Low-temperature determination of theophylline dimethyl sulfoxide solvate

The title solvate, C7H8N4O2 center dot C2H6OS, was obtained unintentionally from a cocrystal screen involving theophylline and isophthalic acid. One molecule each of theophylline and dimethyl sulfoxide is present in the asymmetric unit. The packing consists of molecular sheets lying parallel to the ( 040) series of lattice planes, in which each theophylline molecule is hydrogen bonded to one dimethyl sulfoxide molecule through an N-H center dot center dot center dot O [2.7658 (15) angstrom] hydrogen bond. This particular hydrogen-bond donor was found to be used in this type of interaction in a variety of other crystal structures of theophylline.

Cytenamide trifluoroacetic acid solvate

Cytenamide forms a 1:1 solvate with trifluoroacetic acid (systematic name: 5H-dibenzo[a, d] cycloheptatriene-5-carboxamide trifluoroacetic acid solvate), C16H13NO center dot C2HF3O2. The compound crystallizes with one molecule of cytenamide and one of trifluoroacetic acid in the asymmetric unit; these are linked by O-H center dot center dot center dot O and N-H center dot center dot center dot O hydrogen bonds to form an R-2(2)(8) motif. The trifluoromethyl group of the solvent molecule displays rotational disorder over two sites, with site-occupancy factors of 0.964 (4) and 0.036 (4).

Cytenamide acetic acid solvate

In the crystal structure of the title compound (systematic name: 5H-dibenzo[a,d]cycloheptatriene-5-carboxamide ethanoic acid solvate), C16H13NO center dot C2H4O2, the cytenamide and solvent molecules form a hydrogen-bonded R-2(2)(8) dimer motif, which is further connected to form a centrosymmetric double ring motif arrangement. The cycloheptene ring adopts a boat conformation and the dihedral angle between the least-squares planes through the two aromatic rings is 54.7 (2)degrees.

Carbamazepine trifluoroacetic acid solvate

Carbamazepine forms a 1:1 solvate with trifluoroacetic acid (systematic name: 5H-dibenzo[b,f] azepine-5-carboxamide trifluoroacetic acid solvate), C(15)H(12)N(2)O center dot C(2)HF(3)O(2). The compound crystallizes with one molecule of carbamazepine and one of trifluoroacetic acid in the asymmetric unit to form an R(2)(2)(8) motif. The solvent molecule is disordered over two sites, with site-occupancy factors 0.53 (1) and 0.47 (1).

Form III-like conformation and Form I-like packing in a chloroform channel solvate of the diuretic drug chlortalidone

Chlortalidone (CTD) is an antihypertensive drug for which only two solid state phases have been structurally elucidated thus far. Here, we have prepared a chloroform solvate thereof, namely, CTD Form IV, and its structure was compared to those of Form I and Form III. Its two conformers exhibit a dual structural feature in relation to the antecedent polymorphs. Both CTD molecules of Form IV adopt a Form III-like conformation, which is featured, if the conformation of CTD Form I is used as a reference, by a rotation of about 90 degrees on the axis of the C-C bond bridging the substituted benzene and isoindolinyl rings. However, CTD Form IV assembles as in the Form I crystal packing despite the different stacking fashion of their centrosymmetric dimers. In contrast to Form I, there is no offset stacking in Form IV, which forces a bend of ca. 24 degrees between the planes passing through the isoindolinyl moieties of two [100]-stacked dimers. Chloroform molecules at a maximum stoichiometry of 0.25 mol per mol of the drug play a stabilizing role in the assembly of Form IV by filling the channels formed on the crystals.

Low-temperature study of a new nevirapine pseudopolymorph

The title compound (systematic name: 11-cyclopropyl-4-methyl-5,11-dihydro-6H-dipyrido[3,2-b: 2',3'-e][1,4] diazepin-6-one butanol 0.3-solvate), C15H14N4O center dot 0.3C(4)H(9)OH, was crystallized in a new triclinic pseudopolymorphic form, a butanol solvate, and the crystal structure determined at 150 K. The molecular conformation of this new form differs from that reported previously, although the main intermolecular hydrogen-bond pattern remains the same. N-H center dot center dot center dot O hydrogen bonds [N center dot center dot center dot O = 2.957 (3) angstrom] form centrosymmetric dimers and the crystal packing of this new pseudopolymorph generates infinite channels along the b axis.

Interaction of zinc(II) with the cyclic octapeptides, cyclo[Ile(Oxn)-D-Val(Thz)](2) and ascidiacyclamide, a cyclic peptide from Lissoclinum patella

The interactions between zinc salts and the naturally occurring cyclic octapeptide ascidiacyclamide in methanol, as well as a synthetic analogue cyclo[Ile(Oxn)-D-Val(Thz)](2), were monitored by H-1 NMR and CD spectroscopy. Three zinc complexes were identified, their relative amounts depending on the nature of the anion (perchlorate, triflate or chloride) and the presence or absence of base. Binding constants for two of the zinc species were calculated from CD or H-1 NMR spectra, [Zn(L - H)](+) (KZn(L-H) = [Zn(L - H)(+)]/[Zn2+][(L - H)(-)] = 10(7 +/- 2) M-1; 95% methanol/5% water, 298.0 K, NEt3/HClO4 buffer 0.04 M) and [ZnLCl](+) (K-ZnCIL = [ZnCIL+]/[Zn2+][Cl-][L] = 10(7.2) (+/-) (0.1) M-2; d(3)-methanol, 301 K).

Four cytotoxic N4-substituted thiosemicarbazones derived from 2-hydroxynaphthalene-1-carboxaldehyde

The X-ray crystal structures are reported of four novel and potentially O,N,S-tridentate donor ligands that demonstrate antitumour activity. These ligands are 1-[(4-methylthiosemicarbazono)methyl]-2-naphthol, C13H13N3OS, (III), 1-[(4-ethylthiosemicarbazono)methyl]-2-naphthol, C14H15N3OS, (IV), 1-[(4-phenylthiosemicarbazono)methyl]-2-naphthol, C18H15N3OS, (V), and 1-[(4,4-dimethylthiosemicarbazono)methyl]-2-naphthol dimethyl sulfoxide solvate, C14H15N3OS.C2H6OS, (VI). These chelators are N4-substituted thiosemicarbazones, each based on the same parent aldehyde, namely 2-zhydroxynaphthalene-1-carboxaldehyde isonicotinoylhydrazone. Conformational variations within this series are discussed in relation to the optimum conformation for metal-ion binding.

Análisis de las políticas públicas sobre desarrollo rural en el gobierno de Álvaro Uribe Vélez (2002-2007) a la luz del concepto de nueva ruralidad

Las teorías en desarrollo rural en el país no han sido abordadas adecuadamente para solventar los problemas estructurales del campo y los modelos de apertura económica y de agroexportaciones no han cumplido su propósito de mejor el nivel de vida de los habitantes, es por esto que se hace necesario a partir de un análisis del contexto actual del campo colombiano replantear las políticas públicas encaminadas a este fin. El análisis se realiza a partir de las políticas públicas del gobierno de Álvaro Uribe Vélez a la luz del concepto de Nueva Ruralidad.

A tungsten complex containing a highly delocalized metal-ligand system

Nucleophilic attack of (triphenylphosphonio) cyclopentadienide on the dichlorodiazomethane-tungsten complex trans[ BrW(dppe)(2)(N2CCl2)]PF6 [dppe is 1,2-bis(diphenylphosphino) ethane] results in C-C bond formation and affords the title compound, trans-[W(C24H18ClN2P)Br(C26H24P2)(2)]PF6 center dot 0.6CH(2)Cl(2). This complex, bis[1,2- bis(diphenylphosphino)ethane] bromido{chloro[3-(triphenylphosphonio) cyclopentadienylidene] diazomethanediido} tungsten hexafluorophosphate dichloromethane 0.6-solvate, contains the previously unknown ligand chloro[3-(triphenylphosphonio) cyclopentadienylidene] diazomethane. Evidence from bond lengths and torsion angles indicates significant through-ligand delocalization of electron density from tungsten to the nominally cationic phosphorus(V) centre. This structural analysis clearly demonstrates that the tungsten-dinitrogen unit is a powerful pi-electron donor with the ability to transfer electron density from the metal to a distant acceptor centre through an extended conjugated ligand system. As a consequence, complexes of this type could have potential applications as nonlinear optical materials and molecular semiconductors.

Cytenamide-butyric acid (1/1)

Cytenamide forms a 1:1 solvate with butyric acid [systematic name: 5H-dibenzo[a,d]cycloheptatriene-5-carboxamide-butanoic acid (1/1)], C16H13NO center dot C4H8O2. The title compound crystallizes with one molecule of cytenamide and one of butyric acid in the asymmetric unit; these molecules are linked by N-H center dot center dot center dot O and O-H center dot center dot center dot O hydrogen bonds to form an R-2(2)(8) heterodimer motif. Pairs of adjacent motifs are further connected via N-H center dot center dot center dot O interactions to form a discrete centrosymmetric assembly.

Urea-N,N-dimethylacetamide (1/1)

Urea forms a 1:1 solvate with N,N-dimethylacetamide (DMA) [systematic name: diaminomethanal- N,N-dimethylacetamide (1/1), C4H9NO center dot CH4N2O] with both molecules positioned on a twofold axis, giving rise to rotational disorder of the DMA molecule. The molecules display a layered structure in which urea molecules form hydrogen-bonded ribbons bounded by molecules of solvent.

Mononuclear single helices of lanthanum(III) and europium(III). Metal dependent diastereomeric excess

Using the 1: 2 condensate of benzildihydrazone and 2-acetylpyridine as a tetradentate N donor ligand L, LaL(NO3)(3) (1) and EuL(NO3)(3) (2), which are pale yellow in colour, are synthesized. While single crystals of 1 could not be obtained, 2 crystallises as a monodichloromethane solvate, 2 center dot CH2Cl2 in the space group Cc with a = 11.7099(5) angstrom, b = 16.4872(5) angstrom, c = 17.9224(6) angstrom and beta = 104.048(4)degrees. From the X-ray crystal structure, 2 is found to be a rare example of monohelical complex of Eu(III). Complex 1 is diamagnetic. The magnetic moment of 2 at room temperature is 3.32 BM. Comparing the FT-IR spectra of 1 and 2, it is concluded that 1 also is a mononuclear single helix. H-1 NMR reveals that both 1 and 2 are mixtures of two diastereomers. In the case of the La(III) complex (1), the diastereomeric excess is only 10% but in the Eu(III) complex 2 it is 80%. The occurrence of diastereomerism is explained by the chiralities of the helical motif and the type of pentakis chelates present in 1 and 2.
