INFRARED SPECTRA AND STRUCTURE OF HYDROGEN BONDS IN N'-SUBSTITUTED ISONICOTINIC HYDRAZIDES FORMED BY CRYSTALLIZATION FROM SOLUTION AND VIA SOLID PHASE TRANSFORMATIONS

Abstract Crystal chemical and IR spectroscopic data for N′-substituted isonicotinic hydrazides (INH) of the general formula Py:C(:O):N(H):N′:C(H):R [R : thineyl, furyl, 5-nitrofuryl, and o-nitrophenyl] have been analysed. Crystalline compounds (hydrates, solvates, solvate hydrates, salts) of a specified composition and structure, i.e. a desired system of intermolecular hydrogen bonds, can be obtained by deliberately varying the solvent composition during synthesis or recrystallization. The systematic effects of substituent R on composition and structure of INH solvates and on their thermodynamic stability have been revealed.

Intra- and intermolecular interactions in crystals ofN′-furfurylideneisonicotinic hydrazide and related compounds. IR spectroscopic and X-ray diffraction studies

The reaction of isonicotinic hydrazide with furfural yieldedN′-furfurylideneisonicotinic hydrazide. IR spectroscopic studies demonstrated that crystallization from different solvents afforded products with an intermolecular NH...O=C hydrogen bond. Conditions of crystallization were chosen under which single crystals with the NH...NPy intermolecular hydrogen bond (1) were grown. X-ray diffraction analysis demonstrated that the molecular and crystal structure of1 is identical to that ofN′-thienylideneisonicotinic hydrazide (2). The crystal structure consists of layers. The molecules in the layers are linked in zigzag chains through NH...NPy intermolecular hydrogen bonds. The molecules of the adjacent chains (in the layer) are linked through C=O...H−C intermolecular hydrogen bonds between the O atom of the carbonyl group and the α-H atom of the furan ring. (In the structure of2, the chains are linked through specific intermolecular interactions of different nature but with approximately identical energy.) The replacement of the thiophene fragment (2) by the furan ring (1) is accompanied by a change in the intramolecular electronic effects, which is reflected both in the geometric and spectral characteristics of the molecules in the crystal.

The influence of the nature of the solvent on the crystal structure and the character of formation of hydrogen bonds inN′-(5-nitrofurfurylidene)isonicotinehydrazide

N′(5-Nitrofurfurylidene)isonicotinehydrazide (1) was synthesized in the reaction of nicotinic acid hydrazide with 5-nitrofurfurol in anhydrous or aqueous ethanol. Crystals of different shape and color were obtained depending on the conditions of synthesis and the nature of the solvent. As was established by IR spectroscopy, compound1 in the crystalline state forms solvates of various types. An X-ray study of two different crystals, one obtained by recrystallization from methanol (1a), and the other obtained from aqueous acetic acid (1b), was performed. In the crystal structure of1a intermolecular hydrogen bonds (IMHB) of the NH...N(Py) type occur; the crystals1b are built of solvates with one molecule of acetic acid in which the components are bonded by the IMHB (Ac)O-H..N(Py). The solvates are linked in an infinite chain by the amidohydrate IMHB C=O...W...H-N.

Rearrangement of the crystal structure during solid-phase elimination of solvate acetic acid fromN′-(5-nitrofurfurylidene)isonicotinic hydrazide monohydrate

A new crystal modification ofN′-(5-nitrofurfurylidene)isonicotinic hydrazide (1) was studied by IR spectroscopy and X-ray structural analysis. The compound studied is the product of solid-phase desolvation of solvate hydrate1 of the composition [MeCOOH · 1 · H2O]. Spontaneous elimination of solvate acetic acid results in complex overall rearrangement of the crystal structure and formation of a new system of intermolecular hydrogen bonds. The crystal hydrate of 1 : 1 composition (1c) was formed from compound1. In the crystal structure of1c molecules1 are linked in infinite chains through intermolecular C=O...W...H-N hydrogen bonds. The second hydrogen atom of the molecule of the crystallization water is involved in formation of an intermolecular O-H...N(Py) hydrogen bond with the nitrogen atom of the pyridine ring of the molecule of the adjacent chain.

Molecular and crystal structures of the products of crystallization of (N′-furfurylidene)isonicotinoylhydrazide from aqueous solutions of hydrochloric and acetic acids

Crystals of (N′-furfurylidene)isonicotinoylhydrazide (I), which have been isolated from a water-methanol solution of hydrochloric acid (Ia) and an aqueous solution (∼50%) of acetic acid (Ib), are studied by X-ray diffraction. In Ia, the nitrogen atom of the pyridine ring is protonated. In the crystal, the intermolecular C=O⋯HN(Py) hydrogen bonds link the I · H+ cations into chains which are bound through centrosymmetric NH⋯W⋯Cl−⋯W′⋯H′N′ bridges. In molecule Ib, no protonation occurs; however, its pyridine N atom is blocked by the hydroxyl H atom of a solvate molecule of acetic acid. Crystals Ib have a layered structure. The crystallization water molecule is involved in the formation of three intermolecular hydrogen bonds, namely, those with the H atom of the amide group and the carbonyl O atoms of molecule I and an acetic acid molecule of the neighboring layer.
