Abstract top

The title compound, C20H25NO4, was synthesized by a Mitsunobu reaction of sinomenine [(9S,13R,14R)-7,8-didehydro-4-hydroxy-3,7-dimethoxy-17-methylmorphinan-6-one] with methanol. The chiral centers were unchanged during the reaction. Intramolecular C-H...O hydrogen bonds result in the formation of six-membered rings.

Comment top

(9S,13R,14R)-7,8-Didehydro-3,4,7-trimethoxy-17-methylmorphinan-6-one (I) is a derivative of natural sinomenine. Sinomenine was reported possessing anti-inflammatory, antitussive and antiarrgythmic activities (Wang et al., 1965). We report here the crystal structure of I.

The molecular structure of I is shown in Fig. 1. The X-ray diffraction results show that I is a tetracyclic alkaloid with three chiral centers. The piperidine ring is in a chair conformation, and the other two six-membered aliphatic rings are in twisted boat conformation.

The intramolecular C—H···O hydrogen bonds(C5—H5A···O1, C16—H16A···O1 and C18—H18B···O2) result in the formation of six-membered rings, which may be effective to the stabilization of the crystals.

Experimental top

(9S,13R,14R)-7,8-Didehydro-4-hydroxy-3,7-dimethoxy-17-methylmorphinan-6-one (5 mmol, 1.65 g), triphenyl phosphine (10 mmol, 2.62 g) and absolute methanol (1 ml) were added in tetrahydrofuran(THF, 50 ml). Diethyl azodicarboxylate(10 mmol, 1.74 g) was added in dropwise during a period of 30 min. The solution was continuosly stirred for another 12 h. The solution was concentrated under reduced pressure and the residue was purified by column chromatography on silca gel(60–100 mesh) using ethyl acetate/triethylamine (V/V = 10:1). White product was obtained by crystallization from isopropyl ether. Crystals of the product suitable for X-ray diffraction were obtained by slow evaporation of methanol solution.

Refinement top

All H atoms were positioned geometrically, with C—H=0.98, 0.97, 0.96 and 0.93 Å for methine, methylene, methyl and aromatic H atoms,respectively, and constrained to ride on their parent atoms, with Uiso(H)=xUeq(C), where x=1.5 for methyl H atoms and x=1.2 for all other H atoms. In the absence of significant anomalous dispersion effects, Friedel pairs were merged by using the instruction of "MERG 3".

Special details top

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.
