In such a way and in continuation of our previous report [20] we studied single-crystal X-ray and the theoretical conformational analysis of (4R)-(-)-1-(2,4,6-trimethylbenzenesulfonyl)-3-butyryl-4-tert-butyl-2-imidazolidinone (3), as a cyclic arylsulfonylurea, focusing on the configuration of substituents around the 2-imidazolidinone core and to establish the factors that influence this configuration and if this configuration can be predicted for new substituted 2-imidazolidinone.
Three-dimensional conformational analysis using the PubChem Database (http://pubchem.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov) showed that the cytotoxic potency of the C-18 fatty acids was related to their degree of conformational similarity to our cytotoxic reference compound.
