The title compound, C
8H
9NS, has four symmetry-independent molecules in the asymmetric unit. These molecules link into two independent infinite N-H
S hydrogen-bonded chains in the
a-axis direction with graph-set notation
C22(8). The NH-CS group adopts a
trans conformation and forms a dihedral angle of about 50° with the phenyl ring. The intermolecular hydrogen-bond energy calculated by the density functional theory (DFT) method is -14.95 kJ mol
-1. The correlation between the IR spectrum of this compound and the hydrogen-bond energy is also discussed. This molecular system is of interest because of its biological function.

Thioacetanilide was purchased from Sigma–Aldrich and used without further
purification. It was dissolved in a water–acetone mixture (1:1
v/v). After several days, yellow single crystals of (I) had
formed, which proved to be suitable for single-crystal X-ray diffraction
analysis. The crystals were mounted on a quartz glass capillary and cooled to
120 K with a cold dry nitrogen gas stream (Oxford Cryosystems equipment); the
temperature stability was ±0.1 K. The IR spectrum of a polycrystalline sample
of (I) was measured in transmission at room temperature using the KBr pellet
technique on a Nicolet Magna 560 FT–IR spectrometer with 4 cm-1 resolution.
The H atoms of the phenyl rings and of the methyl group were treated as riding
on their parent atoms, with C—H = 0.95 or 0.98 Å, respectively, and with
Uiso(H) = 1.2 or 1.5 times Ueq(C), respectively. H atoms
involved in hydrogen bonding were located in a difference Fourier map
(ΔF) and refined freely with isotropic temperature factors.

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. |

The title compound, (I), belongs to the thioamides, which have a thiol and a carbonyl group capable of forming hydrogen bonds. The objects of our research are the IR spectra of thioamide crystals in the frequency range of the proton and deuteron stretching vibrations in hydrogen bonds. Characteristic isotopic and spectroscopic effects, called self-organization effects, are observed in this vibration frequency range (Flakus, 1989, 2003; Flakus & Bańczyk, 1999). As a result of structural and polarized IR spectroscopic investigations of hydrogen-bonded molecular systems, an even richer set of data concerning the complexity of νX—H band-generation mechanisms could be obtained. Measurements of the polarized IR spectra of diverse spatially oriented hydrogen-bond systems present in the lattices of molecular crystals allow us to estimate the polarization properties of the transitions, found in the excited states of proton vibrations in the crystal structures, which contribute to the νX—H band-generation mechanisms in the crystalline spectra. Thus, for a reliable interpretation of the reasons for the self-organization mechanism, the crystal structure of the hydrogen-bonded system must be known. In the case of (I), a crystallographic study has not been reported until now.
In this article, the result of our structural studies of the hydrogen bonds of (I) is presented. This molecular system is of central interest for researchers, as (I) is one of the smaller molecules with a thiopeptide group, capable of associating with other thiopeptide groups to form hydrogen bonds. The biological function of (I) has attracted interest in recent years. Thus, the metabolism and acute toxicity of (I) have been studied in the rat (Trennery & Warning, 1983). The proton magnetic resonance and IR spectra of solutions of (I) have been reported (Birchall & Gillespie, 1963; Galabov et al., 2003). The conformational stability of the thioamide group in (I) has been discussed using density functional theory (DFT) (Galabov et al., 2003).
Compound (I) crystallizes with four molecules in the asymmetric unit (Fig. 1). All four molecules adopt the trans conformation of the –NH—CS– group with comparable bond lengths and angles. The N—C(═S) and C═S bond lengths are in the region of 1.329 and 1.675 Å, respectively, and compare well with those of related compounds in the literature [References and examples?]. These lengths are also in good agreement with those calculated at the B3LYP/6–31G** level of theory (Galabov et al., 2003). The CS—NH group is almost planar in each molecule and the dihedral angles with the phenyl ring plane are in the range 45–53°. The calculated dihedral angle between the aromatic ring and the NH—CS group is in the region of 0 (180)°. This is a very surprising fact, because in the literature the trans isomer is reported to be almost planar with deviations from planarity smaller than 3° (Galabov et al., 2003). A search of the Cambridge Structural Database (CSD, Version 5.28; Conquest Version 1.9; Allen, 2002) was carried out to check the reported angle. This angle varies in related compounds, such as formanilide (Omondi et al., 2008), acetanilide (Brown, 1966) and larger molecules with a thioacetamide group such as (Z)-N-(2-t-butylphenyl)propanethioamide (Dantale et al., 2002), in which this dihedral angle could adopt a larger value.
For a comparison of the bond lengths and angles with other thioacetanilide derivatives, a search of the CSD yielded only one structure, thioacetanilide-S-oxide [CSD refcode SACANO (Jarchow, 1969) and SACANO01 (Kraeft, 1967)]. In that compound, the thioacetanilide is found in the cis form of the –NH—CS– group. A comparison of the bond lengths and angles indicates that the N1—C1 and C1—S1 bond lengths and N1—C7—S1 and N1—C7—C8 angles are mostly affected by the atom type bound to the S atom: H in (I) by hydrogen bonding, and O in thioacetanilide-S-oxide.
In the crystal structure of (I), the molecules interact via N—H···S hydrogen bonds to form four different infinite zigzag chains parallel to the a axis with graph-set notation C11(4) and C22(8) (Fig. 2) (Bernstein et al., 1990; Grell et al., 1999). The values of the hydrogen-bond distances are in the range 3.0–4.0 Å and therefore they can be treated as weak hydrogen bonds (Desiraju & Steiner, 1999). The strength of the hydrogen bonds in this compound was also investigated by IR spectroscopy. The band of the isolated N—H stretching vibration, νN—H, is located at a frequency of 3400 cm-1. In the case of (I), we observed this band in the frequency range 3200–2800 cm-1 with the shift of about 400 cm-1 (Fig. 3). This relative shift is larger than 5% and is characteristic for a strong hydrogen bond (Desiraju & Steiner, 1999). Thus, the energy of the intermolecular hydrogen bonds was also calculated.
The initial geometry of (I) was optimized using the MM+ molecular modelling method implemented in HYPERCHEM (Hypercube, 1998). In the next step, the DFT calculations were performed using the GAUSSIAN03 software package (Frisch et al., 2003) with the B3LYP hybrid function. The theoretical investigation of the hydrogen bonds was performed using GAUSSIAN03 at the B3LYP/6–31G** level of theory. A cluster (57 atoms) consisted of three neighbouring molecules of (I) with two intermolecular hydrogen bonds, N1—H···S2 and N2—H···S3. The energy of the intermolecular hydrogen bonds was calculated and corrected to basis set superposition error (BSSE) using a standard procedure (Boys & Bernardi, 1970). The total energy of the two hydrogen bonds was estimated at -29.9 kJ mol-1. This value indicates that the hydrogen bonds are strong (Desiraju & Steiner, 1999). Calculated hydrogen-bond distances for these two intermolecular hydrogen bonds (N1—H···S2 and N2—H···S3) were N—H = 1.019 and 1.018 Å, H···S = 2.692 and 2.746 Å, and N···S = 3.677 and 3.764 Å, respectively. The calculated N—H···S angles for these hydrogen bonds were 162.2 and 177.1°, respectively. The obtained values of the hydrogen-bond geometry correspond well with the experimental data.
Our knowledge of the hydrogen-bond geometry enables us to recognize the type of self-organization mechanism. Therefore, we plan to carry out further studies on the polarized IR spectra of this compound and its isotopic derivatives.
