Glycosylamines of 4,6-O-butylidene-alpha-D-glucopyranose: synthesis and characterization of glycosylamines, and the crystal structure of 4,6-O-butylidene-N-(o-chlorophenyl)-beta-D-glucopyranosylamine

A total of nine glycosylamines of 4,6-O-butylidene-alpha-D-glucopyranose were synthesized using primary amines having various groups in their ortho- or para-positions. Among these, six are monoglycosylamines, including one primary glycosylamine, and three are bis-glycosylamines. All these compounds were characterized by 1H, 1H-1H COSY, 1H-13C COSY and 13C NMR spectroscopy and FTIR spectra. The FAB mass spectra provided the molecular weights of the products by exhibiting the corresponding molecular ion peaks. The crystal structure of 4,6-O-butylidene-N-(o-chlorophenyl)-beta-D-glucopyranosylamine revealed the C-1 glycosylation, the beta-anomeric nature, and the 4C1 chair conformation of the saccharide unit in the product. In the lattice two types of dimers exist. While one type of dimer is formed through O-H...O type of interactions, the other type is formed via C-H...O type of interactions. In the direction of these C-H...O type of interactions, the dimeric units are connected to form a chain.     

Synthesis, characterization and the first crystal structure of the Zn(II) complex of 4,6-O-ethylidine-N-(2-hydroxybenzylidene)-beta-D-glucopyranosylamine.

4,6-O-Ethylidine-N-(2-hydroxybenzylidene)-beta-D-glucopyranosylamine (H(3)L(1)) and N-(5-bromo-2-hydroxybenzylidene-4,6-O-ethylidine-beta-D-glucopyranosylamine (H(3)L(2)) molecules possessing a single bond C-1 single bond N double bond C(H) single bond moiety for metal-ion binding were synthesized by condensing the 4,6-O-ethylidene-beta-D-glucopyranosylamine with salicylaldehyde or 5-bromosalicylaldehyde. Complexes of these ligands with Zn(II) were isolated and characterized using elemental analysis, FTIR, UV-Vis absorption, NMR spectroscopic and FAB mass spectrometric techniques. The structure of the Zn(II) complex derived from H(3)L(1) was established for the first time by a single-crystal X-ray diffraction study. The anomeric nature of the saccharide moiety was established based on (1)H NMR studies and was confirmed by the crystal structure. Further, the structure and binding aspects of the ligand, and the coordination features of this in its Zn(II) complex were derived from the corresponding crystal structure.     

Synthesis, characterisation and crystal structures of Schiff bases from the reaction of 4,6-O-ethylidene-beta-D-glucopyranosylamine with substituted salicylaldehydes.

Multiple chemical modifications were carried out on D-glucose to result in the corresponding Schiff bases. Such modifications performed on D-glucose not only helped in increasing the solubility of the products in nonaqueous solvents, but also restricted the anomerisation of the saccharide moiety in solution. NMR study of the products revealed the presence of the beta-anomeric form of the saccharide moiety in Me(2)SO solution. All the compounds were characterised by analytical and spectral methods. The literature is devoid of any crystal structures of saccharide-Schiff base combinations of the type reported in this paper. The crystal structures of these molecules exhibited a tridentate, ONO binding core. These studies further revealed that the compounds in the solid state were in the beta-D-pyranose form with the (4)C(1) chair conformation. The compounds exhibited interesting lattice structures assisted through weak interactions of the type O-H...O and C-H...O. The lattice structure of one of these compounds exhibited channels filled with chloroform molecules.

Interaction of metal ions with N-glycosylamines: isolation and characterization of the products of 4,6-O-benzylidene-N-(o-carboxyphenyl)-beta-D-glucopyranosylamine with different metal ions

Metal-ion complexes of Li(+), Na(+), K(+), Mg(2+), Ca(2+), Ba(2+), Pb(2+), Cd(2+), Hg(2+) with 4,6-O-benzylidene-N-(o-carboxyphenyl)-beta-D-glucopyranosylamine were synthesized and isolated as solid products and characterized by analytical means as well as by spectral techniques, such as, 1H and 13C NMR, FTIR, absorption, FAB mass spectrometry, optical rotation and CD. While the alkali metal ions formed ML type of complexes, the other metal ions formed ML(2) type complexes. Molecular weights of the complexes of Li(+), Na(+) and K(+) were established based on the molecular-ion peaks in the FAB mass spectra. The saccharide portion remains in the beta-anomeric form even after the complexation. The spectral data, as well as the trends observed in the chemical shifts, indicate the interaction preferences between this glycosyl amine and different metal ions, and further reveal certain structural features of the complexes.     

Crystal structure of N-(1-deoxy-beta-D-fructopyranos-1-yl)-L-proline-an Amadori compound

Here we report the crystal structure data on N-(1-deoxy-beta-D-fructopyranos-1-yl)-L-proline (Fru-Pro)-an Amadori compound. X-ray crystal and molecular structures of its two isomorphous crystalline forms, (Fru-Pro)xMeOH, C(11)H(19)NO(7)xCH(4)O (1a) and (Fru-Pro)x2H(2)O, C(11)H(19)NO(7)x2H(2)O (1b) were determined. In 1a and 1b the compound crystallizes as the beta-anomer with the overall geometry of Fru-Pro zwitterions being very similar. Fructose ring adopts the chair (2)C(5) conformation with the proline moiety bonded to equatorial C-1 atom and remaining in a trans-gauche (tg) orientation with respect to the sugar ring. The five-membered pyrrolidine ring adopts an envelope conformation, with the Cbeta atom puckered. Fructosyl and carboxylate groups are in bisectional and axial positions of pyrrolidine ring, respectively. The overall molecular geometry of Fru-Pro zwitterions, especially the relative orientation of sugar and amino acid moieties, is stabilized by intramolecular, three-centred N-H...O(Fru)/O(Pro) hydrogen bonds (with bifurcated acceptor) formed between aminium and hydroxyl/carboxylate groups. The packing diagrams are very similar in both 1a and 1b with the adjacent zwitterions linked to each other by the extensive network of O-H...O and C-H...O hydrogen bonds to form channels along the a-axis, filled up with solvent molecules.

The solution phase studies of 1 reflect that the compound exists in 4C1 conformation with cis-orientation of the substituents at C-1 and C-2. The solid-state structure of 1 reveals that a molecule of water is entrapped in the solid state of 1 and this water molecule serves to mediate N-H...O and C-H...O interactions.     

Re(CO)(3)(H(2)O)(3)(+) binding to lysozyme: structure and reactivity

The reaction of Re(CO)(3)(H(2)O)(3)(+) with hen egg white lysozyme in aqueous solution results in a single covalent adduct. Both NMR spectroscopy and single crystal X-ray diffraction show that the rhenium tricarbonyl cation binds to His15 via replacement of one of the coordinated water molecules. The formation of this adduct does not greatly affect the structure of the protein.

Each sodium atom is coordinated by four oxygen atoms belonging to four different (ISA)(-) anions and by one water molecule. The resulting NaO(5) polyhedra are linked by sharing common corners in zig-zag chains running parallel to the b-axis.     

Metal-ion interactions with sugars. Crystal structures and FT-IR studies of the LaCl3-ribopyranose and CeCl3-ribopyranose complexes

Single crystals of LaCl3.C5H10O5.5H2O (1) and CeCl3.C5H10O5.5H2O (2) were obtained from ethanol-water solutions and their structures determined by X-ray. The two complexes are isomorphous. Two configurations of complex 1 or complex 2, as a pair of isomers, were found in each single crystal in a disordered state. The ligand of one of the isomer is alpha-D-ribopyranose in the 4C1 conformation, the ligand of the other is beta-D-ribopyranose in the 1C4 conformation. For complex 1, the alpha:beta anomeric ratio is 51:49, and for complex 2, the ratio is 52:48. Both ligands of the two isomers provide three hydroxyl groups in ax-eq-ax orientation for coordination. The Ln3+ (Ln = La or Ce) ion is nine-coordinated with five Ln-O bonds from water molecules, three Ln-O bonds from hydroxyl groups of the D-ribopyranose, and one Ln-Cl bond from chloride ion. The hydroxyl groups, water molecules, and chloride ions form an extensive hydrogen-bond network. The IR spectral C-C, O-H, C-O, and C-O-H vibrations were observed to be shifted in both the two complexes and the IR results are in accord with those of X-ray diffraction.

Stereoselective synthesis of methyl 4,6-O-benzylidene-2-C-methoxycarbonylmethyl-alpha-D-ribo-hexopyranosid-3-ulose, and its X-ray crystallographic analysis

Methyl 4,6-O-benzylidene-2-C-methoxycarbonylmethyl-alpha-D-ribo-hexopyranosid-3-ulose has been stereoselectively synthesized in 65% yield by reaction of methyl 4,6-O-benzylidene-alpha-D-arabino-hexopyranosid-2-ulose with diethyl malonate. X-ray crystallographic structure analysis reveals that the chain-branch and the OH group are bonded to C-2 in axial and equatorial positions, respectively. The molecules in the crystal lattice are stacked along a one-dimensional chain, with intermolecular hydrogen bonds between O-8 of one molecule and 2-OH of the next as well as intramolecular hydrogen bonds between O-3 and 2-OH. All phenyl groups are parallel as well as the planes of sugar rings in the molecular columnar stacking.     

(13)C CP MAS NMR and crystal structure of methyl glycopyranosides

The X-ray diffraction analysis, (13)C CP MAS NMR spectra and powder X-ray diffraction patterns were obtained for selected methyl glycosides: alpha- and beta-d-lyxopyranosides (1, 2), alpha- and beta-l-arabinopyranosides (3, 4), alpha- and beta-d-xylopyranosides (5, 6) and beta-d-ribopyranoside (7) and the results were confirmed by GIAO DFT calculations of shielding constants. In X-ray diffraction analysis of 1 and 2, a characteristic shortening and lengthening of selected bonds was observed in molecules of 1 due to anomeric effect and, in crystal lattice of 1 and 2, hydrogen bonds of different patterns were present. Also, an additional intramolecular hydrogen bond with the participation of ring oxygen atom was observed in 1. The observed differences in chemical shifts between solid state and solution come from conformational effects and formation of various intermolecular hydrogen bonds. The changes in chemical shifts originating from intermolecular hydrogen bonds were smaller in magnitude than conformational effects. Furthermore, the powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD) performed for 4, 5 and 7 revealed that 7 existed as a mixture of two polymorphs, and one of them probably consisted of two non-equivalent molecules.
