RESUMO
For the structure of fluconazole [systematic name: 2-(2,4-difluorophenyl)-1,3-bis(1H-1,2,4-triazol-1-yl)propan-2-ol] monohydrate, C13H12F2N6O·H2O, a case study on different model refinements is reported, based on single-crystal X-ray diffraction data measured at 100â K with Cu Kα radiation to a resolution of sinâ θ/λ of 0.6â Å(-1). The structure, anisotropic displacement parameters (ADPs) and figures of merit from the independent atom model are compared to `invariom' and `Hirshfeld atom' refinements. Changing from a spherical to an aspherical atom model lowers the figures of merit and improves both the accuracy and the precision of the geometrical parameters. Differences between results from the two aspherical-atom refinements are small. However, a refinement of ADPs for H atoms is only possible with the Hirshfeld atom density model. It gives meaningful results even at a resolution of 0.6â Å(-1), but requires good low-order data.

A neutral C4 cumulene 1 that includes a cyclic alkyl(amino) carbene (cAAC), its air-stable radical cation 1(·+) , and dication 1(2+) have been synthesized. The redox property of 1(·+) was studied by cyclic voltammetry. EPR and theoretical calculations show that the unpaired electron in 1(·+) is mainly delocalized over the central C4 backbone. The commercially available CBr4 is utilized as a source of dicarbon in the cumulene synthesis.
RESUMO
The controversy over the absolute configuration of (+)-erythro-mefloquine, the less psychosis-causing enantiomer of the anti-malarial drug Lariam, has been resolved by Mosher ester crystallization. The configuration determined previously by physical methods is correct, whereas the configuration determined by three enantioselective syntheses is wrong.
