Abstract :
The chiral title compound, C16H20N2O2, which can be used for producing active pharmaceutical ingredients for treatment of type 2 pancreatic diabetes and other pathologies dependent on insulin resistance, was prepared from (1R,3S)-camphoric acid and o-phenylenediamine. It crystallized from an ethanol solution in the chiral monoclinic P21 space group. The five-membered ring adopts a twisted conformation with the methyl-substituted C atoms displaced by −0.273 (5) and 0.407 (5) Å from the mean plane through the other three atoms. In the crystal, molecules are linked by O—H⋯N hydrogen bonds, forming chains along the a-axis direction. Hirshfeld surface analysis and two-dimensional fingerprint plots were used to analyze the intermolecular contacts present in the crystal.
