Crystal structure of 1,5-diethyl-1H-1,5-benzodiazepine-2,4(3H,5H)-di­thione

Abstract

In the title compound, C₁₃H₁₆N₂S₂, the seven-membered ring adopts a boat conformation, with the two phenyl­ene C atoms representing the stern and the methyl­ene C atom as the prow. The thione S atoms and N-bound ethyl groups lie on the opposite side of the mol­ecule to the phenyl­ene ring so that the mol­ecule approximates mirror symmetry. In the crystal, supra­molecular layers in the bc plane are sustained by a pair of C—H⋯S inter­actions to the same S atom acceptor.

S1. Introduction

Benzodiazepines and their derivatives are an important class of bioactive compound. They have attracted attention of chemists in the field of pharmaceuticals (Kumar et al., 2006). Some benzodiazepine derivatives have been widely used as anti-bacterial, anti-fungal, analgesic and anti-convulsant agents (Swamy et al. 2008).

S2. Synthesis and crystallization

In a round flask, the 1,5 dietthyl benzodiazepine-2,4-diones (2,22 g, 10 ml) and P₂S₅ (4.44 g, 20 ml) were mixed in aceto­nitrile (50 ml). The mixture was refluxed for 4 h. After this time, the solvent was evaporated, and the residue formed was washed with HCl (2 N) solution and distilled water, dried and recrystallised from toluene-chloro­form (90/10). After some days, pale-yellow crystals were isolated (yield: 92.1 %, 2.34 g).

S3. Refinement

Crystal data, data collection and structure refinement details are summarized in Table 1. H-atoms were placed in calculated positions (C—H 0.95–0.99 Å) and were included in the refinement in the riding model approximation, with U_iso(H) = 1.5U_eq(C) for methyl H atoms and 1.2U_eq(C) for all other H atoms.

S4. Results and discussion

The title compound crystallizes in the space group C2/c with one independent molecule in the asymmetric unit (Fig. 1). In the molecule, the diazepine ring system adopts a boat conformation with the two C1 and C6 atoms representing the stern and the C8 atom the prow with maximum deviation of 0.6626 (12)Å. The puckering parameters are: q2=0.9557 (11) Å, q3 = 0.2328 (11) Å, φ2 = 29.60 (7)° and φ3 = 128.4 (3)°. The mean plane of the diazepine ring is twisted with respect to that of the benzene ring by 32.27 (5)°. The geometric parameters of the title compound are comparable to those reported for similar structures (Ourahou et al., 2010).

Special details

Geometry. All e.s.d.'s (except the e.s.d. in the dihedral angle between two l.s. planes) are estimated using the full covariance matrix. The cell e.s.d.'s are taken into account individually in the estimation of e.s.d.'s in distances, angles and torsion angles; correlations between e.s.d.'s in cell parameters are only used when they are defined by crystal symmetry. An approximate (isotropic) treatment of cell e.s.d.'s is used for estimating e.s.d.'s involving l.s. planes.

Refinement. Refinement of F2 against ALL reflections. The weighted R-factor wR and goodness of fit S are based on F2, conventional R-factors R are based on F, with F set to zero for negative F2. The threshold expression of F2 > σ(F2) is used only for calculating R-factors(gt) etc. and is not relevant to the choice of reflections for refinement. R-factors based on F2 are statistically about twice as large as those based on F, and R- factors based on ALL data will be even larger.
