Exploring a solvated dimer of Gefitinib: a quantitative analysis.
Gefitinib or Iressa is an orally administered anilinoquinazoline used in cancer chemotherapy for the treatment of lung and breast cancer. It is reported to exist in two polymorphic forms, a stable form I and a metastable form II. Both of the forms belong to the triclinic P-1 space group. In this work, we report the crystallization of Gefitinib to form a methanol solvate [systematic name: N-(3-chloro-4-fluorophenyl)-7-methoxy-6-[3-(morpholin-4-yl)propoxy]quinazolin-4-amine methanol hemisolvate, C22H24ClFN4O3·0.5CH3OH] that was theoretically and experimentally investigated. The unit cell is composed of two independent Gefitinib molecules (A and B) that form a stable molecular complex with methanol in the crystal lattice. To understand the crystal lattice stabilization, a combination of techniques, namely X-ray diffraction, IR spectroscopy, thermogravimetric/differential scanning calorimetry (TG-DSC), Hirshfeld surface analysis and CLP-PIXEL methods were used. The analysis of the crystal structure of this dimer revealed a three-dimensional isostructurality with the already reported form II. The A and B molecules are connected via trifurcated C-H...O and N-H...O hydrogen bonding. In addition, the presence of the methanol molecule stabilizes the crystal structure via C-H...O, N-H...O and C-H...Cl interactions between the two monomers. The IR analysis of the dimer has shown characteristic fingerprint values when compared to the commercial form. The TG-DSC analysis of the solvated dimer is in good agreement with the patent reporting cocrystals of Gefitinib. Finally, theoretical calculations by the CLP-PIXEL method and Hirshfeld surface and two-dimensional (2D) fingerprint plot analysis were carried out in order to quantify the different intermolecular interactions and their energies in the crystal packing.

Methyl 4-hydroxybenzoate, commonly known as methyl paraben, is an anti-microbial agent used in cosmetics and personal-care products, and as a food preservative. In this study, the single crystal X-ray structure of methyl 4-hydroxybenzoate was determined at 120 K. The crystal structure comprises three methyl 4-hydroxybenzoate molecules condensed to a 3D framework via extensive intermolecular hydrogen bonding. Hirshfeld surface analysis was performed to determine the intermolecular interactions and the crystal packing. In addition, computational calculations of methyl 4-hydroxybenzoate were obtained using the Gaussian 09W program, and by quantum mechanical methods, Hartree Fock (HF) and Density Functional Theory (DFT) with the 6–311G(d,p) basis set. The experimental FT-IR spectrum strongly correlated with the computed vibrational spectra (R2 = 0.995). The energies of the frontier orbitals, HOMO and LUMO, were used to calculate the chemical quantum parameters. The lower band gap value (ΔE) indicates the molecular determinants underlying the known pharmaceutical activity of the molecule.

Herein, a new Ni(II) carboxylate polymer, [Ni(Pyr).4H 2 O]Phth , is synthesized by the reaction of NiSO 4 .7H 2 O with equimolar amounts of phthalic acid (PhthH 2 ) as the counter-anion and pyrazine (Pyr) as an ancillary ligand in aqueous media. The crystal structure of [Ni(Pyr).4H 2 O]Phth is investigated by single crystal X-rays diffraction analysis, which inferred the ionic nature of the complex. In cation, the Ni-center is coordinated by two pyrazine rings and four water molecules to form an octahedral coordination geometry. The crystal structure exists as a one-dimensional polymeric structure. The crystal packing is stabilized by OH O and CH O bonding. The non-covalent interactions are investigated by Hirshfeld surface analysis. The enrichment ratio delivers the tendency of the interaction of the pair of chemical moieties, which are involved in the packing of crystals. Moreover, void analysis is executed to look at the packing efficiency, which helps in predicting the mechanical response of the compound.

A new organic–inorganic hybrid material of formula (C10H15N2)7 Sb2Cl10 Sb2Cl9 (SbCl5)2 SbCl4 2Cl·7H2O was synthesized and characterized by an X-ray diffraction analysis. It crystallizes in the triclinic system with the P $$\bar{1}$$ space group and the following unit cell parameters a = 11.8127(3) A, b = 15.7557(4) A, c = 35.4511(8) A, α = 89.409(1)°, β = 84.04(1)°, γ = 71.116(1)°, Z = 2 and V = 6207.3(3) A3. The examination of the structure shows that the two dimensional frameworks are produced by O–H Cl, N–H⋯Cl and N–H⋯O hydrogen bonding. In addition, the most important features of crystal packing and intermolecular interactions in the title complex were quantified via Hirshfeld surface analysis. Differential scanning calorimetry has revealed a dehydration phenomenon at around 348 K. The investigation of the antioxidant activity of the title compound was carried out using the 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl and ferrous iron chelating methods.
