Abstract

The crystal structure of 1, 2-dibenzoyl-1-tert-butylhydrazine (1), a nonsteroidal ecdysone agonist, has been established by direct methods and refined to a final R value of 0.038 for 2502 observed reflections. The crystals belong to the monoclinic system, a= 10.5114 (7), b= 31.557 (3), c= 11.1578 (8) Å, β= 113.210 (6)°, and the space group is P 21/n. The NN bond in 1 was found to adopt a gauche conformation with a dihedral angle of-71.8° or-58.1°. ...
