The crystal structure of the iodide salt of a quaternary ammonium derivative of cholic acid having a naphthalene group attached to the 3rd position of the steroid nucleus through an amide bond ([3,5,7,12]-3-(2-naphthyloylamino)-7,12-dihydroxycholan-24-triethylammonium iodide) has been resolved. The compound crystallizes in the P212121 orthorhombic space group (a/Å = 10.9458(3); b/Å = 12.1625(3); c/Å = 28.4706(7)). The lateral chain adopts a fully extended tttt conformation because the quaternary ammonium group cannot participate in the formation of hydrogen bonds. The iodide ion is involved in the formation of hydrogen bonds as well as the amide group and the two steroid hydroxy groups. Hirshfeld surface analysis confirms that these contacts, as well as the electrostatic interactions, stabilize the structure. The helixes around the 21 screw axis are right-handed ones.

Abstract The crystal structure of Trimethyl(4-oxopentyl)ammonium-chloride ([(CH3)3N+-(CH2)3COCH3]Cl-) (1) was determined by an X-ray structure analysis. 1 crystallizes in the orthorhombic space group P212121 with a = 10.440 (3), b = 14.600 (9), c = 6.804 (9) Å and with four formula units per unit cell. The structure was solved by a Patterson and a successive Fourier synthesis. The least squares refinement yielded an R-value of 0.064 for 1077 observed reflections. The cation of 1 is derived from acetylcholine by replacement of the ester oxygen with a CH2 group. It shows a potent nicotinic activity and a significant difference in conformation as compared with acetylcholine. In the crystal structure the anions are oriented stereospecifically with respect to the tetrahedron of the quaternary ammonium group. The geometry of two triangles formed by the quaternary nitrogen atom, the oxygen atom of the carbonyl group, and by either of the two anions nearest to the quaternary ammonium group is characteristic for the nicotinic activity of 1.

The here crystallized oxamide was previously characterized as an unsolvated species [Jímenez-Pérezet al.(2000).J. Organomet. Chem.614–615, 283–293], and is now reported with methanol as a solvent of crystallization, C30H44N2O4·CH3OH, in a different space group. The introduction of the solvent influences neither the molecular symmetry of the oxamide, which remains centrosymmetric, nor the molecular conformation. However, the unsolvated molecule crystallized as an ordered system, while many parts of the solvated crystal are disordered. The hydroxy group in the oxamide is disordered over two chemically equivalent positions, with occupancies 0.696 (4):0.304 (4); onetert-butyl group is disordered by rotation about the C—C bond, and was modelled with three sites for each methyl group, each one with occupancy 1/3. Finally, the methanol solvent, which lies on a twofold axis, is disordered by symmetry. The disorder affecting hydroxy groups and the solvent of crystallization allows the formation of numerous supramolecular motifs using four hydrogen bonds, with N—H and O—H groups as donors and the oxamide and methanol molecule as acceptors.

The title compound, C6H12O6, was crystallized from an aqueous solution of equimolar mixture of D- and L-fructose (1,3,4,5,6-pentahydroxyhexan-2-one,arabino-hexulose or levulose), and it was confirmed that D-fructose (or L-fructose) formed β-pyranose with a2C5(or5C2) conformation. In the crystal, two O—H...O hydrogen bonds between the hydroxy groups at the C-1 and C-3 positions, and at the C-4 and C-5 positions connect homochiral molecules into a column along theaaxis. The columns are linked by other O—H...O hydrogen bonds between D- and L-fructose molecules, forming a three-dimensional network.

Abstract The 79Br and 127I NQR spectra were investigated for 1,2-diammoniumethane dibromide, -diiodide, 1,3-diammoniumpropane dibromide, -diiodide, piperazinium dibromide monohydrate, and piperazinium monoiodide in the temperature range 77 ≦ T/K ≦ 420. Phase transitions could be observed for the three iodides. The temperatures for the phase transitions are: 400 K and 404 K for 1,2-diammoniumethane diiodide, 366 K for 1,3-diammoniumpropane diiodide, and 196 K for piperazinium monoiodide.The crystal structures were determined for the piperazinium compounds. Piperazinium dibromide monohydrate crystallizes monoclinic, space group C2/c, with a= 1148.7 pm, 0 = 590.5 pm, c= 1501.6pm, β = 118.18°, and Z = 4. For piperazinium monoiodide the orthorhombic space group Pmn 21 was found with a = 958.1 pm, b = 776.9 pm, c = 989.3 pm, Z = 4. Hydrogen bonds N - H ... X with X = Br, I were compared with literature data.

The crystal structure of L-serine has been determined at room temperature at pressures between 0.3 and 4.8 GPa. The structure of this phase (hereafter termed L-serine-I), which consists of the molecules in their zwitterionic tautomer, is orthorhombic, space group P212121. The least compressible cell dimension (c), corresponds to chains of head-to-tail NH...carboxylate hydrogen bonds. The most compressible direction is along b, and the pressure-induced distortion in this direction takes the form of closing up voids in the middle of R-type hydrogen-bonded ring motifs. This occurs by a change in the geometry of hydrogen-bonded chains connecting the hydroxyl groups of the —CH2OH side chains. These hydrogen bonds are the longest conventional hydrogen bonds in the system at ambient pressure, having an O...O separation of 2.918 (4) Å and an O...O...O angle of 148.5 (2)°; at 4.8 GPa these parameters are 2.781 (11) and 158.5 (7)°. Elsewhere in the structure one NH...O interaction reaches an N...O separation of 2.691 (13) Å at 4.8 GPa. This is amongst the shortest of this type of interaction to have been observed in an amino acid crystal structure. Above 4.8 GPa the structure undergoes a single-crystal-to-single-crystal phase transition to a hitherto uncharacterized polymorph, which we designate L-serine-II. The OH...OH hydrogen-bonded chains of L-serine-I are replaced in L-serine-II by shorter OH...carboxyl interactions, which have an O...O separation of 2.62 (2) Å. This phase transition occurs via a change from a gauche to an anti conformation of the OH group, and a change in the NCαCO torsion angle from −178.1 (2)° at 4.8 GPa to −156.3 (10)° at 5.4 GPa. Thus, the same topology appears in both crystal forms, which explains why it occurs from one single-crystal form to another. The transition to L-serine-II is also characterized by the closing-up of voids which occur in the centres of other R-type motifs elsewhere in the structure. There is a marked increase in CH...O hydrogen bonding in both phases relative to L-serine-I at ambient pressure.

The crystal structure of perdeuterated methanol monoammoniate, CD3OD·ND3, has been solved from neutron powder diffraction data collected at 4.2 and 180 K. The crystal structure is orthorhombic, space groupPbca(Z= 8), with unit-cell dimensionsa= 11.02320 (7),b= 7.66074 (6),c= 7.59129 (6) Å,V= 641.053 (5) Å3[ρcalc= 1162.782 (9) kg m−3] at 4.2 K, anda= 11.21169 (5),b= 7.74663 (4),c= 7.68077 (5) Å,V= 667.097 (4) Å3[ρcalc= 1117.386 (7) kg m−3] at 180 K. The crystal structure was determined byab initiomethods from the powder data; atomic coordinates and anisotropic displacement parameters were subsequently refined by the Rietveld method toRp< 3% at both temperatures. The crystal comprises a sheet-like structure in thebccrystallographic plane, consisting of strongly hydrogen bonded elements; these sheets are stacked along theaaxis, and adjacent sheets are linked by what may be comparatively weak C—D...O hydrogen bonds. Within the strongly bonded sheet structure, ND3molecules are tetrahedrally coordinated by the hydroxy moieties of the methanol molecule, accepting one hydrogen bond (O—D...N) of length ∼1.75 Å, and donating three hydrogen bonds (N—D...O) of length 2.15–2.25 Å. Two of the methyl deuterons appear to participate in weak interlayer hydrogen bonds (C—D...O) of length 2.7–2.8 Å. The hydrogen bonds are ordered at both 4.2 and 180 K. The relative volume change on warming from 4.2 to 180 K, ΔV/V, is +4.06%, which is comparable to, but more nearly isotropic (as determined from the relative change in axial lengths,e.g.Δa/a) than, that observed in deuterated methanol monohydrate.

The crystal structure of the common expectorant guaifenesin, 3-(2-methoxyphenoxy)-1, 2-propanediol (C10H14O4) was solved by applying Monte Carlo simulated annealing techniques to synchrotron powder data, and refined using the Rietveld method. Initial structure solutions yielded an unreasonable conformation, and an unacceptable refinement. Quantum chemical geometry optimizations were used to identify the correct conformation. Guaifenesin crystallizes in the orthorhombic space group P212121 (#19), with a=7.657 05(7), b=25.670 20(24), c=4.979 66(4) Å, V=978.79(2) Å3, and Z=4. Both hydroxyl groups act as hydrogen bond donors and acceptors, resulting in the formation of a two-dimensional network of strong hydrogen bonds in the ac plane. The solid state conformation is ∼4 kcal/mol higher in energy than the minimum-energy conformation of an isolated molecule, but the formation of the hydrogen bonds results in an energy gain of ∼100 kcal/mol. Knowledge of the crystal structure permits quantitative phase analysis of guaifenesin-containing pharmaceuticals (such as Duratuss GP 120-1200) by the Rietveld method.

(davaH2)[FeCl4]2 crystallizes at room temperature from aqueous solutions of 2,4-diaminovinamidinium hydrochloride, (davaH)Cl, and FeCl3 in 3M HCl in the orthorhombic space group Pca21 with a=14.108(3), b = 16.502(3), c = 18.919(4) Å, Z=8. The structure consists of diprotonated tricyclic (davaH2)2+ cations and slightly distorted tetrahedral [FeCl4]- anions. The cations are bent around the central heptacycle forming boat-like units. One of the two independent cations is disordered between two positions. Some interatomic distances N···Cl are interpreted in terms of N-H···Cl hydrogen bonds.

Reduction of bicyclo[3.3.0]octane-3,7-dione yields a mixture of the endo-3,endo-7-diol and endo-3, exo-7-diol (C8H14O2) isomers (5 and 6). These form (5)2·(6) co-crystals in the monoclinic P21/n space group (with Z = 6, Z′ = 1.5) rather than undergoing separation by means of fractional recrystallization or column chromatography. The molecule of 5 occupies a general position, whereas the molecule of 6 is disordered over two orientations across a centre of symmetry with occupancies of 0.463 (2) and 0.037 (2). Individual diol hydroxy groups associate around a pseudo-threefold screw axis by means of hydrogen bonding. The second hydroxy group of each diol behaves in a similar manner, generating a three-dimensional hydrogen-bonded network structure. This hydrogen-bond connectivity is identical to that present in three known helical tubuland diol–hydroquinone co-crystals, and the new crystal structure is even more similar to two homologous aliphatic diol co-crystals.

The crystal structure of the stable nitroxide radical 3-(N-methoxy-N-methylcarbamoyl)-2,2,5,5- tetramethyl-1-oxy-pyrroline was determined from single-crystal X-ray data: orthorhombic, space group Pbca (no. 61), a = 9.0213(1), b = 12.8625(1), c = 21.2406(2) Å, V = 2464.68(4) Å3 and Z = 8. The adjacent molecules assemble to a supramolecular layer structure in the solid state, linked by two intermolecular C-H...O hydrogen bonds.
