Project description:Two novel crystal forms of bis-(oxonium) ethane-1,2-di-sulfonate, 2H3O-·C2H4O6S2 2-, are reported. Polymorph II has monoclinic (P21/n) symmetry, while the symmetry of form III is triclinic (P ). Both structures display extensive networks of O-H⋯O hydrogen bonds. While this network in Form II is similar to that observed for the previously reported Form I [Mootz & Wunderlich (1970 ▸). Acta Cryst. B26, 1820-1825; Sartori et al. (1994 ▸). Z. Naturforsch. 49, 1467-1472] and extends in all directions, in Form III it differs significantly, forming layers parallel to the ab plane. The sulfonate mol-ecule in all three forms adopts a nearly identical geometry. The other observed differences between the forms, apart from the hydrogen-bonding network, are observed in the crystal density and packing index.

Project description:A two-step synthesis of solasodine pivalate from diosgenin pivalate is described. The key transformation involves the reaction of diosgenin pivalate with benzyl carbamate (CbzNH?) promoted by TMSOTf. During the reaction the F-ring of the spiroketal moiety opens up with a simultaneous introduction of a Cbz-protected amino group in position 26. A one-pot deprotection of 26-amine with AcBr/BuOH followed by the N-cyclization affords solasodine pivalate in 45% overall yield.

Project description:Two new trigonal and tetra-gonal polymorphs of the title compound, iodido-tris-(tetra-hydro-furan-κO)lithium, are presented, which both include the isolated ion pair Li(THF)3 (+)·I(-). One Li-I ion contact and three tetra-hydro-furan (THF) mol-ecules complete the tetra-hedral coordination of the lithium cation. The three-dimensional arrangement in the two polymorphs differs notably. In the trigonal structure, the ion pair is located on a threefold rotation axis of space group P-3 and only one THF mol-ecule is present in the asymmetric unit. In the crystal, strands of ion pairs parallel to [001] are observed with an eclipsed conformation of the THF mol-ecules relative to the Li⋯I axis of two adjacent ion pairs. In contrast, the tetra-gonal polymorph shows a much larger unit cell in which all atoms are located on general positions of the space group I41 cd. The resulting three-dimensional arrangement shows helical chains of ion pairs parallel to [001]. Apart from van der Waals contacts, no remarkable inter-molecular forces are present between the isolated ion pairs in both structures.

Project description:Possible polymorphic forms of the chemotherapy drug, temozolomide were predicted from the ab initio and DFT methods. The lattice minimization via distributed multipole analysis was carried out for the hypothetical generated structures. A crystal with unit cell parameters close to the real one and of same space group was retrieved, with partly similar packing and interactions. The analysis of inter molecular interaction (through Hirshfeld surface) and electrostatic potential reveals the complementary sites in the molecule. The 26 predicted structures were analyzed with respect to two computed lattice energies and hydrogen-bond propensity. The lattice energy of the real crystal [EXP] packing ranked number 6 compared on the basis of DMACRYS software and number 3 on the basis of the total lattice energy issued from the Crystalexplorer17 software at the B3LYP/6-31G∗∗ level of theory. The molecule has two strong hydrogen bond donors and five strong acceptors. The predicted packings are stabilized by one or two strong N-H…O/N-H…N as well as weak C-H…O/C-H…N and H…π hydrogen bonds. While the real structure with Z' = 1, EXP, forms only one strong H-bond (N-H…O=C), several of the predicted packings form two strong H-bonds. Two predicted crystal packings have unit cell parameters close to the real structure, one of them shares several common intermolecular interactions.

Project description:The structure of ethyl 1-[N-(4-methyl-phen-yl)-N-(methyl-sulfon-yl)alan-yl]piperidine-4-carboxyl-ate, C19H28N2O5S, I, a compound of inter-est as activator of Ubiquitin C-terminal Hydro-lase-L1 (UCH-L1), was determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction (SCXRD) analysis. In order to find new activators, a derivative of compound I, namely, 1-[N-(4-methyl-phen-yl)-N-(methyl-sulfon-yl)alan-yl]piperidine-4-carb-oxy-lic acid, C17H24N2O5S, II, was studied. The synthesis and crystal structure are also reported. Despite being analogues, different crystal packings are observed. Compound II bears a carb-oxy-lic group, which favors a strong hydrogen bond. A polymorph risk assessment was carried out to study inter-actions in compound II.

Project description:The repair and replacement of damaged or diseased human bone tissue requires a stable interface between the orthopedic implant and living tissue. The ideal material should be both osteoconductive (promote bonding to bone) and osteoinductive (induce osteogenic differentiation of cells and generate new bone). Partially resorbable bioceramic materials with both properties are developed by expensive trial-and-error methods. Structure-reactivity relationships for predicting the osteoinductive properties of ceramics would significantly increase the efficiency of developing materials for bone tissue engineering. Here we propose the novel hypothesis that the crystal structure of a bioceramic controls the release rates, subsequent surface modifications due to precipitation of new phases, and thus, the concentrations of soluble factors, and ultimately, the attachment, viability and osteogenic differentiation of human Mesenchymal Stem Cells (hMSCs). To illustrate our hypothesis, we used two CaSiO3 polymorphs, pseudo-wollastonite (psw, ?-CaSiO3) and wollastonite (wol, ?-CaSiO3) as scaffolds for hMSC culture. Polymorphs are materials which have identical chemical composition and stoichiometry, but different crystal structures. We combined the results of detailed surface characterizations, including environmental Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) back-scattered imaging, and spot-analysis and 2D elemental mapping by SEM-Energy Dispersive X-ray (SEM-EDX), High Resolution Transmission Electron Microscopy (HRTEM) and surface roughness analysis; culture medium solution analyses; and molecular/genetic assays from cell culture. Our results confirmed the hypothesis that the psw polymorph, which has a strained silicate ring structure, is more osteoinductive than the wol polymorph, which has a more stable, open silicate chain structure. The observations could be attributed to easier dissolution (resorption) of psw compared to wol, which resulted in concentration profiles that were more osteoinductive for the former. Thus, we showed that crystal structure is a fundamental parameter to be considered in the intelligent design of pro-osteogenic, partially resorbable bioceramics.

Project description:The title compounds, 5-(2H-1,3-benzodioxol-5-yl)-N-cyclo-hexyl-penta-2,4-dienamide, C18H21NO3 (I), and 5-(2H-1,3-benzodioxol-5-yl)-1-(pyrrolidin-1-yl)penta-2,4-dien-1-one C16H17NO3 (II), are derivatives of piperine, which is known as a pungent component of pepper. Their geometrical parameters are similar to those of the three polymorphs of piperine, which indicate conjugation of electrons over the length of the mol-ecules. The extended structure of (I) features N-H?O amide hydrogen bonds, which generate C(4) [010] chains. The crystal of (II) features aromatic ?-? stacking, as for two of three known piperine polymorphs.

Project description:The title compounds consist of a bornane skeleton with attached acetamide, C12H21NO (±)-(1) {systematic name: (±)-N-[(1RS,2RS,4RS)-1,7,7-tri-methylbi-cyclo-[2.2.1]heptan-2-yl]acetamide}, and chloro-acetamide, C12H20ClNO (±)-(2) {systematic name: (±)-2-chloro-N-[(1RS,2RS,4RS)-1,7,7-tri-methylbi-cyclo-[2.2.1]heptan-2-yl]-acetamide}, functionalities to the 2-exo-position. The crystal structure of the first monoclinic polymorph of (±)-(1) has been reported previously [Ung et al. (2014 ▸). Monatsh. Chem. 145, 983-992]. Compound (±)-(1) crystallizes in the space group P21/n with two independent mol-ecules in the asymmetric unit, in contrast to the above-mentioned polymorph which crystallized in the space group C2/c with one mol-ecule in the asymmetric unit. In the title compounds, the bicyclic bornane moieties have normal geometries. In the crystals of both compounds, mol-ecules are linked by N-H⋯O hydrogen bonds, reinforced by C-H⋯O contacts, forming trans-amide chains propagating along the a-axis direction. In the case of compound (±)-(1), neighbouring chains are linked by further C-H⋯O contacts, forming double-chain ribbons along [100].

Project description:The title compound, [AuCl(C(18)H(21)P)], a monomeric two-coordinate gold(I) complex, has been characterized at 100 K as two distinct monoclinic polymorphs, one from a single crystal, (Is), and one from a pseudo-merohedrally twinned crystal, (It). The molecular structures in the two monoclinic [P2(1)/n for (Is) and P2(1)/c for (It)] polymorphs are similar; however, the packing arrangements in the two lattices differ considerably. The structure of (It) is pseudo-merohedrally twinned by a twofold rotation about the a* axis.

Project description:In the first of the compounds reported herein, namely 6'-ferrocenyl-6a'-nitro-6',6a',6b',7',9',11a'-hexa-hydro-2H-spiro-[ace-naphthyl-ene-1,11'-chromeno[3',4':3,4]pyrrolo-[1,2-c]thia-zol]-2-one, [Fe(C5H5)(C29H21N2O4S)], (I), the thia-zolidine ring adopts a twist conformation on the methine N-C atoms. In the second compound, viz. 6'-(4-methoxy-phen-yl)-6a'-nitro-6',6a',6b',7',9',11a'-hexa-hydro-2H-spiro-[ace-naphthyl-ene-1,11'-chromeno[3',4':3,4]pyrrolo-[1,2-c]thia-zol]-2-one, [Fe(C5H5)(C26H19N2O5S)], (II), the thia-zolidine ring adopts an envelope conformation with a methine C atom as the flap. In both compounds, the pyrrolidine ring adopts a twist conformation on the thia-zolidine and tetra-hydro-pyran C atoms. The mean planes of the thia-zolidine and pyrrolidine rings subtend angles of 67.30?(1) and 62.95?(7)° in (I) and (II), respectively, while the mean plane of the pyrrolidine ring makes dihedral angles of 76.53?(1) and 87.74?(7)° with the ace-naphthyl-ene ring system in (I) and (II), respectively. In both compounds, an intra-molecular C-H?O hydrogen bond forms an S(7) ring motif. In the crystal of (I), mol-ecules are linked via two different C-H?O hydrogen bonds, forming chains along [001] and [100]. In (II), they are linked through C-H?O hydrogen bonds, forming dimers with an R 2 (2)(10) ring motif while C-H?? inter-actions link the mol-ecules in a head-to-tail fashion, forming chains along the a-axis direction.
