A polymorph of 2,4-dinitrophenylhydrazine
نویسندگان
چکیده
The crystal structure of a previously unreported polymorph (form II) of 2,4-dinitro-phenyl-hydrazine (DNPH), C6H6N4O4, was determined at 90 K. The first polymorph (form I) is described in the monoclinic space group P21/c [Okabe et al. (1993 ▶). Acta Cryst. C49, 1678-1680; Wardell et al. (2006 ▶). Acta Cryst. C62, o318-320], whereas form II is in the monoclinic space group Cc. The mol-ecular structures in forms I and II are closely similar, with the nitro groups at the 2- and 4-positions being almost coplanar with the benzene ring [dihedral angles of 3.54 (1) and 3.38 (1)°, respectively in II]. However, their packing arrangements are completely different. Form I exhibits a herringbone packing motif, whereas form II displays a coplanar chain structure. Each chain in form II is connected to adjacent chains by the inter-molecular inter-action between hydrazine NH2 and 2-nitro groups, forming a sheet normal to (101). The sheet is stabilized by N-H⋯π inter-actions.

متن کاملA second monoclinic polymorph of N-(2,4-dinitrophenyl)-2,4-dinitroaniline
The title compound, C(12)H(7)N(5)O(8), was previously described in space group P2(1)/n with Z = 4 [Wu et al. (2007 ▶). Acta Cryst. E63, o4194]. The current monoclinic P2(1)/c polymorph was obtained from a mixed solution of dichloro-methane and hexane. The dihedral angle between the benzene rings is 44.16 (5)°, smaller than in the previously reported polymorph [56.3 (2)°]. As a result of the ste...

The title compound, C13H10N2O7S, was synthesized via a nucleophilic substitution reaction between 2,4-di-nitro-phenol and p-toluene-sulfonyl chloride. This crystal structure is a polymorph of CSD entry WUVYUH [Vembu et al. (2003). Acta Cryst, E59, o378-380]. The aromatic substituents on the sulfonate group are oriented gauche to one another with a C-O-S-C torsion angle of -62.0 (3)°. The supra-...

The title compound, C(15)H(22)N(2)O(3), was obtained as a by-product of oxidative cleavage of 1,3-dicyclo-hexyl-(3-oxo-2,3-dihydro-benzofuran-2-yl)imidazolidine-2,4-dione. Herein, we report the crystal structure of a second polymorph, which was obtained by crystallization from an ethanol solution at 253 K, instead of slow evaporation of the same solvent at room temperature. While the first poly...
متن کاملA second monoclinic polymorph of 2,4-dimethylanilinium chloride
A second monoclinic polymorph of 2,4-dimethyl-anilinium chloride, C(8)H(12)N(+)·Cl(-), (I), is reported. The unit-cell dimensions differ from those of the first reported monoclinic form, (II) [Yao (2010 ▶). Acta Cryst. E66, o1563]. Nevertheless, both compounds crystallize in the monoclinic space group P2(1)/n. As in (II), the protonated amine group in (I) acts as a hydrogen-bond donor to the ch...
