Molecular and supramolecular structures of benzil dihydrazone, an organic helical molecule. Comparison with diacetyl dihydrazone
Abstract
The synthesis and X-ray crystal structure of C–C
N torsion angle of ∼70°. The H-bonding pattern in the crystal gives rise to columnar single helical supramolecular structure. In contrast, diacetyl dihydrazone, a planar molecule, has a H-bonded 3-D network with pores in the solid state.
