摘要:
A single crystal X-ray diffraction and theoretical study has been carried out on mono hydrates of three 2H-pyrazolo[4,3-c]quinolin-3(5H)-one derivatives, namely 6-methyl-2-phenylpyrazolo[4,3-c]quinolin-3-one, 3, 6-methyl-2(4-chlorophenyl)pyrazolo[4,3-c]quinolin-3-one, 4, and 8-methyl-2-(4-nitrophenyl)pyrazolo[4,3-c]quinolin-3-one, 5. The monohydrates were obtained on recrystallization from moist solvents. While there are three tautomeric forms possible for such pyrazolo[4,3-c]quinolin-3-one molecules, the sole form isolated in the solid [(X)center dot(H2O)] (X = 3, 4 and 5) compounds was the quinoloid form - the one calculated to be the most stable at the M06-2X/6-311++G(d,p) level of theory. Excellent agreement was found between the calculated and X-ray determined structures. Molecule 5 in [(5)center dot(H2O)] is very near planar while both molecules 3 and 4 in their respective hydrates are much less so as a consequence of angles about 24 between the two aromatic rings. In each hydrate, the pyrazolo[4,3-c]quinolin-3-one molecule is bonded to three water molecules and each water molecule is likewise H-bonded to three pyrazolo[4,3-c]quinolin-3-one molecules. While the water molecules are H-bonded to 3 and 4 via the pyridinyl N and 2x the carbonyl 0 atoms, in [(5)center dot(H2O)] the H-bonds are to pyridinyl N, carbonyl 0 and a nitro 0 atoms. Calculations indicated that the found arrangement in [(5)center dot(H2O)] is more stable than one using the connections as found in [(3)center dot(H2O)] and [(4)center dot(H2O)]. While each of the hydrates possess strong N-H center dot center dot center dot O and O-H center dot center dot center dot O hydrogen bonds, and weaker C-H center dot center dot center dot pi and pi center dot center dot center dot pi interactions, the supramolecular arrays are very different.
