Methanol extraction of the ground seeds of Uncaria Gambier Roxb. followed by chromatography afforded a crystalline C30H38O10 terpene. This has been shown by X-ray analysis to be 7α-acetoxydihydronomilin. The crystals are orthorhombic, P212121, a = 13.158(2), b = 17.092(2), c = 12.689(2) Å, Z = 4, dx = 1.300, do = 1.300 g cm−3. The structure has been determined by the direct method and Fourier syntheses, and refined by block-diagonal least-squares to R = 0.042 for 2621 observed reflexions. The molecule contains a seven-membered lactone ring A, three six-membered rings B, C, D, a three-membered ring E, a furan ring F, and two acetate groups. A and B are chair, C is twist-boat, D is 1,3-diplanar, while E and F are planar. The A/B, A/C, C/D junctions are trans, D/E is cis, and F is linked to D by an equatorial C—C bond. The two acetate groups are in axial positions on A and B and are cis to each other. The O atom forming the apex of the three-membered ring is wedged between two H atoms and their parent C atoms at short intramolecular distances O … H = 2.28(2) and 2.28(3), and O … C = 2.623(3) and 2.668(4) Å. No intermolecular hydrogen bonding is indicated.

N,N′,N″,N‴-Tetraisopropylpyrophosphoramide 1 is a pyrophosphoramide with documented butyrylcholinesterase inhibition, a property shared with the more widely studied octamethylphosphoramide (Schradan). Unlike Schradan, 1 is a solid at room temperature making it one of a few known pyrophosphoramide solids. The crystal structure of 1 was determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction and compared with that of other previously described solid pyrophosphoramides. The pyrophosphoramide discussed in this study was synthesised by reacting iso-propyl amine with pyrophosphoryl tetrachloride under anhydrous conditions. A unique supramolecular motif was observed when compared with previously published pyrophosphoramide structures having two different intermolecular hydrogen bonding synthons. Furthermore, the potential of a wider variety of supramolecular structures in which similar pyrophosphoramides can crystallise was recognised. Proton (1H) and Phosphorus 31 (31P) Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) spectroscopy, infrared (IR) spectroscopy, mass spectrometry (MS) were carried out to complete the analysis of the compound.

The crystal structure of [Pt(diethylenetriamine)(guanosine)](ClO4)2 has been determined by X-ray diffraction. The crystals are orthorhombic, space group P212121, with a = 12.486(6), b = 13.444(7), c = 14.678(11) Å, and Z = 4. The structure was refined by block-diagonal least-squares analysis to a conventional R factor of 0.050 and a weighted Rw = 0.045.The coordination around the platinum atom is square planar. Guanosine is bonded to platinum through N(7). The purine planar ring makes an angle of 62.7° with the platinum coordination plane. The structure is stabilized by hydrogen bonding.

Phosphorothionic triamide SP(NH2)3 is obtained by slow addition of SPCl3 dissolved in dry CH2Cl2 to a satured solution of NH3 in CH2Cl2 at —50°C. Ammonium chloride is removed from the resulting precipitate by treatment with HNEt2 followed by extraction with CH2Cl2. Coarse crystalline SP(NH2)3 is obtained after recrystallization from dry methanol. The crystal structure of SP(NH2)3 has been determined by single crystal X-ray methods (Pbca; a = 922.3(1), b = 953.8(1), c = 1058.4(2) pm, Z = 8). In the crystals the molecules show non-crystallographic point symmetry C8. The P—S bond (195.4(1) pm) is slightly longer than in SPCl3. From P—N bond lengths of about 166 pm a significant electrostatic strengthening of the P—N single bonds is assumed. Weak intermolecular hydrogen bonding interactions (N —H · · · N ≥ 329.5 pm; N — H · · · S ≥ 348.3 pm) are observed.Investigation of thermal properties shows a melting temperature of 115°C for SP(NH2)3. According to combined DTA/TG and MS investigations above this temperature the compound decomposes by evolution of H2S and NH3 to yield amorphous phosphorus(V)nitride.

AbstractA discrete heterotrinuclear complex [{Ni2LDy(OAc)3(CH3OH)}2] · 2CH3OH · 3CH2Cl2, with a naphthalenediol-based acyclic bis(salamo) ligand H4L, has been synthesized and structurally characterized using elemental analyses, IR, UV/Vis and fluorescence spectra and single crystal X-ray diffraction. The crystal structure shows two crystallographically independent but chemically identical molecules (molecules I and II). All the Ni(II) atoms are hexa-coordinated with slightly distorted octahedral geometries. The central Dy atoms are nona-coordinated with slightly distorted tricapped trigonal prism geometries. An infinite 3D supramolecular structure is formed via intermolecular hydrogen bonding and C–H…π interactions.

The natural compound dendocarbin A, C15H22O3, is a sesquiterpene lactone isolated for the first time fromDrimys winterifor var chilensis. The compound crystallizes in the orthorhombic space groupP212121and its X-ray crystal structure confirmed theS/Rcharacter of the chiral centres at C-5/C-10 and C-9/C-11, respectively. The α-OH group at C-11 was found to be involved in intermolecular hydrogen bonding, defining chains along the <100> 21screw axis.

The crystal structure of zerumbone, C15H22O, extracted from the rhizomes of Zingiber zerumbet Smith, has been determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction at 295(1) K and refined by least squares to a residual of 0.051 for 925 'observed' reflections. Crystals are monoclinic, space group P21/c, a 9.036(3), b 9.712(5), c 15.643(6) �, β 97.19(3)�, Z = 4. Although the molecule has no chiral centre, the presence of the three trans double bonds confers considerable distortion and rigidity on the eleven-membered ring and renders the whole molecule chiral and potentially resolvable.

The complexes oxo (1,1,8,8-tetraethyl-3,6-diazaoctane-1,8-dithiolato)rhenium[ ReO ( tedadt )], oxo (1,1,8,8-tetraethyl-4,4-dimethyl-3,6-diazaoctane-1,8-dithiolato)rhenium [ ReO ( tedmdadt )] and (1,1,4,4,8,8-hexamethyl-3,6-diazaoctane-1,8-dithiolato) oxorhenium [ ReO ( hmdadt )] were prepared. The crystal structure of the complex ReO ( tedadt ) was determined by X-ray crystallography to be a hydrogen-bonded dimer . This is the first example of intermolecular hydrogen bonding in rhenium diamino dithiolate ( dadt ) complexes.

The structure of [(t-BuP)3Cr(CO)5], C17CrH27O5P3, has been determined by single crystal X-ray techniques, solved by ‘direct methods', and refined to R = 0.048, wR = 0.050 for 3657 reflections by blocked least squares. The compound crystallizes in the space group P 21/c with a = 1664.9 pm, b = 916.5 pm , c = 3089.8 pm, β= 91.45° and Z = 8 formula units. The structure consists of two crystallographically independent but structurally nearly identical mononuclear [(t-BuP)3Cr(CO)5] complexes with the three-membered ring (t-BuP)3 as an unidentate σ-donor ligand. Compared to the free molecule (t-BuP)3 the cyclophosphane ligand is slightly distorted on account of its coordination to the Cr(CO)5-group.

The structure of the title compound has been determined from diffractometer data recorded, initially, at 294 K and, subsequently, at 168 K. Crystals are triclinic, space group P1 with (168 K values in square brackets) a 16.080(2) [15.934(2)], b 15.958(2) [15.880(2)], c 8.443(2)Ǻ [8.233(1)Ǻ], α 85.55(1) [86.04(1)],β 82.65(1) [82.56(1)],γ 85.00(1)° [84.73(1)°], and contain two actamycin and two solvent ( tetrahydrofuran ) molecules in the asymmetric scattering unit. The structure was solved with DIRDIF and refined by block-diagonal least-squares analysis (of 168 K data) to R 0.049 ( wR 0.069) for 5640 reflections and 940 refined parameters. Molecules of actamycin (30-dechloro-2-demethyl-30-hydroxynaphthomycin A) exhibit the same relative stereochemistry (8S*,9S*,15S*,18S*,19S*,20S*) and double-bond configuration (2Z,4Z,6E,12E,16E,21E) as reported for crystalline 25-O-methylnaphthomycin A iminomethyl ether but are quite differently conformed. The two crystallographically inequivalent actamycin molecules in the present structure also exhibit substantial conformational (torsion angle) differences due, apparently, to the effects of intermolecular hydrogen bonding. Consideration of chiroptical data defines the absolute configuration of actamycin as 8S,9S,15S,18S,19S,20S and the helicity as P, as in naphthomycin A.
