The structure of 2-(((6-methoxypyridin-3-yl)imino)methyl)phenol (MPIMP) (C13H12N2O2) has been determined by X-ray diffraction methods. It crystallizes in the tetragonal crystal system with space group P42/n and unit cell dimensions a = 14.2958(3) Å, b = 14.2958(3) Å, c = 11.0179(3) Å, V = 2251.73(12) Å3, Z = 8. The structure has been refined by full-matrix least square procedure to a final R-value of 0.0518(wR2= 0.1312) for 1709 observed reflections. The molecules linked via two intermolecular (C-H...N and C-H...O) hydrogen bonds. The crystal structure was further stabilized by a strong intramolecular N-H...O hydrogen bond. The Hirshfeld surface analysis reveals the interaction contacts of the molecule and the strength of molecular packing in the crystal. The energy framework has been performed through different intermolecular interaction energies for structural stability. The molecular docking of MPIMP was performed against tuberculosis enzyme Decaprenyl-phosphoryl-b-Dribose 20-epimerase (DprE1, PDB code: 4KW5) to reconnoiter the binding interactions at the active sites.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
