N-(4-Chloro-1,3-benzothia-zol-2-yl)-2-(3-methyl-phen-yl)acetamide monohydrate
Abstract:
In the title compound, C(16)H(13)ClN(2)OS·H(2)O, the dihedral angle between the mean planes of the benzothia-zole ring system and the methylphenyl ring is 79.3 (6)°. The crystal packing features inter-molecular O-H⋯N, O-H⋯O and N-H⋯O hydrogen bonds involving the water mol-ecule and weak C-H⋯O, C-H⋯Cg and π-π stacking inter-actions [centroid-centroid distances = 3.8743 (7), 3.7229 (7) and 3.7076 (8) Å].

Nomenclature of Carboxylic Acid Derivatives: Amides and Nitriles
The IUPAC and common names of amides are derived from the parent carboxylic acid, by replacing the suffix “oic acid” and “ic acid,” respectively, with “amide.” In the following example, the IUPAC name ethanamide is derived from ethanoic acid, and the common name, acetamide, is obtained from acetic acid.
Nomenclature of Aromatic Compounds with a Single Substituent
Nomenclature of Aromatic Compounds with Multiple Substituents
For disubstituted benzene derivatives, with two groups attached to the benzene ring, three constitutional isomers are possible. For example, consider dimethyl benzene, often called xylene, where the second methyl group can be substituted at the second, third, or fourth carbon. The relative position of the substituents is represented by prefixes ortho, meta, or...

Adrenergic Agonists: Chemistry and Structure-Activity Relationship
Aromatic ring substitutions: Substituting the aromatic ring with –OH groups at positions 3 and 4 yields catecholamines (e.g., epinephrine), which have a high affinity for adrenoceptors. Hydrogen bonding between –OH groups and receptors enhances adrenergic activity.
