Crystal structure of trans-N,N'-bis-(3,5-di-tert-butyl-2-hy-droxy-phen-yl)oxamide methanol monosolvate.

ABSTRACT: The here crystallized oxamide was previously characterized as an unsolvated species [Jímenez-Pérez et al. (2000 ▸). J. Organomet. Chem. 614-615, 283-293], and is now reported with methanol as a solvent of crystallization, C30H44N2O4·CH3OH, in a different space group. The introduction of the solvent influences neither the mol-ecular symmetry of the oxamide, which remains centrosymmetric, nor the mol-ecular conformation. However, the unsolvated mol-ecule crystallized as an ordered system, while many parts of the solvated crystal are disordered. The hy-droxy group in the oxamide is disordered over two chemically equivalent positions, with occupancies 0.696 (4):0.304 (4); one tert-butyl group is disordered by rotation about the C-C bond, and was modelled with three sites for each methyl group,
