The synthesis of an analogue of the neuropharmacologically active peptide Pro-Leu-Gly-NH2 in which the Leu-Gly peptide bond has been replaced with a tetrazole moiety was carried out. The molecular and crystal structure of the tetrazole analogue Pro-Leuψ[CN4]Gly-NH2 was determined by X-ray diffraction and a comparison was made with the published X-ray structure of Pro-Leu-Gly-NH2. The tetrazole annular system turns out to be a good conformationally-restricted replacement for the cis-peptide bond in terms of bond lengths, bond angles and the ω torsion angle. The molecule was found to be folded at the -Leuψ[CN4]Gly- sequence, but it did not form the intramolecular N-H···O=C hydrogen bond characteristic of the type Vla β-bend conformation. In contrast to Pro-Leu-Gly-NH2, Pro-Leuψ[CN4]Gly-NH2 was found to be unable to enhance the binding of dopamine receptor agonists to the dopamine receptor.

A new ferrocene complex, 16-ferrocenylmethyl-3β-hydroxyestra-1,3,5(10)-trien-17-one dimethyl sulfoxide monosolvate, [Fe(C5H5)(C24H27O2)]·C2H6OS, has been synthesized and structurally characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction techniques. The molecule crystallizes in the space groupP21with one molecule of dimethyl sulfoxide. A hydrogen bond links the phenol group and the dimethyl sulfoxide O atom, with an O...O distance of 2.655 (5) Å. The ferrocene group is positioned in the β face of the estrone moiety, with an O—C—C—C torsion angle of 44.1 (5)°, and the carbonyl bond length of the hormone moiety is 1.216 (5) Å, typical of a C=O double bond. The average Fe—C bond length of the substituted Cp ring [Fe—C(Cp*)] is similar to that of the unsubstituted one [Fe—C(Cp)],i.e.2.048 (3)versus2.040 (12) Å. The structure of the complex is compared with those of estrone and ethoxymethylestrone.

Abstract 2-Hydroxy-5-methoxyphenylphosphonic acid (H3L1) and the complex [Cu(H2L1)2(H2O)2] were synthesized and characterized by IR spectroscopy, thermogravimetry, and X-ray diffraction analysis. The polyhedron of the copper atom is an axially elongated square bipyramid with oxygen atoms of phenolic and of monodeprotonated phosphonic groups at the base and oxygen atoms of water molecules at the vertices. The protonation constants of the H3L1 acid and the stability constants of its Cu2+ complexes in water were determined by potentiometric titration. The protonation constants of the acid in water are significantly influenced by the intramolecular hydrogen bond and the methoxy group. The H3L1 acid forms complexes CuL‒ and CuL24‒ with Cu2+ in water.

The crystal structure of natural diterpenoid alkaloid ranaconitine isolated from Aconitum sinomontanum Nakai has been determined by single crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. The crystal presents a monoclinic system, space group C2 with Z = 4, unit cell dimensions a = 30.972(19) Å, b = 7.688(5) Å, and c = 19.632(12) Å. Moreover, the intermolecular O–H···O hydrogen bonds and weak π-π interactions play a critical role in expanding the dimensionality.

Abstract The caesium phosphates Cs3(H1.5PO4)2(H2O)2 and Cs3(H1.5PO4)2 were obtained from aqueous solutions, and Cs4P2O7(H2O)4 and CsPO3 from solid state reactions, respectively. Cs3(H1.5PO4)2, Cs4P2O7(H2O)4, and CsPO3 were fully structurally characterized for the first time on basis of single-crystal X-ray diffraction data recorded at − 173 °C. Monoclinic Cs3(H1.5PO4)2 (Z = 2, C2/m) represents a new structure type and comprises hydrogen phosphate groups involved in the formation of a strong non-symmetrical hydrogen bond (accompanied by a disordered H atom over a twofold rotation axis) and a very strong symmetric hydrogen bond (with the H atom situated on an inversion centre) with symmetry-related neighbouring anions. Triclinic Cs4P2O7(H2O)4 (Z = 2, P$$\bar{1}$$ 1 ¯ ) crystallizes also in a new structure type and is represented by a diphosphate group with a P–O–P bridging angle of 128.5°. Although H atoms of the water molecules were not modelled, O···O distances point to hydrogen bonds of medium strengths in the crystal structure. CsPO3 is monoclinic (Z = 4, P21/n) and belongs to the family of catena-polyphosphates (MPO3)n with a repetition period of 2. It is isotypic with the room-temperature modification of RbPO3. The crystal structure of Cs3(H1.5PO4)2(H2O)2 was re-evaluated on the basis of single-crystal X-ray diffraction data at − 173 °C, revealing that two adjacent hydrogen phosphate anions are connected by a very strong and non-symmetrical hydrogen bond, in contrast to the previously described symmetrical bonding situation derived from room temperature X-ray diffraction data. In the four title crystal structures, coordination numbers of the caesium cations range from 7 to 12. Graphic abstract

Reactions of [Cp*IrCl2]2 (Cp*=η3-C5Me5) with [MgC4H6·2 THF]n at low temperature give [Cp*Ir(η4-C4H6)] together with [Cp*Ir(η3-C4H7)R] compounds, the latter being formed via C-H activation of solvent molecules RH (RH = benzene, toluene, anisole, thiophene, furane, N-methylpyrrole, pentane, cyclohexane. THF). In the case of pyrrole, C-N -activation occurs. The ratio of syn and anti isomers of the 1-methylallyl complexes as well as the sites of C-H activation of RH were investigated by NMR spectrometry. An enantiomorphous crystal of [Cp*Ir(η3-C4H7)C6Hs] was characterized by X-ray diffraction analysis which reveals trigonal planar coordination at the Ir atom and an exo, syn conformation of the 1-methylallyl ligand. A mechanism of the reaction which involves 16-electron intermediates is discussed. The corresponding system [Cp*RhCl2]2/butadienemagnesium/RH gives only [Cp*Rh(η4-C4H6)], and no C-H activation is observed.

By electrochemical oxidation of (n-Bu4N)[B6H5Hfac(C2H5)] in the presence of nitrite ions and of the base DBU in dichloromethane solution cis-[B6H4(C2H5)(NO2)]2- is formed. X-ray diffraction analysis has been performed on a single crystal of cis-(Ph4 As)2[B6H4(C2H5)(NO2)] (triclinic, space group P1; a = 10.673(4). b = 10.907(4), c = 21.237(4) A, α = 80.789(4), β = 83.117(4), γ = 66.548(2)°, Z = 2). The 11B NMR spectrum is consistent with a disubstituted octahedral B6 cage with local Cs symmetry. The IR and Raman spectra exhibit characteristic CH3, CH2, NO2, BN, BH and B6 vibrations

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.

The reaction of dithio-o-carborane with diphenyldiselenide (PhSeSePh) affords the title compound, closo-1,2-(PhSe)2C2B10H10 (1), which has been characterized by IR and NMR (1H, 11B) spectroscopy and by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The phenylselenyl groups are bonded to the cage carbon atoms of the o-carborane cluster with a Ccage-Ccage distance of 1.751(6) Å and an Se-Ccage- Ccage-Se torsion angle of 10.1(3)°. Compound 1 displays a violet emission on excitation with UV light. For comparison the photoluminescence of the known analog closo-1,2-(PhS)2C2B10H10 (2) was also studied
