Figure 5
(a) Simplified representation of a molecule of a 5,5-disubstituted derivative of barbituric acid. The same scheme can be applied for analogous thiobarbiturates such as (I) and (II) if the O atom of the carbonyl group in position 2 is replaced by a thioxo S atom. (b) and (c) Schematic representation of the N—H⋯O=C-bonded chain types C-1 and C-2 with an underlying 2C1 topology, which are frequently found in barbiturates. The thiobarbiturates (I) and (II) contain chains of the C-2 type. |
