S,S-1,2-Dicyclohexylethane-1,2-diol and its racemic compound: a striking exception to Wallach's rule.

چکیده
The structures of enantiopure S,S-1,2-dicyclohexylethane-1,2-diol and its racemic compound (rac-S,S-1,2-dicyclohexylethane-1,2-diol) have been determined at 295 and 173 K. The crystals of the enantiopure material are more than 4% denser than the crystals of the racemic compound, but the melting points indicate that the crystals of the less dense racemic compound are considerably more stable than those of the racemic conglomerate. This apparent exception to the correlation of crystal density and melting point is explained. The enantiopure crystals have four molecules in the asymmetric unit (Z' = 4). Two of the molecules have the conformation observed for the one independent molecule of the racemic compound and two have a higher energy conformation; the overall P2(1) structure is a perturbed version of a P2(1)2(1)2(1) structure with Z' = 2. The enantiopure and racemic crystals have the same hydrogen-bonding motif, but the motif in the former appears to be significantly strained. A reason why crystals of enantiopure material might be systematically less dense than crystals of its racemic compound and to be more likely to have Z' > 1 is suggested.

متن کاملTumorigenicity of enantiomers of chrysene 1,2-dihydrodiol and of the diastereomeric bay-region chrysene 1,2-diol-3,4-epoxides on mouse skin and in newborn mice.
The tumorigenicity of chrysene, (+)and (-)-frans-1,2-dihydroxy-1,2-dihydrochrysene (chrysene 1,2-dihydrodiol), and the ( + )and (—)-enantiomers of the diastereomeric bay-region chrysene 1,2-diol-3,4-epoxides was assessed in two tumor models. A single topical application of 0.4 or 1.2 /¿mol of the chrysene derivatives on mouse skin followed by 25 weeks of promotion with 12-O-tetradecanoylphor...

متن کاملHigh stereoselectivity in mouse skin metabolic activation of methylchrysenes to tumorigenic dihydrodiols.
The stereoselectivity of mouse skin metabolic activation to dihydrodiols of the strong carcinogen 5-methylchrysene (5-MeC) and the weak carcinogen 6-methylchrysene (6-MeC) was investigated. Synthetic 1,2-dihydro-1,2-dihydroxy-5-methylchrysene (5-MeC-1,2-diol), 5-MeC-7,8-diol, and 6-MeC-1,2-diol were resolved into their R,R- and S,S-enantiomers by chiral stationary phase high performance liquid ...
متن کاملToxicokinetics and metabolism of 1,2-diethylbenzene in male Sprague Dawley rats--part 2: evidence for in vitro and in vivo stereoselectivity of 1,2-diethylbenzene metabolism.
In a previous study, it was shown that the neurotoxic compound 1,2-diethylbenzene (1,2-DEB) is mainly hydroxylated in the alkyl chain to give 1-(2'-ethylphenyl)ethanol (1,2-EPE) and excreted in urine of rats as two glucuronide compounds (GA1 and GA2). Some findings have suggested that the two enantiomers of 1,2-EPE are formed in vivo. In the present study, a chiral high-performance liquid chrom...
