Two chloro­benzene solvent mol­ecules are also present in the asymmetric unit. Due to the apical imidazole ligand, the Mn atom is displaced out of the 24-atom porphyrin mean plane by 0.66 Å. The average Mn—Np (p = porphyrin) bond length is 2.143 (8) Å, and the axial Mn—NIm (Im = 2,5-di­methyl­imidazole) bond length is 2.171 (8) Å.

The reaction of nickel(II) chloride with 3-meth­oxy­aniline yielded di­chlorido­tetra­kis­(3-meth­oxy­aniline)nickel(II), [NiCl2(C7H9NO)4], as yellow crystals. The NiII ion is pseudo-octa­hedral with the chloride ions trans to each other. The four 3-meth­oxy­aniline ligands differ primarily due to different conformations about the Ni—N bond, which also affect the hydrogen bonding. Inter­molecular N—H⋯ Cl hydrogen bonds and short Cl⋯Cl contacts between mol­ecules link them into chains parallel to the b axis.

The title compound, C10H8BrN3OS2, a brominated di­thio­carbazate imine deriv­ative, was obtained from the condensation reaction of S-methyl­dithio­carbazate (SMDTC) and 5-bromo­isatin. The essentially planar mol­ecule exhibits a Z configuration, with the di­thio­carbazate and 5-bromo­isatin fragments located on the same sides of the C=N azomethine bond, which allows for the formation of an intra­molecular N—H⋯Ob (b = bromo­isatin) hydrogen bond generating an S(6) ring motif. In the crystal, adjacent mol­ecules are linked by pairs of N—H⋯O hydrogen bonds, forming dimers characterized by an R22(8) loop motif.

The title structure, {[Cu(C4H11NO)3][Cu4(CN)6]·[Cu(C4H10NO)2(H2O)]·H2O}n, is made up of diperiodic honeycomb CuICN networks built from [Cu4(CN)6]2− units, together with two independent CuII complexes: six-coord­inate [Cu(CH3CH2CH(NH2)CH2OH)3]2+ cations, and five-coordinate [Cu(CH3CH2CH(NH2)CH2O)2·H2O] neutral species. The two CuII complexes are not covalently bonded to the CuICN networks. Strong O—H⋯O hydrogen bonds link the CuII complexes into pairs and the pairs are hydrogen bonded into chains along the crystallographic b axis via the hydrate water mol­ecule.

The octa­hedral coordination of the bidentate ligands leads to a propeller-like shape, which induces metal-centered chirality onto the complex, with a right-handed (Δ) absolute configuration [the Flack parameter value is −0.003 (14)]. Both the complex cation and the disordered PF6− counter-anion are located on twofold rotation axes. Apart from Coulombic forces, the crystal cohesion is ensured by non-classical C—H⋯O and C—H⋯F inter­actions.

There are two independent ion pairs in the asymmetric unit and one di­chloro­methane solvent mol­ecule per two ion pairs. The cationic complex exhibits a distorted square-planar conformation around the IrI atom, formed by a bidentate cyclo­octa-1,5,diene (COD) ligand, a tri­phenyl­phosphane ligand, and an N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC). There are several close non-standard H⋯F hydrogen-bonding inter­actions that orient the tetra­fluorido­borate anions with respect to the IrI complex mol­ecules.

The thio­nocarbonate of trans-cyclo­octenediol, C9H12O2S, crystallizes with a 9/1 disorder in the position of the R,R and S,S-enanti­omers. As a result of trans-annulation, both rings adopt a twist conformation.

The crystal structure of a glycosyl­ated porphyrin (P_Gal2) system, C70H70N4O12, where two iso­propyl­idene protected galactose moieties are attached to the meso position of a substituted tetra­aryl porphyrin is reported. This structure reveals that the parent porphyrin is planar, with the galactose moieties positioned above and below the porphyrin macrocycle. This orientation likely prevents porphyrin–porphyrin H-type aggregation, potentially enhancing its efficiency as a photosensitizer in photodynamic therapy. Notable non-bonding C—H⋯O and C—H⋯π inter­actions among adjacent P_Gal2 systems are observed in this crystal network. Additionally, the tolyl groups of each porphyrin can engage in π–π inter­actions with the delocalized π-systems of neighboring porphyrins.

The 2-thio­phene ring of one of the two mol­ecules in the asymmetric unit was found to be disordered over two positions, with the major component having a site occupancy factor of 0.837 (2). The 2-thio­phene ring is nearly orthogonal to the fused 4H-pyran ring, with dihedral angles between the two sets of planes being 89.5 (5) and 89.63 (8)°. Inter­molecular hydrogen bonding, involving N—H⋯N and N—H⋯O inter­actions, creates two distinct motifs leading to the formation of a two-dimensional supra­molecular network along the crystallographic ac plane.

The title compound, C18H12Cl3O4P, is the symmetric phosphate derived from para-chloro­phenol and phospho­ric acid. Two of the three aromatic moieties adopt syn-orientation towards the P=O bond while the last chloro­phenol ring is pointing away from this bond. In the extended structure, C—H⋯O bonds connect the individual mol­ecules into sheets lying perpendicular to the crystallographic b axis.

The crystal structure of 1,4-bis­(neopent­yloxy)pillar[5]arene, C95H140N2O10 (TbuP), featuring two encapsulated pyridine mol­ecules, reveals significant host–guest inter­actions. Inter­estingly, the pyridine guests are positioned near the neopent­yloxy substituents instead of the electron-rich aromatic core of the pillar[5]arene. This spatial arrangement suggests a preference for the pyridine mol­ecules to engage with the aliphatic regions of the host. Detailed analysis of the structural characteristics of this host–guest system (TbuP·2Py), as well as its packing pattern within the crystal network, is presented and discussed.

α-d-2'-De­oxy­ribonucleosides are products of the γ-irradiation of DNA under oxygen-free conditions and are constituents of anomeric DNA. They are not found as natural building blocks of canonical DNA. Reports on their conformational properties are limited. Herein, the single-crystal X-ray structure of α-d-2'-de­oxy­adenosine (α-dA), C10H13N5O3, and its conformational parameters were determined. In the crystalline state, α-dA forms two conformers in the asymmetric unit which are connected by hydro­gen bonds. The sugar moiety of each conformer is arranged in a `clamp'-like fashion with respect to the other conformer, forming hydro­gen bonds to its nucleobase and sugar residue. For both conformers, a syn conformation of the nucleobase with respect to the sugar moiety was found. This is contrary to the anti conformation usually preferred by α-nucleosides. The sugar conformation of both conformers is C2'-endo, and the 5'-hydroxyl groups are in a +sc orientation, probably due to the hydro­gen bonds formed by the conformers. The formation of the supra­molecular assembly of α-dA is controlled by hydro­gen bonding and stacking inter­actions, which was verified by a Hirshfeld and curvedness surface analysis. Chains of hydro­gen-bonded nucleobases extend parallel to the b direction and are linked to equivalent chains by hydro­gen bonds involving the sugar moieties to form a sheet. A com­parison of the solid-state structures of the anomeric 2'-de­oxy­adenosines revealed significant differences of their conformational parameters.
