Absolute configuration of (+)-(S)-2-(5-fluoro-2-methoxy-1,4-benzodioxan-2-yl)imidazolinium bromide
Abstract
The title compound, C12H14FN2O3+·Br−, crystallizes in the non-centrosymmetric P212121 space group. The absolute configuration of the pharmacologically active molecule could be resolved in the hydrobromide salt, the structure of which is reported. The molecule of the title compound has the S configuration. The molecular packing in the crystal is stabilized by weak N—H⃛Br [N⃛Br = 3.240 (4) and 3.302 (4) Å] hydrogen bonding.
