<p>Protein folding is strictly related to the determination of the backbone dihedral angles and depends on the information contained in the amino acid sequence as well as on the hydrophobic effect. To date, the type of information embedded in the amino acid sequence has not yet been revealed. The present study deals with these problematics and aims to furnish a possible explanation of the information contained in the amino acid sequence, showing and reporting rules to calculate the backbone dihedral angles φ. The study is based on the development of mechanical forces once specific chemical interactions are established among the side chain of the residues in a polypeptide chain. It aims to furnish a theoretical approach to predict backbone dihedral angles which, in the future, may be applied to computational developments focused on the prediction of polypeptide structures.</p>

The indazole ring system of the title compound, C17H18ClN3O4S, is almost planar (r.m.s. deviation = 0.0113 Å) and forms dihedral angles of 32.22 (8) and 57.5 (3)° with the benzene ring and the mean plane through the 4-ethoxy group, respectively. In the crystal, molecules are connected by pairs of N—H...O hydrogen bonds into inversion dimers, which are further linked by π–π interactions between the diazole rings [intercentroid distance = 3.4946 (11) Å], forming chains parallel to [101].

In the title compound, C16H22N2OS2, the S atom of the thiadiazole ring and the attached methyl groups are disordered over two orientations with a refined site-occupancy ratio of 0.641 (11):0.359 (11). The thiadiazole ring is in a twist conformation in both disorder components. The mean plane through the thiadiazole ring makes dihedral angles of 77.39 (8) (major component) and 67.45 (11)° (minor component) with the benzene ring. Intramolecular C—H...N interactions generate twoS(6) ring motifs. In the crystal, molecules are linked by C—H...O hydrogen bonds into zigzag chains parallel to thebaxis.

The title compound, C12H11N3O2, is a second monoclinic polymorph (P21, withZ′ = 4) of the previously reported monoclinic (P21/c, withZ′ = 2) form [Akhmad Aznanet al.(2010).Acta Cryst.E66, o2400]. Four independent molecules comprise the asymmetric unit, which have the common features of asyndisposition of the pyridine N atom and the toluene ring, and an intramolecular amine–nitro N—H...O hydrogen bond. The differences between molecules relate to the dihedral angles between the rings which range from 2.92 (19) to 26.24 (19)°. The geometry-optimized structure [B3LYP level of theory and 6–311 g+(d,p) basis set] has the same features except that the entire molecule is planar. In the crystal, the three-dimensional architecture is consolidated by a combination of C—H...O, C—H...π, nitro-N—O...π and π–π interactions [inter-centroid distances = 3.649 (2)–3.916 (2) Å].

In the title compound, C10H6N4O5S, the mean plane of the non-H atoms of the central amide fragment C—N—C(=O)—C [r.m.s. deviation = 0.0294 Å] forms dihedral angles of 12.48 (7) and 46.66 (9)° with the planes of the thiazole and benzene rings, respectively. In the crystal, molecules are linked by N—H...O hydrogen bonds, forming chains along [001]. In addition, weak C—H...O hydrogen bonds link these chains, forming a two-dimensional network, containingR44(28) ring motifs parallel to (100).

In the title compound, C11H10BrNO3, two independent molecules (AandB) crystallize in the asymmetric unit. The dihedral angles between the mean planes of the 4-bromophenyl ring and amide group are 24.8 (7) in moleculeAand 77.1 (6)° in moleculeB. The mean plane of the methylidene group is further inclined by 75.6 (4) in moleculeAand 72.5 (6)° in moleculeBfrom that of the amide group. In the crystal, N—H...O hydrogen bonds formed by amide groups and O—H...O hydrogen bonds formed by carboxylic acid groups are observed and supported additionally by weak C—H...O interactions between the methylidene and amide groups. Together, these link the molecules into chains of dimers along [110] and formR22(8) graph-set motifs.
