Abstract:
The crystal structure of the title compound, C25H24N2O2, at 173 K has monoclinic (C2/c) symmetry. The mol-ecule is located on a crystallographic twofold rotation axis with only half a mol-ecule in the asymmetric unit. The imidazolidine ring adopts a twist conformation, with a twist about the ring C-C bond. The crystal structure shows the anti-clinal disposition of the two (2-hy-droxy-naphthalen-1-yl)methyl substituents of the imidazolidine ring. The structure displays two intra-molecular O-H⋯N hydrogen bonds, each forming an S(6) ring motif.

02:42Ionic 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...
01:16Structure of Conjugated Dienes
Conjugated dienes are compounds characterized by the presence of alternating double and single bonds. In a conjugated system like 1,3-butadiene, the unhybridized 2p orbital on each carbon overlaps continuously, allowing the π electrons to be delocalized across the entire molecule. In contrast, this type of overlap does not occur in cumulated and isolated dienes, such as 2,3-pentadiene and 1,4-pentadiene, respectively. Instead, the π electrons remain localized between the...
01:11Nomenclature 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.
