Description
Summary:The crystal structures of (3S,4aS,8aS)-2-[(2R,3S)-3-benzamido-2-benzoyloxy-4-phenylbutyl]-N-tert-butyldecahydroisoquinoline-3-carboxamide, C38H47N3O4, (I), and (3S,4aS,8aS)-2-[(2R,3S)-3-(2,5-dichlorobenzamido)-2-(2,5-dichlorobenzoyloxy)-4-phenylbutyl]-N-tert-butyldecahydroisoquinoline-3-carboxamide, C38H43Cl4N3O4, (II), are described. Despite their chemical similarity, they adopt different conformations in the solid state: (I) features a bifurcated intramolecular N—H...(N,O) hydrogen bond from the tert-butylamide NH group to the piperidine N atom and the benzoate O atom, whereas (II) has an intramolecular N—H...O link from the benzamide NH group to the tert-butylamide O atom. In the crystal of (I), molecules are linked by C(4) amide N—H...O hydrogen bonds into chains propagating in the [010] direction, with both donor and acceptor parts of the benzamide group. In the extended structure of (II), C(11) N—H...O chains propagating in the [010] direction arise, with the donor being the tert-butylamide NH group and the acceptor being the O atom of the benzamide group.
