The title ketocarboxylic acid, synthesized from the anti-inflammatory clocortolone pivalate, crystallizes as C21H23ClO4·C6H12O, with one mol­ecule of steroid and one of 3,3-dimethyl­butanone per asymmetric unit. The carboxyl group is highly ordered and the steroid molecules form translational carboxyl-to-ketone hydrogen-bonding catemers [O...O = 2.682 (3) Å and O—H...O = 158°] that utilize the 3-ketone group, with one chain proceeding in the [110] direction and the other in the [\overline{1}10] direction. One close inter­molecular C—H...O=C contact is present, which involves the solvent O atom, but neither it nor the Cl atom nor the 11-ketone group play any role in the classical hydrogen bonding.

Comment top

Our study of hydrogen-bonding modes in ketocarboxylic acids often employs terpenoids as subjects, and we now report the structure and aggregation mode of the title steroid, (I), derived from a commercial topical anti-inflammatory glucocorticoid.

Fig. 1 shows the asymmetric unit. The only significant conformational option involves the carboxyl, whose plane lies near the C16—C17 bond, with the C=O bond turned toward C16; the C16—C17—C20—O3 torsion angle = 2.55 (4)°. The A-ring is highly planar (Thompson et al., 1999), with C10 only 0.095 (2) Å out of the average plane for all six ring atoms. The C6—C7 double bond plane (C5—C6—C7—C8) lies at a 13.27 (2)° dihedral angle to this average A-ring plane.

Complete or partial averaging of C—O bond lengths and C—C—O angles, frequent in carboxyl dimers, cannot occur in acid-to-ketone catemers, whose geometry precludes the disordering processes required. In (I), which is catemeric, these values are ones typical of highly ordered dimeric carboxyls.

Fig. 2 illustrates the chains created by the acid-to-ketone H bonding among translationally related steroid molecules (Table 2). This arrangement closely resembles those found in other steroid keto acids that share important structural features with (I). We have now examined a half-dozen 3-ketosteroids with additional ketones in various positions but have yet to observe any involvement of those additional functions in the H-bonding schemes.

Neither the solvate nor the Cl atom nor the C11 ketone plays any direct role in the H bonding. However, in the stacking of adjacent steroid molecules there is an intermolecular contact of 3.044 Å between the Cl and O2 atoms, and within the 2.6 Å range surveyed for non-bonded intermolecular C—H···O packing interactions, one close contact was found involving the solvent oxygen; the solvent occupancy is 100%.

Three-dimensionally, strings of screw-related solvate molecules, associating with each other only via van der Waals' contacts, extend along the b axis, forming sheets in the ab plane. Each solvate sheet is sandwiched between a sheet of [110] catemers and one of [-110] catemers, where it is stabilized by the close C—H···O=C steroid contacts.

We characterize the geometry of H bonding to carbonyls using a combination of H···O=C angle and H···O=C—C torsional angle. These describe the approach of the acid H atom to the O in terms of its deviation from, respectively, C=O axiality (ideal = 120°) and planarity with the carbonyl (ideal = 0°). In (I) the values for these two angles are 130 and -23°.

Experimental top

Compound (I), previously unreported, was synthesized from (+)-9α-chloro-6α-fluoro-11β,21-dihydroxy-16α-methylpregna- 1,4-diene-3,20-dione 21-pivalate (clocortolone pivalate), of known rotation and absolute stereochemistry, a synthetic topical anti-inflammatory glucocorticoid obtained from DFB Pharmaceuticals, Fort Worth, Texas, USA. Preparatory to C20—C21 bond cleavage, the ester function was removed reductively with diisobutylaluminum hydride; this was successful but failed to avoid dehydrofluorination. Following oxidation with pyridinium dichromate in CH2Cl2, NaIO4 cleavage provided a low yield of (I), which was crystallized from pinacolone, to give material of X-ray quality, mp ca 512 K. The 1H NMR spectrum showed five vinyl peaks (δ 5.8–7.8), confirming the loss of fluorine. The solid-state (KBr) IR spectrum of (I) displays C=O absorptions at 1716, 1654 and 1648 cm-1, with an alkene absorption at 1595 cm-1. In CDCl3 solution, where dimers predominate, these peaks appear at 1704, 1656 & 1607 cm-1.

Refinement top

All H atoms for (I) were found in electron density difference maps. The O—H was constrained to an idealized position with its distance fixed at 0.84 Å and Uiso(H) = 1.5Ueq(O). The methyl H atoms were put in ideally staggered positions with C—H distances of 0.98 Å and Uiso(H) = 1.5Ueq(C). The methylene and methine Hs were placed in geometrically idealized positions and constrained to ride on their parent C atoms with C—H distances of 0.99 and 1.00 Å, respectively, and Uiso(H) = 1.2Ueq(C).

Experimental. Crystal mounted on cryoloop using Paratone-N

Geometry. All e.s.d.'s (except the e.s.d. in the dihedral angle between two l.s. planes) are estimated using the full covariance matrix. The cell e.s.d.'s are taken into account individually in the estimation of e.s.d.'s in distances, angles and torsion angles; correlations between e.s.d.'s in cell parameters are only used when they are defined by crystal symmetry. An approximate (isotropic) treatment of cell e.s.d.'s is used for estimating e.s.d.'s involving l.s. planes.

Refinement. Refinement of F2 against ALL reflections. The weighted R-factor wR and goodness of fit S are based on F2, conventional R-factors R are based on F, with F set to zero for negative F2. The threshold expression of F2 > σ(F2) is used only for calculating R-factors(gt) etc. and is not relevant to the choice of reflections for refinement. R-factors based on F2 are statistically about twice as large as those based on F, and R- factors based on ALL data will be even larger.
