Abstract:
The title compound (trivial name moexipril hydro-chloride) crystallizes as the aceto-nitrile monosolvate, C27H35N2O7 (+)·Cl(-)·C2H3N, with the salt comprising a U-shaped cation and a chloride anion. The conformation of the cation is stabilized by a weak intra-molecular N(+)-H⋯O hydrogen bond and the tetra-hydro-pyridine ring adopts a boat conformation. The dihedral angle between the planes of the benzene rings is 85.6 (1)°. In the crystal, the cations and anions form tight ionic pairs by strong inter-molecular O-H⋯Cl hydrogen bonds. C-H⋯Cl and C-H⋯N hydrogen bonds link these ionic pairs and the aceto-nitrile solvate mol-ecules into puckered layers parallel to (100).

Structures of Carboxylic Acid Derivatives
Carboxylic acid derivatives contain an acyl group attached to a heteroatom such as chlorine, oxygen, or nitrogen. The carbonyl carbon and oxygen are both sp2-hybridized with an unhybridized p orbital.
The three sp2 orbitals of the carbonyl carbon form three σ bonds, one each with the carbonyl oxygen, the α carbon, and the heteroatom, whereas the other two sp2 orbitals of the carbonyl oxygen are occupied by the lone pairs. Further, the...
Ionic Crystal Structures
Most monatomic ions behave as charged spheres, and their attraction for ions of opposite charge is the same in every direction. Consequently, stable structures for ionic compounds result (1) when ions of one charge are surrounded by as many ions as possible of the opposite...
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 Carboxylic Acid Derivatives: Acid Halides, Esters, and Acid Anhydrides
The IUPAC and common names of acid halides are derived from the corresponding carboxylic acids, by changing “ic acid” to “yl halide.” For example, as shown below, the IUPAC name ethanoyl chloride is derived from ethanoic acid, and the common name, acetyl chloride, is obtained from acetic acid.
