The non-covalent interactions have an extensive impact on the physical, chemical and biological activity of materials. A new anilinium derivative, 4-bromoanilinium perchlorate (4BAP), has been synthesized, and its structure was determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. The quantum chemical calculation tools are implemented to explore the electronic and structural properties of 4BAP. The lattice parameters of the crystal structure are a = 5.0752 (8), b = 7.0540 (11), c = 13.5360 (2) Å, α = 91.073 (5)°, β = 90.991 (5)° and γ = 105.052 (5)°, with 2 molecules per unit cell (Z = 2). In the crystal structure of 4BAP, N-H⋯O hydrogen bond interactions dominate. Along the b-axis, the molecules strongly interact through N1-H3⋯O4 hydrogen bonds, and the hydrogen bonding links the molecules into extended chains running along the b-axis. The more delocalized electrons around the aromatic ring may influence the nonlinear activity of the materials. NBO results suggested more electron delocalization around the aromatic ring, which suggests that the title molecule could be used for nonlinear optical applications. The feasible reactivity tendency was determined from the frontier molecular orbital (FMO) analysis. The H...H interactions account for 9.8% of the surface area, and the crystal structure can accommodate a higher fraction of hydrogen atoms. The calculated values of dipole moment, polarizability and first-order hyperpolarizability are 13.5028 D, 20.504 × 10−24 esu and 2.1218 × 10−30 esu, respectively.

Abstract5-(Adamantan-1-yl)-3-[(4-chlorobenzyl)sulfanyl]-4-methyl-4H-1,2,4-triazole (4) was identified as a potential 11β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type 1 (11β-HSD1) inhibitor and this paper describes the in-depth structural analysis thereof. Compound 4 was synthesized in a 92% yield and its 3D-structure confirmed by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. Hirshfeld surface analysis indicated that H…H, C-H…C, C-H…Cl and especially C-H…N hydrogen bond interactions are the primary contributors to the intermolecular stabilisation in the crystal. In order to explore the properties of 4, free from the influence of the crystal field, density functional theory (DFT) calculations were conducted. Results indicated that the DFT optimized geometry of 4 produced a conformer (4a) that is significantly different from the crystal structure. Further experiments confirmed that the crystal structure is not the absolute minimum conformation. This indicated that the crystal packing forces has significantly influenced the conformation thereof. Frontier molecular orbital energies and net atomic charges were also calculated to elucidate the electronic properties of 4a. These results provided insight into areas of the molecule that may present with the ability to form binding interactions at the 11β-HSD1 active site. Molecular docking experiments revealed important intermolecular interactions between 4a and 11β-HSD1. These results indicate that 4 may be considered for further drug design endeavors.

The crystal structure of pomalidomide Form I has been solved and refined using synchrotron X-ray powder diffraction data and optimized using density functional theory techniques. Pomalidomide Form I crystallizes in the space group P-1 (#2) with a = 7.04742(9), b = 7.89103(27), c = 11.3106(6) Å, α = 73.2499(13), β = 80.9198(9), γ = 88.5969(6)°, V = 594.618(8) Å3, and Z = 2. The crystal structure is characterized by the parallel stacking of planes parallel to the bc-plane. Hydrogen bonds link the molecules into double layers also parallel to the bc-plane. Each of the amine hydrogen atoms acts as a donor to a carbonyl group in an N–H⋯O hydrogen bond, but only two of the four carbonyl groups act as acceptors in such hydrogen bonds. Other carbonyl groups participate in C–H⋯O hydrogen bonds. The powder pattern has been submitted to ICDD® for inclusion in the Powder Diffraction File™ (PDF®).

Abinitio molecular orbital calculations are reported for several cyclic and acyclic sulfones. The geometries of XSO2Y, where X, Y = H, F, or CH3 are optimized at the STO-3G* level. Similar calculations are reported for the smallest cyclic sulfone, thiirane-1,1 -dioxide, as well as the corresponding sulfoxide, thiirane-1-oxide, and the parent sulfide, thiirane. Where comparison with experiment is possible, the agreement is satisfactory. In order to consider the possibility of substantial differences between axial and equatorial S—O bonds in the gas phase, as observed in the crystal structure of 5H,8H-dibenzo[d,f][1,2]-dithiocin-1,1-dioxide, STO-3G* calculations are reported for a six-membered ring, thiane-1,1-dioxide, and a model eight-membered ring. Limited geometry optimization of the axial and equatorial S—O bonds in the chair conformations of the six- and eight-membered rings leads to bond lengths of 1.46 Å with the difference being less than 0.01 Å.

In this work, a comprehensive investigation of the salicylideneaniline derivatives is carried out using density functional theory to determine their linear and non-linear optical properties. Geometry optimizations, for gas and solvent phases, of the tautomers (enol and keto forms) are calculated using B3LYP levels with 6–31G (d,p) basis set . An intramolecular proton transfer, for 1SA-E and 2SA-E, is performed by a PES scan process at the B3LYP/6-31G (d,p) level. The optical properties are determined and show that they have extremely high nonlinear optical properties. In addition, the RDG analysis, MEP, and gap energy are calculated. The low energy gap value indicates the possibility of intramolecular charge transfer. The frontier molecular orbital calculations clearly show the inverse relationship of HOMO–LUMO gap with the first-order hyperpolarizability (β = 59.6471 × 10-30 esu), confirming that the salicylideneaniline derivatives can be used as attractive future NLO materials. Therefore, the reactive sites are predicted using MEP and the visible absorption maxima are analyzed using a theoretical UV–Vis spectrum. Natural bond orbitals are used to investigate the stability, charge delocalization, and intramolecular hydrogen bond.

2-(Adamantan-1-yl)-2H-isoindole-1-carbonitrile (1) has been identified as a neurobiological fluorescent ligand that may be used to develop receptor and enzyme binding affinity assays. Compound 1 was synthesised using an optimised microwave irradiation reaction and crystallised from ethanol. Crystallization occurred in the orthorhombic space group P212121 with unit cell parameters: a = 6.4487(12) Å, b = 13.648(3) Å, c = 16.571(3) Å, V = 1458(5) Å3, Z = 4. Density functional theory (DFT) (B3LYP/6-311++G (d,p)) calculations of 1 were carried out. Results showed that the optimised geometry is similar to the crystal structure parameters with a root-mean-squared deviation of 0.143 Å. Frontier molecular orbital energies and net atomic charges are discussed with a focus on potential biological interactions. Docking experiments within the active site of the neuronal nitric oxide synthase (nNOS) protein crystal structure were carried out and analysed. Important binding interactions between the DFT optimised structure and amino acids within the nNOS active site were identified that explain the strong NOS binding affinity reported. Fluorescent properties of 1 were studied using aprotic solvents of different polarities. Compound 1 showed the highest fluorescence intensity in polar solvents with excitation and emission values of 336 nm and 380 nm, respectively.

The crystal structure of atropine sulfate monohydrate has been solved and refined using synchrotron X-ray powder diffraction data and optimized using density functional techniques. Atropine sulfate monohydrate crystallizes in space group P21/n (#14) with a = 19.2948(5), b = 6.9749(2), c = 26.9036(5) Å, β = 94.215(2)°, V = 3610.86(9) Å3, and Z = 4. Each of the two independent protonated nitrogen atoms participates in a strong hydrogen bond to the sulfate anion. Each of the two independent hydroxyl groups acts as a donor in a hydrogen bond to the sulfate anion, but only one of the water molecule hydrogen atoms acts as a hydrogen bond donor to the sulfate anion. The hydrogen bonds are all discrete but link the cations, anion, and water molecule along [101]. Although atropine and hyoscyamine (atropine is racemic hyoscyamine) crystal structures share some features, such as hydrogen bonding and phenyl–phenyl packing, the powder patterns show that the structures are very different. The powder pattern for atropine sulfate monohydrate has been submitted to ICDD for inclusion in the Powder Diffraction File™.
