Abstract:
In the title compound, C19H18FNO3S, the five-membered oxazolidine ring adopts an envelope conformation with the methine C atom of the fused bond as the flap. Its mean plane is oriented at a dihedral angle of 50.38 (1)° with respect to the fluoro-phenyl ring. The six-membered thio-pyran ring has a half-chair conformation and its mean plane is almost coplanar with the fused benzene ring, making a dihedral angle of 4.94 (10)°. The two aromatic rings are inclined to one another by 85.96 (11)°, and the mean planes of the oxazolidine and thio-pyran rings are inclined to one another by 57.64 (12)°. In the crystal, mol-ecules are linked by C-H⋯π inter-actions, forming a three-dimensional structure.

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...

Radicals: Electronic Structure and Geometry
Accordingly, the structure of a trivalent radical lies between the geometries of carbocations and carbanions. An sp2-hybridized carbocation is trigonal planar, while an sp3-hybridized carbanion is trigonal pyramidal. Here, the difference in geometry is...

Crystal Field Theory - Tetrahedral and Square Planar Complexes
Crystal field theory (CFT) is applicable to molecules in geometries other than octahedral. In octahedral complexes, the lobes of the dx2−y2 and dz2 orbitals point directly at the ligands. For tetrahedral complexes, the d orbitals remain in place, but with only four ligands located between the axes. None of the orbitals points directly at the tetrahedral ligands. However, the dx2−y2 and dz2 orbitals (along the Cartesian axes) overlap with the ligands less than the dxy,...
