| pubmed-article:14748580 | pubmed:abstractText | [structure: see text] We have prepared 7,9-diazabicyclo[4.2.2]dec-3-ene-8,10-dione (3) and 7,9-diazabicyclo[4.2.2]decane-8,10-dione (4), which differ by virtue of the degree of unsaturation in the bridging carbacyclic tether on a 2,5-diketopiperazine. Remarkably different self-assembly patterns were observed in the solid state for the two compounds, attributed to subtle variations in the conformational constraints imposed by the tether. | lld:pubmed |
