Crystal structure and Hirshfeld surface analysis of 2-picolyllithium·3thf

In the title compound, (2-methyl­idene-1,2-di­hydro­pyridinium-κN)tris­(tetra­hydro­furan-κO)lithium, [Li(C6H6N)(C4H8O)3], the lithium ion adopts a distorted LiNO3 tetra­hedral coordination geometry and the 2-picolyl anion adopts its enamido form with the lithium ion lying close to the plane of the pyridine ring. A methyl­ene group of one of the thf ligands is disordered over two orientations. In the crystal, a weak C—H⋯O inter­action generates inversion dimers. A Hirshfeld surface analysis shows that H⋯H contacts dominate the packing (86%) followed by O⋯H/H⋯O and C⋯H/H⋯C contacts, which contribute 3% and 10.4%, respectively.

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.

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.

It crystallizes as a centrosymmetric dimer, with one cadmium atom, two bromine atoms and one N,N'-bidentate 4-(2-aminoethyl)morpholine ligand in the asymmetric unit. The metal atom is six-coordinated and has a distorted octa­hedral geometry.

Further C—H⋯Br and N—H⋯Br hydrogen bonds link the components into a three-dimensional network. As the N—H⋯Br hydrogen bonds are shorter than the C—H⋯Br inter­actions, they have a larger effect on the packing.

Finally, π–π stacking inter­actions lead to the formation of the three-dimensional structure. The supra­molecular analysis was supported by Hirshfeld surface and two-dimensional fingerprint plot analysis, indicating that the most abundant contacts are associated with H⋯H, O⋯H/H⋯O, N⋯H/H⋯N and C⋯H/H⋯C inter­actions.

The quinoxaline moiety in the title mol­ecule, C13H13ClN2O3, is almost planar (r.m.s. deviation of the fitted atoms = 0.033 Å). In the crystal, C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds plus slipped π-stacking and C—H⋯π(ring) inter­actions generate chains of mol­ecules extending along the b-axis direction.

Synthesis, crystal structure and Hirshfeld surface analysis of bromido­tetra­kis­[5-(prop-2-en-1-yl­sulf­an­yl)-1,3,4-thia­diazol-2-amine-κN3]copper(II) bromide

A novel cationic complex, bromido­tetra­kis­[5-(prop-2-en-1-ylsulfan­yl)-1,3,4-thia­diazol-2-amine-κN3]copper(II) bromide, [CuBr](C5H7N3S2)4Br, was synthesized. The complex crystallizes with fourfold mol­ecular symmetry in the tetra­gonal space group P4/n. The CuII atom exhibits a square-pyramidal coord­ination geometry. The Cu atom is located centrally within the complex, being coordinated by four nitro­gen atoms from four AAT mol­ecules, while a bromine anion is located at the apex of the pyramid. The amino H atoms of AAT inter­act with bromine from the inner and outer spheres, forming a two-dimensional network in the [100] and [010] directions. Hirshfeld surface analysis reveals that 33.7% of the inter­mol­ecular inter­actions are from H⋯H contacts, 21.2% are from S⋯H/H⋯S contacts, 13.4% are from S⋯S contacts and 11.0% are from C⋯H/H⋯C, while other contributions are from Br⋯H/H⋯Br and N⋯H/H⋯N contacts.

In the title compound, C20H17BrO5S, mol­ecules are connected by inter­molecular C—H⋯S hydrogen bonds with R22(10) ring motifs, forming ribbons along the b-axis direction. C—H⋯π inter­actions consolidate the ribbon structure while van der Waals forces between the ribbons ensure the cohesion of the crystal structure.

Crystal structure and Hirshfeld surface analysis of 5-hy­droxy­penta­nehydrazide

Carb­oxy­hydrazides are widely used in medicinal chemistry because of their medicinal properties and many drugs have been developed containing this functional group. A suitable inter­mediate to obtain potential hydrazide drug candidates is the title compound 5-hy­droxy­penta­nehydrazide, C5H12N2O2 (1). The aliphatic compound can react both via the hydroxyl and hydrazide moieties forming derivatives, which can inhibit Mycobacterium tuberculosis catalase-peroxidase (KatG) and consequently causes death of the pathogen. In this work, the hydrazide was obtained via a reaction of a lactone with hydrazine hydrate. The colourless prismatic single crystals belong to the ortho­rhom­bic space group Pca21. Regarding supra­molecular inter­actions, the compound shows classic medium to strong inter­molecular hydrogen bonds involving the hydroxyl and hydrazide groups. Besides, the three-dimensional packing also shows weak H⋯H and C⋯H contacts, as investigated by Hirshfeld surface analysis (HS) and fingerprint plots (FP).

Synthesis, crystal structure and Hirshfeld analysis of N-ethyl-2-{3-methyl-2-[(2Z)-pent-2-en-1-yl]cyclo­pent-2-en-1-yl­idene}hydrazinecarbo­thio­amide

The title compound (C14H23N3S, common name: cis-jasmone 4-ethyl­thio­semicarbazone) was synthesized by the equimolar reaction of cis-jasmone and 4-ethyl­thio­semicarbazide in ethanol facilitated by acid catalysis. There is one crystallographically independent mol­ecule in the asymmetric unit, which shows disorder of the terminal ethyl group of the jasmone carbon chain [site-occupancy ratio = 0.911 (5):0.089 (5)]. The thio­semicarbazone entity [N—N—C(=S)—N] is approximately planar, with the maximum deviation of the mean plane through the N/N/C/S/N atoms being 0.0331 (8) Å, while the maximum deviation of the mean plane through the five-membered ring of the jasmone fragment amounts to −0.0337 (8) Å. The dihedral angle between the two planes is 4.98 (7)°. The mol­ecule is not planar due to this structural feature and the sp3-hybridized atoms of the jasmone carbon chain. Additionally, one H⋯N intra­molecular inter­action is observed, with graph-set motif S(5). In the crystal, the mol­ecules are connected through pairs of H⋯S inter­actions with R22(8) and R21(7) graph-set motifs into centrosymmetric dimers. The dimers are further connected by H⋯N inter­actions with graph-set motif R22(12), which are related by an inversion centre, forming a mono-periodic hydrogen-bonded ribbon parallel to the b-axis. The crystal structure and the supra­molecular assembly of the title compound are compared with four known cis-jasmone thio­semicarbazone derivatives (two crystalline modifications of the non-substituted form, the 4-methyl and the 4-phenyl derivatives). A Hirshfeld surface analysis indicates that the major contributions for the crystal cohesion are from H⋯H (70.7%), H⋯S/S⋯H (13.5%), H⋯C/C⋯H (8.8%), and H⋯N/N⋯H (6.6%) inter­faces (only the disordered atoms with the highest s.o.f. were considered for the evaluation).

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

Reaction of Co(NCS)2 with 2-methyl­pyridine N-oxide in a 1:3 ratio in n-butanol leads to the formation of crystals of tris­(2-methyl­pyridine N-oxide-κO)bis­(thio­cyanato-κN)cobalt(II), [Co(NCS)2(C6H7NO)3]. The asymmetric unit of the title compound consists of one CoII cation two thio­cyanate anions and three crystallographically independent 2-methyl­pyridine N-oxide coligands in general positions. The CoII cations are trigonal–bipyramidally coordinated by two terminal N-bonding thio­cyanate anions in the trans-positions and three 2-methyl­pyridine N-oxide coligands into discrete complexes. These complexes are linked by inter­molecular C–H⋯S inter­actions into double chains that elongate in the c-axis direction. Powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD) measurements prove that all batches are always contaminated with an additional and unknown crystalline phase. Thermogravimetry and differential analysis of crystals selected by hand reveal that the title compound decomposes at about 229°C in an exothermic reaction. At about 113°C a small endothermic signal is observed that, according to differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) measurements, is irreversible. PXRD measurements of the residue prove that a poorly crystalline and unknown phase has formed and thermomicroscopy indicates that some phase transition occurs that is accompanied with a color change of the title compound.

Reaction of Co(NCS)2 with 4-methyl­pyridine N-oxide in methanol leads to the formation of crystals of the title compound, [Co2(NCS)4(C6H7NO)4(CH4O)2] or Co2(NCS)4(4-methyl­pyridine N-oxide)4(methanol)2. The asymmetric unit consist of one CoII cation, two thio­cyanate anions, two 4-methyl­pyridine N-oxide coligands and one methanol mol­ecule in general positions. The H atoms of one of the methyl groups are disordered and were refined using a split model. The CoII cations octa­hedrally coordinate two terminal N-bonded thio­cyanate anions, three 4-methyl­pyridine N-oxide coligands and one methanol mol­ecule. Each two CoII cations are linked by pairs of μ-1,1(O,O)-bridging 4-methyl­pyridine N-oxide coligands into dinuclear units that are located on centers of inversion. Powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD) investigations prove that the title compound is contaminated with a small amount of Co(NCS)2(4-meth­yl­pyridine N-oxide)3. Thermogravimetric investigations reveal that the methanol mol­ecules are removed in the beginning, leading to a compound with the composition Co(NCS)2(4-methyl­pyridine N-oxide), which has been reported in the literature and which is of poor crystallinity.

The mol­ecule comprises a naphthalene ring system bearing an acetyl group (C-3), an amino group (C-7), and a nitro group (C-8).

The benzimidazole entity of the title mol­ecule, C17H21N5O, is almost planar (r.m.s. deviation = 0.0262 Å). In the crystal, bifurcated C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds link individual mol­ecules into layers extending parallel to the ac plane. Two weak C—H⋯π(ring) inter­actions may also be effective in the stabilization of the crystal structure. Hirshfeld surface analysis of the crystal structure reveals that the most important contributions for the crystal packing are from H⋯H (57.9%), H⋯C/C⋯H (18.1%) and H⋯O/O⋯H (14.9%) inter­actions. Hydrogen bonding and van der Waals inter­actions are the most dominant forces in the crystal packing. Evaluation of the electrostatic, dispersion and total energy frameworks indicate that the stabilization of the title compound is dominated via dispersion energy contributions.

Structural characterization and comparative analysis of polymorphic forms of psilocin (4-hy­droxy-N,N-di­methyl­tryptamine)

The title compound, C12H16N2O, is a hy­droxy-substituted mono­amine alkaloid, and the primary metabolite of the naturally occurring psychedelic compound psilocybin. Crystalline forms of psilocin are known, but their characterization by single-crystal structure analysis is limited. Herein, two anhydrous polymorphic forms (I and II) of psilocin are described. The crystal structure of polymorphic Form I, in space group P21/c, was first reported in 1974. Along with the redeterm­ination to modern standards and unambiguous location of the acidic H atom and variable-temperature single-crystal unit-cell determinations for Form I, the Form II polymorph of the title compound, which crystallizes in the monoclinic space group P21/n, is described for the first time. The psilocin mol­ecules are present in both forms in their phenol–amine tautomeric forms (not resolved in the 1974 report). The mol­ecules in Forms I and II, however, feature different conformations of their N,N-dimethyl ethyl­ene substituent, with the N—C—C—C link in Form I being trans and in Form II being gauche, allowing the latter to bend back to the hydroxyl group of the same mol­ecule, leading to the formation of a strong intra­molecular O—H⋯N hydrogen bond between the hydroxyl moiety and ethyl­amino-nitro­gen group. In the extended structure of Form II, the mol­ecules form one-dimensional strands through N—H⋯O hydrogen bonds from the indole group to the oxygen atom of the hydroxyl moiety of an adjacent mol­ecule. Form II exhibits whole-mol­ecule disorder due to a pseudo-mirror operation, with an occupancy ratio of 0.689 (5):0.311 (5) for the two components. In contrast, Form I does not feature intra­molecular hydrogen bonds but forms a layered structure through inter­molecular N—H⋯O and O—H⋯N hydrogen bonds.

The crystal structures and Hirshfeld surface analysis of three new bromo-substituted 3-methyl-1-(phenyl­sulfon­yl)-1H-indole derivatives

Three new 1H-indole derivatives, namely, 2-(bromo­meth­yl)-3-methyl-1-(phenyl­sulfon­yl)-1H-indole, C16H14BrNO2S, (I), 2-[(E)-2-(2-bromo-5-meth­oxy­phen­yl)ethen­yl]-3-methyl-1-(phenyl­sulfon­yl)-1H-indole, C24H20BrNO3S, (II), and 2-[(E)-2-(2-bromo­phen­yl)ethen­yl]-3-methyl-1-(phenyl­sulfon­yl)-1H-indole, C23H18BrNO2S, (III), exhibit nearly orthogonal orientations of their indole ring systems and sulfonyl-bound phenyl rings. Such conformations are favourable for inter­molecular bonding involving sets of slipped π–π inter­actions between the indole systems and mutual C—H⋯π hydrogen bonds, with the generation of two-dimensional monoperiodic patterns. The latter are found in all three structures, in the form of supra­molecular columns with every pair of successive mol­ecules related by inversion. The crystal packing of the compounds is additionally stabilized by weaker slipped π–π inter­actions between the outer phenyl rings (in II and III) and by weak C—H⋯O, C—H⋯Br and C—H⋯π hydrogen bonds. The structural significance of the different kinds of inter­actions agree with the results of a Hirshfeld surface analysis and the calculated inter­action energies. In particular, the largest inter­action energies (up to −60.8 kJ mol−1) are associated with pairing of anti­parallel indole systems, while the energetics of weak hydrogen bonds and phenyl π–π inter­actions are comparable and account for 13–34 kJ mol−1.

Synthesis, crystal structure and thermal properties of a new polymorphic modification of diiso­thio­cyanato­tetra­kis­(4-methyl­pyridine)cobalt(II)

The title compound, [Co(NCS)2(C6H7N)4] or Co(NCS)2(4-methyl­pyridine)4, was prepared by the reaction of Co(NCS)2 with 4-methyl­pyridine in water and is isotypic to one of the polymorphs of Ni(NCS)2(4-methyl­pyridine)4 [Kerr & Williams (1977). Acta Cryst. B33, 3589–3592 and Soldatov et al. (2004). Cryst. Growth Des. 4, 1185–1194]. Comparison of the experimental X-ray powder pattern with that calculated from the single-crystal data proves that a pure phase has been obtained. The asymmetric unit consists of one CoII cation, two crystallographically independent thio­cyanate anions and four independent 4-meth­yl­pyridine ligands, all located in general positions. The CoII cations are sixfold coordinated to two terminally N-bonded thio­cyanate anions and four 4-methyl­pyridine coligands within slightly distorted octa­hedra. Between the complexes, a number of weak C—H⋯N and C—H⋯S contacts are found. This structure represent a polymorphic modification of Co(NCS)2(4-methyl­pyridine)4 already reported in the CCD [Harris et al. (2003). NASA Technical Reports, 211890]. In contrast to this form, the crystal structure of the new polymorph shows a denser packing, indicating that it is thermodynamically stable at least at low temperatures. Thermogravimetric and differential thermoanalysis reveal that the title compound starts to decomposes at about 100°C and that the coligands are removed in separate steps without any sign of a polymorphic transition before decomposition.
