 846-848] and was solved by power X-ray diffraction data. The present modification has Z' = 2. In the crystal, mol-ecules are linked by strong intra-molecular N-H⋯S hydrogen bonds with set graph-motif R(2) (2)(8). In both mol-ecules, all of the N atoms and two of the S atoms are involved in hydrogen bonding, with an average H⋯S distance of 2.58 Å and N-H⋯S angles in the range 163-167°. π-π stacking inter-actions are not observed. In the solid state, the mol-ecules exist in the thione form. The mol-ecular and supra-molecular properties are similar in both polymorphs.

A second polymorph of ?-arteether.

Project description:The crystal structure of the title compound, C(17)H(28)O(5), reported here is a polymorph of the structure first reported by El-Feraly, Al-Yahya, Orabi, McPhail & McPhail [J. Nat. Prod. (1992). 55, 878-883]. It is a derivative of the anti-malaria compound artemisinin and consists primarily of three substituted ring systems fused together. A cyclo-hexane ring (distorted chair conformation) fused to a tetra-hydro-pyran group (distorted chair) is adjacent to an oxacyclo-heptane unit containing an endo-peroxide bridge, giving the mol-ecule its particular three-dimensional arrangement. The crystal packing is stabilized by inter-molecular C-H?O inter-actions between an O atom from the endo-peroxide bridge and H atoms from both the cyclo-hexane and seven-membered oxacyclo-heptane fused rings, as well as between an O atom and H atom from adjacent tetra-hydro-pyran rings. The two polymorphs have the same space group and similar cell parameters for the a and b axes, but significantly different values for the c axis.

1,3-Dicyclo-hexyl-imidazolidine-2,4,5-trione: a second polymorph.

Project description:The title compound, C(15)H(22)N(2)O(3), was obtained as a by-product of oxidative cleavage of 1,3-dicyclo-hexyl-(3-oxo-2,3-dihydro-benzofuran-2-yl)imidazolidine-2,4-dione. Herein, we report the crystal structure of a second polymorph, which was obtained by crystallization from an ethanol solution at 253?K, instead of slow evaporation of the same solvent at room temperature. While the first polymorph [Talhi et al. (2011). Acta Cryst. E67, o3243] crystallized in the non-centrosymmetric space group P2(1)2(1)2(1), this second polymorph crystallizes in the centrosymmetric space group P2(1)/n. Compared to the first polymorph, in the crystal no C=O?C=O inter-actions were found (C?O inter-molecular distance longer than 3.15?Å) and instead, close packing of individual mol-ecular units is mediated by C-H?? and weak C-H?O inter-actions.

A second monoclinic polymorph of methyl 4-hydroxy-benzoate.

Project description:A second monoclinic polymorph of methyl 4-hydroxy-benzoate, C(8)H(8)O(3), is reported. The unit-cell dimensions are different from those of the previously reported monoclinic form [Vujovic & Nassimbeni (2006 ?). Cryst. Growth Des.6, 1595-1597]. The asymmetric unit contains three crystallographically independent mol-ecules, as observed in the previous form. The crystal structure is stabilized by inter-molecular O-H?O and C-H?O hydrogen bonds and C-H?? inter-actions, which link the mol-ecules into a three-dimensional network.

A second polymorph of chlorido(hydroxy-diphenyl-phosphane)gold(I).

Project description:The title complex, [AuCl{(C(6)H(5))(2)P(OH)-?P}] or [AuCl(C(12)H(11)OP)], contains two independent mol-ecules in the asymmetric unit and is a polymorph of a previously reported structure [Hollatz et al. (1999 ?) J. Chem. Soc. Dalton Trans. pp. 111-114]. The crystal structure exhibits inter-molecular Au?Au inter-actions with alternate distances of 3.0112?(3)?Å and 3.0375?(2)?Å. The Cl-Au-P bond angle varies between different mol-ecular units, depending on the degree of influence of the intra-molecular the O-H?Cl hydrogen bond; the angle thus varies between negligible distortion from linearity at 179.23?(3)° and more significant distortion at 170.39?(4)°, which differs from the previously reported polymorph in which both these angles are approximately 170°. The Au-Cl [2.3366?(9) and 2.3131?(10)Å] and Au-P [2.2304?(10) and 2.2254?(10)?Å] bond lengths vary slightly between the two independent mol-ecules but overall, the bond lengths are in good agreement with those in the previously reported polymorph.

A second monoclinic polymorph of 3?-chloro-cholest-5-ene.

Project description:The title compound, C(27)H(45)Cl, is a second monoclinic polymorph which crystallizes in the space group P2(1) with four crystallographically independent mol-ecules in the asymmetric unit. The structure was previously reported [Bernal et al. (1940 ?). Philos. Trans. R. Soc. London Ser. B, 239, 135-182; Vani & Vijayan (1979 ?). Mol. Cryst. Liq. Cryst.51, 253-264], also in the space group P2(1), but with two unique mol-ecules in the asymmetric unit. As in the previously reported structures, rings A and C in the mol-ecule adopt chair conformations with half-chair conformations for rings B and D. The ring junctions B-C and C-D are trans, whereas the junction A-B is quasi-trans. In the crystal structure, mol-ecules are arranged in a head-to-tail fashion along a and are stacked along the b axis.

2-Methyl-N-p-tolyl-benzamide: a second monoclinic polymorph.

Project description:The title compound, C(15)H(15)NO, (I), is a polymorph of the structure (II) reported by Gowda et al. [Acta Cryst. (2008), E64, o1494]. Compound (II) crystalllizes in the space group C2/c (Z = 8), whereas the title compound occurs in space group P2(1)/c (Z = 4). The two mol-ecular structures differ slightly in the relative orientations of their central amide group with respect to the benzoyl ring [dihedral angles of 55.99?(7) for (I) and 59.96?(11)° for (II)] and in the inclination of the benzoyl and aniline rings [88.67?(8) for (I) and 81.44?(5)° for (II)]. In the crystal structure of (I), mol-ecules are linked by N-H?O hydrogen bonds, forming C(4) chains, which are augmented by weak C-H?O inter-actions. The structure is further stabilized by C-H?? contacts involving both of the aromatic rings.

A second monoclinic polymorph of 2-amino-4,6-dichloro-pyrimidine.

Project description:The title chloro-substituted 2-amino-pyrimidine, C(4)H(3)Cl(2)N(3), is a second monoclinic polymorph of this compound which crystallizes in the space group C2/c. The structure was previously reported [Clews & Cochran (1948 ▶). Acta Cryst. 1, 4-11] in the space group P21/a. There are two crystallographically independent mol-ecules in the asymmetric unit and each mol-ecule is planar. The dihedral angle between the two pyrimidine rings is 30.71 (12)°. In the crystal structure, mol-ecules are linked via N-H⋯N inter-molecular hydrogen bonds, forming infinite one-dimensional chains along the a axis. These hydrogen bonds generate R(2) (2)(8) ring motifs. The chains are stacked along the b axis.
