In the title compound, C18H21N3O, the dihedral angle between the pyridine and benzene rings is 30.53 (7)° and the C—C=N—C torsion angle is −170.6 (2)°. An intramolecular N—H...N hydrogen bond generates anS(6) ring. In the crystal, very weak C—H...O hydrogen bonds link the molecules intoC(8) [101] chains. Thetert-butyl methyl groups are disordered over two sets of sites in a 0.783 (4):0.217 (4) ratio.

In the crystal structure of the title compound, C10H12N2OS, the conformation of the two N—H bonds areantito each other. The amide C=O and the C=S are are alsoantito each other. The N—H bond adjacent to the benzene ring issynto them-methyl groups. The dihedral angle between the benzene ring and the side chain [mean plane of atoms C—C(O)N—C—N; maximum deviation 0.029 (2) Å] is 14.30 (7)°. There is an intramolecular N—H...O hydrogen bond generating anS(6) ring motif. In the crystal, the molecules are linkedviaN—H...) hydrogen bonds, forming chains propagating along [001]. The S atom is disordered and was refined using a split model [occupancy ratio 0.56 (4):0.44 (4)].

The crystal structure of 3,4,7,8-tetramethylglycoluril (5) was determined by X-ray diffraction. The structure reveals a hydrogen-bonding motif in the crystal lattice that differs from that present in related glycolurils. The two sides of each molecule form part of two independent, but parallel, infinite helical chains. These chains are formed by the NH donor and C==O acceptor on one side of a glycoluril molecule, forming H-bonds to two different molecules at adjacent positions within the helix. On the other side of the same molecule, a similar motif generates another helix of opposite helicity to the first. The molecule has a crystallographic plane of symmetry through the two bridgehead carbon atoms and the two bridgehead methyl groups, which are syn-periplanar. Thus, 5 is similar to 3,4-dimethylglycoluril (3), but differs from some glycolurils, where there is a significant dihedral angle between the two bridgehead-to-bridgehead substituent bonds. Bond lengths and angles in 5 resemble those reported for 3, but bond lengths around the bridgehead positions are slightly lengthened relative to 3.Key words: glycoluril, 1,2,5,8-tetramethyl-2,6,7,8-tetraazabicyclo[3.3.0]octane-3,7-dione, X-ray diffraction, crystal structure, hydrogen-bond array.

Previous work on modification of the collagen lattice, presented at these meetings, has served to confirm the Ramachandran proposal for the structure of this important protein, together with information on the lengths and tensile strengths of these bonds, including hydrogen bonds, hydrophobe bonds, and Vander Waals attractions. Rat tail tendons were suspended in 2 M aqueous solutions of dimethylsulfoxide, acetone, trimethylamineoxide and 1,4-cyclohexanedione, all of which showed evidence of ligation by expansion of the collagen lattice and refinement of the 100 spot in the x-ray diffraction pattern run by rotation on the collagen fiber axis. In the case of trimethylamineoxide and cyclohexanedione, oriented crystallization also occurred, with the long direction of the molecule in the plane perpendicular to the fiber axis of collagen. With the monofunctional ligands, the -C=0 group forms a hydrogen bond to the N-H group in the Ramachandran standard revised model, leaving the methyl groups to form the hydrophobe bond.

AbstractThe adducts methylthiourea:1,4-dioxane (2:1) (1) and 1,1-dimethylthiourea:morpholine (1:1) (2) were prepared and their crystal structures determined. In 1, hydrogen bonding involving the methylthiourea molecules leads to the formation of ${\rm{R}}_2^2(8)$ rings and thence to molecular ribbons parallel to [110]. The dioxane molecules accept hydrogen bonds from the remaining NH groups, and their inversion symmetry means that they connect adjacent methylthiourea ribbons, forming a layer structure parallel to (11̅1). In the packing of 2, dimethylthiourea dimers cannot link to each other because of the blocking effect of their methyl groups, but instead are linked indirectly via morpholine molecules, the NH groups of which are simultaneously hydrogen bond acceptors from the remaining NH function of dimethylthiourea and donors towards the sulfur atom of a neighbouring dimer. The overall effect is to form broad ribbons parallel to the a axis, with the morpholine molecules occupying the peripheral positions. The morpholine oxygen atom of 2 is not involved in classical hydrogen bonds.

The title compound, C19H12Cl2N2O4S3, is related to a ditosylated 2-iminobenzothiazole with the two methyl groups on the two phenyl rings replaced by chlorine. There is a weak intramolecular π–π contact between the two phenyl rings, with a centroid-to-centroid distance of 4.004 (2) Å. The dihedral angle between the rings is 9.96 (13)°. An intramolecular C—H...O hydrogen bond stabilizes the molecular conformation.

The title compound, C17H13BrO3S, was prepared by alkaline hydrolysis of ethyl 2-[5-(4-bromophenyl)-3-methylsulfanyl-1-benzofuran-2-yl]acetate. There are two symmetry-independent molecules in the asymmetric unit. The 4-bromophenyl rings are rotated out of the benzofuran planes, with dihedral angles for the two molecules of 50.22 (8) and 35.4 (1)°. The methyl groups of the methylsulfanyl substituent are almost perpendicular to the plane of the benzofuran fragment [99.5 (2) and 100.8 (2)°] and are slightly tilted towards it. The crystal structure is stabilized by a C—H...O hydrogen bond and a Br...O halogen bond [Br...O = 3.284 (2) Å], and by inversion-related intermolecular O—H...O hydrogen bonds between the carboxyl groups from two symmetry-independent molecules.
