RESUMEN
The reaction of lithium hexa-methyl-disilyl-amide, [Li{N(Si(CH3)3)2}] (LiHMDS), with 4,4-dimethyl-2-phenyl-2-oxazoline (Phox, C11H13NO) in hexane produced colourless crystals of bis-(4,4-dimethyl-2-phenyl-2-oxazoline-κN)(hexa-methyl-disilyl-amido-κN)lithium, [Li(C6H18NSi2)(C11H13NO)2] or [Li{N(Si(CH3)3)2}(Phox)2] in high yield (89%). Despite the 1:1 proportion of the starting materials in the reaction mixture, the product formed with a 1:2 amide:oxazoline ratio. In the unit cell of the C2/c space group, the neutral mol-ecules lie on twofold rotation axes coinciding with the Li-N(amide) bonds. The lithium(I) centre adopts a trigonal-planar coordination geometry with three nitro-gen donor atoms, one from the HMDS anion and two from the oxazolines. All ligands are monodentate. In the phenyl-oxazoline units, the dihedral angle defined by the five-membered heterocyclic rings is 35.81â (5)°, while the phenyl substituents are approximately face-to-face, separated by 3.908â (5)â Å. In the amide, the methyl groups assume a nearly eclipsed arrangement to minimize steric repulsion with the analogous substituents on the oxazoline rings. The non-covalent inter-actions in the solid-state structure of [Li{N(Si(CH3)3)2}(Phox)2] were assessed by Hirshfeld surface analysis and fingerprint plots. This new compound is attractive for catalysis due to its unique structural features.
RESUMEN
Carb-oxy-hydrazides are widely used in medicinal chemistry because of their medicinal properties and many drugs have been developed containing this functional group. A suitable inter-mediate to obtain potential hydrazide drug candidates is the title compound 5-hy-droxy-penta-nehydrazide, C5H12N2O2 (1). The aliphatic compound can react both via the hydroxyl and hydrazide moieties forming derivatives, which can inhibit Mycobacterium tuberculosis catalase-peroxidase (KatG) and consequently causes death of the pathogen. In this work, the hydrazide was obtained via a reaction of a lactone with hydrazine hydrate. The colourless prismatic single crystals belong to the ortho-rhom-bic space group Pca21. Regarding supra-molecular inter-actions, the compound shows classic medium to strong inter-molecular hydrogen bonds involving the hydroxyl and hydrazide groups. Besides, the three-dimensional packing also shows weak Hâ¯H and Câ¯H contacts, as investigated by Hirshfeld surface analysis (HS) and fingerprint plots (FP).
