Title: Crystal Structure of 9-Aza-3,6,12,15-tetrathiaheptadecane Hydrochloride
Abstract: The crystal structure of the title compound, 9-aza-3,6,12,15-tetrathiaheptadecane hydrochloride (N-H-ATH·HCl), was determined by X-ray crystallography. The crystal structure revealed that the substitution from an S atom in a polythioether to an NH group to form a monoazapolythioether does not have any influence on the structural features of acyclic polythioethers. The compound crystallized in an orthorhombic system, and was characterized as: P212121, a = 4.84742(17), b = 10.3753(3), c = 36.4017(18)Å, Z = 4, V = 1830.77(12)Å3. The R1 and wR2 values were 0.0706 and 0.1959, respectively, for 2929 reflections.
