The Diels–Alder reaction was performed using a mixture of cis-3,5-cyclohexadiene-1,2-diole (30 cm3, 20% solution in ethyl acetate, 0.035 mol) and maleimide (5.14 g, 0.035 mol). After being refluxed for 2 h, the reaction mixture was cooled, the product was filtered off and recrystallized from ethyl acetate (m.p. 208–209°C).
The hydroxyl and imide H atoms were found from ΔF map, and next they were fixed at the O—H and N—H distances of 0.82 and 0.88 Å, respectively. Carbon-bonded H atoms were positioned geometrically and fixed with alkene and methine C—H distances of 0.93 and 0.98 Å, respectively. The displacement parameters of the H atoms were Uiso(H) = 1.2 Ueq(C/O/N).
A search for known structures of simple succinimide derivatives with mono- or bicyclic hydrocarbon moieties revealed several molecules having hydrophobic substituents (refcodes: IHEPUG, PHYPHM, ODEMAL, YITBUY, QICWOO, PEMWOU, PEMWUA, PESVOZ) as well as sulfinyl (WEWCAC) and sulfonylamino (YEXTUQ) fragments (The Cambridge Structural Database, Ver. 5.28 and upgrades; Allen, 2002). Their preferred molecular association is a chain formed between imide groups through N—H···O═C hydrogen bonds.
Continuing our studies (Kossakowski & Krawiecka, 2000) we designed a synthesis for several new derivatives containing the title compound (I). Molecule (I) has a bicyclooctene nucleus. One of its rings shares two C atoms with the cis bonded succinimide moiety, while the second ring has two hydroxyl substituents (Fig. 1). In the bicyclic hydrocarbon fragment, the six-membered rings adopt a distorted boat conformation. The hydroxyl groups are cis oriented to each other and linked by the weak intra-molecular O11—H···O10 hydrogen bond (Table 1). The motif of this intra-molecular hydrogen bond is S(5) (Bernstein et al., 1995) with the H···O distance of 2.34 Å and the O—H···O angle of 99°. The chemically equivalent C═O and C—N bonds of the succinimide system are not equal: C3═O3 1.219 (2) versus C5═O5 1.202 (2) Å and C3—N4 1.367 (2) versus C5—N4 1.384 (2) Å. Moreover, the five-membered succinimide ring is slightly puckered (torsion angles range from 1.0 (2)–8.4 (2)°).
Deviations from the expected bond lengths and the distorted conformation of rings are caused by the presence of different hydrogen bond patterns involving each of the carbonyl and hydroxyl groups (Table 1 and Fig. 2); for example: carbonyl O5 is involved in the C—H···O contacts only, while the C···O distances of the second carbonyl (i.e. O3) are longer than 3.35 Å. Strong inter-molecular O—H···O and N—H···O hydrogen bonds link hydroxyl, carbonyl and imide groups (Table 1), without typical imide···imide interactions. The hydroxyl O11 is involved in both intra- and inter-molecular hydrogen-bonding to O10 of the second hydroxyl group. A cyclic dimer is formed as a result of the inter-molecular hydroxyl···hydroxyl interaction around a center of symmetry (Fig. 2). The imide···hydroxyl N4—H···O11 hydrogen bond stabilizes the molecular tape running along the b axis (Fig. 3), while the hydroxyl···carbonyl O10—H···O3 bond links molecules lying in the neighbouring planes perpendicular to the c axis (Fig. 4). Numerous C—H···O contacts are also observed.

A search for known structures of simple succinimide derivatives with mono- or bicyclic hydrocarbon moieties revealed several molecules having hydrophobic substituents (refcodes: IHEPUG, PHYPHM, ODEMAL, YITBUY, QICWOO, PEMWOU, PEMWUA, PESVOZ) as well as sulfinyl (WEWCAC) and sulfonylamino (YEXTUQ) fragments (The Cambridge Structural Database, Ver. 5.28 and upgrades; Allen, 2002). Their preferred molecular association is a chain formed between imide groups through N—H···O═C hydrogen bonds.
Continuing our studies (Kossakowski & Krawiecka, 2000) we designed a synthesis for several new derivatives containing the title compound (I). Molecule (I) has a bicyclooctene nucleus. One of its rings shares two C atoms with the cis bonded succinimide moiety, while the second ring has two hydroxyl substituents (Fig. 1). In the bicyclic hydrocarbon fragment, the six-membered rings adopt a distorted boat conformation. The hydroxyl groups are cis oriented to each other and linked by the weak intra-molecular O11—H···O10 hydrogen bond (Table 1). The motif of this intra-molecular hydrogen bond is S(5) (Bernstein et al., 1995) with the H···O distance of 2.34 Å and the O—H···O angle of 99°. The chemically equivalent C═O and C—N bonds of the succinimide system are not equal: C3═O3 1.219 (2) versus C5═O5 1.202 (2) Å and C3—N4 1.367 (2) versus C5—N4 1.384 (2) Å. Moreover, the five-membered succinimide ring is slightly puckered (torsion angles range from 1.0 (2)–8.4 (2)°).
Deviations from the expected bond lengths and the distorted conformation of rings are caused by the presence of different hydrogen bond patterns involving each of the carbonyl and hydroxyl groups (Table 1 and Fig. 2); for example: carbonyl O5 is involved in the C—H···O contacts only, while the C···O distances of the second carbonyl (i.e. O3) are longer than 3.35 Å. Strong inter-molecular O—H···O and N—H···O hydrogen bonds link hydroxyl, carbonyl and imide groups (Table 1), without typical imide···imide interactions. The hydroxyl O11 is involved in both intra- and inter-molecular hydrogen-bonding to O10 of the second hydroxyl group. A cyclic dimer is formed as a result of the inter-molecular hydroxyl···hydroxyl interaction around a center of symmetry (Fig. 2). The imide···hydroxyl N4—H···O11 hydrogen bond stabilizes the molecular tape running along the b axis (Fig. 3), while the hydroxyl···carbonyl O10—H···O3 bond links molecules lying in the neighbouring planes perpendicular to the c axis (Fig. 4). Numerous C—H···O contacts are also observed.
