ABSTRACT
The title compound, 3-[(benzo-1,3-dioxol-5-yl)amino]-4-methoxycyclobut-3-ene-1,2-dione, C12H9NO5 (3), is a precursor to an antimycobacterial squaramide. Block-shaped crystals of a monoclinic form (3-I, space group P21/c, Z = 8, Z' = 2) and needle-shaped crystals of a triclinic form (3-II, space group P-1, Z = 4, Z' = 2) were found to crystallize concomitantly. In both crystal forms, R22(10) dimers assemble through N-H...O=C hydrogen bonds. These dimers are formed from crystallographically unique molecules in 3-I, but exhibit crystallographic Ci symmetry in 3-II. Twinning by pseudomerohedry was encountered in the crystals of 3-II. The conformations of 3 in the solid forms 3-I and 3-II are different from one another but are similar for the unique molecules in each polymorph. Density functional theory (DFT) calculations on the free molecule of 3 indicate that a nearly planar conformation is preferred.
