Abstract:
The title compound, C13H13N2O3, a hydantoin derivative, crystallized with two mol-ecules (A and B) in an asymmetric unit. In mol-ecule A, the imidazolidine ring is twisted about the C-N bond involving the spiro C atom, while in mol-ecule B this ring is flat (r.m.s. deviation = 0.010 Å). The pyran rings in both mol-ecules have distorted half-chair conformations. The mean plane of the imidazolidine ring is inclined to the aromatic ring of the chroman unit by 79.71 (11)° in mol-ecule A and 82.83 (12)° in mol-ecule B. In the crystal, pairs of N-H⋯O hydrogen bonds link the individual mol-ecules to form A-A and B-B inversion dimers. The dimers are linked via N-H⋯O and C-H⋯O hydrogen bonds, forming sheets lying parallel to the bc plane, viz. (011). Within the sheets, the A and B mol-ecules are linked by C-H⋯π inter-actions.

01:28Structures 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 unhybridized p...

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...

01:11Nomenclature 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.
