Hn. Dearmas et al., STRUCTURE OF O-METHYLEN)-O-METHOXYPHENYL-4-OXO-1,3-THIAZOLIDINE, Boletin de la Sociedad Chilena de Quimica, 41(2), 1996, pp. 189-194
The reaction of the amines with 2,4-bis (carboethoxy-cyano-methylen)-1
, 3-dithioethane yields the thiazolidones, The structure of 2-(carboet
hoxy-cyano-methylen)-o-methoxy phenyl-4-oxo-1,3-thiazolidine, C15H14N2
O4S, has been determined from X-ray diffraction data. Crystals are ort
horhombic, space group: P212121; a = 7.410(1)Angstrom, b = 11.969(2)An
gstrom, c = 17.036(2)Angstrom; Z = 4. The crystal structure is stabili
zed by van der Waals forces. There is a close van der Waals contact in
packing between C5--H5...N1 (N1...H5b 2.549(8)Angstrom). The rings in
the molecule are essentially planars. There are no intramolecular or
intermolecular hydrogen bonds.
