Control of the Type of Stereoisomeric Recognition in the 3,4-Dihalo-5-Hydroxy-1,5-Dihydro-2H-Pyrrol-2-One Series by Varying the Halogen Nature in the Molecule
摘要
Abstract
The structure of two nitrogen-containing heterocyclic analogs of mucochloric and mucobromic acids - 3,4-dichloro- and 3,4-dibromo-5-hydroxy-1,5-dihydro-2H-pyrrol-2-ones - is studied. It is established by XRD that the crystals of the two pyrrolinones are not isostructural, despite their similar molecular geometries and the same space group P21/c. On the contrary, the type of stereoisomeric recognition and, consequently, the crystal lattice architecture can be controlled by varying the halogen nature.
