Self-association and stereochemistry study of (5R)-4-methyl-5-phenyl-1,3,4-oxadiazinan-2-one

Abstract

Abstract C10H12N2O2, M r = 191.21, P21, a = 5.5771(7), b = 27.841(3), c = 6.906(1) Å, β = 111.937(9)°, Z = 4, R 1 = 0.0462. The two independent molecules in the asymmetric unit are linked through two very strong quasi centro-symmetric hydrogen bonds. The oxadiazinone rings, of both molecules, show the pyramidal inversion at N-4 nitrogen, thus resulting in a C(R)N(S)—C(R)N(R) diastereomeric pair. The analysis of the IR N-H stretching band (in the solid and in carbon tetrachloride solution) and the 13C NMR experiment at low temperature are in agreement with the X-ray crystal structure.
