RESUMO
In the solid state, crystals of both 1-(7-chloro-1,4-dihydroquinolin-4-ylidene)thiosemicarbazide-methanol-water (2/1/1), 2C10H9ClN4S·CH3OH·H2O, (I), and its hydrochloride salt {systematic name: [(7-chloro-1,4-dihydroquinolin-4-ylidene)azaniumyl]thiourea chloride}, C10H10ClN4S(+)·Cl(-), (II), assume the imine tautomeric form, contrary to other 4-amino-7-chloroquinolines. Of particular interest are the N-C bond lengths, which have appreciable double-bond character, and the C-N-C aromatic ring bond angle. Both of these parameters have been studied extensively in 4-amino-substituted quinolines. The crystal structures of (I) and (II) in this study provide interesting examples of the amino-imino tautomerism which exists in this class of compound and is, to the best of our knowledge, hitherto unreported.
