Abstract

Crystal structures of three isomeric styryldiazine derivatives (E)-2-(3,4-dimetoxystryl)pyrazine, (E)-2-(3,4-dimetoxystryl)pyrimidine, and (E)-4-(3,4-dimetoxystryl)pyrimidine with different positions of nitrogen atoms are studied. These compounds can be used as potential initial compounds for biologically active (antibacterial or antitumor) agents, pesticides, fungicides, dyes, analytical reagents. Even though these molecules have similar chemical structures and geometric parameters in the crystal, the crystal packing motifs of these three compounds differ significantly. The conducted PBE0/6-31G(d,p) quantum chemical calculations show that these molecules may have several conformers with close energies, including those observed in the crystal, and that these forms may transform into each other through barriers not exceeding 43.5 kJ/mol. The highest density at 120 K and the highest energy of crystal lattice calculated by the UNI force field are observed for the pyrimidine derivative (E)-2-(3,4-dimetoxystryl)pyrimidine (6). This is the only structure that exhibits photocyclization in solid state due to the fact that its crystal contains centrosymmetric dimers with a distance between the atoms of olefin fragments equal to ≈ 3.9 Å.
