The title compound, C15H18N4O7, was prepared by addition of a solution of 5,5-dibromo-1,3-dimethylbarbituric acid (Sweidan et al., 2010), (0.74g, 2.4 mmol) in 10 mL of acetone to a solution of sodium sulfide (0.19g, 2.4 mmol) in 15 mL of water at room temperature. After the reaction mixture was stirred overnight, the precipitate was filtered off and dried in vacuo. The yield after recrystallisation from dichloromethane/diethyl ether was 0.24g (22%) as colorless crystals.
Hydrogen atoms were included in the
at calculated positions C—H = 0.95–1.00 Å and with Uiso(H) = 1.2Ueq(aromatic C) or 1.5Ueq(aliphatic C), using a riding-model approximation.Data collection: CAD-4 Software (Enraf–Nonius, 1998); cell

Geometry. All esds (except the esd in the dihedral angle between two l.s. planes) are estimated using the full covariance matrix. The cell esds are taken into account individually in the estimation of esds in distances, angles and torsion angles; correlations between esds in cell parameters are only used when they are defined by crystal symmetry. An approximate (isotropic) treatment of cell esds is used for estimating esds 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 > 2sigma(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. |

Many 1,3-dimethylbarbituric acid derivatives play important roles in the areas of pharmaceutical and medicinal chemistry (Bojarski et al., 1985; Sans & Chosaz, 1988). In the target molecule, two moieties of the 1,3-dimethylbarbiturate anion were attached to the same carbon of the acetone molecule and hydrogen sulfide and sodium bromide were produced during the course of the reaction. It is clear that each barbiturate ring adopts a keto form rather than the enol form as indicated by the bond angles C1-C2-C3 (116.1 (3)°), C3-C2-C13 (109.1 (2)°) and C1-C2-C13 (115.5 (2)°) for one barbiturate ring and C7-C8-C13 (112.6 (3)°), C9-C8-C13 (114.4 (3)°) and C7-C8-C9 (116.31 (3)°) for the second one. In addition, the bond lengths C12-C13 (153.7 (4) pm) and C13-C8 (154.3 (4) pm) lie within the normal range for a carbon-carbon (sp3-sp3) single bond length. Due to the steric bulk of the barbiturate rings, the bond angle C2-C13-C8 (116.2 (2)°) is noticeably larger than C2-C13-C14 (110.4 (3)°) or C8-C13-C14 (113.0 (3)°).
