Crystal structure, DFT calculation, Hirshfeld surface analysis and energy framework study of 6-bromo-2-(4-bromo­phen­yl)imidazo[1,2-a]pyridine

The title imidazo[1,2-a] pyridine derivative, C13H8Br2N2, was synthesized via a single-step reaction method. The title mol­ecule is planar, showing a dihedral angle of 0.62 (17)° between the phenyl and the imidazo[1,2-a] pyridine rings. An intra­molecular C—H⋯N hydrogen bond with an S(5) ring motif is present. In the crystal, a short H⋯H contact links adjacent mol­ecules into inversion-related dimers. The dimers are linked in turn by weak C—H⋯π and slipped π–π stacking inter­actions, forming layers parallel to (110). The layers are connected into a three-dimensional network by short Br⋯H contacts. Two-dimensional fingerprint plots and three-dimensional Hirshfeld surface analysis of the inter­molecular contacts reveal that the most important contributions for the crystal packing are from H⋯Br/Br⋯H (26.1%), H⋯H (21.7%), H⋯C/C⋯H (21.3%) and C⋯C (6.5%) inter­actions. Energy framework calculations suggest that the contacts formed between mol­ecules are largely dispersive in nature. Analysis of HOMO–LUMO energies from a DFT calculation reveals the pure π character of the aromatic rings with the highest electron density on the phenyl ring, and σ character of the electron density on the Br atoms. The HOMO–LUMO gap was found to be 4.343 eV.

Synthesis, crystal structure and Hirshfeld surface analysis of 4-[3-(4-hy­droxy­phen­yl)-4,5-di­hydro-1H-pyrazol-5-yl]-2-meth­oxy­phenol monohydrate

In the title pyrazoline derivative, C16H16N2O3·H2O, the pyrazoline ring has an envelope conformation with the substituted sp2 C atom on the flap. The pyrazoline ring makes angles of 86.73 (12) and 13.44 (12)° with the tris­ubstituted and disubstituted benzene rings, respectively. In the crystal structure, the mol­ecules are connected into chains running in the b-axis direction by O—H⋯N hydrogen bonding. Parallel chains inter­act through N—H⋯O hydrogen bonds and π–π stacking of the tris­ubstituted phenyl rings. The major contribution to the surface contacts are H⋯H contacts (44.3%) as concluded from a Hirshfeld surface analysis.

The crystal structures of two novel polymorphs of bis­(oxonium) ethane-1,2-di­sulfonate

Two novel crystal forms of bis­(oxonium) ethane-1,2-di­sulfonate, 2H3O−·C2H4O6S22−, are reported. Polymorph II has monoclinic (P21/n) symmetry, while the symmetry of form III is triclinic (Poverline{1}). Both structures display extensive networks of O—H⋯O hydrogen bonds. While this network in Form II is similar to that observed for the previously reported Form I [Mootz & Wunderlich (1970). Acta Cryst. B26, 1820–1825; Sartori et al. (1994). Z. Naturforsch. 49, 1467–1472] and extends in all directions, in Form III it differs significantly, forming layers parallel to the ab plane. The sulfonate mol­ecule in all three forms adopts a nearly identical geometry. The other observed differences between the forms, apart from the hydrogen-bonding network, are observed in the crystal density and packing index.

Crystal structure of benzyl N'-[(1E,4E)-1,5-bis­(4-meth­oxy­phen­yl)penta-1,4-dien-3-yl­idene]hydrazine-1-carbodi­thio­ate

In the title hydrazinecarbodi­thio­ate derivative, C27H26N2O2S2, the asymmetric unit is comprised of four mol­ecules (Z = 8 and Z' = 4). The 4-meth­oxy­phenyl rings are slightly twisted away from their attached olefinic double bonds [torsion angles = 5.9 (4)–19.6 (4)°]. The azomethine double bond has an s-trans configuration relative to one of the C=C bonds and an s-cis configuration relative to the other [C=C—C= N = 147.4 (6)–175.7 (2) and 15.3 (3)–37.4 (7)°, respectively]. The torsion angles between the azomethine C=N double bond and hydrazine-1-carbodi­thio­ate moiety indicate only small deviations from planarity, with torsion angles ranging from 0.9 (3) to 6.9 (3)° and from 174.9 (3) to 179.7 (2)°, respectively. The benzyl ring and the methyl­enesulfanyl moiety are almost perpendicular to each other, as indicated by their torsion angles [range 93.7 (3)–114.6 (2)°]. In the crystal, mol­ecules are linked by C—H⋯O, N—H⋯S and C—H⋯π(ring) hydrogen-bonding inter­actions into a three-dimensional network. Structural details of related benzyl hydrazine-1-carbodi­thio­ate are surveyed and compared with those of the title compound.

Crystal structure, DFT and Hirshfeld surface analysis of 2-amino-4-(2-chloro­phen­yl)-7-hy­droxy-4H-benzo[1,2-b]pyran-3-carbo­nitrile

The benzo­pyran ring of the title com­pound, C16H11ClN2O2, is planar [maximum deviation = 0.079 (2) Å] and is almost perpendicular to the chloro­phenyl ring [dihedral angle = 86.85 (6)°]. In the crystal, N—H⋯O, O—H⋯N, C—H⋯O and C—H⋯Cl hydrogen bonds form inter- and intra­molecular inter­actions. The DFT/B3LYP/6-311G(d,p) method was used to determine the HOMO–LUMO energy levels. The mol­ecular electrostatic potential surfaces were investigated by Hirshfeld surface analysis and two-dimensional fingerprint plots were used to analyse the inter­molecular inter­actions in the mol­ecule.

High-pressure synthesis and crystal structure of SrGa4As4

Strontium tetra­gallate(II,III) tetra­arsenide, SrGa4As4, was synthesized in a Walker-type multianvil apparatus under high-pressure/high-temperature conditions of 8 GPa and 1573 K. The com­pound crystallizes in a new structure type (P3221, Z = 3) as a three-dimensional (3D) framework of corner-sharing SrAs8 quadratic anti­prisms with strontium situated on a twofold rotation axis (Wyckoff position 3b). This arrangement is surrounded by a 3D framework which can be described as alternately stacked layers of either condensed GaIIIAs4 tetra­hedra or honeycomb-like layers built up from distorted ethane-like GaII2As6 units com­prising Ga—Ga bonds.

Crystal structure, Hirshfeld surface analysis and inter­action energy and DFT studies of (2Z)-4-benzyl-2-(2,4-di­chloro­benzyl­idene)-2H-1,4-benzo­thia­zin-3(4H)-one

The title compound, C22H15Cl2NOS, contains 1,4-benzo­thia­zine and 2,4-di­­chloro­benzyl­idene units, where the di­hydro­thia­zine ring adopts a screw-boat conformation. In the crystal, inter­molecular C—HBnz⋯OThz (Bnz = benzene and Thz = thia­zine) hydrogen bonds form corrugated chains extending along the b-axis direction which are connected into layers parallel to the bc plane by inter­molecular C—HMethy⋯SThz (Methy = methyl­ene) hydrogen bonds, en­closing R44(22) ring motifs. Offset π-stacking inter­actions between 2,4-di­­chloro­phenyl rings [centroid–centroid = 3.7701 (8) Å] and π-inter­actions which are associated by C—HBnz⋯π(ring) and C—HDchlphy⋯π(ring) (Dchlphy = 2,4-di­chloro­phen­yl) inter­actions may be effective in the stabilization of the crystal structure. The Hirshfeld surface analysis of the crystal structure indicates that the most important contributions for the crystal packing are from H⋯H (29.1%), H⋯C/C⋯H (27.5%), H⋯Cl/Cl⋯H (20.6%) and O⋯H/H⋯O (7.0%) inter­actions. Hydrogen-bonding and van der Waals inter­actions are the dominant inter­actions in the crystal packing. Computational chemistry indicates that in the crystal, the C—HBnz⋯OThz and C—HMethy⋯SThz hydrogen-bond energies are 55.0 and 27.1 kJ mol−1, respectively. Density functional theory (DFT) optimized structures at the B3LYP/6-311G(d,p) level are compared with the experimentally determined mol­ecular structure in the solid state. The HOMO–LUMO behaviour was elucidated to determine the energy gap.

Crystal structure and luminescence properties of 2-[(2',6'-dimeth­oxy-2,3'-bipyridin-6-yl)­oxy]-9-(pyridin-2-yl)-9H-carbazole

In the title com­pound, C29H22N4O3, the carbazole system forms a dihedral angle of 68.45 (3)° with the mean plane of the bi­pyridine ring system. The bi­pyridine ring system, with two meth­oxy substituents, is approximately planar (r.m.s. deviation = 0.0670 Å), with a dihedral angle of 7.91 (13)° between the planes of the two pyridine rings. Intra­molecular C—H⋯O/N hydrogen bonds may promote the planarity of the bipyridyl ring system. In the pyridyl-substituted carbazole fragment, the pyridine ring is tilted by 56.65 (4)° with respect to the mean plane of the carbazole system (r.m.s. deviation = 0.0191 Å). In the crystal, adjacent mol­ecules are connected via C—H⋯O/N hydrogen bonds and C—H⋯π inter­actions, resulting in the formation of a three-dimensional (3D) supra­molecular network. In addition, the 3D structure contains inter­molecular π–π stacking inter­actions, with centroid–centroid distances of 3.5634 (12) Å between pyridine rings. The title com­pound exhibits a high energy gap (3.48 eV) and triplet energy (2.64 eV), indicating that it could be a suitable host material in organic light-emitting diode (OLED) applications.

Crystal structures and Hirshfeld surface analyses of 4-benzyl-6-phenyl-4,5-di­hydro­pyridazin-3(2H)-one and methyl 2-[5-(2,6-di­chloro­benz­yl)-6-oxo-3-phenyl-1,4,5,6-tetra­hydropyridazin-1-yl]acetate

The asymmetric units of the title compounds both contain one nonplanar mol­ecule. In 4-benzyl-6-phenyl-4,5-di­hydro­pyridazin-3(2H)-one, C17H14N2O, (I), the phenyl and pyridazine rings are twisted with respect to each other, making a dihedral angle of 46.69 (9)°; the phenyl ring of the benzyl group is nearly perpendicular to the plane of the pyridazine ring, the dihedral angle being 78.31 (10)°. In methyl 2-[5-(2,6-di­chloro­benz­yl)-6-oxo-3-phenyl-1,4,5,6-tetra­hydropyridazin-1-yl]acetate, C20H16Cl2N2O3, (II), the phenyl and pyridazine rings are twisted with respect to each other, making a dihedral angle of 21.76 (18)°, whereas the phenyl ring of the di­chloro­benzyl group is inclined to the pyridazine ring by 79.61 (19)°. In the crystal structure of (I), pairs of N—H⋯O hydrogen bonds link the mol­ecules into inversion dimers with an R22(8) ring motif. In the crystal structure of (II), C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds generate dimers with R12(7), R22(16) and R22(18) ring motifs. The Hirshfeld surface analyses of compound (I) suggests that the most significant contributions to the crystal packing are by H⋯H (48.2%), C⋯H/H⋯C (29.9%) and O⋯H/H⋯O (8.9%) contacts. For compound (II), H⋯H (34.4%), C⋯H/H⋯C (21.3%) and O⋯H/H⋯O (16.5%) inter­actions are the most important contributions.

Crystal structure, Hirshfeld surface analysis and inter­action energy and DFT studies of methyl 4-[3,6-bis­(pyridin-2-yl)pyridazin-4-yl]benzoate

The title com­pound, C22H16N4O2, contains two pyridine rings and one meth­oxy­carbonyl­phenyl group attached to a pyridazine ring which deviates very slightly from planarity. In the crystal, ribbons consisting of inversion-related chains of mol­ecules extending along the a-axis direction are formed by C—HMthy⋯OCarbx (Mthy = methyl and Carbx = carboxyl­ate) hydrogen bonds. The ribbons are connected into layers parallel to the bc plane by C—HBnz⋯π(ring) (Bnz = benzene) inter­actions. The Hirshfeld surface analysis of the crystal structure indicates that the most important contributions for the crystal packing are from H⋯H (39.7%), H⋯C/C⋯H (27.5%), H⋯N/N⋯H (15.5%) and O⋯H/H⋯O (11.1%) inter­actions. Hydrogen-bonding and van der Waals inter­actions are the dominant inter­actions in the crystal packing. Computational chemistry indicates that in the crystal, C—HMthy⋯OCarbx hydrogen-bond energies are 62.0 and 34.3 kJ mol−1, respectively. Density functional theory (DFT) optimized structures at the B3LYP/6-311G(d,p) level are com­pared with the experimentally determined mol­ecular structure in the solid state. The HOMO–LUMO behaviour was elucidated to determine the energy gap.

Bis[2-(4,5-diphenyl-1H-imidazol-2-yl)-4-nitrophenolato]copper(II) dihydrate: crystal structure and Hirshfeld surface analysis

The crystal and mol­ecular structures of the title CuII complex, isolated as a dihydrate, [Cu(C21H14N3O3)2]·2H2O, reveals a highly distorted coordination geometry inter­mediate between square-planar and tetra­hedral defined by an N2O2 donor set derived from two mono-anionic bidentate ligands. Furthermore, each six-membered chelate ring adopts an envelope conformation with the Cu atom being the flap. In the crystal, imidazolyl-amine-N—H⋯O(water), water-O—H⋯O(coordinated, nitro and water), phenyl-C—H⋯O(nitro) and π(imidazol­yl)–π(nitro­benzene) [inter-centroid distances = 3.7452 (14) and 3.6647 (13) Å] contacts link the components into a supra­molecular layer lying parallel to (101). The connections between layers forming a three-dimensional architecture are of the types nitro­benzene-C—H⋯O(nitro) and phenyl-C—H⋯π(phen­yl). The distorted coordination geometry for the CuII atom is highlighted in an analysis of the Hirshfeld surface calculated for the metal centre alone. The significance of the inter­molecular contacts is also revealed in a study of the calculated Hirshfeld surfaces; the dominant contacts in the crystal are H⋯H (41.0%), O⋯H/H⋯O (27.1%) and C⋯H/H⋯C (19.6%).

Crystal structure, synthesis and thermal properties of bis­(aceto­nitrile-κN)bis­(4-benzoyl­pyridine-κN)bis­(iso­thio­cyanato-κN)nickel(II)

In the crystal structure of the title com­pound, [Ni(NCS)2(CH3CN)2(C12H9NO)2] or Ni(NCS)2(4-benzoyl­pyridine)2(aceto­nitrile)2, the NiII ions are octa­hedrally coordinated by the N atoms of two thio­cyanate anions, two 4-benzoyl­pyridine ligands and two aceto­nitrile mol­ecules into discrete com­plexes that are located on centres of inversion. In the crystal, the discrete com­plexes are linked by centrosymmetric pairs of weak C—H⋯S hydrogen bonds into chains. Thermogravimetric measurements prove that, upon heating, the title com­plex loses the two aceto­nitrile ligands and transforms into a new crystalline modification of the chain com­pound [Ni(NCS)2(4-benzoyl­pyridine)2], which is different from that of the corresponding CoII, NiII and CdII coordination polymers reported in the literature. IR spectroscopic investigations indicate the presence of bridging thio­cyanate anions but the powder pattern cannot be indexed and, therefore, this structure is unknown.

Crystal structures of two solvated 2-aryl-3-phenyl-2,3-di­hydro-4H-pyrido[3,2-e][1,3]thia­zin-4-ones

The synthesis and crystal structures of 2-(4-fluoro­phen­yl)-3-phenyl-2,3-di­hydro-4H-pyrido[3,2-e][1,3]thia­zin-4-one toluene hemisolvate (1), C19H13FN2OS·0.5C7H8, and 2-(4-nitro­phen­yl)-3-phenyl-2,3-di­hydro-4H-pyrido[3,2-e][1,3]thia­zin-4-one iso­propanol 0.25-solvate 0.0625-hydrate (2), C19H13N3O3S·0.25C3H7O·0.0625H2O, are reported. Both are racemic mixtures (centrosymmetric crystal structures) of the individual com­pounds and incorporate solvent mol­ecules in their structures. Compound 2 has four thia­zine mol­ecules in the asymmetric unit. All the thia­zine rings in this study show an envelope pucker, with the C atom bearing the substituted phenyl ring displaced from the other atoms. The phenyl and aryl rings in each of the mol­ecules are roughly orthogonal to each other, with dihedral angles of about 75°. The extended structures of 1 and 2 are consolidated by C—H⋯O and C—H⋯N(π), as well as T-type (C—H⋯π) inter­actions. Parallel aromatic ring inter­actions (π–π stacking) are observed only in 2.

Crystal structures and hydrogen-bonding analysis of a series of solvated ammonium salts of molybdenum(II) chloride clusters

Charge-assisted hydrogen bonding plays a significant role in the crystal structures of solvates of ionic com­pounds, especially when the cation or cations are primary ammonium salts. We report the crystal structures of four ammonium salts of molybdenum halide cluster solvates where we observe significant hydrogen bonding between the solvent molecules and cations. The crystal structures of bis­(anilinium) octa-μ3-chlorido-hexa­chlorido-octa­hedro-hexa­molybdate N,N-di­­methyl­formamide tetra­solvate, (C6H8N)2[Mo6Cl8Cl6]·4C3H7NO, (I), p-phenyl­enedi­ammonium octa-μ3-chlorido-hexa­chlorido-octa­hedro-hexa­mol­yb­date N,N-di­methyl­formamide hexa­solvate, (C6H10N2)[Mo6Cl8Cl6]·6C3H7NO, (II), N,N'-(1,4-phenyl­ene)bis­(propan-2-iminium) octa-μ3-chlorido-hexa­chlo­rido-octa­hedro-hexa­molybdate acetone tris­olvate, (C12H18N2)[Mo6Cl8Cl6]·3C3H6O, (III), and 1,1'-dimethyl-4,4'-bipyridinium octa-μ3-chlo­rido-hexa­chlorido-octa­hedro-hexa­molybdate N,N-di­methyl­formamide tetra­solvate, (C12H14N2)[Mo6Cl8Cl6]·4C3H7NO, (IV), are reported and described. In (I), the anilinium cations and N,N-di­methyl­formamide (DMF) solvent mol­ecules form a cyclic R42(8) hydrogen-bonded motif centered on a crystallographic inversion center with an additional DMF mol­ecule forming a D(2) inter­action. The p-phenyl­enedi­ammonium cation in (II) forms three D(2) inter­actions between the three N—H bonds and three independent N,N-di­methyl­formamide mol­ecules. The dication in (III) is a protonated Schiff base solvated by acetone mol­ecules. Compound (IV) contains a methyl viologen dication with N,N-di­methyl­formamide mol­ecules forming close contacts with both aromatic and methyl H atoms.

Crystal structure of a 1:1 cocrystal of nicotinamide with 2-chloro-5-nitro­benzoic acid

In the title 1:1 cocrystal, C7H4ClNO4·C6H6N2O, nicotinamide (NIC) and 2-chloro-5-nitro­benzoic acid (CNBA) cocrystallize with one mol­ecule each of NIC and CNBA in the asymmetric unit. In this structure, CNBA and NIC form hydrogen bonds through O—H⋯N, N—H⋯O and C—H⋯O inter­actions along with N—H⋯O dimer hydrogen bonds of NIC. Further additional weak π–π inter­actions stabilize the mol­ecular assembly of this cocrystal.

Crystal structures of the two isomeric hydrogen-bonded cocrystals 2-chloro-4-nitro­benzoic acid–5-nitro­quinoline (1/1) and 5-chloro-2-nitro­benzoic acid–5-nitro­quinoline (1/1)

The structures of two isomeric com­pounds of 5-nitro­quinoline with chloro- and nitro-substituted benzoic acid, namely, 2-chloro-4-nitro­benzoic acid–5-nitro­quinoline (1/1), (I), and 5-chloro-2-nitro­benzoic acid–5-nitro­quinoline (1/1), (II), both C7H4ClNO4·C9H6N2O2, have been determined at 190 K. In each com­pound, the acid and base mol­ecules are held together by an O—H⋯N hydrogen bond. In the crystal of (I), the hydrogen-bonded acid–base units are linked by a C—H⋯O hydrogen bond, forming a tape structure along [1overline{2}0]. The tapes are stacked into a layer parallel to the ab plane via N—O⋯π inter­actions between the nitro group of the base mol­ecule and the quinoline ring system. The layers are further linked by other C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds, forming a three-dimensional network. In the crystal of (II), the hydrogen-bonded acid–base units are linked into a wide ribbon structure running along [1overline{1}0] via C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds. The ribbons are further linked via another C—H⋯O hydrogen bond, forming a layer parallel to (110). Weak π–π inter­actions [centroid–centroid distances of 3.7080 (10) and 3.7543 (9) Å] are observed between the quinoline ring systems of adjacent layers. Hirshfeld surfaces for the 5-nitro­quinoline mol­ecules of the two com­pounds mapped over shape index and dnorm were generated to visualize the weak inter­molecular inter­actions.

Crystal structure, Hirshfeld surface analysis and PIXEL calculations of a 1:1 epimeric mixture of 3-[(4-nitro­benzyl­idene)amino]-2(R,S)-(4-nitro­phenyl)-5(S)-(propan-2-yl)imidazolidin-4-one

A 1:1 epimeric mixture of 3-[(4-nitro­benzyl­idene)amino]-2(R,S)-(4-nitro­phen­yl)-5(S)-(propan-2-yl)imidazolidin-4-one, C19H19N5O5, was isolated from a reaction mixture of 2(S)-amino-3-methyl-1-oxo­butane­hydrazine and 4-nitro­benz­alde­hyde in ethanol. The product was derived from an initial reaction of 2(S)-amino-3-methyl-1-oxo­butane­hydrazine at its hydrazine group to provide a 4-nitro­benzyl­idene derivative, followed by a cyclization reaction with another mol­ecule of 4-nitro­benzaldehyde to form the chiral five-membered imidazolidin-4-one ring. The formation of the five-membered imidazolidin-4-one ring occurred with retention of the configuration at the 5-position, but with racemization at the 2-position. In the crystal, N—H⋯O(nitro) hydrogen bonds, weak C—H⋯O(carbon­yl) and C—H⋯O(nitro) hydrogen bonds, as well as C—H⋯π, N—H⋯π and π–π inter­actions, are present. These combine to generate a three-dimensional array. Hirshfeld surface analysis and PIXEL calculations are also reported.

Crystal structure and Hirshfeld surface analysis of 2-(4-nitro­phen­yl)-2-oxoethyl benzoate

The title com­pound, C15H11NO5, is relatively planar, with the planes of the two aromatic rings being inclined to each other by 3.09 (5)°. In the crystal, mol­ecules are linked by a pair of C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds, forming inversion dimers, which enclose an R22(16) ring motif. The dimers are linked by a further pair of C—H⋯O hydrogen-bonds forming ribbons enclosing R44(26) ring motifs. The ribbons are linked by offset π–π inter­actions [centroid–centroid distances = 3.6754 (6)–3.7519 (6) Å] to form layers parallel to the ac plane. Through Hirshfeld surface analyses, the dnorm surfaces, electrostatic potential and two-dimensional fingerprint (FP) plots were examined to verify the contributions of the different inter­molecular contacts within the supra­molecular structure. The shape-index surface shows that two sides of the mol­ecule are involved with the same contacts in neighbouring mol­ecules, and the curvedness plot shows flat surface patches that are characteristic of planar stacking.

Crystal structures of two dimeric nickel di­phenyl­acetate com­plexes

In the crystal structures of the title com­pounds, namely μ-aqua-κ2O:O-di-μ-di­phenyl­acetato-κ4O:O'-bis­[(di­phenyl­acetato-κO)bis­(pyridine-κN)nickel(II)], [Ni2(C14H11O2)4(C5H5N)4(H2O)] (1) and μ-aqua-κ2O:O-di-μ-di­phenyl­acetato-κ4O:O'-bis­[(2,2'-bi­pyridine-κ2N,N')(di­phenyl­acetato-κO)nickel(II)]–aceto­nitrile–di­phenyl­acetic acid (1/2.5/1), [Ni2(C14H11O2)4(C10H8N2)2(H2O)]·2.5CH3CN·C14H12O2 (2), the com­plex units are stabilized by a variety of intra- and inter­molecular hydrogen bonds, as well as C—H⋯π and π–π contacts between the aromatic systems of the pyridine, dipyridyl and di­phenyl­acetate ligands. Despite the fact that the di­phenyl­acetate ligand is sterically bulky, this does not inter­fere with the formation of the described aqua-bridged dimeric core, even with a 2,2'-bi­pyridine ligand, which has a strong chelating effect.

Crystal structure and Hirshfeld surface analysis of (2E,2'E)-1,1'-[seleno­bis­(4,1-phenyl­ene)]bis­[3-(4-chloro­phen­yl)prop-2-en-1-one]

In the title com­pound, C30H20Cl2O2Se, the C—Se—C angle is 99.0 (2)°, with the dihedral angle between the planes of the attached benzene rings being 79.1 (3)°. The average endocyclic angles (Se—C—C) facing the Se atom are 122.1 (5) and 122.2 (5)°. The Se atom is essentially coplanar with the attached benzene rings, deviating by 0.075 (1) and 0.091 (1) Å. In the two phenyl­ene(4-chloro­phen­yl)prop-2-en-1-one units, the benzene rings are inclined to each other by 44.6 (3) and 7.8 (3)°. In the crystal, the mol­ecules stack up the a axis, forming layers parallel to the ac plane. There are no significant classical inter­molecular inter­actions present. Hirshfeld surface analysis, two-dimensional fingerprint plots and the mol­ecular electrostatic potential surface were used to analyse the crystal packing. The Hirshfeld surface analysis suggests that the most significant contributions to the crystal packing are by C⋯H/H⋯C contacts (17.7%).

Crystal structure and Hirshfeld surface analysis of (E)-6-(4-hy­droxy-3-meth­oxy­styr­yl)-4,5-di­hydro­pyridazin-3(2H)-one

In the title com­pound, C13H14N2O3, the dihydropyridazine ring (r.m.s. deviation = 0.166 Å) has a screw-boat conformation. The dihedral angle between its mean plane and the benzene ring is 0.77 (12)°. In the crystal, inter­molecular O—H⋯O hydrogen bonds generate C(5) chains and N—H⋯O hydrogen bonds produce R22(8) motifs. These types of inter­actions lead to the formation of layers parallel to (12overline{1}). The three-dimensional network is achieved by C—H⋯O inter­actions, including R24(8) motifs. Inter­molecular inter­actions were additionally investigated using Hirshfeld surface analysis and two-dimensional fingerprint plots. The most significant contributions to the crystal packing are by H⋯H (43.3%), H⋯C/C⋯H (19.3%), H⋯O/H⋯O (22.6%), C⋯N/N⋯C (3.0%) and H⋯N/N⋯H (5.8%) contacts. C—H⋯π inter­actions and aromatic π–π stacking inter­actions are not observed.

Two thio­chromene com­pounds containing Br and F atoms, namely 2-(2-bromo-5-fluoro­phen­yl)-8-eth­oxy-3-nitro-2H-thio­chromene (C17H13BrFNO3S, A) and 2-(2-bromo-5-fluoro­phen­yl)-7-meth­oxy-3-nitro-2H-thio­chromene (C16H11BrFNO3S, B), were prepared via the condensation reaction between 2-mer­capto­benzaldehyde and nitro­styrene derivatives. In both com­pounds, the thio­chromene plane is almost perpendicular to the phenyl ring. In the structure of A, mol­ecules are assembled via π–π stacking and C—H⋯O and C—F⋯π inter­actions. In the crystal packing of B, mol­ecules are linked by C—H⋯F, C—H⋯O, C—H⋯π and π–π inter­actions.

Crystal structure, Hirshfeld surface analysis and DFT studies of ethyl 2-{4-[(2-eth­oxy-2-oxoeth­yl)(phen­yl)carbamo­yl]-2-oxo-1,2-di­hydro­quinolin-1-yl}acetate

The title com­pound, C24H24N2O6, consists of ethyl 2-(1,2,3,4-tetra­hydro-2-oxo­quinolin-1-yl)acetate and 4-[(2-eth­oxy-2-oxoeth­yl)(phen­yl)carbomoyl] units, where the oxo­quinoline unit is almost planar and the acetate substituent is nearly perpendicular to its mean plane. In the crystal, C—HOxqn⋯OEthx and C—HPh­yl⋯OCarbx (Oxqn = oxoquinolin, Ethx = eth­oxy, Phyl = phenyl and Carbx = carboxyl­ate) weak hydrogen bonds link the mol­ecules into a three-dimensional network sturucture. A π–π inter­action between the constituent rings of the oxo­quinoline unit, with a centroid–centroid distance of 3.675 (1) Å may further stabilize the structure. Both terminal ethyl groups are disordered over two sets of sites. The ratios of the refined occupanies are 0.821 (8):0.179 (8) and 0.651 (18):0.349 (18). The Hirshfeld surface analysis of the crystal structure indicates that the most important contributions for the crystal packing are from H⋯H (53.9%), H⋯O/O⋯H (28.5%) and H⋯C/C⋯H (11.8%) inter­actions. Weak inter­molecular hydrogen-bond inter­actions and van der Waals inter­actions are the dominant inter­actions in the crystal packing. Density functional theory (DFT) geometric optimized structures at the B3LYP/6-311G(d,p) level are com­pared with the experimentally determined mol­ecular structure in the solid state. The HOMO–LUMO mol­ecular orbital behaviour was elucidated to determine the energy gap.

Crystal structure and Hirshfeld surface analysis of 2-(4-nitro­phen­yl)-2-oxoethyl picolinate

2-(4-Nitro­phen­yl)-2-oxoethyl picolinate, C14H10N2O5, was synthesized under mild conditions. The chemical and mol­ecular structures were confirmed by single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. The mol­ecules are linked by inversion into centrosymmetric dimers via weak inter­molecular C—H⋯O inter­actions, forming R22(10) ring motifs, and further strengthened by weak π–π inter­actions. Hirshfeld surface analyses, the dnorm surfaces, electrostatic potential and two-dimensional fingerprint (FP) plots were used to verify the contributions of the different inter­molecular inter­actions within the supra­molecular structure. The shape-index surface shows that two sides of the mol­ecules are involved with the same contacts in neighbouring mol­ecules and curvedness plots show flat surface patches that are characteristic of planar stacking.

Crystal structure and photoluminescence properties of catena-poly[[bis­(1-benzyl-1H-imidazole-κN3)cadmium(II)]-di-μ-azido-κ4N1:N3]

The new title one-dimensional CdII coordination polymer, [Cd(C10H10N2)2(μ1,3-N3)2]n, has been synthesized and structurally characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The asymmetric unit consists of a CdII ion, one azide and one 1-benzyl­imidazole (bzi) ligand. The CdII ion is located on an inversion centre and is surrounded in a distorted octa­hedral coordination sphere by six N atoms from four symmetry-related azide ligands and two symmetry-related bzi ligands. The CdII ions are linked by double azide bridging ligands within a μ1,3-N3 end-to-end (EE) coordination mode, leading to a one-dimensional linear structure extending parallel to [100]. The supra­molecular framework is stabilized by the presence of weak C—H⋯N inter­actions, π–π stacking [centroid-to-centroid distance of 3.832 (2) Å] and C—H⋯π inter­actions between neighbouring chains.

Synthesis and crystal structure of (E)-2-({2-[aza­niumyl­idene(methyl­sulfan­yl)meth­yl]hydrazinyl­idene}meth­yl)benzene-1,4-diol hydrogen sulfate

The title mol­ecular salt, C9H12N3O2S+·HSO4−, was obtained through the protonation of the azomethine N atom in a sulfuric acid medium. The crystal com­prises two entities, a thio­semicarbazide cation and a hydrogen sulfate anion. The cation is essentially planar and is further stabilized by a strong intra­molecular O—H⋯N hydrogen bond. In the crystal, a three-dimensional network is established through O—H⋯O and N—H⋯O hydrogen bonds. A weak intermolecular C—H⋯O hydrogen bond is also observed. The hydrogen sulfate anion exhibits disorder over two sets of sites and was modelled with refined occupancies of 0.501 (6) and 0.499 (6).

Different packing motifs mediated by weak inter­actions and polymorphism in the crystal structures of five 2-(benzyl­idene)benzosuberone derivatives

The syntheses and crystal structures of five 2-benzyl­idene-1-benzosuberone [1-benzosuberone is 6,7,8,9-tetra­hydro-5H-benzo[7]annulen-5-one] derivatives, viz. 2-(4-meth­oxy­benzyl­idene)-1-benzosuberone, C19H18O2, (I), 2-(4-eth­oxy­benzyl­idene)-1-benzosuberone, C20H20O2, (II), 2-(4-benzyl­benzyl­idene)-1-benzosuberone, C25H22O2, (III), 2-(4-chloro­benzyl­idene)-1-benzosuberone, C18H15ClO, (IV) and 2-(4-cyano­benzyl­idene)-1-benzosuberone, C19H15NO, (V), are described. The conformations of the benzosuberone fused six- plus seven-membered ring fragments are very similar in each case, but the dihedral angles between the fused benzene ring and the pendant benzene ring differ somewhat, with values of 23.79 (3) for (I), 24.60 (4) for (II), 33.72 (4) for (III), 29.93 (8) for (IV) and 21.81 (7)° for (V). Key features of the packing include pairwise C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds for (II) and (IV), and pairwise C—H⋯N hydrogen bonds for (V), which generate inversion dimers in each case. The packing for (I) and (III) feature C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds, which lead to [010] and [100] chains, respectively. Weak C—H⋯π inter­actions consolidate the structures and weak aromatic π–π stacking is seen in (II) [centroid–centroid separation = 3.8414 (7) Å] and (III) [3.9475 (7) Å]. A polymorph of (I) crystallized from a different solvent has been reported previously [Dimmock et al. (1999) J. Med. Chem. 42, 1358–1366] in the same space group but with a packing motif based on inversion dimers resembling that seen in (IV) in the present study. The Hirshfeld surfaces and fingerprint plots for (I) and its polymorph are com­pared and structural features of the 2-benzyl­idene-1-benzosuberone family of phases are surveyed.

In the title com­plex, [Cu(C18H12F6N2O4)]·0.5C6H6O2, the CuII ion has a square-planar coordination geometry, being ligated by two N and two O atoms of the tetra­dentate open-chain Schiff base ligand 6,6'-{(1E,1'E)-[ethane-1,2-diylbis(aza­nylyl­idene)]bis­(methanylyl­idene)}bis­[2-(tri­fluoro­meth­oxy)phenol]. The crystal packing is stabilized by intra­molecular O—H⋯O and inter­molecular C—H⋯F, C—H⋯O and C—H⋯π hydrogen bonds. In addition, weak π–π inter­actions form a three-dimensional structure. Hirshfeld surface analysis and two-dimensional fingerprint plots were performed and created to analyze the inter­molecular inter­actions present in the crystal, indicating that the most important contributions for the crystal packing are from F⋯H/H⋯F (25.7%), H⋯H (23.5%) and C⋯H/H⋯C (12.6%) inter­actions.

Crystal structure and Hirshfeld surface analysis of 2-(4-nitro­phen­yl)-2-oxoethyl 2-chloro­benzoate

The title compound, C15H10ClNO5, is relatively planar with the two aromatic rings being inclined to each other by 3.56 (11)°. The central —C(=O)—C–O—C(=O)— bridge is slightly twisted, with a C—C—O—C torsion angle of 164.95 (16)°. In the crystal, mol­ecules are linked by C—H⋯O and C—H⋯Cl hydrogen bonds, forming layers parallel to the (101) plane. The layers are linked by a further C—H⋯O hydrogen bond, forming a three-dimensional supra­molecular structure. There are a number of offset π–π inter­actions present between the layers [inter­centroid distances vary from 3.8264 (15) to 3.9775 (14) Å]. Hirshfeld surface analyses, the dnorm surfaces, electrostatic potential and two-dimensional fingerprint plots were examined to verify the contributions of the different inter­molecular contacts within the supra­molecular structure. The shape-index surface shows that two sides of the mol­ecule are involved in the same contacts with neighbouring mol­ecules, and the curvedness plot shows flat surface patches that are characteristic of planar stacking.

The `super acid' BF3H2O stabilized by 1,4-dioxane: new preparative aspects and the crystal structure of BF3H2O·C4H8O2

Highly Brønsted-acidic boron trifluoride monohydrate, a widely used `super acid-catalyst', is a colourless fuming liquid that releases BF3 at room temperature. Com­pared to the liquid com­ponents, i.e. boron trifluoride monohydrate and 1,4-dioxane, their 1:1 adduct, BF3H2O·C4H8O2, is a solid with pronounced thermal stability (m.p. 401–403 K). The crystal structure of the long-time-stable easy-to-handle and weighable com­pound is reported along with new preparative aspects and the results of 1H, 11B, 13C and 19F spectroscopic investigations, particularly documenting its high Brønsted acidity in aceto­nitrile solution. The remarkable stability of solid BF3H2O·C4H8O2 is attributed to the chain structure established by O—H⋯O hydrogen bonds of exceptional strength {O2⋯H1—O1 [O⋯O = 2.534 (3) Å] and O1—H1⋯O3i [2.539 (3) Å] in the concatenating unit >O2⋯H1—O1—H2⋯O3i<}, taking into account the mol­ecular (non-ionic) character of the structural moieties. Indirectly, this structural feature documents the outstanding acidification of the H2O mol­ecule bound to BF3 and reflects the super acid nature of BF3H2O. In detail, the C22(7) zigzag chain system of hydrogen bonding in the title structure is characterized by the double hydrogen-bond donor and double (κO,κO') hydrogen-bond acceptor functionality of the aqua ligand and dioxane molecule, respectively, the almost equal strength of both hydrogen bonds, the approximatety linear arrangement of the dioxane O atoms and the two neighbouring water O atoms. Furthermore, the approximately planar arrangement of B, F and O atoms in sheets perpendicular to the c axis of the ortho­rhom­bic unit cell is a characteristic structural feature.

Crystal structure of benzo[h]quinoline-3-carbox­amide

The title com­pound, C14H10N2O, crystallizes in the monoclinic space group P21/c with four mol­ecules in the unit cell. All 17 non-H atoms of one mol­ecule lie essentially in one plane. In the unit cell, two pairs of mol­ecules are exactly coplanar, while the angle between these two orientations is close to perfectly perpendicular at 87.64 (6)°. In the crystal, mol­ecules adopt a 50:50 crisscross arrangement, which is held together by two nonclassical and two classical inter­molecular hydrogen bonds. The hydrogen-bonding network together with off-centre π–π stacking inter­actions between the pyridine and outermost benzene rings, stack the mol­ecules along the b-axis direction.

Crystal structure of pyridinium tetra­iso­thio­cyanato­dipyridine­chromium(III) pyridine monosolvate

In the crystal structure of the title compound, (C5H6N)[Cr(NCS)4(C5H5N)2]·C5H5N, the CrIII ions are octa­hedrally coordinated by four N-bonding thio­cyanate anions and two pyridine ligands into discrete negatively charged complexes, with the CrIII ion, as well as the two pyridine ligands, located on crystallographic mirror planes. The mean planes of the two pyridine ligands are rotated with respect to each other by 90°. Charge balance is achieved by one protonated pyridine mol­ecule that is hydrogen bonded to one additional pyridine solvent mol­ecule, with both located on crystallographic mirror planes and again rotated by exactly 90°. The pyridinium H atom was refined as disordered between both pyridine N atoms in a 70:30 ratio, leading to a linear N—H⋯N hydrogen bond. In the crystal, discrete complexes are linked by weak C—H⋯S hydrogen bonds into chains that are connected by additional C—H⋯S hydrogen bonding via the pyridinium cations and solvent mol­ecules into layers and finally into a three-dimensional network.

Crystal structure of catena-poly[[[(2-eth­oxy­pyrazine-κN)copper(I)]-di-μ2-cyanido] [copper(I)-μ2-cyanido]]

In the asymmetric unit of the title coordination compound, {[Cu(CN)(C4H3OC2H5N2)][Cu(CN)]}n, there are two Cu atoms with different coordination environments. One CuI ion is coordinated in a triangular coordination geometry by the N atom of the 2-eth­oxy­pyrazine mol­ecule and by two bridging cyanide ligands, equally disordered over two sites exchanging C and N atoms, thus forming polymeric chains parallel to the c axis. The other Cu atom is connected to two bridging cyanide groups disordered over two sites with an occupancy of 0.5 for each C and N atom, and forming an almost linear polymeric chain parallel to the b axis. In the crystal, the two types of chain, which are orthogonal to each other, are connected by cuprophilic Cu⋯Cu inter­actions [2.7958 (13) Å], forming two-dimensional metal–organic coordination layers parallel to the bc plane. The coordination framework is further stabilized by weak long-range (electrostatic type) C—H⋯π inter­actions between cyano groups and 2-eth­oxy­pyrazine rings.




structure

Synthesis and crystal structure of (E)-1,2-bis­[2-(methyl­sulfan­yl)phen­yl]diazene

The title compound, C14H14N2S2, was obtained by transmetallation of 2,2'-bis­(tri­methyl­stann­yl)azo­benzene with methyl lithium, and subsequent quenching with dimethyl di­sulfide. The asymmetric unit comprises two half-mol­ecules, the other halves being completed by inversion symmetry at the midpoint of the azo group. The two mol­ecules show only slight differences with respect to N=N, S—N and aromatic C=C bonds or angles. Hirshfeld surface analysis reveals that except for one weak H⋯S inter­action, inter­molecular inter­actions are dominated by van der Waals forces only.




structure

Crystal structures of two coordination isomers of copper(II) 4-sulfo­benzoic acid hexa­hydrate and two mixed silver/potassium 4-sulfo­benzoic acid salts

A reaction of copper(II) carbonate and potassium 4-sulfo­benzoic acid in water acidified with hydro­chloric acid yielded two crystalline products. Tetra­aqua­bis­(4-carb­oxy­benzene­sulfonato)­copper(II) dihydrate, [Cu(O3SC6H4CO2H)2(H2O)4]·2H2O, (I), crystallizes in the triclinic space group Poverline{1} with the Cu2+ ions located on centers of inversion. Each copper ion is coordinated to four water mol­ecules in a square plane with two sulfonate O atoms in the apical positions of a Jahn–Teller-distorted octa­hedron. The carboxyl­ate group is protonated and not involved in coordination to the metal ions. The complexes pack so as to create a layered structure with alternating inorganic and organic domains. The packing is reinforced by several O—H⋯O hydrogen bonds involving coordinated and non-coordinated water mol­ecules, the carb­oxy­lic acid group and the sulfonate group. Hexa­aqua­copper(II) 4-carb­oxy­benzene­sulfonate, [Cu(H2O)6](O3SC6H4CO2H)2, (II), also crystallizes in the triclinic space group Poverline{1} with Jahn–Teller-distorted octa­hedral copper(II) aqua complexes on the centers of inversion. As in (I), the carboxyl­ate group on the anion is protonated and the structure consists of alternating layers of inorganic cations and organic anions linked by O—H⋯O hydrogen bonds. A reaction of silver nitrate and potassium 4-sulfo­benzoic acid in water also resulted in two distinct products that have been structurally characterized. An anhydrous silver potassium 4-carb­oxy­benzene­sulfonate salt, [Ag0.69K0.31](O3SC6H4CO2H), (III), crystallizes in the monoclinic space group C2/c. There are two independent metal sites, one fully occupied by silver ions and the other showing a 62% K+/38% Ag+ (fixed) ratio, refined in two slightly different positions. The coordination environments of the metal ions are composed primarily of sulfonate O atoms, with some participation by the non-protonated carboxyl­ate O atoms in the disordered site. As in the copper compounds, the cations and anions cleanly segregate into alternating layers. A hydrated mixed silver potassium 4-carb­oxy­benzene­sulfonate salt dihydrate, [Ag0.20K0.80](O3SC6H4CO2H)·2H2O, (IV), crystallizes in the monoclinic space group P21/c with the Ag+ and K+ ions sharing one unique metal site coordinated by two water mol­ecules and six sulfonate O atoms. The packing in (IV) follows the dominant motif of alternating inorganic and organic layers. The protonated carboxyl­ate groups do not inter­act with the cations directly, but do participate in hydrogen bonds with the coordinated water mol­ecules. (IV) is isostructural with pure potassium 4-sulfo­benzoic acid dihydrate.

Crystal structure and Hirshfeld surface analysis of poly[tris­(μ4-benzene-1,4-di­carboxyl­ato)tetra­kis­(di­methyl­formamide)­trinickel(II)]: a two-dimensional coordination network

The crystal structure of the title compound, [Ni3(C8H4O4)3(C3H7NO)4], is a two-dimensional coordination network formed by trinuclear linear Ni3(tp)3(DMF)4 units (tp = terephthalate = benzene-1,4-di­carboxyl­ate and DMF = di­methyl­formamide) displaying a characteristic coordination mode of acetate groups in polynuclear metal–organic compounds. Individual trinuclear units are connected through tp anions in a triangular network that forms layers. One of the DMF ligands points outwards and provides inter­actions with equivalent planes above and below, leaving the second ligand in a structural void much larger than the DMF mol­ecule, which shows positional disorder. Parallel planes are connected mainly through weak C—H⋯O, H⋯H and H⋯C inter­actions between DMF mol­ecules, as shown by Hirshfeld surface analysis.

The title compound, [Fe(C44H24N8Cl4)(CN)2][K2(C18H36N2O6)2]·2C4H8O was synthesized and characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction as well as FTIR and UV–vis spectroscopy. The central FeII ion is coordinated by four pyrrole N atoms of the porphyrin core and two C atoms of the cyano groups in a slightly distorted octa­hedral coordination environment. The complex mol­ecule crystallizes with two tetra­hydro­furan solvent mol­ecules, one of which was refined as disordered over two sets of sites with refined occupancies of 0.619 (5) and 0.381 (5). It has a distorted porphyrin core with mean absolute core-atom displacements Ca, Cb, Cm and Cav of 0.32 (3), 0.22 (3), 0.56 (2) and 0.37 (14) Å, respectively. The axial Fe—Ccyano bond lengths are 1.991 (2) and 1.988 (2) Å. The average Fe—Np (Np is a porphyrin N atom) bond length is 1.964 (10) Å. One of the O atoms and several C atoms of the 222 moiety [222 = 4,7,13,16,21,24-hexa­oxa-1,10-di­aza­bicyclo­[8.8.8]hexa­cosa­ne] were refined as disordered over two sets of sites with occupancy ratios of 0.739 (6):0.261 (6) and 0.832 (4):0.168 (4). Additional solvent mol­ecules were found to be highly disordered and their contribution to the scattering was removed using the SQUEEZE procedure in PLATON [Spek (2015). Acta Cryst. C71, 9–18], which indicated a solvent cavity of volume 372 Å3 containing approximately 83 electrons. These solvent mol­ecules are not considered in the given chemical formula and other crystal data.

Crystal structure of 1,4-bis­[5-(2-meth­oxy­phen­yl)-2H-tetra­zol-2-yl]butane

The title compound, C20H22N8O2, was synthesized by the coupling reaction of a sodium tetra­zolate salt and di­bromo­butane in a molar ratio of 2:1. The reaction can produce several possible regioisomers and the title compound was separated as the major product. The X-ray crystallographic study confirmed that the title compound crystallizes in the monoclinic P21/c space group and possesses a bridging butyl­ene group that connects two identical phenyl tetra­zole moieties. The butyl­ene group is attached not to the first but the second nitro­gen atoms of both tetra­zole rings. The dihedral angles between the phenyl groups and the adjacent tetra­zolyl rings are 5.32 (6) and 15.37 (7)°. In the crystal, the mol­ecules form centrosymmetric dimers through C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds between a C—H group of the butyl­ene linker and the O atom of a meth­oxy group.

Crystal structure and Hirshfeld surface analysis of a zinc xanthate complex containing the 2,2'-bi­pyridine ligand

In the title compound, (2,2'-bi­pyridine-κ2N,N')bis­(2-meth­oxy­ethyl xanthato-κS)zinc(II), [Zn(C4H7O2S2)2(C10H8N2)], the ZnII ion is coordinated to two N atoms of the 2,2'-bi­pyridine ligand and two S atoms from two 2-meth­oxy­ethyl xanthate ligands. The ZnII ion lies on a crystallographic twofold rotation axis and has distorted tetra­hedral coordination geometry. In the crystal, mol­ecules are linked by weak C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds, forming supramolecular chains propagating along the a-axis direction. Weak intra­molecular C—H⋯S hydrogen bonds are also observed. The inter­molecular contacts in the crystal were further analysed using Hirshfield surface analysis, which indicates that the most significant contacts are H⋯H (36.3%), followed by S⋯H/H⋯S (24.7%), C⋯H/H⋯C (15.1%), O⋯H/H⋯O (14.4%), N⋯H/H⋯N (4.1%) and C⋯C (2.9%).

Crystal structure of 4-chloro-2-nitro­benzoic acid with 4-hy­droxy­quinoline: a disordered structure over two states of 4-chloro-2-nitro­benzoic acid–quinolin-4(1H)-one (1/1) and 4-hy­droxy­quinolinium 4-chloro-2-nitro­b

The title compound, C9H7.5NO·C7H3.5ClNO4, was analysed as a disordered structure over two states, viz. co-crystal and salt, accompanied by a keto–enol tautomerization in the base mol­ecule. The co-crystal is 4-chloro-2-nitro­benzoic acid–quinolin-4(1H)-one (1/1), C7H4ClNO4·C9H7NO, and the salt is 4-hy­droxy­quinolinium 4-chloro-2-nitro­benzoate, C9H8NO+·C7H3ClNO4−. In the compound, the acid and base mol­ecules are held together by a short hydrogen bond [O⋯O = 2.4393 (15) Å], in which the H atom is disordered over two positions with equal occupancies. In the crystal, the hydrogen-bonded acid–base units are linked by N—H⋯O and C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds, forming a tape structure along the a-axis direction. The tapes are stacked into a layer parallel to the ab plane via π–π inter­actions [centroid–centroid distances = 3.5504 (8)–3.9010 (11) Å]. The layers are further linked by another C—H⋯O hydrogen bond, forming a three-dimensional network. Hirshfeld surfaces for the title compound mapped over shape-index and dnorm were generated to visualize the inter­molecular inter­actions.

Synthesis, crystal structure and Hirshfeld surface analysis of diethyl 2,6-dimethyl-4-(thio­phen-3-yl)-1,4-di­hydro­pyridine-3,5-di­carboxyl­ate

In the title compound, C17H21NO4S, the 1,4-di­hydro­pyridine ring has an envelope conformation with the Csp3 atom at the flap. The thio­phene ring is nearly perpendicular to the best plane through the 1,4-di­hydro­pyridine ring, the dihedral angle being 82.19 (13)°. In the crystal, chains running along the b-axis direction are formed through N—H⋯O inter­actions between the 1,4-di­hydro­pyridine N atom and one of the O atoms of the ester groups. Neighbouring chains are linked by C—H⋯O and C—H⋯π inter­actions. A Hirshfeld surface analysis shows that the most prominent contributuion to the surface contacts are H⋯H contacts (55.1%).

Crystal structure, Hirshfeld surface analysis and DFT studies of 6-[(E)-2-(thio­phen-2-yl)ethenyl]-4,5-di­hydro­pyridazin-3(2H)-one

In the title compound, C10H10N2OS, the five atoms of the thio­phene ring are essentially coplanar (r.m.s. deviation = 0.0037 Å) and the pyridazine ring is non-planar. In the crystal, pairs of N—H⋯O hydrogen bonds link the mol­ecules into dimers with an R22(8) ring motif. The dimers are linked by C—H⋯O inter­actions, forming layers parallel to the bc plane. The theoretical geometric parameters are in good agreement with XRD results. The inter­molecular inter­actions were investigated using a Hirshfeld surface analysis and two-dimensional fingerprint plots. The Hirshfeld surface analysis of the title compound suggests that the most significant contributions to the crystal packing are by H⋯H (39.7%), C⋯H/H⋯C (17.3%) and O⋯H/H⋯O (16.8%) contacts.

Crystal structure of a new polymorph of 3-acetyl-8-meth­oxy-2H-chromen-2-one

A new polymorphic form of the title compound, C12H10O4, is described in the ortho­rhom­bic space group Pbca and Z = 8, as compared to polymorph I, which crystallizes in the monoclinic space group C2/c and Z = 8 [Li et al. (2012). Chin. J. Struct. Chem. 31, 1003–1007.]. In polymorph II, the coumarin ring system is almost planar (r.m.s. deviation = 0.00129 Å). In the crystal, mol­ecules are connected by Csp3—H⋯O and Car—H⋯O hydrogen bonds, forming mol­ecular sheets linked into zigzag shaped layers along the b-axis direction. The three-dimensional lattice is assembled through stacking of the zigzag layers by π–π inter­actions with a centroid-to-centroid distance of 3.600 (9) Å and anti­parallel C=O⋯C=O inter­actions with a distance of 3.1986 (17) Å, which give rise to a helical supra­molecular architecture.

Crystal structure of [K(18-crown-6)]+2[Pt(CN)4]2−

In the title compound, di-μ-cyanato-1:2κ2N:C;2:3κ2C:N-di­cyanato-2κ2C-bis­(1,4,7,10,13,16-hexa­oxa­cyclo­octa­deca­ne)-1κ6O;3κ6O-1,3-dipotassium(I)-2-platinum(II), [K2Pt(CN)4(C12H24O6)2] or [K(18-crown-6)]2·[Pt(CN)4], two trans-orientated cyano groups of the square-planar [Pt(CN)4]2− dianion (Pt site symmetry overline{1}) bind to one potassium ion each, which are additionally coordinated by the six O atoms of 18-crown-6. No Pt⋯Pt inter­actions occur in the crystal, but very weak Pt⋯H contacts (2.79 Å) are observed.

Structure refinement of (NH4)3Al2(PO4)3 prepared by ionothermal synthesis in phospho­nium based ionic liquids – a redetermination

After crystallization during ionothermal syntheses in phospho­nium-containing ionic liquids, the structure of (NH4)3Al2(PO4)3 [tri­ammonium dialuminum tris­(phosphate)] was refined on the basis of powder X-ray diffraction data from a synchrotron source. (NH4)3Al2(PO4)3 is a member of the structural family with formula A3Al2(PO4)3, where A is a group 1 element, and of which the NH4, K, and Rb forms were previously known. The NH4 form is isostructural with the K form, and was previously solved from single-crystal X-ray data when the material (SIZ-2) crystallized from a choline-containing eutectic mixture [Cooper et al. (2004). Nature, 430, 1012–1017]. Our independent refinement incorporates NH4 groups and shows that these NH4 groups are hydrogen bonded to framework O atoms present in rings containing 12 T sites in a channel along the c-axis direction. We describe structural details of (NH4)3Al2(PO4)3 and discuss differences with respect to isostructural forms.

Crystal structure, Hirshfeld surface analysis and DFT studies of 2-[5-(4-methyl­benz­yl)-6-oxo-3-phenyl-1,6-di­hydro­pyridazin-1-yl]acetic acid

The title pyridazinone derivative, C20H18N2O3, is not planar. The phenyl ring and the pyridazine ring are inclined to each other by 10.55 (12)°, whereas the 4-methyl­benzyl ring is nearly orthogonal to the pyridazine ring, with a dihedral angle of 72.97 (10)°. In the crystal, mol­ecules are linked by pairs of O—H⋯O hydrogen bonds, forming inversion dimers with an R22(14) ring motif. The dimers are linked by C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds, generating ribbons propagating along the c-axis direction. The inter­molecular inter­actions were additionally investigated using Hirshfeld surface analysis and two-dimensional fingerprint plots. They revealed that the most significant contributions to the crystal packing are from H⋯H (48.4%), H⋯O/O⋯H (21.8%) and H⋯C/C⋯H (20.4%) contacts. Mol­ecular orbital calculations providing electron-density plots of HOMO and LUMO mol­ecular orbitals and mol­ecular electrostatic potentials (MEP) were also computed, both with the DFT/B3LYP/6–311 G++(d,p) basis set.

Crystal structure of tris­[bis­(2,6-diiso­propyl­phen­yl) phosphato-κO]penta­kis­(methanol-κO)europium methanol monosolvate

The mononuclear title complex, [Eu(C24H34O4P)3(CH4O)5]·CH4O, (1), has been obtained as a minor product in the reaction between EuCl3(H2O)6 and lithium bis­(2,6-diiso­propyl­phen­yl) phosphate in a 1:3 molar ratio in a methanol medium. Its structure exhibits monoclinic (P21/c) symmetry at 120 K and is isostructural with the La, Ce and Nd analogs reported previously [Minyaev et al. (2018a). Acta Cryst. C74, 590–598]. In (1), all three bis­(2,6-diiso­propyl­phen­yl) phosphate ligands display the terminal κ1O-coordination mode. All of the hy­droxy H atoms are involved in O—H⋯O hydrogen bonding, exhibiting four intra­molecular and two inter­molecular hydrogen bonds. Photophysical studies have demonstrated luminescence of (1) with a low quantum yield.
