In the ten-membered 1,3,4,6-tetra­hydro-2H-pyrido[1,2-a]pyrimidine ring system of the title compound, C17H15N5, the 1,2-di­hydro­pyridine ring is essentially planar (r.m.s. deviation = 0.001 Å), while the 1,3-diazinane ring has a distorted twist-boat conformation. In the crystal, mol­ecules are linked by N—H⋯N and C—H⋯N hydrogen bonds, forming a three-dimensional network. In addition, C—H⋯π inter­actions form layers parallel to the (100) plane. Thus, crystal-structure cohesion is ensured. According to a Hirshfeld surface study, H⋯H (40.4%), N⋯H/H⋯N (28.6%) and C⋯H/H⋯C (24.1%) inter­actions are the most important contributors to the crystal packing.

In the structure of the title compound, C22H22N4O4·C3H7NO·H2O, the entire tricyclic system is approximately planar except for the carbon atom bearing the two methyl groups; the meth­oxy­phenyl ring is approximately perpendicular to the tricycle. All seven potential hydrogen-bond donors take part in classical hydrogen bonds. The main mol­ecule and the DMF combine to form broad ribbons parallel to the a axis and roughly parallel to the ab plane; the water mol­ecules connect the residues in the third dimension.

The title compound, C22H18N2O12, was obtained as a by-product during the planned synthesis of 1,2-bis­(2-nitro-4,5-dimethyl phthalate)ethane by oxidative dimerization starting from dimethyl-4-methyl-5-nitro phthalate. To identify this compound unambiguously, a single-crystal structure analysis was performed. The asymmetric unit consists of half a mol­ecule that is located at a centre of inversion. As a result of symmetry restrictions, the mol­ecule shows an E configuration around the double bond. Both phenyl rings are coplanar, whereas the nitro and the two methyl ester groups are rotated out of the ring plane by 32.6 (1), 56.5 (2) and 49.5 (2)°, respectively. In the crystal, mol­ecules are connected into chains extending parallel to the a axis by pairs of C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds that are connected into a tri-periodic network by additional C—H⋯O hydrogen-bonding inter­actions.

The structures of fourteen halochalcogenyl­phospho­nium tetra­halogen­ido­aurates(III), phosphane chalcogenide derivatives with general formula [R13–nR2nPEX][AuX4] (R1 = t-butyl; R2 = isopropyl; n = 0 to 3; E = S or Se; X = Cl or Br) are presented. The eight possible chlorido derivatives are: 17a, n = 3, E = S; 18a, n = 2, E = S; 19a, n = 1, E = S; 20a, n = 0, E = S; 21a, n = 3, E = Se; 22a, n = 2, E = Se; 23a, n = 1, E = Se; and 24a, n = 0, E = Se, and the corresponding bromido derivatives are 17b–24b in the same order. Structures were obtained for all compounds except for the tri-t-butyl derivatives 24a and 24b. Isotypy is observed for 18a/18b/22a/22b, 19a/23a, 17b/21b and 19b/23b. In eleven of the compounds, X⋯X contacts (mostly very short) are observed between the cation and anion, whereby the E—X⋯X groups are approximately linear and the X⋯X—Au angles approximately 90°. The exceptions are 17a, 19a and 23a, which instead display short E⋯X contacts. Bond lengths in the cations correspond to single bonds P—E and E—X. For each group with constant E and X, the P—E—X bond-angle values increase monotonically with the steric bulk of the alkyl groups. The packing is analysed in terms of E⋯X, X⋯X (some between anions alone), H⋯X and H⋯Au contacts. Even for isotypic compounds, some significant differences can be discerned.

In the structure of the title co-crystal, C3H3N3O2·C5H8N2, the components are linked by a set of directional O—H⋯N, N—H⋯O, N—H⋯N and C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds to yield a two-dimensional mono-periodic arrangement. The structure propagates in the third dimension by extensive π–π stacking inter­actions of nearly parallel mol­ecules of the two components, following an alternating sequence. The primary structure-defining inter­action is very strong oxime-OH donor to pyrazole-N acceptor hydrogen bond [O⋯N = 2.587 (2) Å], while the significance of weaker hydrogen bonds and π–π stacking inter­actions is comparable. The distinct structural roles of different kinds of inter­actions agree with the results of a Hirshfeld surface analysis and calculated inter­action energies. The title compound provides insights into co-crystals of active agrochemical mol­ecules and features the rational integration in one structure of a fungicide, C3H3N3O2, and a second active component, C5H8N2, known for alleviation the toxic effects of fungicides on plants. The material appears to be well suited for practical uses, being non-volatile, air-stable, water-soluble, but neither hygroscopic nor efflorescent.

The asymmetric unit of the title compound, C25H18N6·H2O, comproses two mol­ecules (I and II), together with a water mol­ecule. The terminal phenyl groups attached to the methyl groups of the mol­ecules I and II do not overlap completely, but are approximately perpendicular. In the crystal, the mol­ecules are connected by N—H⋯N, C—H⋯N, O—H⋯N and N—H⋯O hydrogen bonds with each other directly and through water mol­ecules, forming layers parallel to the (001) plane. C—H⋯π inter­actions between these layers ensure the cohesion of the crystal structure. A Hirshfeld surface analysis indicates that H⋯H (39.1% for mol­ecule I; 40.0% for mol­ecule II), C⋯H/H⋯C (26.6% for mol­ecule I and 25.8% for mol­ecule II) and N⋯H/H⋯N (24.3% for mol­ecules I and II) inter­actions are the most important contributors to the crystal packing.

This study introduces bis­[hexa­kis­(nitrato-κ2O,O')lanthanum(III)] tris­[hexa­aqua­nickel(II)] hexa­hydrate, [La(NO3)6]2[Ni(H2O)6]3·6H2O, with a structure refined in the hexa­gonal space group Roverline{3}. The salt com­prises [La(NO3)6]3− icosa­hedra and [Ni(H2O)6]2+ octa­hedra, thus forming an intricate network of inter­penetrating honeycomb lattices arranged in layers. This arrangement is stabilized through strong hydrogen bonds. Two successive layers are connected via the second [Ni(H2O)6]2+ octa­hedra, forming sheets which are stacked perpendicular to the c axis and held in the crystal by van der Waals forces. The synthesis of [La(NO3)6]2[Ni(H2O)6]3·6H2O involves dissolving lanthanum(III) and nickel(II) oxides in nitric acid, followed by slow evaporation, yielding green hexa­gonal plate-like crystals.

Two 2,4,6-tri­methyl­aniline-based trifuloro­methane­sulfonate (tri­fluoro­methane­sulfonate) salts were synthesized and characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. N,2,4,6-Tetra­methyl­anilinium tri­fluoro­methane­sulfonate, [C10H14NH2+][CF3O3S−] (1), was synthesized via methyl­ation of 2,4,6-tri­methyl­aniline. N-Iso­propyl­idene-N,2,4,6-tetra­methyl­anilinium tri­fluoro­meth­ane­sulfonate, [C13H20N+][CF3O3S−] (2), was synthesized in a two-step reaction where the imine, N-iso­propyl­idene-2,4,6-tri­methyl­aniline, was first prepared via a dehydration reaction to form the Schiff base, followed by methyl­ation using methyl tri­fluoro­methane­sulfonate to form the iminium ion. In compound 1, both hydrogen bonding and π–π inter­actions form the main inter­molecular inter­actions. The primary inter­action is a strong N—H⋯O hydrogen bond with the oxygen atoms of the tri­fluoro­methane­sulfonate anions bonded to the hydrogen atoms of the ammonium nitro­gen atom to generate a one-dimensional chain. The [C10H14NH2+] cations form dimers where the benzene rings form a π–π inter­action with a parallel-displaced geometry. The separation distance between the calculated centroids of the benzene rings is 3.9129 (8) Å, and the inter­planar spacing and ring slippage between the dimers are 3.5156 (5) and 1.718 Å, respectively. For 2, the [C13H20N+] cations also form dimers as in 1, but with the benzene rings highly slipped. The distance between the calculated centroids of the benzene rings is 4.8937 (8) Å, and inter­planar spacing and ring slippage are 3.3646 (5) and 3.553 Å, respectively. The major inter­molecular inter­actions in 2 are instead a series of weaker C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds [C⋯O distances of 3.1723 (17), 3.3789 (18), and 3.3789 (18) Å], an inter­action virtually absent in the structure of 1. Fluorine atoms are not involved in strong directional inter­actions in either structure.

The title compound, ammonium trinickel(II) hydrogen arsenate arsenate di­hydroxide, was synthesized under hydro­thermal conditions. Its crystal structure is isotypic with that of K[Cu3(HAsO4)(AsO4)(OH)2] and is characterized by pseudo-hexa­gonal (001) 2∞[Ni3As2O18/3(OH)6/3O1/1(OH)1/1]− layers formed from vertex- and edge-sharing [NiO4(OH)2] octa­hedra and [AsO3.5(OH)0.5] tetra­hedra as the building units. The hydrogen atom of the OH group shows occupational disorder and was refined with a site occupation factor of 1/2, indicating the equal presence of [HAsO4]2– and [AsO4]3– groups. Strong asymmetric hydrogen bonds between symmetry-related (O,OH) groups of the arsenate units [O⋯O = 2.588 (18) Å] as well as hydrogen bonds accepted by these (O,OH) groups from OH groups bonded to the NiII atoms [O⋯O = 2.848 (12) Å] link adjacent layers. Additional consolidation of the packing is achieved through N—H⋯O hydrogen bonds from the ammonium ion, which is sandwiched between adjacent layers [N⋯O = 2.930 (7) Å] although the H atoms could not be located in the present study. The presence of the pseudo-hexa­gonal 2∞[Ni3As2O18/3(OH)6/3O1/1(OH)1/1]− layers may be the reason for the systematic threefold twinning of (NH4)[Ni3(HAsO4)(AsO4)(OH)2] crystals. Significant overlaps of the reflections of the respective twin domains complicated the structure solution and refinement.

The title compound, C12H10N2O3, was obtained by the de­acetyl­ation reaction of 1-(6-amino-5-nitro­naphthalen-2-yl)ethanone in a concentrated sulfuric acid methanol solution. The mol­ecule comprises a naphthalene ring system bearing an acetyl group (C-3), an amino group (C-7), and a nitro group (C-8). In the crystal, the mol­ecules are assembled into a two-dimensional network by N⋯H/H⋯N and O⋯H/H⋯O hydrogen-bonding inter­actions. n–π and π–π stacking inter­actions are the dominant inter­actions in the three-dimensional crystal packing. Hirshfeld surface analysis indicates that the most important contributions are from O⋯H/H⋯O (34.9%), H⋯H (33.7%), and C⋯H/H⋯C (11.0%) contacts. The energies of the frontier mol­ecular orbitals were computed using density functional theory (DFT) calculations at the B3LYP-D3BJ/def2-TZVP level of theory and the LUMO–HOMO energy gap of the mol­ecule is 3.765 eV.

The few examples of structures containing the 2-chloro-N,N-di­methyl­ethan-1-aminium or 3-chloro-N,N-di­methyl­propan-1-aminium cations show a compet­ition between gauche and anti conformations for the chloro­alkyl chain. To explore further the conformational landscape of these cations, and their possible use as mol­ecular switches, the title salts, (C4H11ClN)2[CoCl4] and (C4H11ClN)2[ZnCl4], were prepared and structurally characterized. Details of both structures are in close agreement. The inorganic complex exhibits a slightly flattened tetra­hedral geometry that likely arises from bifurcated N—H hydrogen bonds from the organic cations. The alkyl chain of the cation is disordered between gauche and anti conformations with the gauche conformation occupancy refined to 0.707 (2) for the cobaltate. The gauche conformation places the terminal Cl atom at a tetra­hedral face of the inorganic complex with a contact distance of 3.7576 (9) Å to the Co2+ center. The anti conformation places the terminal Cl atom at a contact distance to a neighboring anti conformation terminal Cl atom that is ∼1 Å less than the sum of the van der Waals radii. Thus, if the anti conformation is present at a site, then the nearest neighbor must be gauche. DFT geometry optimizations indicate the gauche conformation is more stable in vacuo by 0.226 eV, which reduces to 0.0584 eV when calculated in a uniform dielectric. DFT geometry optimizations for the unprotonated mol­ecule indicate the anti conformation is stabilized by 0.0428 eV in vacuo, with no strongly preferred conformation in uniform dielectric, to provide support to the notion that this cation could function as a mol­ecular switch via deprotonation.

4,4'-(Disulfanedi­yl)dipyridinium chloride triiodide, C10H10N2S22+·Cl−·I3−, (1) was synthesized by reaction of 4,4'-di­pyridyl­disulfide with ICl in a 1:1 molar ratio in di­chloro­methane solution. The structural characterization of 1 by SC-XRD analysis was supported by elemental analysis, FT–IR, and FT–Raman spectroscopic measurements.

The title coordination polymer with the 4-methyl-N-(pyridin-2-yl­methyl­idene)aniline Schiff base ligand (L, C13H12N2), [Cd2Cl4(C13H12N2)]n (1), exhibits a columnar structure extending parallel to [100]. The columns are aligned in parallel and are decorated with chelating L ligands on both sides. They are elongated into a supra­molecular sheet extending parallel to (01overline{1}) through π–π stacking inter­actions involving L ligands of neighbouring columns. Adjacent sheets are packed into the tri-periodic supra­molecular network through weak C—H⋯Cl hydrogen-bonding inter­actions that involve the phenyl CH groups and chlorido ligands. The thermal stability and photoluminescent properties of (1) have also been examined.

Title compound 1Ni, [Ni(C46H32N4O2)], a secochlorin nickel complex, was prepared by diol cleavage of a precursor trans-di­hydroxy­dimethyl­chlorin. Two crystallographically independent mol­ecules in the structure are related by pseudo-A lattice centering, with mol­ecules differing mainly by a rotation of one of the acetyls and an adjacent phenyl groups. The two mol­ecules have virtually identical conformations characterized by noticeable in-plane deformation in the A1g mode and a prominent out-of-plane deformation in the B1u (ruffling) mode. Directional inter­actions between mol­ecules are scarce, limited to just a few C—H⋯O contacts, and inter­molecular inter­actions are mostly dispersive in nature.

The structural characterization is reported of the supra­molecular complex between the tetra­quinoxaline-based cavitand 2,8,14,20-tetra­hexyl-6,10:12,16:18,22:24,4-O,O'-tetra­kis­(quinoxaline-2,3-di­yl)calix[4]resorcinarene (QxCav) with benzo­nitrile. The complex, of general formula C84H80N8O8·2C7H5N, crystallizes in the space group Poverline{1} with two independent mol­ecules in the asymmetric unit, displaying very similar geometrical parameters. For each complex, one of the benzo­nitrile mol­ecules is engulfed inside the cavity, while the other is located among the alkyl legs at the lower rim. The host and the guests mainly inter­act through weak C—H⋯π, C—H⋯N and dispersion inter­actions. These inter­actions help to consolidate the formation of supra­molecular chains running along the crystallographic b-axis direction.

This title compound, C20H26O2, was isolated from the benzene fraction of the stem bark of Staudtia kamerunensis Warb. (Myristicaceae) using column chromatography techniques over silica gel. The compound was fully characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction, one and two-dimensional NMR spectroscopy, IR and MS spectrometry. The compound has two fused cyclo­hexane rings attached to a benzene ring, with a carb­oxy­lic acid on C-4. This cyclo­hexene ring has a chair conformation while the other adopts a half-chair conformation. The benzene ring is substituted with a propenyl moiety. The structure is characterized by inter­molecular O—H⋯O hydrogen bonds, two C—H⋯O intra­molecular hydrogen bonds and two C—H⋯π inter­actions. The mol­ecular structure confirms previous studies carried out by spectroscopic techniques.

The crystal structures of 2-[1'-(carb­oxy­meth­yl)-4,4'-bi­pyridine-1,1'-diium-1-yl]acetate tetra­fluoro­borate, C14H13N2O4+·BF4− or (Hbcbpy)(BF4), and neutral 1,1'-bis­(carboxyl­atometh­yl)-4,4'-bi­pyridine-1,1'-diium (bcbpy), C14H20N2O8, are reported. The asymmetric unit of the (Hbcbpy)(BF4) consists of a Hbcbpy+ monocation, a BF4− anion, and one-half of a water mol­ecule. The BF4− anion is disordered. Two pyridinium rings of the Hbcbpy+ monocation are twisted at a torsion angle of 30.3 (2)° with respect to each other. The Hbcbpy monocation contains a carb­oxy­lic acid group and a deprotonated carboxyl­ate group. Both groups exhibit both a long and a short C—O bond. The cations are linked by inter­molecular hydrogen-bonding inter­actions between the carb­oxy­lic acid and the deprotonated carboxyl­ate group to give one-dimensional zigzag chains. The asymmetric unit of the neutral bcbpy consists of one-half of the bcbpy and two water mol­ecules. In contrast to the Hbcbpy+ monocation, the neutral bcbpy mol­ecule contains two pyridinium rings that are coplanar with each other and a carboxyl­ate group with similar C—O bond lengths. The mol­ecules are connected by inter­molecular hydrogen-bonding inter­actions between water mol­ecules and carboxyl­ate groups, forming a three-dimensional hydrogen-bonding network.

The synthesis, crystal structure, and a Hirshfeld surface analysis of tris­{N,N-diethyl-N'-[(4-nitro­phen­yl)(oxo)meth­yl]carbamimido­thio­ato}cobalt(III) conducted at 180 K are presented. The complex consists of three N,N-diethyl-N'-[(4-nitro­benzene)(oxo)meth­yl]carbamimido­thio­ato ligands, threefold sym­metric­ally bonded about the CoIII ion, in approximately octa­hedral coordination, which generates a triple of individually near planar metallacyclic (Co—S—C—N—C—O) rings. The overall geometry of the complex is determined by the mutual orientation of each metallacycle about the crystallographically imposed threefold axis [dihedral angles = 81.70 (2)°] and by the dihedral angles between the various planar groups within each asymmetric unit [metallacycle to benzene ring = 13.83 (7)°; benzene ring to nitro group = 17.494 (8)°]. The complexes stack in anti-parallel columns about the overline{3} axis of the space group (Poverline{3}), generating solvent-accessible channels along [001]. These channels contain ill-defined, multiply disordered, partial-occupancy solvent. Atom–atom contacts in the crystal packing predominantly (∼96%) involve hydrogen, the most abundant types being H⋯H (36.6%), H⋯O (31.0%), H⋯C (19.2%), H⋯N (4.8%), and H⋯S (4.4%).

The oxidation of me­thionyl peptides can contribute to increased biological (oxidative) stress and development of various inflammatory diseases. The conformation of peptides has an important role in the mechanism of oxidation and the inter­mediates formed in the reaction. Herein, the crystal structures of the isomeric dipeptides Gly-Met (Gly = glycine and Met = me­thio­nine) and Met-Gly, both C7H14N2O3S, are reported. Both mol­ecules exist in the solid state as zwitterions with nominal proton transfer from the carb­oxy­lic acid to the primary amine group. The Gly-Met mol­ecule has an extended backbone structure, while Met-Gly has two nearly planar regions kinked at the C atom bearing the NH3 group. In the crystals, both structures form extensive three-dimensional hydrogen-bonding networks via N—H⋯O and bifurcated N—H⋯(O,O) hydrogen bonds having N⋯O distances in the range 2.6619 (13)–2.8513 (13) Å for Gly-Met and 2.6273 (8)–3.1465 (8) Å for Met-Gly.

This study presents the synthesis, characterization and Hirshfeld surface analysis of a small organic ammonium salt, C2H7BrN+·Br−. Small cations like the one in the title compound are considered promising components of hybrid perovskites, crucial for optoelectronic and photovoltaic applications. While the incorporation of this organic cation into various hybrid perovskite structures has been explored, its halide salt counterpart remains largely uninvestigated. The obtained structural results are valuable for the synthesis and phase analysis of hybrid perovskites. The title compound crystallizes in the solvent-free form in the centrosymmetric monoclinic space group P21/c, featuring one organic cation and one bromide anion in its asymmetric unit, with a torsion angle of −64.8 (2)° between the ammonium group and the bromine substituent, positioned in a gauche conformation. The crystal packing is predominantly governed by Br⋯H inter­actions, which constitute 62.6% of the overall close atom contacts.

The title compound, [Re(C17H22N3O2S)(CO)3] is a net neutral fac-Re(I)(CO)3 complex of the 4-methyl­biphenyl sulfonamide derivatized di­ethyl­enetri­amine ligand. The NNN-donor monoanionic ligand coordinates with the Re core in tridentate fashion, establishing an inner coordination sphere resulting in a net neutral complex. The complex possesses pseudo-octa­hedral geometry where one face of the octa­hedron is occupied by three carbonyl ligands and the other faces are occupied by one sp2 nitro­gen atom of the sulfonamide group and two sp3 nitro­gen atoms of the dien backbone. The Re—Nsp2 bond distance, 2.173 (4) Å, is shorter than the Re—Nsp3 bond distances, 2.217 (5) and 2.228 (6) Å, and is similar to the range reported for typical Re—Nsp2 bond lengths (2.14 to 2.18 Å).

The title compound, [Ni(NCS)2(C6H7N)2]n, was prepared by the reaction of Ni(NCS)2 with 4-methyl­pyridine in water. Its asymmetric unit consists of two crystallographically independent NiII cations, of which one is located on a twofold rotational axis whereas the second occupies a center of inversion, two independent thio­cyanate anions and two independent 4-methyl­pyridine co­ligands in general positions. Each NiII cation is octa­hedrally coordinated by two 4-methyl­pyridine coligands as well as two N- and two S-bonded thio­cyanate anions. One of the cations shows an all-trans, the other a cis–cis–trans configuration. The metal centers are linked by pairs of μ-1,3-bridging thio­cyanate anions into [101] chains. X-ray powder diffraction shows that a pure crystalline phase has been obtained and thermogravimetry coupled to differential thermoanalysis reveals that the title compound loses half of the 4-methyl­pyridine coligands and transforms into Ni(NCS)2(C6H7N). Nearly pure samples of this compound can be obtained by thermal annealing and a Rietveld refinement demonstrated that it is isotypic to its recently reported Cd analog [Neumann et al., (2020). CrystEngComm. 22, 184–194] In its crystal structure, the metal cations are linked by one μ-1,3(N,S)- and one μ-1,3,3(N,S,S)-bridging thio­cyanate anion into single chains that condense via the μ-1,3,3(N,S,S)-bridging anionic ligands into double chains.

A new quinoline derivative, namely, 6-(di­ethyl­amino)-4-phenyl-2-(pyridin-2-yl)quinoline, C24H23N3 (QP), and its MnII complex aqua-1κO-di-μ-chlorido-1:2κ4Cl:Cl-di­chlorido-1κCl,2κCl-bis­[6-(di­ethyl­amino)-4-phenyl-2-(pyridin-2-yl)quinoline]-1κ2N1,N2;2κ2N1,N2-dimanganese(II), [Mn2Cl4(C24H23N3)2(H2O)] (MnQP), were synthesized. Their compositions have been determined with ESI-MS, IR, and 1H NMR spectroscopy. The crystal-structure determination of MnQP revealed a dinuclear complex with a central four-membered Mn2Cl2 ring. Both MnII atoms bind to an additional Cl atom and to two N atoms of the QP ligand. One MnII atom expands its coordination sphere with an extra water mol­ecule, resulting in a distorted octa­hedral shape. The second MnII atom shows a distorted trigonal–bipyramidal shape. The UV–vis absorption and emission spectra of the examined compounds were studied. Furthermore, when investigating the aggregation-induced emission (AIE) properties, it was found that the fluorescent color changes from blue to green and eventually becomes yellow as the fraction of water in the THF/water mixture increases from 0% to 99%. In particular, these color and intensity changes are most pronounced at a water fraction of 60%. The crystal structure contains disordered solvent mol­ecules, which could not be modeled. The SQUEEZE procedure [Spek (2015). Acta Cryst. C71, 9–18] was used to obtain information on the type and qu­antity of solvent mol­ecules, which resulted in 44 electrons in a void volume of 274 Å3, corresponding to approximately 1.7 mol­ecules of ethanol in the unit cell. These ethanol mol­ecules are not considered in the given chemical formula and other crystal data.

A new polymorph of the diuretic chloro­thia­zide, 6-chloro-1,1-dioxo-2H-1,2,4-benzo­thia­zine-7-sulfonamide, C7H6ClN3O4S2, is described. Crystallized from basic aqueous solution, this monoclinic polymorph is found to be less thermodynamically favoured than the known triclinic polymorph and to feature only N—H⋯O type inter­molecular hydrogen bonds as opposed to the N—H⋯O and N—H⋯N type hydrogen bonds found in the P1 form.

Reaction of thorium(IV) nitrate with 2-[(4-phenyl-1H-1,2,3-triazol-1-yl)meth­yl]pyridine (L) yielded (LH)2[Th(NO3)6] or (C14H13N4)2[Th(NO3)6] (1), instead of the expected mixed-ligand complex [Th(NO3)4L2], which was detected in the mass spectrum of 1. In the structure, the [Th(NO3)6]2− anions display an icosa­hedral coordination geometry and are connected by LH+ cations through C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds. The LH+ cations inter­act via N—H⋯N hydrogen bonds. Hirshfeld surface analysis indicates that the most important inter­actions are O⋯H/H⋯O hydrogen-bonding inter­actions, which represent a 55.2% contribution.

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.

In the title complex, [U(C10H7N3O3)O2(CH3OH)]n, the UVI cation has a typical penta­gonal–bipyramidal environment with the equatorial plane defined by one N and two O atoms of one doubly deprotonated 2-[5-(2-hy­droxy­phen­yl)-1H-1,2,4-triazol-3-yl]acetic acid ligand, a carboxyl­ate O atom of the symmetry-related ligand and the O atom of the methanol mol­ecule [U—N/Oeq 2.256 (4)–2.504 (5) Å]. The axial positions are occupied by two oxide O atoms. The equatorial atoms are almost coplanar, with the largest deviation from the mean plane being 0.121 Å for one of the O atoms. The benzene and triazole rings of the tetra­dentate chelating–bridging ligand are twisted by approximately 21.6 (2)° with respect to each other. The carboxyl­ate group of the ligand bridges two uranyl cations, forming a neutral zigzag chain reinforced by a strong O—H⋯O hydrogen bond. In the crystal, adjacent chains are linked into two-dimensional sheets parallel to the ac plane by C/N—H⋯N/O hydrogen bonding and π–π inter­actions. Further weak C—H⋯O contacts consolidate the three-dimensional supra­molecular architecture. In the solid state, the compound shows a broad medium intensity LMCT transition centred around 463 nm, which is responsible for its red colour.

The crystal structures of two inter­mediates, 4-amino-3,5-di­fluoro­benzo­nitrile, C7H4F2N2 (I), and ethyl 4-amino-3,5-di­fluoro­benzoate, C9H9F2NO2 (II), along with a visible-light-responsive azo­benzene derivative, diethyl 4,4'-(diazene-1,2-di­yl)bis­(3,5-di­fluoro­benzoate), C18H14F4N2O4 (III), obtained by four-step synthetic procedure, were studied using single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The mol­ecules of I and II demonstrate the quinoid character of phenyl rings accompanied by the distortion of bond angles related to the presence of fluorine substituents in the 3 and 5 (ortho) positions. In the crystals of I and II, the mol­ecules are connected by N—H⋯N, N—H⋯F and N—H⋯O hydrogen bonds, C—H⋯F short contacts, and π-stacking inter­actions. In crystal of III, only stacking inter­actions between the mol­ecules are found.

In the title compound, bis­[aqua­(2,2'-bi­pyridine)­fluorido­tin(II)] hexa­fluorido­tin(IV), [SnF(C10H8N2)(H2O)]2[SnF6], an ionic mixed-valent tin(II)–tin(IV) compound, the bivalent tin atom is the center atom of the cation and the tetra­valent tin atom is the center atom of the anion. With respect to the first coordination sphere, the cation is monomeric, with the tin(II) atom having a fourfold seesaw coordination with a fluorine atom in an equatorial position, a water mol­ecule in an axial position and the two nitro­gen atoms of the chelating 2,2'-bi­pyridine ligand in the remaining axial and equatorial positions. The bond lengths and angles of this hypervalent first coordination sphere are described by 2c–2e and 3c–4e bonds, respectively, all of which are based on the orthogonal 5p orbitals of the tin atom. In the second coordination sphere, which is based on an additional, very long tin–fluorine bond that leads to dimerization of the cation, the tin atom is trapezoidal–pyramidally coordinated. The tetra­valent tin atom of the centrosymmetric anion has an octa­hedral coordination. The differences in its tin–fluorine bond lengths are attributed to hydrogen bonding, as the two of the four fluorine atoms are each involved in two hydrogen bonds, linking anions and cations together to form strands.

The title compound, C17H13BrN4O5, was synthesized by a Cu2Br2-catalysed Meldal–Sharpless reaction between 4-nitro­phen­oxy­acetic acid propargyl ether and para-bromo­phenyl­azide, and characterized by X-ray structure determination and 1H NMR spectroscopy. The mol­ecules, with a near-perpendicular orientation of the bromo­phenyl-triazole and nitro­phen­oxy­acetate fragments, are connected into a three-dimensional network by inter­molecular C—H⋯O and C—H⋯N hydrogen bonds (confirmed by Hirshfeld surface analysis), π–π and Br–π inter­actions.

The crystal structure of hexa­glycinium tetra-μ-iodido-octa­iodido­triplumbate, (C2H6NO2)6[Pb3I12] or (GlyH)6[Pb3I12], is reported. The compound crystallizes in the triclinic space group Poverline{1}. The [Pb3I12]6− anion is discrete and located around a special position: the central Pb ion located on the inversion center is holodirected, while the other two are hemidirected. The supra­molecular nature is mainly based on C—H⋯I, N—H⋯I, O—H⋯I and N—H⋯O hydrogen bonds. Dimeric cations of type (A+⋯A+) for the amino acid glycine are observed for the first time.

The title compound, poly[bis­(β-alaninium) [[di­bromido­plumbate]-di-μ-di­bromido]] {(C2H8NO2)2[PbBr4]}n or (β-AlaH)2PbBr4, crystallizes in the monoclinic space group P21/n. The (PbBr4)2− anion is located on a general position and has a two-dimensional polymeric structure. The Pb center is holodirected. The supra­molecular network is mainly based on O—H⋯Br, N—H⋯Br and N—H⋯O hydrogen bonds.

The cyclic peptide cyclo(Val-Leu-Leu-d-Phe-Pro)2 (peptide 1) was specifically designed for structural chemistry investigations, drawing inspiration from Gramicidin S (GS). Previous studies have shown that Pro residues within 1 adopt a down-puckering conformation of the pyrrolidine ring. By incorporating fluoride-Pro with 4-trans/cis-isomers into 1, an up-puckering conformation was successfully induced. In the current investigation, introducing hy­droxy­prolines with 4-trans/cis-isomer configurations (tHyp/cHyp) into 1 gave cyclo(Val-Leu-Leu-d-Phe-tHyp)2 methanol disolvate monohydrate, C62H94N10O12·2CH4O·H2O (4), and cyclo(Val-Leu-Leu-d-Phe-cHyp)2 monohydrate, C62H94N10O12·H2O (5), respectively. However, the puckering of 4 and 5 remained in the down conformation, regardless of the geometric position of the hydroxyl group. Although the backbone structure of 4 with trans-substitution was asymmetric, the asymmetric backbone of 5 with cis-substitution was unexpected. It is speculated that the anti­cipated influence of stress from the geometric positioning, which was expected to affect the puckering, may have been mitigated by inter­actions between the hydroxyl groups of hy­droxy­proline, the solvent mol­ecules, and peptides.

Propane-1,3-diaminium squarate dihydrate, C3H12N22+·C4O42−·2H2O, results from the proton-transfer reaction of propane-1,3-di­amine with squaric acid and subsequent crystallization from aqueous medium. The title compound crystallizes in the tetra­gonal crystal system (space group P4bm) with Z = 2. The squarate dianion belongs to the point group D4h and contains a crystallographic fourfold axis. The propane-1,3-diaminium dication exhibits a C2v-symmetric all-anti conformation and resides on a special position with mm2 site symmetry. The orientation of the propane-1,3-diaminium ions makes the crystal structure polar in the c-axis direction. The solid-state supra­molecular structure features a triperiodic network of strong hydrogen bonds of the N—H⋯O and O—H⋯O types.

In the structure of the title salt, {[Ba(μ3-C3H2N3O2)2(μ-H2O)(H2O)]·H2O}n, the barium ion and all three oxygen atoms of the water mol­ecules reside on a mirror plane. The hydrogen atoms of the bridging water and the solvate water mol­ecules are arranged across a mirror plane whereas all atoms of the monodentate aqua ligand are situated on this mirror plane. The distorted ninefold coord­ination of the Ba ions is completed with four nitroso-, two carbonyl- and three aqua-O atoms at the distances of 2.763 (3)–2.961 (4) Å and it is best described as tricapped trigonal prism. The three-dimensional framework structure is formed by face-sharing of the trigonal prisms, via μ-nitroso- and μ-aqua-O atoms, and also by the bridging coordination of the anions via carbonyl-O atoms occupying two out of the three cap positions. The solvate water mol­ecules populate the crystal channels and facilitate a set of four directional hydrogen bonds. The principal Ba–carbamoyl­cyano­nitro­somethanido linkage reveals a rare example of the inherently polar binodal six- and three-coordinated bipartite topology (three-letter notation sit). It suggests that small resonance-stabilized cyano­nitroso anions can be utilized as bridging ligands for the supra­molecular synthesis of MOF solids. Such an outcome may be anti­cipated for a broader range of hard Lewis acidic alkaline earth metal ions, which perfectly match the coordination preferences of highly nucleophilic nitroso-O atoms. Thermal analysis reveals two-stage dehydration of the title compound (383 and 473 K) followed by decomposition with release of CO2, HCN and H2O at 558 K.

The asymmetric unit of the title salt, C7H8N3+·C7H5O6S−, comprises two 1,3-di­hydro-2H-benzimidazol-2-iminium cations and two 2-hy­droxy-5-sulfobenzoate anions (Z' = 2). In the crystal, the mol­ecules inter­act through N—H⋯O, O—H⋯O hydrogen bonds and C—O⋯π contacts. The hydrogen-bonding inter­actions lead to the formation of layers parallel to (overline{1}01). Hirshfeld surface analysis revealed that H⋯H contacts contribute to most of the crystal packing with 38.9%, followed by H⋯O contacts with 36.2%.

This work describes the X-ray structure of orange–red crystals of 2-meth­oxy-5-nitro­aniline, C7H8N2O3. The compound displays concentration-dependent UV-Vis spectra, which is attributed to dipole-induced aggregation, and light absorption arising from an inter­molecular charge-transfer process that decreases in energy as the degree of aggregation increases. The crystals display π-stacking where the dipole moments align anti­parallel. Stacked mol­ecules inter­act with the next stack via hydrogen bonds, which is a state of maximum aggregation. Light absorption by charge transfer can be compared to colored inorganic semiconductors such as orange–red CdS, with a band gap of 2.0–2.5 eV.

The synthesis of the title compound, [Zn(C4H6N2)6](NO3)2, is described. This complex consists of a central zinc metal ion surrounded by six 1-methyl­imidazole ligands, charge balanced by two nitrate anions. The complex crystallizes in the space group Poverline{3}. In the crystal, the nitrate ions are situated within the cavities created by the [Zn(N-Melm)6]2+ cations, serving as counter-ions. The three oxygen atoms of the nitrate ion engage in weak C—H⋯O inter­actions. In addition to single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis, the complex was characterized using elemental analysis, 1H NMR, 13C NMR, and FTIR spectroscopy.

When reacted in dry, degassed toluene, [Ir(COD)Cl]2 (COD = cyclo­octa-1,5-diene) and 2 equivalents of 2-(di-tert-butyl­phosphinito)anthra­quinone (tBuPOAQH) were found to form a unique tri-iridium compound consisting of one monoanionic dinuclear tri-μ-chlorido complex bearing one bidentate tBuPOAQ ligand per iridium, which was charge-balanced by an outer sphere [Ir(toluene)(COD)]+ ion, the structure of which has not previously been reported. This product, which is a toluene solvate, namely, (η2:η2-cyclo­octa-1,5-diene)(η6-toluene)­iridium(I) tri-μ-chlorido-bis­({3-[(di-tert-butyl­phosphan­yl)­oxy]-9,10-dioxoanthracen-2-yl}hydridoiridium(III)) toluene monosolvate, [Ir(C7H8)(C8H12)][Ir2H2(C22H24O3P)2Cl3]·C7H8 or [Ir(toluene)(COD)][Ir(κ-P,C-tBuPOAQ)(H)]2(μ-Cl)3]·toluene, formed as small orange platelets at room temperature, crystallizing in the triclinic space group Poverline{1}. The cation and anion are linked via weak C—H⋯O inter­actions. The stronger inter­molecular attractions are likely the offset parallel π–π inter­actions, which occur between the toluene ligands of pairs of inverted cations and between pairs of inverted anthra­quinone moieties, the latter of which are capped by toluene solvate mol­ecules, making for π-stacks of four mol­ecules each. The related ligand, 2-(di-tert-butyl­phosphinometh­yl)-anthra­quinone (tBuPCAQH), did not form crystals suitable for X-ray diffraction under analogous reaction conditions. However, when the reaction was conducted in chloro­form, yellow needles readily formed following addition of 1 atm of carbon monoxide. Diffraction studies revealed a neutral, dinuclear, di-μ-chlorido complex, di-μ-chlorido-bis­(carbon­yl{3-[(di-tert-butyl­phosphan­yl)­oxy]-9,10-dioxoanthracen-2-yl}hydridoiridium(I)), [Ir2H2(C23H26O2P)2Cl2(CO)2] or [Ir(κ-P,C-tBuPCAQ)(H)(CO)(μ-Cl)]2, Ir2C48H54Cl2O6P2, again crystallizing in space group Poverline{1}. Offset parallel π–π inter­actions between anthra­quinone groups of adjacent mol­ecules link the mol­ecules in one dimension.

The mol­ecule of the title compound, [Ni(C5H7O2)2(C8H9N3)(H2O)]·C2H5OH, has triclinic (Poverline{1}) symmetry. This compound is of inter­est for its anti­microbial properties. The asymmetric unit comprises two independent complex mol­ecules, which are linked by N—H⋯O and O—H⋯O hydrogen bonds along [111]. Hirshfeld surface analysis indicates that 71.7% of inter­mol­ecular inter­actions come from H⋯H contacts, 17.7% from C⋯H/H⋯C contacts and 7.6% from O⋯H/H⋯O contacts, with the remaining contribution coming from N⋯H/H⋯N, C⋯N/N⋯C, C⋯C and O⋯O contacts.

The title compound, (C9H8NO)[CuCl3(C7H5NO4)]·2H2O, was prepared by reacting CuII acetate dihydrate, solid 8-hy­droxy­quinoline (8-HQ), and solid pyridine-2,6-di­carb­oxy­lic acid (H2pydc), in a 1:1:1 molar ratio, in an aqueous solution of dilute hydro­chloric acid. The CuII atom exhibits a distorted CuO2NCl3 octa­hedral geometry, coordinating two oxygen atoms and one nitro­gen atom from the tridentate H2pydc ligand and three chloride atoms; the nitro­gen atom and one chloride atom occupy the axial positions with Cu—N and Cu—Cl bond lengths of 2.011 (2) Å and 2.2067 (9) Å, respectively. In the equatorial plane, the oxygen and chloride atoms are arranged in a cis configuration, with Cu—O bond lengths of 2.366 (2) and 2.424 (2) Å, and Cu—Cl bond lengths of 2.4190 (10) and 2.3688 (11) Å. The asymmetric unit contains 8-HQ+ as a counter-ion and two uncoordinated water mol­ecules. The crystal structure features strong O—H⋯O and O—H⋯Cl hydrogen bonds as well as weak inter­actions including C—H⋯O, C—H⋯Cl, Cu—Cl⋯π, and π–π, which result in a three-dimensional network. A Hirshfeld surface analysis indicates that the most important contributions to the crystal packing involving the main residues are from H⋯Cl/Cl⋯H inter­actions, contributing 40.3% for the anion. Weak H⋯H contacts contribute 13.2% for the cation and 28.6% for the anion.

The crystal structure of the title compound, [Ni(C8H20N4)(NO3)]NO3, at room temperature, has monoclinic (P21/n) symmetry. The structure displays inter­molecular hydrogen bonding. The nickel displays a distorted bipyramidal geometry with the symmetric bidentate bonded nitrate occupying an equatorial site. The 1,4,7,10-tetra­aza­cyclo­dodecane (cyclen) backbone has the [4,8] configuration, with three nitro­gen-bound H atoms directed above the plane of the nitro­gen atoms towards the offset nickel atom with the fourth nitro­gen-bound hydrogen directed below from the plane of the nitro­gen atoms. The nitrate anion O atoms are seen to hydrogen bond to the H atoms bound to the N atoms of the ligand.

The isolation and crystalline structure of N,N'-di­benzyl­ethyl­enedi­ammonium dichloride, C16H22N22+·2Cl−, is reported. This was obtained as an unintended product of an attempted Curtius rearrangement that involved benzyl­amine as one of the reagents and 1,2-di­chloro­ethane as the solvent. Part of a series of reactions of a course-based undergraduate research experience (CURE), this was not the intended reaction outcome. The goal of the course was to engage students as active participants in a laboratory experience which applies the foundational techniques of a synthetic organic laboratory, using the Curtius rearrangement as a tool for the assembly of medicinally significant scaffolds. The isolation of the title compound, N,N'-di­benzyl­ethyl­enedi­ammonium dichloride, the result of the 1,2-di­chloro­ethane solvent outcompeting the Curtius iso­cyanate inter­mediate in the reaction with the nucleophilic amine, confirms the importance of conducting research at the undergraduate level where the outcome is not predetermined. The solid-state structure of N,N'-di­benzyl­ethyl­enedi­ammonium dichloride was found to feature an all-trans methyl­ene-ammonium backbone. Strong N—H⋯Cl hydrogen bonds and C—H⋯Cl inter­actions lead to a layered structure with pseudo-translational symmetry emulating a C-centered setting. Different phenyl torsion angles at each end of the mol­ecule enable a more stable packing by allowing stronger hydrogen-bonding inter­actions, leading to a more ordered but lower symmetry and modulated structure in P21/n.

The crystal structure of the title organic–inorganic hybrid salt, (C13H12N3)2[CdCl4], (I), has been reported with four mol­ecules in the asymmetric unit in a monoclinic cell [Vassilyeva et al. (2021). RSC Advances, 11, 7713–7722]. While using two different aldehydes in the oxidative cyclization–condensation involving CH3NH2·HCl to prepare a new monovalent cation with the imidazo[1,5-a]pyridinium skeleton, a new polymorph was obtained for (I) in space group P1 and a unit cell with approximately half the volume of the monoclinic form. The structural configurations of the two crystallographically non-equivalent organic cations as well as the geometry of the moderately distorted tetra­hedral CdCl42– dianion show minor changes. In the crystal, identically stacked cations and tetra­chloro­cadmate anions form separate columns parallel to the a axis. The loose packing of the anions leads to a minimal separation of approximately 9.53 Å between the metal atoms in the triclinic form versus 7.51 Å in the monoclinic one, indicating that the latter is packed slightly more densely. The two forms also differ by aromatic stacking motifs. Similar to the monoclinic polymorph, the triclinic one excited at 364 nm shows an intense unsymmetrical photoluminescent band with maximum at 403 nm and a full width at half maximum of 51 nm in the solid state.

In the title compound, C10H8N2·2C6H5NO3, 4-nitro­phenol and 4,4'-bi­pyridine crystallized together in a 2:1 ratio in the space group P21/n. There is a hydrogen-bonding inter­action between the nitro­gen atoms on the 4,4'-bi­pyridine mol­ecule and the hydrogen atom on the hydroxyl group on the 4-nitro­phenol, resulting in trimolecular units. This structure is a polymorph of a previously reported structure [Nayak & Pedireddi (2016). Cryst. Growth Des. 16, 5966–5975], which differs mainly due to a twist in the 4,4'-bi­pyridine mol­ecule.

Crystal growth of 2-(3,4,5-triphen­ylphen­yl)acetic acid (1) from aceto­nitrile yields a monosolvate, C26H20O2·CH3CN, of the space group P1. In the crystal, the title mol­ecule adopts a conformation in which the three phenyl rings are arranged in a paddlewheel-like fashion around the central arene ring and the carboxyl residue is oriented nearly perpendicular to the plane of this benzene ring. Inversion-symmetric dimers of O—H⋯O-bonded mol­ecules of 1 represent the basic supra­molecular entities of the crystal structure. These dimeric mol­ecular units are further linked by C—H⋯O=C bonds to form one-dimensional supra­molecular aggregates running along the crystallographic [111] direction. Weak Car­yl—H⋯N inter­actions occur between the mol­ecules of 1 and aceto­nitrile.

The crystal structure of the title compound, hexa­aqua­nickel(II) dichloride–1,4,7,10,13,16-hexa­oxa­cyclo­octa­deca­ne–water (1/2/2), [Ni(H2O)6]Cl2·2C12H24O6·2H2O, is reported. The asymmetric unit contains half of the Ni(OH2)6 moiety with a formula of C12H32ClNi0.50O10 at 105 K and triclinic (P1) symmetry. The [Ni(OH2)6]2+ cation has close to ideal octa­hedral geometry with O—Ni—O bond angles that are within 3° of idealized values. The supra­molecular structure includes hydrogen bonding between the water ligands, 18-crown-6 mol­ecules, Cl− anions, and co-crystallized water solvent. Two crown ether mol­ecules flank the [Ni(OH2)6]2+ mol­ecule at the axial positions in a sandwich-like structure. The relatively symmetric hydrogen-bonding network is enabled by small Cl− counter-ions and likely influences the more idealized octa­hedral geometry of [Ni(OH2)6]2+.

Reaction of 2-amino-5-iodo­pyridine (5IAP) with concentrated HBr at room temperature yielded 2-amino-5-iodo­pyridinium bromide, C5H6IN2+·Br− or (5IAPH)Br. The complex formed pale-yellow crystals, which exhibit significant hydrogen bonding between the amino and pyridinium N—H donors and bromide ion acceptors. Halogen bonding is also observed. Similarly, reaction of 5IAP with cobalt(II) chloride in mixed HCl/HBr in 1-propanol yielded 2-amino-5-iodo­pyridinium (2-amino-5-iodo­pyridine-κN1)bromido/chlorido­(0.51/2.48)cobalt(II), (C5H6IN2)[CoBr0.51Cl2.48(C5H5IN2)] or (5-IAPH)[(5IAP)CoCl2.48Br0.51], as blue block-shaped crystals. Two of the three halide positions exhibit mixed occupancy [Cl/Br = 0.797 (5):0.203 (5) and 0.689 (6):0.311 (6)], while the third position is occupied solely by a chloride ion. Extensive hydrogen and halogen bonding is observed.

Two new zinc(II) complexes, tri­ethyl­ammonium di­chlorido­[2-(4-nitro­phen­yl)-4-phenyl­quinolin-8-olato]zinc(II), (C6H16N){Zn(C21H13N2O3)Cl2] (ZnOQ), and bis­(tri­ethyl­ammonium) {2,2'-[1,4-phenyl­enebis(nitrilo­methyl­idyne)]diphenolato}bis­[di­chlorido­zinc(II)], (C6H16N)2[Zn2(C20H14N2O2)Cl4] (ZnBS), were synthesized and their structures were determined using ESI–MS spectrometry, 1H NMR spectroscopy, and single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The results showed that the ligands 2-(4-nitro­phen­yl)-4-phenyl­quinolin-8-ol (HOQ) and N,N'-bis­(2-hy­droxy­benzyl­idene)benzene-1,4-di­amine (H2BS) were deprotonated by tri­ethyl-amine, forming the counter-ion Et3NH+, which inter­acts via an N—H⋯O hydrogen bond with the ligand. The ZnII atoms have a distorted trigonal–pyramidal (ZnOQ) and distorted tetra­hedral (ZnBS) geometries with a coord­ination number of four, coordinating with the ligands via N and O atoms. The N atoms coordinating with ZnII correspond to the heterocyclic nitro­gen for the HOQ ligand, while for the H2BS ligand, it is the nitro­gen of the imine (CH=N). The crystal packing of ZnOQ is characterized by C—H⋯π inter­actions, while that of ZnBS by C—H⋯Cl inter­actions. The emission spectra showed that ZnBS complex exhibits green fluorescence in the solid state with a small band-gap energy, and the ZnOQ complex does exhibit non-fluorescence.

The title organic–inorganic hybrid salt, C2H7IN+·I−, is isotypic with its bromine analog, C2H7BrN+·Br− [Semenikhin et al. (2024). Acta Cryst. E80, 738–741]. Its asymmetric unit consists of one 2-iodo­ethyl­ammonium cation and one iodide anion. The NH3+ group of the organic cation forms weak hydrogen bonds with four neighboring iodide anions, leading to the formation of supra­molecular layers propagating parallel to the bc plane. Hirshfeld surface analysis reveals that the most important contribution to the crystal packing is from N—H⋯I inter­actions (63.8%). The crystal under investigation was twinned by a 180° rotation around [001].
