Abstract:
The title compound, C(14)H(16)N(2)O(3), belongs to a group of esters of 2-oxo- and 1,2,3,4-tetra-hydro-pyrimidine-5-carboxylic acids, which exhibit a wide spectrum of biological activities. The dihydro-pyrimidine ring adopts a screw-boat conformation. The crystal packing is stabilized by strong N-H⋯O and weak C-H⋯O inter-molecular hydrogen bonds. An intra-molecular C-H⋯O hydrogen bond is also present.

01:18Aromatic Hydrocarbon Cations: Structural Overview
Cycloheptatriene is a neutral monocyclic unsaturated hydrocarbon that consists of an odd number of carbon atoms and an intervening sp3 carbon in the ring. The three double bonds in the ring correspond to 6 π electrons, which is a Huckel number, and therefore satisfies the criteria of 4n + 2 π electrons. However, the intervening sp3 carbon disrupts the continuous overlap of p orbitals. As a result, cycloheptatriene is not aromatic.

01:13Five-Membered Heterocyclic Aromatic Compounds: Overview
Heterocyclic aromatic compounds are cyclic compounds that are aromatic and have one or more heteroatoms—atoms other than carbon, in the ring. Depending upon the number of atoms present in the ring, they can be either five or six-membered. Examples of five-membered heterocyclic aromatic compounds include pyrrole, furan, thiophene, and imidazole. Pyrrole consists of one nitrogen atom having one lone pair of electrons. Furan and thiophene have one oxygen and one sulfur heteroatom, respectively.
