Title: Structural characterization and Hirshfeld surface analysis of 2-iodo-4-(pentafluoro-λ 6 -sulfanyl)benzonitrile
The title compound, C 7 H 3 F 5 INS, a pentafluorosulfanyl (SF 5 ) containing arene, was synthesized from 4-(pentafluorosulfanyl)benzonitrile and lithium tetramethylpiperidide following a variation to the standard approach, which features simple and mild conditions that allow direct access to tri-substituted SF 5 intermediates that have not been demonstrated using previous methods. The molecule displays a planar geometry with the benzene ring in the same plane as its three substituents. It lies on a mirror plane perpendicular to [010] with the iodo, cyano, and the sulfur and axial fluorine atoms of the pentafluorosulfanyl substituent in the plane of the molecule. The equatorial F atoms have symmetry-related counterparts generated by the mirror plane. The pentafluorosulfanyl group exhibits a staggered fashion relative to the ring and the two hydrogen atoms ortho to the substituent. S—F bond lengths of the pentafluorosulfanyl group are unequal: the equatorial bond facing the iodo moiety has a longer distance [1.572 (3) Å] and wider angle compared to that facing the side of the molecules with two hydrogen atoms [1.561 (4) Å]. As expected, the axial S—F bond is the longest [1.582 (5) Å]. In the crystal, in-plane C—H...F and N...I interactions as well as out-of-plane F...C interactions are observed. According to the Hirshfeld analysis, the principal intermolecular contacts for the title compound are F...H (29.4%), F...I (15.8%), F...N (11.4%), F...F (6.0%), N...I (5.6%) and F...C (4.5%).  more » « less

  1. The synthesis of the title compound, C 13 H 21 NO 2 S, is reported here along with its crystal structure. This compound crystallizes with two molecules in the asymmetric unit. The sulfonamide functional group of this structure features S=O bond lengths ranging from 1.433 (3) to 1.439 (3) Å, S—C bond lengths of 1.777 (3) and 1.773 (4) Å, and S—N bond lengths of 1.622 (3) and 1.624 (3) Å. When viewing the molecules down the S—N bond, the isopropyl groups are gauche to the aromatic ring. On each molecule, two methyl hydrogen atoms of one isopropyl group are engaged in intramolecular C—H...O hydrogen bonds with a nearby sulfonamide oxygen atom. Intermolecular C—H...O hydrogen bonds and C—H...π interactions link molecules of the title compound in the solid state.

  2. In the title compound, C 12 H 13 NO 2 , the five-membered ring has an envelope conformation; the disubstituted C atom lies out of the mean plane through the four other ring atoms (r.m.s. deviation = 0.0038 Å) by 0.1877 (18) Å. The plane of the phenyl substituent is practically perpendicular to that of the planar part of the five-membered ring, with a dihedral angle of 87.01 (5)°. In the crystal, molecules are linked by weak C—H...O hydrogen bonds, forming inversion dimers. The dimers are linked by further C—H...O hydrogen bonds, as well as carbonyl–carbonyl attractive interactions [O...C = 3.2879 (19) Å], forming a three-dimensional framework structure.

  3. The molecular structure of the title compound, C 11 H 15 NO 2 S, features a sulfonamide group with S=O bond lengths of 1.4357 (16) and 1.4349 (16) Å, an S—N bond length of 1.625 (2) Å, and an S—C bond length of 1.770 (2) Å. When viewing the molecule down the S—N bond, both N—C bonds of the pyrrolidine ring are oriented gauche to the S—C bond with torsion angles of −65.6 (2)° and 76.2 (2)°. The crystal structure features both intra- and intermolecular C—H...O hydrogen bonds, as well as intermolecular C—H...π and π–π interactions, leading to the formation of sheets parallel to the ac plane.

  4. The title compound, [PtCl 2 (C 26 H 22 P 2 )]·2CHCl 3 (I), is the third monoclinic polymorph of this platinum(II) complex involving the bidentate ligand cis -1,2-bis(diphenylphosphanyl)ethylene ( cis -dppe) [for the others, see: Oberhauser et al. (1998 a ). Inorg. Chim. Acta , 274 , 143–154, and Oberhauser et al. (1995). Inorg. Chim. Acta , 238 , 35–43]. The structure of compound (I) was solved in the space group P 2 1 / c , with one complex molecule in the asymmetric unit along with two solvate chloroform molecules. The Pt II atom is ligated by two P and two Cl atoms in the equatorial plane and has a perfect square-planar coordination sphere. In the crystal, the complex molecule is linked to the chloroform solvate molecules by C—H...Cl hydrogen bonds and face-on C—Cl...π interactions. There are also weak offset π–π interactions present [intercentroid distances are 3.770 (6) and 4.096 (6) Å], linking the molecules to form supramolecular sheets that lie in the bc plane.

  5. null (Ed.)
    The syntheses and crystal structures of the two title compounds, C 11 H 10 O 3 ( I ) and C 17 H 14 BrNO 2 ( II ), both containing the bicyclo[2.2.2]octene ring system, are reported here [the structure of I has been reported previously: White & Goh (2014). Private Communication (refcode HOKRIK). CCDC, Cambridge, England]. The bond lengths and angles of the bicyclo[2.2.2]octene ring system are similar for both structures. The imide functional group of II features carbonyl C=O bond lengths of 1.209 (2) and 1.210 (2) Å, with C—N bond lengths of 1.393 (2) and 1.397 (2) Å. The five-membered imide ring is nearly planar, and it is positioned exo relative to the alkene bridgehead carbon atoms of the bicyclo[2.2.2]octene ring system. Non-covalent interactions present in the crystal structure of II include a number of C—H...O interactions. The extended structure of II also features C—H...O hydrogen bonds as well as C—H...π and lone pair–π interactions, which combine together to create supramolecular sheets.
