Introducing a novel crystal form of pyruvic acid thiosemicarbazone and its sodium salt
摘要:
The reaction of thiosemicarbazide and sodium pyruvate has been thoroughly
studied and the novel crystal form of pyruvic acid thiosemicarbazone (H2pt)
and its sodium salt were obtained. Compounds were characterized by IR
spectra, melting points, elemental analysis and conductometric measurements,
as well as single-crystal X-ray analysis. A detailed comparative analysis of
crystal structures of these compounds is given, as well as comparison with
some of the earlier known complexes containing H2pt. The two novel crystal
structures exhibit notably different hydrogen bonding patterns, mutually and
in comparison with previously reported crystal form of H2pt. All crystal
structures are stabilized by extensive network of N-H...O, O-H...O and
N-H...S hydrogen bonds. The cyclic hydrogen bonding motif involving the
thioureido moieties of the ligand is the only one which repeats in each
structure.
