Belarus suddenly banned the sale of Russian-made tea. According to the Ministry of Health of Belarus, the reason for this decision was a violation of requirements for microbiological indicators of product safety. Sanitary services of Belarus found traces of fungus in several types of tea produced by Orimi LLC, a Russian legal entity. Belarus banned all brands of tea produced by this company, their import into Belarus was restricted as well. The list of prohibited products includes such tea brands as: Greenfield, TESS, Princess Nuri, Princess Java, as well as some types of Jardin and Jockey coffee. Orimi LLC is taking necessary measures to prove the stability of production processes and effectiveness of the safety control system, the Belarusian Ministry of Health added. Restrictions on the sale of products may be lifted as soon as the company meets all relevant requirements of the Health Ministry of Belarus.

Herein we report the crystal structures of two ben­zo­di­az­e­pines obtained by reacting N,N'-(4,5-di­amino-1,2-phenyl­ene)bis­(4-methyl­ben­zene­sul­fon­am­ide) (1) or 4,5-(4-methyl­ben­zene­sul­fon­am­ido)­ben­zene-1,2-diaminium dichloride (1·2HCl) with acetone, giving 2,2,4-trimethyl-8,9-bis­(4-methyl­ben­zene­sul­fon­am­ido)-2,3-di­hydro-5H-1,5-ben­zo­di­az­e­pine, C26H30N4O4S2 (2), and 2,2,4-tri­methyl-8,9-bis­(4-methyl­ben­zene­sul­fon­am­ido)-2,3-di­hydro-5H-1,5-ben­zo­di­az­e­pin-1-ium chloride 0.3-hydrate, C26H31N4O4S2+·Cl−·0.3H2O (3). Compounds 2 and 3 were first obtained in attempts to recrystallize 1 and 1·2HCl using acetone as solvent. This solvent reacted with the vicinal di­amines present in the mol­ecular structures, forming a 5H-1,5-ben­zo­di­az­e­pine ring. In the crystal structure of 2, the seven-membered ring of ben­zo­di­az­e­pine adopts a boat-like conformation, while upon protonation, observed in the crystal structure of 3, it adopts an envelope-like conformation. In both crystalline com­pounds, the tosyl­amide N atoms are not in resonance with the arene ring, mainly due to hy­dro­gen bonds and steric hindrance caused by the large vicinal groups in the aromatic ring. At a supra­molecular level, the crystal structure is maintained by a combination of hy­dro­gen bonds and hydro­phobic inter­actions. In 2, amine-to-tosyl N—H⋯O and amide-to-imine N—H⋯N hy­dro­gen bonds can be observed. In contrast, in 3, the chloride counter-ion and water mol­ecule result in most of the hy­dro­gen bonds being of the amide-to-chloride and ammonium-to-chloride N—H⋯Cl types, while the amine inter­acts with the tosyl group, as seen in 2. In conclusion, we report the synthesis of 1, 1·2HCl and 2, as well as their chemical characterization. For 2, two synthetic methods are described, i.e. solvent-mediated crystallization and synthesis via a more efficient and cleaner route as a polycrystalline material. Salt 3 was only obtained as presented, with only a few crystals being formed.

The X-ray crystal structure data of 12-α-fluoro-3β-hy­droxy­olean-28,13β-olide methanol hemisolvate, 2C30H47FO3·CH3OH, (1), and 12-α-fluoro-3β-hy­droxy­taraxer-28,14β-olide methanol hemisolvate, 2C30H47FO3·CH3OH, (2), are described. The fluoro­lactonization of oleanolic acid using SelectfluorTM yielded a mixture of the six-membered δ-lactone (1) and the unusual seven-membered γ-lactone (2) following a 1,2-shift of methyl C-27 from C-14 to C-13.
