I. INTRODUCTION
Apixaban (Eliquis®) is a novel oral pyrazole-based direct FXa inhibitor; this drug was developed by Bristol-Myers Squibb and Pfizer to treat and prevent thrombotic disorder (Watson et al., Reference Watson, Whiteside and Perry2011). Since May 2011, Apixaban has been approved for VTE prevention in adult elective hip or knee replacement patients in various countries, such as the USA, China, Brazil, Australia, New Zealand, and some European countries (Deeks, Reference Deeks2012). The title compound is an intermediate in the synthesis of the anticoagulant, Apixaban (Jiang and Ji, Reference Jiang and Ji2013). Presently, the crystal structure of the title compound has not been reported.
II. EXPERIMENTAL
A. Sample preparation
The sample (Figure 1) was prepared using 5-chloro-N-[4-(5,6-dihydro-3-(4-morpholinyl)-2-oxo-1(2H)-pyridinyl)phenyl]-pentanamide (CAS: 1643330-62-4) (Wang et al., Reference Wang, Xiang, Cen, Zhang, Huang, Zhou, Liu and Qiao2015). The melting point and measured density of the title compound are 203–205 °C and 1.274 g cm−3, respectively. Crystallization of the title compound at room temperature was successful using methanol as solvent. Then, parts of crystals were dried and ground into powder and mounted on a flat zero background plate.
B. Diffraction data collection and reduction
X-ray powder diffraction measurement was performed at room temperature using an X'Pert PRO diffractometer (PANalytical Co., Ltd., Netherlands) with a PIXcel one-dimensional (1D) detector and CuKα radiation (generator setting: 40 kV and 40 mA). The sample was mounted on a flat zero background plate. The diffraction data were collected over the angular range from 4 to 50°2θ with a step size of 0.013 13°2θ and a counting time of 30 ms step−1.
The software package Material Studio 8.0 (Accelrys Co., Ltd., CA) was used to process the data in the Analytical & Testing Center (Sichuan University, Chengdu, China). The X-ray powder diffraction pattern (Figure 2) was pre-treated by subtracting the background, smoothing, and stripping off the Kα 2 component. Automatic indexing results were obtained by the X-cell method (Neumann, Reference Neumann2003). The preliminary cell from indexing was refined using the Pawley method (Pawley, Reference Pawley1981).
C. Single-crystal X-ray diffraction
X-ray diffraction data for the title compound were collected on an Xcalibur, Eos diffractometer. The crystal was kept at 293.15 K during data collection. The structure was solved with olex2 (Dolomanov et al., Reference Dolomanov, Bourhis, Gildea, Howard and Puschmann2009), a structure solution program using charge flipping and refined with ShelXL (Sheldrick, Reference Sheldrick2008) refinement package using least-squares minimization.
III. RESULTS
Pawley refinement results confirmed that the title compound is triclinic with space group P−1 and unit-cell parameters: a = 5.989(2), b = 6.669(3), c = 24.605(5) Å, α = 84.466(7)°, β = 89.859(6)°, γ = 69.074(4)°, unit-cell volume V = 913.11 Å3, Z = 2, and ρ cal = 1.289 g cm−3 (Table I). The results are in good agreement with the single crystallographic data [a = 6.0164(5), b = 6.6483(8), c = 24.700(3) Å, α = 83.957(10)°, β = 89.451(9)°, γ = 69.222(10)°, unit-cell volume V = 918.17(18) Å3, Z = 2, and ρ cal = 1.286 g cm−3]. The detail single crystallographic data of title compound and the experimental data were listed in Table II and the fractional atomic coordinates were listed in Table III. The title compound is composed of four rings. Two 2-piperidone rings with sofa-half-chair-conformations are connected by phenyl ring, which are respectively twisted by 47.3(5)° (C5–N1–C6–C11) and 136.6(4)° (C12–N2–C9–C10). The morpholine ring with sofa-half-chair-conformation is attached to the piperidone ring twisted by −5.8(6)° (C17–N3–C15–C14). It is arranged without intramolecular and intermolecular H bonding (Figure 3).
