Abstract

The molecular structure of 3,3-bisazidomethyloxetane, C 5H 8N 6O, has been investigated by electron diffraction. With the use of theoretical amplitudes of vibration, the molecular distances and conformation were determined by least-squares analysis. The average bond distances, r g, are: CN = 1.470(9), CC = 1.547(3), CO = 1.458(7), CH = 1.110(6) A. The geometric parameters NN avg. = 1.191(2) and NN diff = 0.098(2) A determine the values NN = 1.240(2) and NN = 1.142(2) A for the terminal bond in the azide groups. Average bond angles are: ∠C rC rC r (ring carbons, C r) = 87.3(1.4)°, C mC rC m (methyl carbons, C m) = 108.9(2.3)°, ∠C rC mN = 111.4(1.2)°, ∠C nNN = 119.2(1.0)°, ∠HCH = 110.0° (assumed), ∠NNN = 180.0° (assumed); torsion angles, ∠C rC mNN = −126.8(3.0)°, ∠C mC rC mN = 69.3(3.0)°. The oxetane ring is planar within experimental error.
