The crystal structures of the complexes of heptakis(2,3,6-tri-O-methyl)-beta-cyclodextrin with indole-3-butyric acid and with 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid were studied by X-ray diffraction. The complexes crystallize in the monoclinic P2(1) space group. The host molecules are elliptically puckered and stacked along the a crystal axis, in a head-to-tail fashion, forming columns. One primary methoxy group of the host molecule of the complex with indole-3-butyric acid has the unusual trans-gauche conformation for permethylated CDs. All the secondary O-3-CH(3) methoxy groups, some secondary O-2-CH(3) and some primary methoxy groups pointing inwards the cavity enclose the indole or the 2,4-dichlorophenoxy moieties of the guest molecules inside the cavity, while the chains of the guests protrude between two adjacent host molecules of the columns. The mean planes of the indole and 2,4-dichlorophenoxy moieties of the guests are nearly perpendicular to the mean planes of the elliptical heptagons defined by the O-4n atoms of the hosts. The carboxyl group of the guests form hydrogen bonds with oxygen atoms of the host molecules or with the water molecules found in the space between the complexes of the same column. 相似文献

The crystal form III of the beta-cyclodextrin (beta-CD)-ethanol inclusion complex [2(C(6)H(10)O(5))(7).1.5C(2)H(5)OH.19H(2)O] belongs to the triclinic space group P1 with unit cell constants: a=15.430(1), b=15.455(1), c=17.996(1)A, alpha=99.30(1) degrees , beta=113.18(1) degrees , gamma=103.04(1) degrees . beta-CD forms dimers comprising two identical monomers that adopt a 'round' conformation stabilized by intramolecular, interglucose O-3(n)cdots, three dots, centeredO-2(n+1) hydrogen bonds. The two beta-CD monomers of form III are isostructural to that of form I in the monoclinic space group P2(1) [Steiner, T.; Mason, S. A.; Saenger, W. J. Am. Chem. Soc.1991, 113, 5676-5687], but exhibit a striking difference from that of form II in the monoclinic space group C2 [Aree, T.; Chaichit, N. Carbohydr. Res.2003, 338, 1581-1589]. The small guest EtOH molecule orients differently in the large beta-CD cavity. In form III, two disordered EtOH molecules are embedded in the beta-CD-dimer cavity. A half occupied EtOH molecule (#1) is located above the O-4 plane of beta-CD #1, whereas another doubly disordered EtOH molecule (#2, #3) is situated at about the middle of the beta-CD-dimer cavity. The three EtOH sites are maintained in positions by making van der Waals contacts to each other and to the surrounding water sites and beta-CD O-3-H group. The EtOH molecules disordered (occupancy 0.3) above the beta-CD O-4 plane in form I and fully occupied beneath the O-4 plane in form II are strongly held in positions by hydrogen bonding with the surrounding water site and beta-CD O-6-H, O-3-H groups. Occurrence of the beta-CD dimer as a structural motif of channel-type packing (form II) and layer-type packing (form III) is attributed to the higher tendency for self aggregation under the moderate acidic conditions. At weak acidic conditions, beta-CD prefers a herringbone mode (form I). 相似文献

A single crystal X-ray diffraction study of the title complex carried out at room temperature revealed space group P2(1), a = 21.199(12), b = 9.973(3), c = 15.271(8) A, beta = 110.87(3) degrees, V = 3017(3) A3, 4681 unique reflections with Fo greater than 1 sigma (Fo). The structure was refined to R = 0.069, resolution lambda/2sin theta max = 0.89 A. The crystal packing is of the cage type and is isomorphous to that of beta-cyclodextrin (beta CD) dodecahydrate. One 1,4-butanediol and approximately 1.25 water molecules are enclosed in each beta CD cavity. The hydroxyl groups of the 1,4-butanediol molecule are located at each end of the cavity and form hydrogen bonds with neighboring water and beta CD molecules. The flexible (CH2)4 moiety vibrates extensively in the central part of the cavity. Water molecules and hydroxyl groups are chelated between O-6 and O-5 of at least five glucose residues. 相似文献

The inclusion complex of beta-cyclodextrin (beta-CD) with benzoic acid (BA) has been characterized crystallographically. Two beta-CDs cocrystallize with two BAs, 0.7 ethanol and 20.65 water molecules [2(C(6)H(10)O(5))(7).2(C(7)H(6)O(2)).0.7(C(2)H(6)O).20.65H(2)O] in the triclinic space group P1 with unit cell constants: a=15.210(1), b=15.678(1), c=15.687(1) A, alpha=89.13(1), beta=74.64(1), gamma=76.40(1) degrees. The anisotropic refinement of 1840 atomic parameters against 16,201 X-ray diffraction data converged at R=0.078. In the crystal lattice, beta-CD forms dimers stabilized by direct O-2(m)_1/O-3(m)_1...O-2(n)_2/O-3(n)_2 hydrogen bonds (intradimer) and by indirect O-6(m)_1...,O-6(n)_2 hydrogen bonds with one or two bridging water molecules joined in between (interdimer). These dimers are stacked like coins in a roll constructing endless channels where the guest molecules are included. The BA molecules protrude with their COOH groups at the beta-CD O-6-sides and are maintained in positions by hydrogen bonding to the surrounding O-6-H groups and water molecules. Water molecules (20.65) are distributed over 30 positions in the interstices between beta-CD molecules, except the water sites W-1, W-2 that are located in the channel of the beta-CD dimer. Water site W-2 is hydrogen bonded to the disordered ethanol molecule (occupancy 0.7). 相似文献

Heptakis(2,6-di-O-ethyl)-beta-cyclodextrin (DE-beta-CD) was crystallized in two forms from hexane and 95% aqueous methanol, respectively: A form I crystal with the space group P2(1)2(1)2(1) and a form II crystal with the space group P3(1). In both crystals, DE-beta-CD molecules are in a round shape with intramolecular O-3-H...O-2 hydrogen bonds. In the form I crystal, the DE-beta-CD molecules are arranged along the twofold screw axis to form a helically extended polymeric chain by including the 6-O-ethyl groups of the adjacent molecule. One hexane molecule with twofold disorder is located in the intermolecular channel along the a-axis. In contrast, the DE-beta-CD molecules in the form II crystal form a helical arrangement along the threefold screw axis. One methanol and one water molecule are included on the O-6 side of the molecular cavity. The water molecule links the methanol molecule and two ethoxy groups of the adjacent DE-beta-CD molecule with hydrogen bonds. The result suggests the important role of solvent in the formation of helical arrangement of DE-beta-CD molecules. 相似文献

A new crystal form of beta-cyclodextrin (beta-CD)[bond]ethanol[bond]dodecahydrate inclusion complex [(C(6)H(10)O(5))(7).0.3C(2)H(5)OH.12H(2)O] belongs to monoclinic space group C2 (form II) with unit cell constants a=19.292(1), b=24.691(1), c=15.884(1) A, beta=109.35(1) degrees. The beta-CD macrocycle is more circular than that of the complex in space group P2(1) [form I: J. Am. Chem. Soc. 113 (1991) 5676]. In form II, a disordered ethanol molecule (occupancy 0.3) is placed in the upper part of beta-CD cavity (above the O-4 plane) and is sustained by hydrogen bonding to water site W-2. In form I, an ethanol molecule located below the O-4-plane is well ordered because it hydrogen bonds to surrounding O-3[bond]H, O-6[bond]H groups of the symmetry-related beta-CD molecules. In the crystal lattice of form I, beta-CD macrocycles are stacked in a typical herringbone cage structure. By contrast, the packing structure of form II is a head-to-head channel that is stabilized at both O-2/O-3 and O-6 sides of each beta-CD by direct O(CD)...O(CD) and indirect O(CD)...O(W)...(O(W))...O(CD) hydrogen bonds. The 12 water molecules are disordered in 18 positions both inside the channel-like cavity of beta-CD dimer (W-1[bond]W-6) and in the interstices between the beta-CD macrocycles (W-7[bond]W-18). The latter forms a cluster that is hydrogen bonded together and to the neighboring beta-CD O[bond]H groups. 相似文献

beta-Cyclodextrin (beta-CD) crystallizes from 27% DMSO-water as beta-CD.0.5DMSO.7.35H(2)O in the monoclinic space group P2(1) with unit cell constants: a=15.155(1), b=10.285(1), c=20.906(1) A, beta=109.86(1) degrees. Anisotropic refinement of 888 atomic parameters against 9,127 X-ray diffraction data converged at an R-factor of 0.055. The beta-CD macrocycle adopts a 'round' conformation stabilized by intramolecular, interglucose O-3(n) triplebond O-2(n+1) hydrogen bonds. In the beta-CD cavity, DMSO, water sites W-1, W-3 (occupancies 0.5, 0.25, 0.75) are not located concurrently with the water site W-2 because the interatomic distances to W-2 are too short (1.56-1.75 A). DMSO is placed in the beta-CD cavity such that its S-atom is shifted from the O-4 plane center to the beta-CD O-6-side ca. 0.9 A and the C-S bond which is inclined 13.6 degrees to the beta-CD molecular axis. It is maintained in position by hydrogen bonding to water site W-3 and the O-31-H group. 7.35 water molecules are extensively disordered in 13 positions both inside (W-1-W-4) and outside (W-5-W-13) the beta-CD cavity. They act as hydrogen bonding mediators contributing significantly to the stability of the crystal structure. 相似文献

Hexakis(2,6-di-O-methyl)-alpha-cyclodextrin (DIMEA) crystallizes from 1:1 water-acetonitrile as DIMEA-acetonetril-dihydrate in the orthorhombic space group P2(1)2(1)2(1), unit cell dimensions a = 14.2775(5), b = 15.7312(5), c = 31.1494(11) A. Refinement of the structure against 5540 X-ray diffraction data converged at an R factor of 0.083. The macrocycle exhibits a 'round' conformation and is stabilized by intramolecular, interglucose O-3-H(n)...O-2(n + 1) and C-6-H(n)...O-5(n + 1) hydrogen bonds. Acetonitrile is included in the central cavity of DIMEA and held in position by C-5-H...N interactions. The two water molecules in the asymmetric units are distributed over six sites. One is fully occupied due to hydrogen bonding to O-3 groups of two symmetry-related DIMEA molecules, whereas the five remaining sites show occupancies between 0.15 and 0.25. These sites are in hydrogen bonding contact with O...O distances between 2.59 and 3.50 A and are located in infinite, hydrophobic channels parallel to the alpha-axis, which are coated with methyl groups of symmetry-related DIMEA. 相似文献

Crystal and molecular structures of cyclomaltoheptaose inclusion complexes with HI and with methanol
β-Cyclodextrin (β-CD; cyclomaltoheptaose; cyclohepta-amylose; C42H70O35) crystallises from aqueous solutions of HI and of MeOH in the form of stout prisms, which are isomorphous to each other with monoclinic space-group P21; cell constants for C42H70O35 · 2HI · 8 H2O: a = 21.25(3), b = 10.28(2), c = 15.30(2) Å, β = 113.25(9)°, and Z = 2; and for C42H70O35 · MeOH · 6.5 H2O: a = 21.03(3), b = 10.11(2), c = 15.33(2) Å, β = 111.02(9)°, and Z = 2. X-ray counter data were used to determine the structures of both crystals, which belong to the cage type, with β-CD molecules in nearly identical, “round” shapes. In the HI complex, one I- is located inside, and one outside, the β-CD cavity; in the MeOH complex, the MeOH is within the cavity. The cavity is closed at the O-2,O-3 side by adjacent β-CD molecules, and at the O-6 side by water molecules hydrogen-bonded to the guest and to surrounding β-CD molecules. Interstices between β-CD molecules are filled by water of hydration molecules in distorted co-ordination. 相似文献

The 13C CPMAS n.m.r. spectrum of 4-O-beta-D-galactopyranosyl-D-fructose (lactulose) trihydrate, C12H22O11.3 H2O, identifies the isomer in the crystals as the beta-furanose. This is confirmed by a crystal structure analysis, using CuK alpha X-ray data at room temperature. The space group is P212121, with Z = 4 and cell dimensions a = 9.6251(3), b = 12.8096(3), c = 17.7563(4) A. The structure was refined to R = 0.031 and Rw 0.025 for 1929 observed structure amplitudes. All the hydrogen atoms were unambigously located on difference syntheses. The conformation of the pyranose ring is the normal 4C1 chair and that of the furanose ring is 4T3. The 1----4 linkage torsion angles are O-5'-C-1'-O-1'-C-4 = 79.9(2) degrees and C-1'-O-1'-C-4-C-5 = -170.3(2) degrees. All hydroxyls, ring and glycosidic oxygens, and water molecules are involved in the hydrogen bonding, which consists of infinite chains linked together by water molecules to form a three-dimensional network. There is a three-centered intramolecular, interresidue hydrogen bond from O-3-H to O-5' and O-6'. The n.m.r. spectrum of the amorphous, dehydrated trihydrate suggests the occurrence of a solid-state reaction forming the same isomeric mixture as was observed in crystalline anhydrous lactulose, although the mutarotation of the trihydrate when dissolved in Me2SO is very slow. 相似文献

Crystal form II of the beta-cyclodextrin-benzoic acid (beta-CD-BA) inclusion complex was obtained from the 1.5-year stored aqueous EtOH solution of beta-CD and BA as 2beta-CD.1.5BA.0.7EtOH.21H(2)O in the monoclinic space group C2 with unit cell constants: a=19.413(3), b=24.306(4), c=32.975(1)A, beta=104.41(1) degrees . By contrast, the desired crystal form I in the triclinic space group P1 that ever grew up from the fresh solution as 2beta-CD.2BA.0.7EtOH.20.65H(2)O was not reproducible any more [Aree, T.; Chaichit, N. Carbohydr. Res.2003, 338, 439-446]. In the two crystal forms, beta-CDs are isostructural with a 'round' conformation stabilized by intramolecular O-3(n)cdots, three dots, centeredO-2(n+1) hydrogen bonds. The BA inclusion geometries are similar with a preferred orientation, that is, BAs are situated above the O-4 plane, point their COOH groups to the beta-CD O-6 side, incline 52 degrees with respect to the O-4 plane and are mainly maintained in positions by hydrogen bonding with the surrounding water molecules. beta-CDs form dimers as structural motif of different packing modes: the screw-channel type in form II and the average of intermediate and tetrad types in form I. Polymorphism in the beta-CD-BA inclusion complex is a kinetically controlled crystal growth following the Ostwald's rule: the less stable crystal form I grew up first within one week from the fresh solution, whereas the more stable crystal form II appeared after 1.5-year storage. 相似文献

The crystal structures of CaCl(2).galactitol.4 H(2)O and 2EuCl(3).galactitol.14 H(2)O were determined to compare the coordination behavior of Ca and lanthanide ions. The crystal system of the Ca-galactitol complex, CaCl(2).C(6)H(14)O(6).4 H(2)O, is monoclinic, Cc space group. Each Ca ion is coordinated to eight oxygen atoms, four from two galactitol molecules and four from water molecules. Galactitol provides O-2, -3 to coordinate to one Ca(2+), and O-4, -5 with another Ca(2+), to form a chain structure. The crystal system of the Eu-galactitol complex, 2EuCl(3).C(6)H(14)O(6).14 H(2)O, is triclinic, P1; space group. Each Eu ion is coordinated to nine oxygen atoms, three from an alditol molecule and six from water molecules. Each galactitol provides O-1, -2, -3 to coordinate with one Eu(3+) and O-4, -5, -6 with another Eu(3+). The other water molecules are hydrogen-bonded in the structure. The similar IR spectra of Pr-, Nd-, Sm-, Eu-, Dy-, and Er-galactitol complexes show that those lanthanide ions have the same coordination mode to neutral galactitol. The Raman spectra also confirm the formation of metal ion-carbohydrate complexes. 相似文献

The crystal structure of lithium L-ascorbate dihydrate is triclinic, Pl; with a = 5.964(9), b = 5.299(9), c = 7.760(15) A; alpha = 100.82(9), beta = 109.78(9), gamma = 92.02(9) degrees. The plant fragment of the ascorbate anion is a part of the five-membered ring [C-1,C-2,C-3(O-3),C-4], and O-4 deviates by 0.053(2) A from this plane. Deprotonated O-3 is an acceptor of three hydrogen bonds, but does not interact with Li+. The coordination number of the Li+ is 5 and it is bonded to two water molecules and three hydroxyl oxygen atoms of two ascorbate anions: O-2 and the gauche O-5, 6 of the side chain. 相似文献

The crystal structure of 6-azathymine hemihydrate (6AzTH) exhibits a novel intercalation of water molecules interposed half-way between the modified bases 6.3 to 6.7 A apart. The crystal contains four molecules of 6-azathymine (6AzT) and two water molecules as the independent repeating unit. These two water molecules together with the four bases form two separate water sandwiches. In the crystal structure these sandwiches form two sets of local clusters. The anhydrous crystalline form of 6AzT, on the other hand, is stabilized by base stacking interactions. Both the water molecules in 6AzTH that are involved in sandwich formation have trigonal coordination around them. A reexamination of the crystal structure of 5-amino-2-thiocytosine (5A2TC) revealed that one of the water molecules in this structure also forms a water sandwich and has trigonal coordination whereas the other water molecule with tetrahedral coordination does not form a sandwich. The environment and the characteristics of the intercalated water molecule in these structures suggest a possible role for such water intercalations in the dynamics of DNA. Crystals of 6AzTH are monoclinic, space group P21/n, with unit cell parameters a = 8.861 (1), b = 13.177 (3), c = 20.662 (2) A, beta = 93.35 (1) degrees, and Z = 16. From diffractometer data (2503 reflections, greater than or equal to 3 sigma), the crystal structure was solved and refined to an R of 0.056. 相似文献

β-Cyclodextrin (cyclohepta-amylose, β-CD) is a torus-shaped, cyclic heptasaccharide consisting of (1→4)-linked α-d-glucopyranosyl residues. It is able to form inclusion complexes with small molecules in aqueous solution because of its annular aperture (width, 6.2 Å). β-Cyclodextrin dodecahydrate, the “empty” β-CD, crystallises from water in space group P21, with cell constants a = 21.29(2), b = 10.33(1), c = 15.10(2) Å, and β = 112.3(5)°. A total of 5189 X-ray counter-data were collected on a four-circle diffractometer. The crystal structure was solved on the basis of the highly isomorphous β-CD · 2HI · 8H2O adduct, and the atomic parameters were refined by the full matrix, least-squares method to R = 7.3% for all data. The crystal structure belongs to the cage type. The β-CD macrocycle exists in an open, circular conformation stabilised by intramolecular hydrogen-bonds between HO-2 and HO-3 of adjacent glucosyl residues; four of the seven HO-6 groups are in the favoured (?)gauche orientation with respect to O-5, two are in the (+)gauche orientation, and one is disordered over these two orientations. The 6.5 water molecules within the cavity are distributed over 8 sites and display extensive thermal motion which is probably correlated with statistical disorder. 相似文献

The crystal structure of beta-D-glucopyranosyl-(1-->4)-alpha-D-glucopyranose (alpha-cellobiose) in a complex with water and NaI was determined with Mo K(alpha) radiation at 150 K to R=0.027. The space group is P2(1) and unit cell dimensions are a=9.0188, b=12.2536, c=10.9016 A, beta=97.162 degrees. There are no direct hydrogen bonds among cellobiose molecules, and the usual intramolecular hydrogen bond between O-3 and O-5' is replaced by a bridge involving Na+, O-3, O-5', and O-6'. Both Na+ have sixfold coordination. One I(-) accepts six donor hydroxyl groups and three C-H***I(-) hydrogen bonds. The other accepts three hydroxyls, one Na+, and five C-H***I(-) hydrogen bonds. Linkage torsion angles phi(O-5) and psi(C-5) are -73.6 and -105.3 degrees, respectively (phi(H)=47.1 degrees and psi(H)=14.6 degrees ), probably induced by the Na+ bridge. This conformation is in a separate cluster in phi,psi space from most similar linkages. Both C-6-O-H and C-6'-O-H are gg, while the C-6'-O-H groups from molecules not in the cluster have gt conformations. Hybrid molecular mechanics/quantum mechanics calculations show <1.2 kcal/mol strain for any of the small-molecule structures. Extrapolation of the NaI cellobiose geometry to a cellulose molecule gives a left-handed helix with 2.9 residues per turn. The energy map and small-molecule crystal structures imply that cellulose helices having 2.5 and 3.0 residues per turn are left-handed. 相似文献

The cyclic tetrasaccharide cyclo-[-->6)-alpha-D-Glcp-(1-->3)-alpha-D-Glcp-(1-->6)-alpha-D-Glcp-(1-->3)-alpha-D-Glcp-(1-->] is the major compound obtained by the action of endo-alternases on the alternan polysaccharide. Crystals of this cyclo-tetra-glucose belong to the orthorhombic space group P2(1)2(1)2(1) with a = 7.620(5), b = 12.450(5) and c = 34.800(5) A. The asymmetric unit contains one tetrasaccharide together with five water molecules. The tetrasaccharide adopts a plate-like overall shape with a very shallow depression on one side. The shape is not fully symmetrical and this is clearly apparent on comparing the (phi, psi) torsion angles of the two alpha-(1-->6) linkages. There is almost 10 degrees differences in phi and more than 20 degrees differences in psi. The hydrogen bond network is asymmetric, with a single intramolecular hydrogen bond: O-2 of glucose ring 1 being the donor to O-2 of glucose ring 3. These two hydroxyl groups are located below the ring and their orientation, dictated by this hydrogen bond, makes the floor of the plate. Among the five water molecules, one located above the center of the plate occupies perfectly the shallow depression in the plate shape formed by the tetrasaccharide. Molecular dynamics simulation of the tetrasaccharide in explicit water allows rationalization of the discrepancies observed between the X-ray structures and data obtained previously by NMR. 相似文献

The crystal structure of 2NdCl3.galactitol.14H2O has been determined. The crystal system is triclinic, space group: -1, with unit-cell dimensions: a = 9.736(2), b = 10.396, c = 8.027 A; alpha = 108.05(3), beta = 92.68(3), gamma = 88.44(3) degrees, V= 771.6(3) A3, Z = 2. Each Nd atom is coordinated to nine oxygen atoms, three from the alditol and six from water molecules, with Nd-O distances from 2.461 to 2.552 A. The seventh water molecule is hydrogen-bonded by the hydroxyl hydrogen on O-1 (O-1-H-ll...O-10, 2.639 A). The FT-IR spectra of 2NdCl3.galactitol.14H2O and 2PrCl3.galactitol.14H2O are analogous, and show that Pr and Nd have the same coordination mode. The IR results are consistent with the crystal structures. 相似文献

The inclusion complex beta-cyclodextrin.2,7-dihydroxynaphthalene.4.6 H(2)O crystallized in the monoclinic space group P2(1), with a=14.082(3), b=19.079(4), c=12.417(3) A, beta=109.28(3) degrees, V=3149.0(11) A(3), and Z=2. An X-ray study performed at room temperature shows that the crystal packing is of the herringbone type with one 2,7-dihydroxynaphthalene included completely in the beta-CD cavity, its long axis being oriented along the beta-CD molecular axis, and 4.6 water molecules are placed in the interstitial space. The beta-CD macrocycle is elliptically distorted, and the guest molecule is held in the hydrophobic beta-CD cavity by C-H...O and C-H...pi interactions. 相似文献

Dissolution of alpha-cyclodextrin (alpha-CD) in 9:1 water-nitromethane smoothly generates the title compound, which crystallizes as the pentahydrate in the orthorhombic space group P2(1)2(1)2(1) with a = 9.452(4), b = 14.299(3), c = 37.380(10) A, and Z = 4. Its crystal structure analysis revealed the alpha-CD macrocycle in an unstrained conformation stabilized through a ring of O-2...O-3' hydrogen bonds between five of the six adjacent glucose residues. The nitromethane is located in the alpha-CD cavity in an orientation parallel to the plane of the macrocycle, and assumes two sites of equal population with the nitro group in excessive thermal motion; the guest is held by van der Waals contacts and C-H...O-type hydrogen bonds to the pyranose H-3 and H-5 protons. The packing of the macrocycles in the crystal lattice is of cage herringbone-type with an extensive intra- and intermolecular hydrogen bonding network. The ready formation of a nitromethane inclusion complex in aqueous nitromethane, and the subtleties of its molecular structure amply demonstrate the ease with which water is expelled from the alpha-CD cavity by a more hydrophobic co-solvent. 相似文献
