Abstract
The NH~4~NCS complex of the macrotetrolide antibiotic nonactin crystallizes in the space group P1, a = 12.565, b = 13.115, c = 14.999 Γ , Ξ±= 91.22, Ξ²= 90.10, Ξ³= 104.97Β°. The Xβray crystal structure analysis shows that the NH ion is coordinated by hydrogen bonds to the four ether oxygen atoms (NH β¦ O, 2.86 Γ ). These four atoms and the four carbonyl oxygen atoms (N β¦ O, 3.08 Γ ) enclose the NH ion in a somewhat distorted cube.
