Crystal structure of 2,3,9,10-tetramethoxy-5,6-dihydroisoquinolino[2,1-b]isoquinolin-7-ium 5-hydroxy-3-(4-hydroxyphenyl)-4-oxo-4H-chromen-7-olate methanol solvate, C 37 The asymmetric unit of the title crystal structure is shown in the figure. Tables 1 and 2 contain details on crystal structure and measurement conditions and a list of the atoms including atomic coordinates and displacement parameters.
Source of materialPalmatine chloride (systematic name: 2,3,9,10-tetramethoxy-5,6-dihydroisoquinolino[2,1-b]isoquinolin-7-ium chloride; 387 mg, 1 mmol) was dissolved in absolute methanol (30 mL) and NaOH (40 mg, 1 mmol) was added under stirring conditions. Genistein (systematic name: 5,7-dihydroxy-3-(4-hydroxyphenyl)-4H-chromen-4-one; 270 mg, 1 mmol) was then added. The mixture was stirred for 8 h and then filtered. The yellow powder was further recrystallized in absolute methanol and yellow block crystals were obtained after several days.
Experimental detailsThe structure was solved by direct methods and refined on F 2 by full-matrix least-squares methods using the SHELXTL program package [1]. Hydrogen atoms bound to carbon atoms were located geometrically with U iso (H) = 1.2 Ueq(C) or 1.5 Ueq(C). Hydrogen atoms bonded to oxygen were located by difference maps and the displacement factors were freely refined.
