    Abstract:
    Considering that Cu(tda) chelate (tda: dithioacetate) is a receptor for adenine and related 6-aminopurines, this study reports on the synthesis, molecular and crystal structures, thermal stability, spectral properties and DFT calculations related to [Cu(tda)(9heade)(H2O)]·2H2O (1) [9heade: N9-(2-hydroxyethyl)adenine]. Concerning the molecular recognition of (metal chelate)-(adenine synthetic nucleoside), 1 represents an unprecedented metal binding pattern (MBP) for 9heade. However, unprecedentedly, the Cu(tda)-9heade molecular recognition in 1 is essentially featured in the Cu-N1(9heade) bond, without any N6-H⋯O(carboxyl tda) interligand interaction. Nevertheless, N1 being the most basic donor for N9-substituted adenines, this Cu-N1 bond is now assisted by an O2-water-mediated interaction (N6-H⋯O2 and O2⋯Cu weak contact). Also, in the crystal packing, the O-H(ol) of 9heade interacts with its own adenine moiety as a result of an O3-water-mediated interaction (O(ol)-H⋯O3 plus O3-H36⋯π(adenine moiety)). Both water-mediated interactions seem to be responsible for serious alterations in the physical properties of crystalline or grounded samples. Density functional theory calculations were used to evaluate the interactions energetically. Moreover, the quantum theory of atoms-in-molecules (QTAIM), in combination with the noncovalent interaction plot (NCIPlot), was used to analyze the interactions and rationalize the existence and relative importance of hydrogen bonding, chalcogen bonding and π-stacking interactions. The novelty of this work resides in the discovery of a novel binding mode for N9-(2-hydroxyethyl)adenine. Moreover, the investigation of the important role of water in the solid state of 1 is also relevant, along with the chalcogen bonding interactions demonstrated by the density functional theory (DFT) study.
