Tetrakis(μ2‐4‐aminobenzoato)di‐μ3‐oxido‐tetrakis[dibutyltin(IV)]

The molecule of the title compound, [Sn₄(C₄H₉)₈(C₇H₆NO₂)₄O₂], lies about an inversion centre and is a tetranuclear bis(tetrabutyldicarboxylatodistannoxane) complex containing a planar Sn₄O₂ core in which two μ₃‐oxide O atoms connect an Sn₂O₂ ring to two exocyclic Sn atoms. Each Sn atom has a highly distorted octahedral coordination. In the molecule, the carboxylate groups of two aminobenzoate ligands bridge the central and exocyclic Sn atoms, while two further aminobenzoate ligands have highly asymmetric bidentate chelation to the exocyclic Sn atoms plus long O...Sn interactions with the central Sn atoms. Each Sn atom is also coordinated by two pendant n‐butyl ligands, which extend roughly perpendicular to the plane of the Sn₄O₁₀ core. Only one of the four unique hydrogen‐bond donor sites is involved in a classic N—H...O hydrogen bond, and the resulting supramolecular hydrogen‐bonded structure is an extended two‐dimensional network which lies parallel to the (100) plane and consists of a checkerboard pattern of four‐connected molecular cores acting as nodes. The amine groups not involved in the hydrogen‐bonding interactions have significant N—H...π interactions with neighbouring aminobenzene rings.     

2′‐De­oxy‐2‐fluoro­tubercidin

In the title compound [systematic name: 7‐(2‐de­oxy‐β‐d ‐erythro‐pentofuranos­yl)‐2‐fluoro‐7H‐pyrrolo[2,3‐d]pyrimidin‐2‐amine], C₁₁H₁₃FN₄O₃, the conformation of the N‐glycosylic bond is between anti and high‐anti [χ = −110.2 (3)°]. The 2′‐deoxy­ribofuranosyl unit adopts the N‐type sugar pucker (₄T³), with P = 40.3° and τ_m = 39.2°.

The crystal structure is stabilized by four inter­molecular hydrogen bonds of types N—H⋯N, N—H⋯O and O—H⋯O.     

The 7‐bromo derivative of 2‐amino‐2′‐deoxytubercidin fluorinated at the sugar moiety

The title compound, 2,4‐diamino‐5‐bromo‐7‐(2‐deoxy‐2‐fluoro‐β‐d ‐arabinofuranosyl)‐7H‐pyrrolo[2,3‐d]pyrimidine, C₁₁H₁₃BrFN₅O₃, shows two conformations of the exocyclic C4′—C5′ bond, with the torsion angle γ (O5′—C5′—C4′—C3′) being 170.1 (3)° for conformer 1 (occupancy 0.69) and 60.7 (7)° for conformer 2 (occupancy 0.31).

7‐Cyclopropyl‐2′‐deoxytubercidin: a carbocyclic side‐chain derivative of 7‐deaza‐2′‐deoxyadenosine

The title compound {systematic name: 4‐amino‐5‐cyclopropyl‐7‐(2‐deoxy‐β‐D‐erythro‐pentofuranosyl)‐7H‐pyrrolo[2,3‐d]pyrimidine}, C₁₄H₁₈N₄O₃, exhibits an anti glycosylic bond conformation, with the torsion angle χ = −108.7 (2)°.

The orientation of the exocyclic C4′—C5′ bond is ‐ap (trans), with the torsion angle γ = −167.1 (2)°. The cyclopropyl substituent points away from the nucleobase (anti orientation). Within the three‐dimensional extended crystal structure, the individual molecules are stacked and arranged into layers, which are highly ordered and stabilized by hydrogen bonding. The O atom of the exocyclic 5′‐hydroxy group of the sugar residue acts as an acceptor, forming a bifurcated hydrogen bond to the amino groups of two different neighbouring molecules. By this means, four neighbouring molecules form a rhomboidal arrangement of two bifurcated hydrogen bonds involving two amino groups and two O5′ atoms of the sugar residues.     

7‐Deaza‐2′‐deoxy­guanosine

In the title compound, 2‐amino‐7‐(2‐deoxy‐β‐d ‐erythro‐pentofuran­osyl)‐3,7‐dihydro­pyrrolo[2,3‐d]pyrimidin‐4‐one, C₁₁H₁₄N₄O₄, the N‐glycosylic bond torsion angle, χ, is anti [−106.5 (3)°].

2‐Amino‐7‐chloro‐2′‐deoxy­tubercidin

In 4‐chloro‐7‐(2‐de­oxy‐β‐d ‐erythro‐pento­furanos­yl)‐7H‐pyr­rolo­[2,3‐d]­pyrimidine‐2,4‐diamine, C₁₁H₁₄ClN₅O₃, the conformation of the N‐glycosylic bond is between anti and high‐anti [χ = −102.5 (6)°]. The 2′‐deoxy­ribofuranosyl unit adopts the C3′‐endo‐C4′‐exo (³T₄) sugar pucker (N‐type) with P = 19.6° and τ_m = 32.9° [terminology: Saenger (1989). Landolt‐Börnstein New Series, Vol. 1, Nucleic Acids, Subvol. a, edited by O. Madelung, pp. 1–21. Berlin: Springer‐Verlag]. The orientation of the exocyclic C4′—C5′ bond is +ap (trans) with a torsion angle γ = 171.5 (4)°.

3‐Deoxy‐β‐d‐ribo‐hexopyranose (3‐deoxy‐β‐d‐glucopyranose)

The β‐pyranose form, (III), of 3‐deoxy‐d ‐ribo‐hexose (3‐deoxy‐d ‐glucose), C₆H₁₂O₅, crystallizes from water at 298 K in a slightly distorted ⁴C₁ chair conformation. Structural analyses of (III), β‐d ‐glucopyranose, (IV), and 2‐deoxy‐β‐d ‐arabino‐hexopyranose (2‐deoxy‐β‐d ‐glucopyranose), (V), show significantly different C—O bond torsions involving the anomeric carbon, with the H—C—O—H torsion angle approaching an eclipsed conformation in (III) (−10.9°) compared with 32.8 and 32.5° in (IV) and (V), respectively. Ring carbon deoxygenation significantly affects the endo‐ and exocyclic C—C and C—O bond lengths throughout the pyranose ring, with longer bonds generally observed in the monodeoxygenated species (III) and (V) compared with (IV). These structural changes are attributed to differences in exocyclic C—O bond conformations and/or hydrogen‐bonding patterns superimposed on the direct (intrinsic) effect of monodeoxygenation. The exocyclic hydroxymethyl conformation in (III) (gt) differs from that observed in (IV) and (V) (gg).     

4‐Amino‐7‐(2‐de­oxy‐2‐fluoro‐β‐d‐arabinofuranos­yl)‐5‐fluoro‐7H‐pyrrolo[2,3‐d]pyrimidine: a bis‐fluorinated analogue of 2′‐deoxy­tubercidin

The title compound, C₁₁H₁₂F₂N₄O₃, exhibits an anti glycosylic bond conformation, with a torsion angle χ = −117.8 (2)°. The sugar pucker is N‐type (C4′‐exo, between ³T₄ and E₄, with P = 45.3° and τ_m = 41.3°). The conformation around the exocyclic C—C bond is −ap (trans), with a torsion angle γ = −177.46 (15)°. The nucleobases are stacked head‐to‐head. The crystal structure is characterized by a three‐dimensional hydrogen‐bond network involving N—H⋯O, O—H⋯O and O—H⋯N hydrogen bonds.     

Isatin 3‐semicarbazone and 1‐methyl­isatin 3‐semicarbazone

The two title semicarbazones, namely 2,3‐dihydro‐1H‐indole‐2,3‐dione 3‐semicarbazone, C₉H₈N₄O₂, (I), and 1‐methyl‐2,3‐dihydro‐1H‐indole‐2,3‐dione 3‐semicarbazone, C₁₀H₁₀N₄O₂, (II), show the same configuration, viz. Z around the imine C=N bond and E around the C(O)—NH₂ bond, stabilized by two intra­molecular hydrogen bonds. The presence of a methyl group on the isatin N atom determines the difference in the packing; in (I), the mol­ecules are linked into chains which lie in the crystallographic (102) plane and run perpendicular to the b axis, while in (II), the mol­ecules are arranged to form helices running parallel to a crystallographic screw axis in the a direction.     

8‐Aza‐7‐deaza‐2′‐de­oxy‐2‐(methyl­sulfan­yl)adenosine

In the title compound, 4‐amino‐1‐(2‐de­oxy‐β‐d ‐erythro‐pentofuranos­yl)‐6‐methyl­sulfanyl‐1H‐pyrazolo[3,4‐d]pyrimidine, C₁₁H₁₆N₅O₃S, the conformation of the glycosidic bond is between anti and high anti. The 2′‐deoxy­ribofuranosyl moiety adopts the C3′‐exo–C4′‐endo conformation (₃T⁴, S‐type sugar pucker), and the conformation at the exocyclic C—C bond is +sc (+gauche). The exocyclic 6‐amine group and the 2‐methyl­sulfanyl group lie on different sides of the heterocyclic ring system. The mol­ecules form a three‐dimensional hydrogen‐bonded network that is stabilized by O—H⋯N, N—H⋯O and C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds.

The title compound [systematic name: 1‐(2‐deoxy‐β‐D‐erythro‐pentofuranosyl)‐4‐nitro‐1H‐pyrrolo[2,3‐b]pyridine], C₁₂H₁₃N₃O₅, forms an intramolecular hydrogen bond between the pyridine N atom as acceptor and the 5′‐hydroxy group of the sugar residue as donor. Consequently, the N‐glycosylic bond exhibits a syn conformation, with a χ torsion angle of 61.6 (2)°, and the pentofuranosyl residue adopts a C2′‐endo envelope conformation (²E, S‐type), with P = 162.1 (1)° and τ_m = 36.2 (1)°. The orientation of the exocyclic C4′—C5′ bond is +sc (gauche, gauche), with a torsion angle γ = 49.1 (2)°. The title nucleoside forms an ordered and stacked three‐dimensional network. The pyrrole ring of one layer faces the pyridine ring of an adjacent layer. Additionally, intermolecular O—H...O and C—H...O hydrogen bonds stabilize the crystal structure.     

Die Hydroaluminierung von 1,1,4,4‐Tetramethyl‐2,3‐diazabutadien mit Dialkylaluminiumhydriden – Synthese von Dialkylaluminiumhydrazoniden

The Hydroalumination of 1,1,4,4‐Tetramethyl‐2,3‐diazabutadiene by Dialkylaluminium Hydrides – Synthesis of Dialkylaluminium Hydrazonides 1,1,4,4‐Tetramethyl‐2,3‐diazabutadiene reacted with dimethylaluminium hydride by hydroalumination of only one C=N double bond. The hydrazone derivative [Me₂Al–N(CHMe₂)–N=CMe₂]₂ ( 1 ) was formed which gave a dimer possessing a six‐membered Al₂N₄ heterocycle. The hydroalumination of both C=N double bonds was not observed. Also an excess of di(tert‐butyl)‐ or bis(trimethylsilylmethyl)aluminium hydride afforded only the product of a single hydroalumination step, a second dialkylaluminium hydride molecule was attached via a coordinative interaction between its central aluminium atom and the nitrogen atom of the C=N double bond and in addition via a 3 c‐2 e Al–H–Al bond. Compounds [(Me₃C)₂Al][(Me₃C)₂AlH]N(CHMe₂)NCMe₂ ( 2 ) and [(Me₃SiCH₂)₂Al][(Me₃SiCH₂)₂AlH]N(CHMe₂)NCMe₂ ( 3 ) were formed which have five‐membered Al₂N₂H heterocycles. Thermolysis of 2 gave by C–H activation compound [(Me₃C)₂Al]₂[CH₂C(Me)=N–]₂ ( 4 ) in trace amounts which possesses two anellated AlN₂C₂ rings with a common N–N bond. In contrast, the thermal decomposition of 3 yielded by the cleavage of the N–N bond a dimeric dialkylaluminium methylideneamide ( 5 ) which has two intact C=N double bonds. Up to now our attempts to insert a C=N double bond into an Al–C bond remained unsuccessful, and only the formation of an adduct [(Me₃C)₃Al(–N=CMe₂)₂] ( 6 ) was observed upon treatment of tri(tert‐butyl)aluminium with the diazabutadiene derivative.     

7‐Amino‐1‐(2‐deoxy‐β‐erythro‐pentofuranosyl)‐1H‐1,2,3‐triazolo[4,5‐d]pyrimidine: an 8‐azaadenine nucleoside with the nucleobase in a syn conformation

The title compound, C₉H₁₂N₆O₃, shows a syn‐glycosylic bond orientation [χ = 64.17 (16)°]. The 2′‐deoxyfuranosyl moiety exhibits an unusual C1′‐exo–O4′‐endo (₁T⁰; S‐type) sugar pucker, with P = 111.5 (1)° and τ_m = 40.3 (1)°. The conformation at the exocyclic C4′—C5′ bond is +sc (gauche), with γ = 64.4 (1)°. The two‐dimensional hydrogen‐bonded network is built from intermolecular N—H...O and O—H...N hydrogen bonds. An intramolecular bifurcated hydrogen bond, with an amino N—H group as hydrogen‐bond donor and the ring and hydroxymethyl O atoms of the sugar moiety as acceptors, constrains the overall conformation of the nucleoside.     

4‐(2‐Hydroxyphenyl)‐2‐phenyl‐2,3‐dihydro‐1H‐1,5‐benzodiazepine and the 2‐(2,3‐dimethoxyphenyl)‐, 2‐(3,4‐dimethoxyphenyl)‐ and 2‐(2,5‐dimethoxyphenyl)‐substituted derivatives

The 1,5‐benzodiazepine ring system exhibits a puckered boat‐like conformation for all four title compounds [4‐(2‐hydroxyphenyl)‐2‐phenyl‐2,3‐dihydro‐1H‐1,5‐benzodiazepine, C₂₁H₁₈N₂O, (I), 2‐(2,3‐dimethoxyphenyl)‐4‐(2‐hydroxyphenyl)‐2,3‐dihydro‐1H‐1,5‐benzodiazepine, C₂₃H₂₂N₂O₃, (II), 2‐(3,4‐dimethoxyphenyl)‐4‐(2‐hydroxyphenyl)‐2,3‐dihydro‐1H‐1,5‐benzodiazepine, C₂₃H₂₂N₂O₃, (III), and 2‐(2,5‐dimethoxyphenyl)‐4‐(2‐hydroxyphenyl)‐2,3‐dihydro‐1H‐1,5‐benzodiazepine, C₂₃H₂₂N₂O₃, (IV)]. The stereochemical correlation of the two C₆ aromatic groups with respect to the benzodiazepine ring system is pseudo‐equatorial–equatorial for compounds (I) (the phenyl group), (II) (the 2,3‐dimethoxyphenyl group) and (III) (the 3,4‐dimethoxyphenyl group), while for (IV) (the 2,5‐dimethoxyphenyl group) the system is pseudo‐axial–equatorial. An intramolecular hydrogen bond between the hydroxyl OH group and a benzodiazepine N atom is present for all four compounds and defines a six‐membered ring, whose geometry is constant across the series. Although the molecular structures are similar, the supramolecular packing is different; compounds (I) and (IV) form chains, while (II) forms dimeric units and (III) displays a layered structure. The packing seems to depend on at least two factors: (i) the nature of the atoms defining the hydrogen bond and (ii) the number of intermolecular interactions of the types O—H...O, N—H...O, N—H...π(arene) or C—H...π(arene).     

7‐Deaza‐2′‐deoxyinosine: a nucleoside showing ambiguous base‐pairing properties against the four canonical DNA constituents

The title compound [systematic name: 7‐(2‐deoxy‐β‐d ‐erythro‐pentofuranosyl)‐3,7‐dihydro‐4H‐pyrrolo[2,3‐d]pyrimidin‐4‐one], C₁₁H₁₃N₃O₄, represents an acid‐stable derivative of 2′‐deoxyinosine. It exhibits an anti glycosylic bond conformation, with a χ torsion angle of 113.30 (15)°. The furanose moiety adopts an S‐type sugar pucker ⁴T₃, with P = 221.8 (1)° and τ_m = 40.4 (1)°. The conformation at the exocyclic C4′—C5′ bond of the furanose ring is ap (trans), with γ = 167.14 (10)°. The extended structure forms a three‐dimensional hydrogen‐bond network involving O—H...O, N—H...O and C—H...O hydrogen bonds. The title compound forms an uncommon hydrogen bond between a CH group of the pyrrole system and the ring O atom of the sugar moiety of a neighbouring molecule.

Enzyme‐ and Ruthenium‐Catalyzed Enantioselective Transformation of α‐Allenic Alcohols into 2,3‐Dihydrofurans

An efficient one‐pot method for the enzyme‐ and ruthenium‐catalyzed enantioselective transformation of α‐allenic alcohols into 2,3‐dihydrofurans has been developed. The method involves an enzymatic kinetic resolution and a subsequent ruthenium‐catalyzed cycloisomerization, which provides 2,3‐dihydrofurans with excellent enantioselectivity (up to >99 % ee). A ruthenium carbene species was proposed as a key intermediate in the cycloisomerization.     

Methyl 2‐acetamido‐2‐deoxy‐β‐d‐glucopyranoside dihydrate and methyl 2‐formamido‐2‐deoxy‐β‐d‐glucopyranoside

Methyl 2‐acetamido‐2‐deoxy‐β‐d ‐glucopyranoside (β‐GlcNAcOCH₃), (I), crystallizes from water as a dihydrate, C₉H₁₇NO₆·H₂O, containing two independent molecules [denoted (IA) and (IB)] in the asymmetric unit, whereas the crystal structure of methyl 2‐formamido‐2‐deoxy‐β‐d ‐glucopyranoside (β‐GlcNFmOCH₃), (II), C₈H₁₅NO₆, also obtained from water, is devoid of solvent water molecules. The two molecules of (I) assume distorted ⁴C₁ chair conformations. Values of ϕ for (IA) and (IB) indicate ring distortions towards B_C2,C5 and ^C3,O5B, respectively. By comparison, (II) shows considerably more ring distortion than molecules (IA) and (IB), despite the less bulky N‐acyl side chain. Distortion towards B_C2,C5 was observed for (II), similar to the findings for (IA). The amide bond conformation in each of (IA), (IB) and (II) is trans, and the conformation about the C—N bond is anti (C—H is approximately anti to N—H), although the conformation about the latter bond within this group varies by ∼16°. The conformation of the exocyclic hydroxymethyl group was found to be gt in each of (IA), (IB) and (II). Comparison of the X‐ray structures of (I) and (II) with those of other GlcNAc mono‐ and disaccharides shows that GlcNAc aldohexopyranosyl rings can be distorted over a wide range of geometries in the solid state.

The ribofuran­ose moiety shows a C3′‐endo (³T₂) sugar puckering (N‐type sugar), and the conformation at the exocyclic C4′—C5′ bond is −ap (trans). The nucleobases are stacked head‐to‐head. The three‐dimensional packing of the crystal structure is stabilized by hydrogen bonds between the 2′‐O‐methyl­ribonucleosides and the solvent mol­ecules.     

5‐Methyl‐6‐aza‐2′‐deoxy­isocytidine

In the title compound, 3‐amino‐2‐(2‐deoxy‐β‐d ‐erythro‐pento­furan­osyl)‐6‐methyl‐1,2,4‐triazin‐5(2H)‐one, C₉H₁₄N₄O₄, the conformation of the N‐glycosidic bond is high‐anti and the 2‐deoxy­ribo­furan­osyl moiety adopts a North sugar pucker (²T₃). The orientation of the exocyclic C—C bond between the –CH₂OH group and the five‐membered ring is ap (gauche, trans). The crystal packing is such that the nucleobases lie parallel to the ac plane; the planes are connected via hydrogen bonds involving the five‐membered ring.
