Crystal Structure of 2-Thiohydantoin-L-Isoleucine Synthesized under Solvent-Free Conditions

Abstract

The title compound with systematic name: (S)-5-secbutyl-2-thiohydantoin, is synthesized through a solvent-free reaction, crystallizes in the non-centrosymmetric space group P2₁2₁2₁. In the crystal structure, the molecules are joined by N‒H···O and N‒H···S hydrogen bonds, forming chains C²₂(10) and macrocycles R⁵₆(26) in an infinite bi-dimensional network.
