In the title compound, C20H18O4, the dihedral angle between the 2H-chromen-2-one ring system and the phenyl ring is 89.12 (5)°. In the crystal, the mol­ecules are connected through C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds to generate [010] double chains that are reinforced by weak aromatic π–π stacking inter­actions. The unit-cell packing can be described as a tilted herringbone motif. The H⋯H, H⋯O/O⋯H, H⋯C/C⋯H and C⋯C contacts contribute 46.7, 24.2, 16.7 and 7.6%, respectively, to its Hirshfeld surface.

The title compound, C10H11N5O2S2, consists of an unexpected tautomer with a protonated nitro­gen atom in the triazine ring and a formal exocyclic double bond C=N to the sulfonamide moiety. The ring angles at the unsubstituted nitro­gen atoms are narrow, at 115.57 (12) and 115.19 (12)°, respectively, whereas the angle at the carbon atom between these N atoms is very wide, 127.97 (13)°. The inter­planar angle between the two rings is 79.56 (5)°. The mol­ecules are linked by three classical hydrogen bonds, forming a ribbon structure. There are also unusual linkages involving three short contacts (< 3 Å) from a sulfonamide oxygen atom to the C—NH—C part of a triazine ring.

The title compound dipotassium gadolinium(III) phosphate(V) molybdate(VI), K2Gd(PO4)(MoO4), was synthesized from a high-temperature melt starting from GdF3 as a source of gadolinium. Its structure is isotypic with other MI2MIII(MVIO4)(PO4) compounds, where MI = Na, K or Cs, and MIII = rare-earth cation, MVI = Mo or W. The three-dimensional framework is built up from [Gd(PO4)(MoO4)] anionic sheets, which are organized by adhesion of [GdPO4] layers and [MoO4] tetra­hedra stacked above and below these layers. The inter­stitial space is occupied by K cations having eightfold oxygen coordination. The polyhedron of GdO8 was estimated to be a triangular dodeca­hedron by the continuous shape measurement method.

In the title compound, C10H8N4O3·C3H7NO, the asymmetric unit contains two crystallographically independent mol­ecules A and B, each of which has one DMF solvate mol­ecule. Mol­ecules A and B both feature intra­molecular N—H⋯O hydrogen bonds, forming S(6) ring motifs and consolidating the mol­ecular configuration. In the crystal, N—H⋯O and O—H⋯O hydrogen bonds connect mol­ecules A and B, forming R22(8) ring motifs. Weak C—H⋯O inter­actions link the mol­ecules, forming layers parallel to the (overline{2}12) plane. The DMF solvent mol­ecules are also connected to the main mol­ecules (A and B) by N—H⋯O hydrogen bonds. π–π stacking inter­actions [centroid-to-centroid distance = 3.8702 (17) Å] between the layers also increase the stability of the mol­ecular structure in the third dimension. According to the Hirshfeld surface study, O⋯H/H⋯O inter­actions are the most significant contributors to the crystal packing (27.5% for mol­ecule A and 25.1% for mol­ecule B).

The asymmetric unit of the title compound, catena-poly[[[aqua­bis­(pyridine-κN)cadmium(II)]-μ2-4,4'-(1H-1,2,4-triazole-3,5-di­yl)dibenzoato-κ4O,O':O'',O'''] 4.5-hydrate], {[Cd(C16H9N3O4)(C5H5N)2(H2O)]·4.5H2O}n or {[Cd(bct)(py)2(H2O)]·4.5H2O}n (I), consists of a Cd2+ cation coordinated to one bct2– carboxyl­ate dianion, two mol­ecules of pyridine and a water mol­ecule as well as four and a half water mol­ecules of crystallization. The metal ion in I possesses a penta­gonal–bipyramidal environment with the four O atoms of the two bidentately coordinated carboxyl­ate groups and the N atom of a pyridine mol­ecule forming the O4N equatorial plane, while the N atom of another pyridine ligand and the O atom of the water mol­ecule occupy the axial positions. The bct2– bridging ligand connects two metal ions via its carb­oxy­lic groups, resulting in the formation of a parallel linear polymeric chain running along the [1overline{1}1] direction. The coordinated water mol­ecule of one chain forms a strong O—H⋯O hydrogen bond with the carboxyl­ate O atom of a neighboring chain, leading to the formation of double chains with a closest distance of 5.425 (7) Å between the cadmium ions belonging to different chains. Aromatic π–π stacking inter­actions between the benzene fragments of the anions as well as between the coordinated pyridine mol­ecules belonging to different chains results in the formation of sheets oriented parallel to the (overline{1}01) plane. As a result of hydrogen-bonding inter­actions involving the water mol­ecules of crystallization, the sheets are joined together in a three-dimensional network.

The title compound, C16H11N2OF, is a member of the azo dye family. The dihedral angle subtended by the benzene ring and the naphthalene ring system measures 18.75 (7)°, indicating that the compound is not perfectly planar. An intra­molecular N—H⋯O hydrogen bond occurs between the imino and carbonyl groups. In the crystal, the mol­ecules are linked into inversion dimers by C—H⋯O inter­actions. Aromatic π–π stacking between the naphthalene ring systems lead to the formation of chains along [001]. A Hirshfeld surface analysis was undertaken to investigate and qu­antify the inter­molecular inter­actions. In addition, energy frameworks were used to examine the cooperative effect of these inter­molecular inter­actions across the crystal, showing dispersion energy to be the most influential factor in the crystal organization of the compound.

The title compound, N1,N2-di­methyl­ethane­dihydrazide, C4H10N4O2, was obtained by the methyl­ation of oxalyl dihydrazide protected with phthalimide. The mol­ecule is essentially non-planar with a dihedral angle between the two planar hydrazide fragments of 86.5 (2)°. This geometry contributes to the formation of a multi-contact three-dimensional supra­molecular network via C—H⋯O, N—H⋯O and N—H⋯N hydrogen bonds.

Reaction of CoBr2 with 2-methyl­pyridine N-oxide in n-butanol leads to the formation of the title compound, [CoBr2(C6H7NO)2] or [CoBr2(2-methyl­pyridine N-oxide)2]. Its asymmetric unit consists of one CoII cation as well as two bromide anions and two 2-methyl­pyridine N-oxide coligands in general positions. The CoII cations are tetra­hedrally coordinated by two bromide anions and two 2-methyl­pyridine N-oxides, forming discrete complexes. In the crystal structure, these complexes are linked predominantly by weak C–H⋯Br hydrogen bonding into chains that propagate along the crystallographic a-axis. Powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD) measurements indicate that a pure phase was obtained. Thermoanalytical investigations prove that the title compound melts before decomposition; before melting, a further endothermic signal of unknown origin was observed that does not correspond to a phase transition.

The crystal structure of the new triclinic polymorph of miconazole {MIC; C18H14Cl4N2O; systematic name: (RS)-1-[2-(2,4-di­chloro­benz­yloxy)-2-(2,4-di­chloro­phen­yl)eth­yl]-1H-imidazole} is reported and compared with the monoclinic form of solvent-free miconazole previously reported [Kaspiaruk & Chęcińska (2022). Acta Cryst. C78, 343–350]. A comparison shows a different orientation of imidazole and one di­chloro­phenyl ring between polymorphic mol­ecules. In the crystal structure of the title compound, only weak halogen bonds and C—H⋯π(arene) inter­actions are found. Hirshfeld surface analysis and energy framework calculations complement the comparison of the two polymorphic forms of the miconazole drug.

We report the synthesis and structural characterization of three crystalline borylated ortho-silylaryl tri­fluoro­methane­sulfonates: 5-(4,4,5,5-tetra­methyl-1,3,2-dioxaborolan-2-yl)-2-(tri­methyl­sil­yl)phenyl tri­fluoro­methane­sulfonate, C16H24BF3O5SSi (1a), 4-(4,4,5,5-tetra­methyl-1,3,2-dioxaborolan-2-yl)-2-(tri­methyl­sil­yl)phenyl tri­fluoro­methane­sulfonate, C16H24BF3O5SSi (1b), and 2-methyl-4-(4,4,5,5-tetra­methyl-1,3,2-dioxaborolan-2-yl)-6-(tri­methyl­silyl)phen­yl tri­fluoro­methane­sulfonate, C17H26BF3O5SSi (2), which are versatile aryne precursors. For all three compounds, the heteroatom substituents are almost coplanar with the central aromatic moiety. C—heteroatom bonding metrics are unexceptional and fall withing the typical range of C—B, C—Si, and C—O single bonds. Despite numerous electronegative sites, only weak inter­molecular inter­actions are observed in the solid state.

The title complex, [Au(NCO)(C27H36N2)], was synthesized by ligand metathesis from [1,3-bis­(2,6-diiso­propyl­phen­yl)imidazol-2-yl­idene]gold(I) chloride and sodium cyanate in anhydrous tetra­hydro­furan and crystallized from toluene at 233 K in the ortho­rhom­bic space group P212121, as a neutral complex with the central Au atom di-coordinated by an N-heterocyclic carbene [Au—C = 1.963 (2) Å] and an iso­cyanate [Au—N 1.999 (2) Å] ligands, with a linear CAuNCO moiety. The crystal packing is consolidated by C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds.

The title com­pound, C13H11NO, adopts an E configuration about the C=C double bond. The pyrrole ring is inclined to the phenyl ring at an angle of 44.94 (8)°. In the crystal, mol­ecules are linked by N—H⋯O hydrogen bonds, forming ribbons parallel to (020) in zigzag C(7) chains along the a axis. These ribbons are connected via C—H⋯π inter­actions, forming a three-dimensional network. No significant π–π inter­actions are observed.

The reaction of Co(NCS)2 with 4-methyl­pyridine N-oxide (C6H7NO) leads to the formation of two compounds, namely, tetra­kis­(4-methyl­pyridine N-oxide-κO)bis­(thio­cyanato-κN)cobalt(II), [Co(NCS)2(C6H7NO)4] (1), and tris­(4-methyl­pyridine N-oxide-κO)bis­(thio­cyanato-κN)cobalt(II), [Co(NCS)2(C6H7NO)3] (2). The asymmetric unit of 1 consists of one CoII cation located on a centre of inversion, as well as one thio­cyanate anion and two 4-methyl­pyridine N-oxide coligands in general positions. The CoII cations are octa­hedrally coordinated by two terminal N-bonding thio­cyanate anions in trans positions and four 4-methyl­pyridine N-oxide ligands. In the extended structure, these complexes are linked by C—H⋯O and C—H⋯S inter­actions. In compound 2, two crystallographically independent complexes are present, which occupy general positions. In each of these complexes, the CoII cations are coordinated in a trigonal–bipyramidal manner by two terminal N-bonding thio­cyanate anions in axial positions and by three 4-methyl­pyridine N-oxide ligands in equatorial positions. In the crystal, these complex mol­ecules are linked by C—H⋯S inter­actions. For compound 2, a nonmerohedral twin refinement was performed. Powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD) reveals that 2 was nearly obtained as a pure phase, which is not possible for compound 1. Differential thermoanalysis and thermogravimetry data (DTA–TG) show that compound 2 start to decompose at about 518 K.

Single crystals of alkali aluminoboracites, A4B4Al3O12Cl (A = Li, Na), were grown using the self-flux method, and their isotypic cubic crystal structures were determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. Na4B4Al3O12Cl is the first reported sodium boracite, and its lattice parameter [13.5904 (1) Å] is the largest among the boracites consisting of a cation–oxygen framework reported so far. For both crystals, structure models refined in the cubic space group Foverline{4}3c, which assume that all cubic octant subcells in the unit cell are equivalent, converged with R1 factors of ∼0.03. However, the presence of weak hhl reflections with odd h and l values indicates that refinements in the space group F23, which presume a checkerboard-like ordering of two types of subcells with slightly different atomic positions, are more appropriate.

In the title salt, poly[aqua­[μ4-bis­(malonato)borato]sodium], {[Na(C6H4BO8)]·H2O}n or Na+·[B(C3H2O4)2]−·H2O, the sodium cation exhibits fivefold coordination by four carbonyl O atoms of the bis­(malonato)borate anions and a water O atom. The tetra­hedral B atom at the centre of the anion leads to the formation of a polymeric three-dimensional framework, which is consolidated by C—H⋯O and O—H⋯O hydrogen bonds. A Hirshfeld surface analysis indicates that the most significant contacts in the crystal packing are H⋯O/O⋯H (49.7%), Na⋯O/O⋯Na (16.1%), O⋯O (12.6%), H⋯H (10.7%) and C⋯O/O⋯C (7.3%).

The crystal structures and Hirshfeld surface analyses of three similar azo compounds are reported. Methyl 4-{2,2-di­chloro-1-[(E)-phenyl­diazen­yl]ethen­yl}benzoate, C16H12Cl2N2O2, (I), and methyl 4-{2,2-di­chloro-1-[(E)-(4-methyl­phen­yl)diazen­yl]ethen­yl}benzoate, C17H14Cl2N2O2, (II), crystallize in the space group P21/c with Z = 4, and methyl 4-{2,2-di­chloro-1-[(E)-(3,4-di­methyl­phen­yl)diazen­yl]ethen­yl}benzoate, C18H16Cl2N2O2, (III), in the space group Poverline{1} with Z = 2. In the crystal of (I), mol­ecules are linked by C—H⋯N hydrogen bonds, forming chains with C(6) motifs parallel to the b axis. Short inter­molecular Cl⋯O contacts of 2.8421 (16) Å and weak van der Waals inter­actions between these chains stabilize the crystal structure. In (II), mol­ecules are linked by C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds and C—Cl⋯π inter­actions, forming layers parallel to (010). Weak van der Waals inter­actions between these layers consolidate the mol­ecular packing. In (III), mol­ecules are linked by C—H⋯π and C—Cl⋯π inter­actions forming chains parallel to [011]. Furthermore, these chains are connected by C—Cl⋯π inter­actions parallel to the a axis, forming (0overline{1}1) layers. The stability of the mol­ecular packing is ensured by van der Waals forces between these layers.

The title compound, C16H17N3O3, is racemic as it crystallizes in a centrosymmetric space group (Poverline{1}), although the trans disposition of substituents about the central C—C bond is established. The five- and six-membered rings are oriented at a dihedral angle of 75.88 (8)°. In the crystal, N—H⋯N hydrogen bonds form chains of mol­ecules extending along the c-axis direction that are connected by inversion-related pairs of O—H⋯N into ribbons. The ribbons are linked by C—H⋯π(ring) inter­actions, forming layers parallel to the ab plane. A Hirshfeld surface analysis indicates that the most important contributions for the crystal packing are from H⋯H (45.9%), H⋯N/N⋯H (23.3%), H⋯C/C⋯H (16.2%) and H⋯O/O⋯H (12.3%) inter­actions. Hydrogen bonding and van der Waals inter­actions are the dominant inter­actions in the crystal packing. The volume of the crystal voids and the percentage of free space were calculated to be 100.94 Å3 and 13.20%, showing that there is no large cavity in the crystal packing. Evaluation of the electrostatic, dispersion and total energy frameworks indicates that the stabilization is dominated by the electrostatic energy contributions in the title compound. Moreover, the DFT-optimized structure at the B3LYP/6–311 G(d,p) level is compared with the experimentally determined mol­ecular structure in the solid state. The HOMO–LUMO behaviour was elucidated to determine the energy gap.

The in­do­line portion of the title mol­ecule, C16H13NO2, is planar. In the crystal, a layer structure is generated by C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds and C—H⋯π(ring), π-stacking and C=O⋯π(ring) inter­actions. The Hirshfeld surface analysis of the crystal structure indicates that the most important contributions for the crystal packing are from H⋯H (43.0%), H⋯C/C⋯H (25.0%) and H⋯O/O⋯H (22.8%) inter­actions. Hydrogen bonding and van der Waals inter­actions are the dominant inter­actions in the crystal packing. The volume of the crystal voids and the percentage of free space were calculated to be 120.52 Å3 and 9.64%, respectively, showing that there is no large cavity in the crystal packing. Evaluation of the electrostatic, dispersion and total energy frameworks indicate that the stabilization is dominated by the dispersion energy contributions in the title compound. Moreover, the DFT-optimized structure at the B3LYP/6-311G(d,p) level is compared with the experimentally determined mol­ecular structure in the solid state.

The title compound, C27H20N4O3S, crystallizes in the monoclinic system, space group P21/n, with Z = 4. The global shape of the mol­ecule is determined by the orientation of the substituents on the central 4H-1,2,4-triazole ring. The nitro­phenyl ring, phenyl ring, and naphthalene ring system are oriented at dihedral angles of 82.95 (17), 77.14 (18) and 89.46 (15)°, respectively, with respect to the triazole ring. The crystal packing features chain formation in the b-axis direction by S⋯O inter­actions. A Hirshfeld surface analysis indicates that the highest contributions to surface contacts arise from contacts in which H atoms are involved.

In the crystal of the title compound, C6H9ClN2O, mol­ecular pairs form dimers with an R22(8) motif through N—H⋯O hydrogen bonds. These dimers are connect into ribbons parallel to the (100) plane with R44(10) motifs by N—H⋯O hydrogen bonds along the c-axis direction. In addition, π–π [centroid-to-centroid distance = 3.4635 (9) Å] and C—Cl⋯π inter­actions between the ribbons form layers parallel to the (100) plane. The three-dimensional consolidation of the crystal structure is also ensured by Cl⋯H and Cl⋯Cl inter­actions between these layers. According to a Hirshfeld surface study, H⋯H (43.3%), Cl⋯H/H⋯Cl (22.1%) and O⋯H/H⋯O (18.7%) inter­actions are the most significant contributors to the crystal packing.

A new lanthanide coordination polymer, poly[[tri­aqua­bis­(μ4-phthalato)(μ3-pyridine-2,5-di­carboxyl­ato)dipraseodymium] monohydrate], {[Pr2(C7H3NO4)2(C8H4O4)(H2O)3]·H2O}n or {[Pr2(phth)2(pydc)(H2O)3]·H2O}n, (pydc2− = pyridine-2,5-di­carboxyl­ate and phth2− = phthalate) was synthesized and characterized, revealing the structure to be an assembly of di-periodic {Pr2(pydc)(phth)2(H2O)3}n layers. Each layer is built up by edge-sharing {Pr2N2O14} and {Pr2O16} dimers, which are connected through a new coordin­ation mode of pydc2− and phth2−. These layers are stabilized by inter­nal hydrogen bonds and π–π inter­actions. In addition, a three-dimensional supra­molecular framework is built by inter­layer hydrogen-bonding inter­actions involving the non-coordinated water mol­ecule. Thermogravimetric analysis shows that the title compound is thermally stable up to 400°C.

The title compound [systematic name: 1-(2-nitro­phen­yl)pyrrole-2,5-dione], C10H6N2O4, crystallizes in the monoclinic system (space group P21/n) with two mol­ecules in the asymmetric unit, which are linked by C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds. Hirshfeld surface analysis showed that the most significant contributions to the crystal packing are from H⋯O/O⋯H, H⋯C/C⋯H and H⋯H inter­actions, which contribute 54.7%, 15.2% and 15.6%, respectively. A DFT study was conducted using three different levels of theory [(B3LYP/6–311+G(d,p), wB97XD/Def2TZVPP and LC-wpbe/6–311(2 d,2p)] in order to determine the stability, structural and electronic properties of the title mol­ecule with a view to its potential applications and photochemical and copolymer properties.

The reaction between 2-pyridyl­selenenyl chloride and isobutyro­nitrile results in the formation of the corresponding cationic pyridinium-fused 1,2,4-seleno­diazole, namely, 3-(propan-2-yl)-1,2,4-[1,2,4]selena­diazolo[4,5-a]pyridin-4-ylium chloride, C9H11N2Se+·Cl−, in high yield (89%). The structure of the compound, established by means of single-crystal X-ray analysis at 100 K, has monoclinic (P21/c) symmetry and revealed the presence of bifurcated chalcogen-hydrogen bonding Se⋯Cl−⋯H—Cl, and these non-covalent contacts were analysed by DFT calculations followed by a topological analysis of the electron-density distribution (ωB97XD/6-311++G** level of theory).

The title mol­ecule, [Fe2(C5H5)2(C23H17ClN2)]·C3H7NO, is twisted end to end and the central N/C/N unit is disordered. In the crystal, several C—H⋯π(ring) inter­actions lead to the formation of layers, which are connected by further C—H⋯π(ring) inter­actions. A Hirshfeld surface analysis of the crystal structure indicates that the most important contributions for the crystal packing are from H⋯H (60.2%) and H⋯C/C⋯H (27.0%) inter­actions. Hydrogen bonding, C—H⋯π(ring) inter­actions and van der Waals inter­actions dominate the crystal packing.

Lanthanide-containing materials are of inter­est in the field of crystal engin­eering because of their unique properties and distinct structure types. In this context, a new samarium–sodium heterometallic coordination polymer, poly[tetra­kis­(μ2-2-formyl-6-meth­oxy­phenolato)samarium(III)sodium(I)], {[SmNa(C8H7O3)4]·solvent}n (Sm-1), was synthesized and crystallized via slow evaporation from a mixture of ethanol and aceto­nitrile. The compound features alternating SmIII and NaI ions, which are linked by ortho-vanillin (o-vanillin) ligands to form a mono-periodic chain-like coordination polymer. The chains propagate along the [001] direction. Residual electron density of disordered solvent mol­ecules in the void space could not be reasonably modeled, thus the SQUEEZE function was applied. The structural, vibrational, and optical properties are reported.

Two compounds, (S)-8-{[(tert-butyl­dimethyl­sil­yl)­oxy]meth­yl}-1-[(2,2,4,6,7-penta­methyl-2,3-di­hydro­benzo­furan-5-yl)sulfon­yl]-1,3,4,6,7,8-hexa­hydro-2H-pyrimido[1,2-a]pyrimidin-1-ium tri­fluoro­methane­sulfonate, C27H46N3O4SSi+·CF3O3S−, (1) and (S)-8-(iodo­meth­yl)-1-tosyl-1,3,4,6,7,8-hexa­hydro-2H-pyrimido[1,2-a]pyrimidin-1-ium iodide, C15H21IN3O2S+·I−, (2), have been synthesized and characterized. They are bicyclic guanidinium salts and were synthesized from N-(tert-but­oxy­carbon­yl)-l-me­thio­nine (Boc-l-Met-OH). The guanidine is protected by a 2,2,4,6,7-penta­methyl­dihydro­benzo­furan-5-sulfonyl (Pbf, 1) or a tosyl (2) group. In the crystals of both compounds, the guanidinium group is almost planar and the N–H forms an intra­molecular hydrogen bond in a six-membered ring to the oxygen atom of the sulfonamide protecting group.

The title compound, (C4H12N)[V(C12H8N4O2)O2]·H2O, was synthesized via aerial oxidation on refluxing picolinohydrazide with ethyl picolinate followed by addition of VIVO(acac)2 and di­ethyl­amine in methanol. It crystallizes in the triclinic crystal system in space group Poverline{1}. In the complex anion, the dioxidovanadium(V) moiety exhibits a distorted square-pyramidal geometry. In the crystal, extensive hydrogen bonding links the water mol­ecule to two complex anions and one di­ethyl­ammonium ion. One of the CH2 groups in the di­ethyl­amine is disordered over two sets of sites in a 0.7:0.3 ratio.

The crystal structures and Hirshfeld surface analyses of three similar compounds are reported. Methyl 4-[4-(di­fluoro­meth­oxy)phen­yl]-2,7,7-trimethyl-5-oxo-1,4,5,6,7,8-hexa­hydro­quinoline-3-carboxyl­ate, (C21H23F2NO4), (I), crystallizes in the monoclinic space group C2/c with Z = 8, while isopropyl 4-[4-(di­fluoro­meth­oxy)phen­yl]-2,6,6-trimethyl-5-oxo-1,4,5,6,7,8-hexa­hydro­quinoline-3-carb­oxyl­ate, (C23H27F2NO4), (II) and tert-butyl 4-[4-(di­fluoro­meth­oxy)phen­yl]-2,6,6-trimethyl-5-oxo-1,4,5,6,7,8-hexa­hydro­quinoline-3-carboxyl­ate, (C24H29F2NO4), (III) crystallize in the ortho­rhom­bic space group Pbca with Z = 8. In the crystal structure of (I), mol­ecules are linked by N—H⋯O and C—H⋯O inter­actions, forming a tri-periodic network, while mol­ecules of (II) and (III) are linked by N—H⋯O, C—H⋯F and C—H⋯π inter­actions, forming layers parallel to (002). The cohesion of the mol­ecular packing is ensured by van der Waals forces between these layers. In (I), the atoms of the 4-di­fluoro­meth­oxy­phenyl group are disordered over two sets of sites in a 0.647 (3): 0.353 (3) ratio. In (III), the atoms of the dimethyl group attached to the cyclo­hexane ring, and the two carbon atoms of the cyclo­hexane ring are disordered over two sets of sites in a 0.646 (3):0.354 (3) ratio.

In the title compound, C12H11N3OS, the inter­planar angle between the pyrazole and benzo­thia­zole rings is 3.31 (7)°. In the three-dimensional mol­ecular packing, the carbonyl oxygen acts as acceptor to four C—H donors (with one H⋯O as short as 2.25 Å), while one methyl hydrogen is part of the three-centre system H⋯(S, O). A double layer structure parallel to (overline{1}01) can be recognized as a subsection of the packing.

The crystal structure of the tetra­ethyl­ammonium salt of the non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug nimesulide (polymorph II) (systematic name: tetra­ethyl­ammonium N-methane­sulfonyl-4-nitro-2-phen­oxy­anilinide), C8H20N+·C13H11N2O5S−, was determined using single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The title compound crystallizes in the monoclinic space group P21/c with one tetra­ethyl­ammonium cation and one nimesulide anion in the asymmetric unit. In the crystal, the ions are linked by C—H⋯N and C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds and C—H⋯π inter­actions. There are differences in the geometry of both the nimesulide anion and the tetra­ethyl­ammonium cation in polymorphs I [Rybczyńska & Sikorski (2023). Sci. Rep. 13, 17268] and II of the title compound.

A CuII coordination polymer, catena-poly[[[aqua­copper(II)]-bis­(μ-4-amino­benz­o­ato)-κ2N:O;κ2O:N] monohydrate], {[Cu(pABA)2(H2O)]·H2O}n (pABA = p-amino­benzoate, C7H4NO2−), was synthesized and characterized. It exhibits a one-dimensional chain structure extended into a three-dimensional supra­molecular assembly through hydrogen bonds and π–π inter­actions. While the twinned crystal shows a metrically ortho­rhom­bic lattice and an apparent space group Pbcm, the true symmetry is monoclinic (space group P2/c), with disordered Cu atoms and mixed roles of water mol­ecules (aqua ligand/crystallization water). The luminescence spectrum of the complex shows an emission at 345 nm, cf. 349 nm for pABAH.

The crystal structure of the sodium salt of mesotrione, namely, catena-poly[[sodium-μ3-2-[(4-methane­sulfonyl-2-nitro­phen­yl)carbon­yl]-3-oxo­cyclo­hex-1-en-1-olato] ethanol monosolvate], {[Na(C14H12NO7S)]C2H5OH}n, is described. The X-ray structural analysis results reveal that the coordination sphere is established by two chelating O atoms, the O atom of the coordinated ethanol mol­ecule, and an O atom from the methyl­sulfonyl group of a neighboring mol­ecule. Simultaneously, an O atom of the cyclo­hexane fragment serves as a bridge to a neighboring sodium ion, forming a flat Na–O–Na–O quadrangle, thereby forming a mono-periodic polymer. The structure displays O—H⋯O hydrogen bonds and C—H⋯O short contacts. Thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) data indicate that the sodium salt of mesotrione decomposes in four stages.

An attempt to explore the reactivity of the nitro group in the presence of gold catalysis in comparison to the azide group yielded intriguing results. Surprisingly, only the nitro group exhibited reactivity, ultimately giving rise to the formation of the title isatogen, C14H8N4O2. In the crystal structure, weak C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds and π–π stacking inter­actions link the mol­ecules. The structure exhibits disorder of the mol­ecule.

In the title compound, C31H24N4O2, the quinoxaline units are distinctly non-planar and twisted end-to-end. In the crystal, C—H⋯O and C—H⋯N hydrogen bonds link the mol­ecules into chains extending along the a-axis direction. The chains are linked through π-stacking inter­actions between inversion-related quinoxaline moieties.

The neutral organosilicon(IV) complex, (C6F5)2Si(OPO)2 (OPO = 1-oxopyridin-2-one, C5H4NO2), was synthesized from (C6F5)2Si(OCH3)2 and 2 equiv. of 1-hy­droxy­pyridin-2-one in tetra­hydro­furan (THF). Single crystals grown from the diffusion of n-pentane into a THF solution were identified as a THF hemisolvate and an n-pentane hemisolvate, (C6F5)2Si(OPO)2·0.5THF·0.5C5H12 (1). p-Tol­yl2Si(OPO)2 (2) and mesit­yl2Si(OPO)2 (3) crystallized directly from reaction mixtures of 2 equiv. of Me3Si(OPO) with p-tol­yl2SiCl2 and mesit­yl2SiCl2, respectively, in aceto­nitrile. The oxygen-bonded carbon and nitro­gen atoms of the OPO ligands in 1, 2, and 3 were modeled as disordered indicating co-crystallization of up to three possible diastereomers in each. Solution NMR studies support the presence of exclusively the all-cis isomer in 1 and multiple isomers in 2. Poor solubility of 3 limited its characterization in solution.

The title compound, C14H12N2O4, was obtained from 2-acetyl-6-amino­naphthalene through two-step reactions of acetyl­ation and nitration. The mol­ecule comprises the naphthalene ring system consisting of functional systems bearing a acetyl group (C-2), a nitro group (C-5), and an acetyl­amino group (C-6). In the crystal, the mol­ecules are assembled into two-dimensional sheet-like structures by inter­molecular N—H⋯O and C—H⋯O hydrogen-bonding inter­actions. Hirshfeld surface analysis illustrates that the most important contributions to the crystal packing are from O⋯H/H⋯O (43.7%), H⋯H (31.0%), and C⋯H/H⋯C (8.5%) contacts.

In the title compound, C21H15N5OS2, mol­ecular pairs are linked by N—H⋯N hydrogen bonds along the c-axis direction and C—H⋯S and C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds along the b-axis direction, with R22(12) and R22(16) motifs, respectively, thus forming layers parallel to the (10overline{4}) plane. In addition, C=S⋯π and C≡N⋯π inter­actions between the layers ensure crystal cohesion. The Hirshfeld surface analysis indicates that the major contributions to the crystal packing are H⋯H (43.0%), C⋯H/H⋯C (16.9%), N⋯H/H⋯N (11.3%) and S⋯H/H⋯S (10.9%) inter­actions.

Metal complexes of 3,5-diiso­propyl­salicylate are reported to have anti-inflammatory and anti-convulsant activities. The title binuclear copper complex, [Cu2(C13H17O3)4(C2H6OS)2] or [Cu(II)2(3,5-DIPS)4(DMSO)2], contains two five-coordinate copper atoms that are bridged by four 3,5-diiso­propyl­salicylate ligands and capped by two axial dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) moieties. Each copper atom is attached to four oxygen atoms in an almost square-planar fashion, with the addition of a DMSO ligand in an apical position leading to a square-pyramidal arrangement. The hy­droxy group of the diiso­propyl­salicylate ligands participates in intra­molecular O—H⋯O hydrogen-bonding inter­actions.

The title compound, C25H18N4, crystallizes in the centrosymmetric ortho­rhom­bic space group Pbca, with eight mol­ecules in the unit cell. The main feature noticeable in the structure is the impact of the tri­cyano­vinyl (TCV) group in forcing partial planarity of the portion of the mol­ecule carrying the TCV group and directing the mol­ecular packing in the solid state, resulting in the formation of π-stacks of dimers within the unit cell. Short π–π stack closest atom-to-atom distances of 3.444 (15) Å are observed. Such motif patterns are favorable as they are thought to be conducive for better charge transport in organic semiconductors, which results in enhanced device performance. Intra­molecular charge transfer is evident from the shortening in the observed experimental bond lengths. The nitro­gen atoms (of the cyano groups) are involved in extensive short contacts, primarily through C—H⋯NC inter­actions with distances of 2.637 (17) Å.

The complex, tri­chlorido­(1,4,11-tri­aza-8-azonia­tetra­cyclo­[6.6.2.04,16.011,15]hexa­decane 1-oxide-κO)zinc(II) monohydrate, [ZnCl3(C12H23N4O)]·H2O, (I), has monoclinic symmetry (space group P21/n) at 120 K. The zinc(II) center adopts a slightly distorted tetra­hedral coordination geometry and is coordinated by three chlorine atoms and the oxygen atom of the oxidized tertiary amine of the tetra­cycle. The amine nitro­gen atom, inside the ligand cleft, is protonated and forms a hydrogen bond to the oxygen of the amine oxide. Additional hydrogen-bonding inter­actions involve the protonated amine, the water solvate oxygen atom, and one of the chloro ligands.

The structure of (S)-5-(3-acetyl-5-chloro-2-ethoxy-6-fluorophenyl)-2-oxazolidinone, C13H13ClFNO4, at 100 K has monoclinic (P21) symmetry. The compound has a polymeric structure propagated by a screw axis parallel to the b axis with N—H⋯O hydrogen bonding. It is of inter­est with respect to efforts in the synthesis of a candidate anti­cancer drug, parsaclisib.

The structures of ten phosphane chalcogenide complexes of gold(III) halides, with general formula R13–nR2nPEAuX3 (R1 = t-butyl; R2 = i-propyl; n = 0 to 3; E = S or Se; X = Cl or Br) are presented. The eight possible chlorido derivatives are: 9a, n = 3, E = S; 10a, n = 2, E = S; 11a, n = 1, E = S; 12a, n = 0, E = S; 13a, n = 3, E = Se; 14a, n = 2, E = Se; 15a, n = 1, E = Se; and 16a, n = 0, E = Se, and the corresponding bromido derivatives are 9b–16b in the same order. Structures were obtained for 9a, 10a (and a second polymorph 10aa), 11a (and its deutero­chloro­form monosolvate 11aa), 12a (as its di­chloro­methane monosolvate), 14a, 15a (as its deutero­chloro­form monosolvate 15aa, in which the solvent mol­ecule is disordered over two positions), 9b, 11b, 13b and 15b. The structures of 11a, 15a, 11b and 15b form an isotypic set, and those of compounds 10aa and 14a form an isotypic pair. All structures have Z' = 1. The gold(III) centres show square-planar coordination geometry and the chalcogenide atoms show approximately tetra­hedral angles (except for the very wide angle in 12a, probably associated with the bulky t-butyl groups). The bond lengths at the gold atoms are lengthened with respect to the known gold(I) derivatives, and demonstrate a considerable trans influence of S and Se donor atoms on a trans Au—Cl bond. Each compound with an isopropyl group shows a short intra­molecular contact of the type C—Hmethine⋯Xcis; these may be regarded as intra­molecular ‘weak’ hydrogen bonds, and they determine the orientation of the AuX3 groups. The mol­ecular packing is analysed in terms of various short contacts such as weak hydrogen bonds C—H⋯X and contacts between the heavier atoms, such as X⋯X (9a, 10aa, 11aa, 15aa and 9b), S⋯S (10aa, 11a and 12a) and S⋯Cl (10a). The packing of the polymorphs 10a and 10aa is thus quite different. The solvent mol­ecules take part in C—H⋯Cl hydrogen bonds; for 15aa, a disordered solvent region at z ≃ 0 is observed. Structure 13b involves unusual inversion-symmetric dimers with Se⋯Au and Se⋯Br contacts, further connected by Br⋯Br contacts.

The title compound, C14H12N4O2·0.5HCl·H2O or H(C14H12N4O2)2+·Cl−·2H2O, arose from the unexpected cyclization of isonicotinoyl-N-phenyl hydrazine carbo­thio­amide catalysed by cobalt(II) acetate. The organic mol­ecule is almost planar and a symmetric N⋯H+⋯N hydrogen bond links two of them together, with the H atom lying on a crystallographic twofold axis. The extended structure features N—H⋯O and O—H⋯Cl hydrogen bonds, which generate [001] chains. Weak C—H⋯Cl inter­actions cross-link the chains. The chloride ion has site symmetry 2. The major contributions to the Hirshfeld surface are from H⋯H (47.1%), Cl⋯H/H⋯Cl (total 10.8%), O⋯H/H⋯O (7.4%) and N⋯H/H⋯N (6.7%) inter­actions.

A lutetium(III) complex based on the anion of the ligand dimethyl (2,2,2-tri­chloro­acet­yl)phospho­ramidate (HL) and tetra­phenylphosphonium, of composition PPh4[LuL4] (L = CAPh = carbacyl­amido­phosphate), or (C24H20)[Lu(C4H6Cl3NO4P)4], has been synthesized and structurally characterized. The X-ray diffraction study of the compound revealed that the lutetium ion is surrounded by four bis-chelating CAPh ligands, forming the complex anion [LuL4]− with a coordination number of 8[O] for LuIII, while PPh4+ serves as a counter-ion. The coordination geometry around the Lu3+ ion was determined to be a nearly perfect triangular dodeca­hedron. The complex crystallizes in the monoclinic crystal system, space group P21/c, with four mol­ecules in the unit cell. Weak hydrogen bonds O⋯HC(Ph), Cl⋯HC(Ph) and N⋯HC(Ph) are formed between the cations and anions. For a comparative study, HL-based structures were retrieved from the Cambridge Structural Database (CSD) and their geometries and conformations are discussed. A Hirshfeld surface analysis was also performed.

The asymmetric unit of the title compound, 2C31H28N2O4S·C2H6O, contains a parent mol­ecule and a half mol­ecule of ethanol solvent. The main compound stabilizes its mol­ecular conformation by forming a ring with an R12(7) motif with the ethanol solvent mol­ecule. In the crystal, mol­ecules are connected by C—H⋯O and O—H⋯O hydrogen bonds, forming a three-dimensional network. In addition, C—H⋯π inter­actions also strengthen the mol­ecular packing.

In the crystal of the title compound, C18H14O10·2H2O, the arene rings of the biphenyl moiety are tilted at an angle of 24.3 (1)°, while the planes passing through the carboxyl groups are rotated at angles of 8.6 (1) and 7.7 (1)° out of the plane of the benzene ring to which they are attached. The crystal structure is essentially stabilized by O—H⋯O bonds. Here, the carboxyl groups of neighbouring host mol­ecules are connected by cyclic R22(8) synthons, leading to the formation of a three-dimensional network. The water mol­ecules in turn form helical supra­molecular strands running in the direction of the crystallographic c-axis (chain-like water clusters). The second H atom of each water mol­ecule provides a link to a meth­oxy O atom of the host mol­ecule. A Hirshfeld surface analysis was performed to qu­antify the contributions of the different inter­molecular inter­actions, indicating that the most important contributions to the crystal packing are from H⋯O/O⋯H (37.0%), H⋯H (26.3%), H⋯C/C⋯H (18.5%) and C⋯O/O⋯C (9.5%) inter­actions.

In the title mol­ecule, C21H23N3O3, the imidazolidine ring slightly deviates from planarity and the morpholine ring exhibits the chair conformation. In the crystal, N—H⋯O and C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds form helical chains of mol­ecules extending parallel to the c axis that are connected by C—H⋯π(ring) inter­actions. A Hirshfeld surface analysis reveals that the most important contributions for the crystal packing are from H⋯H (55.2%), H⋯C/C⋯H (22.6%) and H⋯O/O⋯H (20.5%) inter­actions. The volume of the crystal voids and the percentage of free space were calculated to be 236.78 Å3 and 12.71%, respectively. Evaluation of the electrostatic, dispersion and total energy frameworks indicates that the stabilization is dominated by the nearly equal electrostatic and dispersion energy contributions. The DFT-optimized mol­ecular structure at the B3LYP/6-311 G(d,p) level is compared with the experimentally determined mol­ecular structure in the solid state. Moreover, the HOMO–LUMO behaviour was elucidated to determine the energy gap.

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.

N-Phenyl-2-(phenyl­sulfan­yl)acetamide, C14H13NOS, was synthesized and structurally characterized. In the crystal, N—H⋯O hydrogen bonding leads to the formation of chains of mol­ecules along the [100] direction. The chains are linked by C—H⋯π inter­actions, forming a three-dimensional network. The crystal studied was twinned by a twofold rotation around [100].

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.
