Brucine and two solvates

A. Bialonska and Z. Ciunik

Abstract: The crystal structures of brucine (2,3-dimethoxystrychnidin-10-one), C₂₃H₂₆N₂O₄, brucine acetone solvate, C₂₃H₂₆N₂O₄·C₃H₆O, and brucine 2-propanol solvate dihydrate, C₂₃H₂₆N₂O₄·C₃H₇O·2H₂O, have been determined. Crystals of brucine and its 2-propanol solvate dihydrate exhibit similar monolayer sheet packing, whereas crystals of the acetone solvate adopt a different mode of packing, as brucine pillars. The solvent appears to control the brucine self-assembly on the basis of common donor-acceptor properties of the surfaces.

Formula: C₂₃H₂₆N₂O₄, C₂₃H₂₆N₂O₄·C₃H₆O and C₂₃H₂₆N₂O₄·C₃H₈O·2H₂O
