Hydroxyl stretching frequency data upon 1-dimethylamino-3,3-diphenylhexan-4-ol and related amino-alcohols are reported which give evidence of unusually strong intramolecular hydrogen bonding between the hydroxy and t-amino functions of these compounds. In corresponding salts, concentration independent vOH bands, typical of hydrogen bonded species, also occur and a bonded system comprising anion, OH, and N+H functions is proposed together with probable methadol base and salt conformations.

Crystal structure determination of doxorubicin nitrate, (DoxH)NO3, systematic name (7S,9S)-7-{[(2R,4S,5S,6S)-4-azaniumyl-5-hydroxy-6-methyloxan-2-yl]oxy}-6,9,11-trihydroxy-9-(2-hydroxyacetyl)-4-methoxy-8,10-dihydro-7H-tetracen-5,12-dione nitrate, shows two formula units present in the asymmetric unit. In the crystal lattice, hydrogen-bonded pairs of (DoxH+) cations and segregation of the aglycone and sugar moieties are observed. Inspection of molecular overlays reveals that the conformation of (DoxH)NO3resembles that of DNA-intercalated, but not of protein-docked (DoxH)+. The structure was refined as a two-component twin.

A computational study at correlated levels of theory is reported to address the structures and energetics of transient radicals produced by hydrogen atom abstraction from C-1, C-2, C-3, C-4, C-5, O-1, O-3, and O-5 positions in 2-deoxyribofuranose in the gas phase and in aqueous solution. In general, the carbon-centered radicals are found to be thermodynamically and kinetically more stable than the oxygen-centered ones. The most stable gas-phase radical, 2-deoxyribofuranos-5-yl (5), is produced by H-atom abstraction from C-5 and stabilized by an intramolecular hydrogen bond between the O-5 hydroxy group and O-1. The order of radical stabilities is altered in aqueous solution due to different solvation free energies. These prefer conformers that lack intramolecular hydrogen bonds and expose O-H bonds to the solvent. Carbon-centered deoxyribose radicals can undergo competitive dissociations by loss of H atoms, OH radical, or by ring cleavages that all require threshold dissociation or transition state energies >100 kJ mol-1. This points to largely non-specific dissociations of 2-deoxyribose radicals when produced by exothermic hydrogen atom abstraction from the saccharide molecule. Oxygen-centered 2-deoxyribose radicals show only marginal thermodynamic and kinetic stability and are expected to readily fragment upon formation.
