Unconventional preparation of racemic crystals of isopropyl 3,3,3-trifluoro-2-hydroxypropanoate and their unusual crystallographic structure: the ultimate preference for homochiral intermolecular interactions.

چکیده
This work reports the first example of the transformation of conglomerate (R)- and (S)-crystals into racemic crystals via sublimation. Crystallographic analysis of racemic isopropyl 3,3,3-trifluoro-2-hydroxypropanoate did not reveal the highly expected heterochiral dimer indicating that this compound is capable of forming exclusively homochiral oligomers via infinite multi-centred H-bonding networks.

From Homochiral Clusters to Racemate Crystals: Viable Nuclei in 2D Chiral Crystallization.
The quest for enantiopure compounds raises the question of which factors favor conglomerate crystallization over racemate crystallization. Studying nucleation and crystal growth at surfaces with submolecular-resolution scanning tunneling microscopy is a suitable approach to better understand intermolecular chiral recognition. Racemic heptahelicene on the Ag(100) surface shows a transition from ...
متن کاملSolid tryptophan as a pseudoracemate: physicochemical and crystallographic characterization.
The crystalline nature of solid tryptophan has been characterized by X-ray single crystal and powder diffraction analyses, differential scanning calorimetry, as well as measurement of solid-liquid equilibrium in water/isopropanol solution. Both the thermodynamic and crystallographic investigations have demonstrated unambiguously that solid tryptophan crystallizes in the form of a pseudoracemate...

A series of racemic or stereochemically labile chiral borate anions based on the 2,20-biphenol motif was investigated. All borates were homochiral in the solid state, although in some cases the heterochiral diastereomers were computed to be thermodynamically preferred (DFT). The crystallographic preference for the homochiral diastereomer was attributed to its lower bulk, higher molecular symmet...

The title compound, C(16)H(17)ClF(3)NO(2), was synthesized from 3-[(E)-2-chloro-3,3,3-trifluoro-prop-1-en-yl]-2,2-dimethyl-cyclo-propane-carboxylic acid and 3-methoxy-benzenamine. The propenyl and carboxamide substituents lie on the same side of the cyclo-propane ring plane, with the two methyl substituents on either side of the plane. The benzene ring makes a dihedral angle of 76.4 (3)° with t...
متن کاملValine sulfonamidecinnamic acid asymmetric crystal reactions.
Racemic and homochiral valine sulfonamidecinnamic acids crystallize with components aligned by use of the complementary features of hydrogen bonds and molecular topology to give supramolecular dimers. These discrete motifs effectively organize adjacent olefins for UV initiated single-crystal-to-single-crystal [2+2] photodimerization reactions. The racemic crystals produce inversion related cycl...
