The asymmetric unit of the title com­pound, catena-poly[[[(perchlorato-κO)copper(II)]-μ-3-(3-carb­oxy­prop­yl)-1,5,8,12-tetra­aza-3-azonia­cyclo­tetra­decane-κ4N1,N5,N8,N12] bis­(per­chlorate)], {[Cu(C13H30N5O2)(ClO4)](ClO4)2}n, (I), consists of a macrocyclic cation, one coordinated per­chlorate anion and two per­chlorate ions as counter-anions. The metal ion is coordinated in a tetra­gonally distorted octa­hedral geometry by the four secondary N atoms of the macrocyclic ligand, the mutually trans O atoms of the per­chlorate anion and the carbonyl O atom of the protonated carb­oxy­lic acid group of a neighbouring cation. The average equatorial Cu—N bond lengths [2.01 (6) Å] are significantly shorter than the axial Cu—O bond lengths [2.379 (8) Å for carboxyl­ate and average 2.62 (7) Å for disordered per­chlorate]. The coordinated macrocyclic ligand in (I) adopts the most energetically favourable trans-III conformation with an equatorial orientation of the substituent at the protonated distal 3-position N atom in a six-membered chelate ring. The coordination of the carb­oxy­lic acid group of the cation to a neighbouring com­plex unit results in the formation of infinite chains running along the b-axis direction, which are cross­linked by N—H⋯O hydrogen bonds between the secondary amine groups of the macrocycle and O atoms of the per­chlorate counter-anions to form sheets lying parallel to the (001) plane. Additionally, the extended structure of (I) is consolidated by numerous intra- and interchain C—H⋯O contacts.

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.

A zinc metal–organic framework, namely poly[bis­(N,N-di­ethyl­formamide)(μ4-naphthalene-2,6-di­carboxyl­ato)(μ2-naphthalene-2,6-di­carboxyl­ato)dizinc(II)], [Zn(C12H6O4)(C15H11NO)]n, built from windmill-type secondary building units and forming zigzag shaped two-dimensional stacked layers, has been solvothermally synthesized from naphthalene-2,6-di­carb­oxy­lic acid and zinc(II) acetate as the metal source in N,N-di­ethyl­formamide containing small amounts of formic acid.

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.

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.

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.

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 non-porous three-dimensional structure of poly[(μ5-2-amino­benzene-1,4-di­carboxyl­ato)(μ6-oxalato)(oxomium)europium(III)], [Eu(C8H5NO4)(C2O4)(H3O)]n or [EuIII(NH2–BDC)(ox)(H3O)]n (NH2–BDC2− = 2-amino­terephthalate and ox2− = oxalate) is constructed from two-dimensional layers of EuIII–carboxyl­ate–oxalate, which are connected by NH2–BDC2− pillars. The basic structural unit of the layer is an edge-sharing dimer of TPRS-{EuIIIO9}, which is assembled through the ox2− moiety. The intra­layer void is partially occupied by TPR-{EuIIIO6} motifs. Weak C—H⋯O and strong, classical intra­molecular N—H⋯O and inter­molecular O—H⋯O hydrogen-bonding inter­actions, as well as weak π–π stacking inter­actions, affix the organic pillars within the framework. The two-dimensional layer can be simplified to a uninodal 4-connected sql/Shubnikov tetra­gonal plane net with point symbol {44.62}.

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.

In the paper by Gomes et al. [Acta Cryst. (2019), E75, 1403–1410], there was an error and omission in the author and affiliation list.

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%).

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.

The solid-state structures of two cobalt–pyridine–sulfate compounds, namely catena-poly[[tetra­kis­(pyridine-κN)cobalt(II)]-μ-sulfato-κ2O:O'], [Co(SO4)(C5H5N)4]n, (1), and catena-poly[[tetra­kis­(pyridine-κN)cobalt(II)]-μ-sulfato-κ3O:O',O''-[bis­(pyridine-κN)cobalt(II)]-μ-sulfato-κ3O,O':O'']n, [Co2(SO4)2(C5H5N)6]n, (2), are reported. Compound (1) displays a polymeric structure, with infinite chains of CoII cations adopting octa­hedral N4O2 coordination environments that involve four pyridine ligands and two bridging sulfate ions. Compound (2) is also polymeric with infinite chains of CoII cations. The first Co center has an octa­hedral N4O2 coordination environment that involves four pyridine ligands and two bridging sulfate ligands. The second Co center has an octa­hedral N2O4 coordination environment that involves two pyridine ligands and two bridging sulfate ions that chelate the Co atom. The structure of (2) was refined as a two-component inversion twin.

The structure of the jatrophane diterpenoid (ES2), C46H56O15, has ortho­rhom­bic (P212121) symmetry. The absolute configuration in the crystal has been determined as 2R,3R,4S,5R,7S,8S,9S,13S,14S,15R [the Flack parameter is −0.06 (11)]. The mol­ecular structure features intra­molecular O—H⋯O and C—H⋯O hydrogen bonding. In the crystal, C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds link the mol­ecules into supra­molecular columns parallel to the a axis. One of the acet­oxy substituents is disordered over two orientations in a 0.826 (8):0.174 (8) ratio.

The title compound, [FePt(C12H12O)(C18H15P)(C25H22P2)(CO)2]·2C7H8·CH2Cl2 or [(OC)2Fe(μ-dppm)(μ-C(=O)C(2,4,5-C6H2Me3)=CH)Pt(PPh3)], represents an example of a diphosphane-bridged heterobimetallic dimetalla­cyclo­pentenone complex resulting from a bimetallic activation of 1-ethynyl-2,4,5-tri­methyl­benzene and a metal-coordinated carbonyl ligand. The bridging μ2-C(=O)C(2,4,5-C6H2Me3)=CH unit (stemming from a carbon–carbon coupling reaction between CO and the terminal alkyne) forms a five-membered dimetalla­cyclo­pentenone ring, in which the C=C bond is π-coordinated to the Fe centre. The latter is connected to the Pt centre through a short metal–metal bond of 2.5770 (5) Å. In the crystal, the complex is solvated by one di­chloro­methane and two toluene mol­ecules.

The title compound, C15H22N4O5S, was prepared via alkyl­ation of 3-(chloro­meth­yl)-5-(pentan-3-yl)-1,2,4-oxa­diazole in anhydrous dioxane in the presence of tri­ethyl­amine. The thia­diazine ring has an envelope conformation with the S atom displaced by 0.4883 (6) Å from the mean plane through the other five atoms. The planar 1,2,4-oxa­diazole ring is inclined to the mean plane of the thia­diazine ring by 77.45 (11)°. In the crystal, mol­ecules are linked by C—H⋯N hydrogen bonds, forming chains propagating along the b-axis direction. Hirshfeld surface analysis and two-dimensional fingerprint plots have been used to analyse the inter­molecular contacts present in the crystal. Mol­ecular docking studies were use to evaluate the title compound as a potential system that inter­acts effectively with the capsid of the Hepatitis B virus (HBV), supported by an experimental in vitro HBV replication model.

Three title compounds, namely, 2-(4-chloro­benz­yl)-5-[(1H-indol-3-yl)meth­yl]-6-phenyl­imidazo[2,1-b][1,3,4]thia­diazole, C26H19ClN4S, (I), 2-(4-chloro­benz­yl)-6-(4-fluoro­phen­yl)-5-[(1H-indol-3-yl)meth­yl]imidazo[2,1-b][1,3,4]thia­diazole, C26H18ClFN4S, (II), and 6-(4-bromo­phen­yl)-2-(4-chloro­benz­yl)-5-[(1H-indol-3-yl)meth­yl]imidazo[2,1-b][1,3,4]thia­diazole, C26H18BrClN4S, (III), have been prepared using a reductive condensation of indole with the corresponding 6-aryl-2-(4-chloro­benz­yl)imidazo[2,1-b][1,3,4]thia­diazole-5-carbaldehydes (aryl = phenyl, 4-fluoro­phenyl or 4-bromo­phen­yl), and their crystal structures have been determined. The asymmetric unit of compound (I) consists of two independent mol­ecules and one of the mol­ecules exhibits disorder of the 4-chloro­benzyl substituent with occupancies 0.6289 (17) and 0.3711 (17). Each type of mol­ecule forms a C(8) chain motif built from N—H⋯N hydrogen bonds, which for the fully ordered mol­ecule is reinforced by C—H⋯π inter­actions. In compound (II), the chloro­benzyl unit is again disordered, with occupancies 0.822 (6) and 0.178 (6), and the mol­ecules form C(8) chains similar to those in (I), reinforced by C—H⋯π inter­actions involving only the major disorder component. The chloro­benzyl unit in compound (III) is also disordered with occupancies of 0.839 (5) and 0.161 (5). The mol­ecules are linked by a combination of one N—H⋯N hydrogen bond and four C—H⋯π inter­actions, forming a three-dimensional framework.

The complete mol­ecule of the binuclear title complex, bis­[μ-1H-1,2,4-triazole-5(4H)-thione-κ2S:S]bis­{(thio­cyanato-κS)[1H-1,2,4-triazole-5(4H)-thione-κS]silver(I)}, [Ag2(SCN)2(C2H3N3S)4], is generated by crystallographic inversion symmetry. The independent triazole-3-thione ligands employ the exocyclic-S atoms exclusively in coordination. One acts as a terminal S-ligand and the other in a bidentate (μ2) bridging mode to provide a link between two AgI centres. Each AgI atom is also coordinated by a terminal S-bound thio­cyanate ligand, resulting in a distorted AgS4 tetra­hedral coordination geometry. An intra­molecular N—H⋯S(thio­cyanate) hydrogen bond is noted. In the crystal, amine-N—H⋯S(thione), N—H⋯N(triazol­yl) and N—H⋯N(thio­cyanate) hydrogen bonds give rise to a three-dimensional architecture. The packing is consolidated by triazolyl-C—H⋯S(thio­cyanate), triazolyl-C—H⋯N(thiocyanate) and S⋯S [3.2463 (9) Å] inter­actions as well as face-to-face π–π stacking between the independent triazolyl rings [inter-centroid separation = 3.4444 (15) Å]. An analysis of the calculated Hirshfeld surfaces shows the three major contributors are due to N⋯H/H⋯N, S⋯H/H⋯S and C⋯H/H⋯C contacts, at 35.8, 19.4 and 12.7%, respectively; H⋯H contacts contribute only 7.6% to the overall surface.

Each central platinum(II) atom in the crystal structures of chlorido­[dihy­droxybis­(1-imino­eth­oxy)arsanido-κ3N,As,N']platinum(II), [Pt(C4H10AsN2O4)Cl] (1), and of chlorido­[dihy­droxybis­(1-imino­prop­oxy)arsanido-κ3N,As,N']platinum(II), [Pt(C6H14AsN2O4)Cl] (2), is coordinated by two nitro­gen donor atoms, a chlorido ligand and to arsenic, which, in turn, is coordinated by two oxygen donor ligands, two hydroxyl ligands and the platinum(II) atom. The square-planar and trigonal–bipyramidal coordination environments around platinum and arsenic, respectively, are significantly distorted with the largest outliers being 173.90 (13) and 106.98 (14)° for platinum and arsenic in (1), and 173.20 (14)° and 94.20 (9)° for (2), respectively. One intra­molecular and four classical inter­molecular hydrogen-bonding inter­actions are observed in the crystal structure of (1), which give rise to an infinite three-dimensional network. A similar situation (one intra­molecular and four classical inter­molecular hydrogen-bonding inter­actions) is observed in the crystal structure of (2). Various π-inter­actions are present in (1) between the platinum(II) atom and the centroid of one of the five-membered rings formed by Pt, As, C, N, O with a distance of 3.7225 (7) Å, and between the centroids of five-membered (Pt, As, C, N, O) rings of neighbouring mol­ecules with distances of 3.7456 (4) and 3.7960 (6) Å. Likewise, weak π-inter­actions are observed in (2) between the platinum(II) atom and the centroid of one of the five-membered rings formed by Pt, As, C, N, O with a distance of 3.8213 (2) Å, as well as between the Cl atom and the centroid of a symmetry-related five-membered ring with a distance of 3.8252 (12) Å. Differences between (2) and the reported polymorph [Miodragović et al. (2013). Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. 52, 10749–10752] are discussed.

The title compound [systematic name: (1R*, 8S)-2-acetamidoocta­hydro­pyrrol­izin-4-ium chloride–N-[(1R, 8S)-hexa­hydro-1H-pyrrolizin-2-yl)acetamide (1/1)], 2(C9H16N2O)·HCl or C9H17N2O+·Cl−·C9H16N2O, arose as an unexpected product when 1-exo-acetamido­pyrrolizidine (AcAP; C9H16N2O) was dissolved in CHCl3. Within the AcAP pyrrolizidine group, the unsubstituted five-membered ring is disordered over two orientations in a 0.897 (5):0.103 (5) ratio. Two AcAP mol­ecules related by a crystallographic twofold axis link to H+ and Cl− ions lying on the rotation axis, thereby forming N—H⋯N and N—H⋯Cl⋯H—N hydrogen bonds. The first of these has an unusually short N⋯N separation of 2.616 (2) Å: refinement of different models against the present data set could not distinguish between a symmetrical hydrogen bond (H atom lying on the twofold axis and equidistant from the N atoms) or static or dynamic disorder models (i.e. N—H⋯N + N⋯H—N). Computational studies suggest that the disorder model is slightly more stable, but the energy difference is very small.

Two new chalcones containing both pyrazole and thio­phene substituents have been prepared and structurally characterized. 3-(3-Methyl-5-phen­oxy-1-phenyl-1H-pyrazol-4-yl)-1-(thio­phen-2-yl)prop-2-en-1-one, C23H18N2O2S (I), and 3-[3-methyl-5-(2-methyl­phen­oxy)-1-phenyl-1H-pyrazol-4-yl]-1-(thio­phen-2-yl)prop-2-en-1-one, C24H20N2O2S (II), are isomorphous as well as isostructural, and in each the thio­phene substituent is disordered over two sets of atomic sites having occupancies 0.844 (3) and 0.156 (3) in (I), and 0.883 (2) and 0.117 (2) in (II). In each structure, the mol­ecules are linked into sheets by a combination of C—H⋯N and C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds. Comparisons are made with some related compounds.

In 2,2,5-trimethyl-1,3-dioxane-5-carb­oxy­lic acid, C8H14O4, the carboxyl group occupies an equatorial position on the 1,3-dioxane ring. In the crystal, O—H⋯O hydrogen bonds form chains of mol­ecules, which are linked into a three-dimensional network by C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds. The asymmetric unit of 2,2,5-trimethyl-1,3-dioxane-5-carb­oxy­lic anhydride, C16H26O7, consists of two independent mol­ecules, which are linked by C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds. In the crystal, these units are connected into corrugated layers two mol­ecules thick and parallel to the ab plane by additional C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds.

The equimolar reaction between a racemic mixture of (R)- and (S)-camphorquinone with thio­semicarbazide yielded the title compound, C11H17N3OS [common name: (R)- and (S)-camphor thio­semicarbazone], which maintains the chirality of the methyl­ated chiral carbon atoms and crystallizes in the centrosymmetric space group C2/c. There are two mol­ecules in general positions in the asymmetric unit, one of them being the (1R)-camphor thio­semicarbazone isomer and the second the (1S)- isomer. In the crystal, the mol­ecular units are linked by C—H⋯S, N—H⋯O and N—H⋯S inter­actions, building a tape-like structure parallel to the (overline{1}01) plane, generating R21(7) and R22(8) graph-set motifs for the H⋯S inter­actions. The Hirshfeld surface analysis indicates that the major contributions for crystal cohesion are from H⋯H (55.00%), H⋯S (22.00%), H⋯N (8.90%) and H⋯O (8.40%) inter­actions.

A mixed alkaline-earth powellite, Ca0.84Sr0.16MoO4 (calcium strontium molybdate), was synthesized by a flux method and its crystal structure was solved using single-crystal X-ray diffraction (SC-XRD) data. The compound crystallized in the I41/a space group as with a typical CaMoO4 powellite, but with larger unit-cell parameters and unit-cell volume as a result of the partial incorporation of larger Sr cations into the Ca sites within the crystal. The unit cell and volume were well fitted with the trendline calculated from literature values, and the powder X-ray diffraction (P-XRD) pattern of the ground crystal is in good agreement with the calculated pattern from the solved structure.

The reaction of N-phenyl-1-(pyridin-2-yl)methanimine with copper chloride dihydrate produced the title neutral complex, [CuCl2(C12H10N2)(H2O)]·H2O. The CuII ion is five-coordinated in a distorted square-pyramidal geometry, in which the two N atoms of the bidentate Schiff base, as well as one chloro and a water mol­ecule, form the irregular base of the pyramidal structure. Meanwhile, the apical chloride ligand inter­acts through a strong hydrogen bond with a water mol­ecule of crystallization. In the crystal, mol­ecules are arranged in pairs, forming a stacking of symmetrical cyclic dimers that inter­act in turn through strong hydrogen bonds between the chloride ligands and both the coordinated and the crystallization water mol­ecules. The mol­ecular and electronic structures of the complex were also studied in detail using EPR (continuous and pulsed), FT–IR and Raman spectroscopy, as well as magnetization measurements. Likewise, Hirshfeld surface analysis was used to investigate the inter­molecular inter­actions in the crystal packing.

The crystal and mol­ecular structures of the title organotin di­thio­carbamate compounds, [Sn(C6H5)3(C7H10NS2)] (I) and [Sn(C6H5)2(C7H10NS2)2] (II), present very distinct tin atom coordination geometries. In (I), the di­thio­carbamate ligand is asymmetrically coordinating with the resulting C3S2 donor set defining a coordination geometry inter­mediate between square-pyramidal and trigonal–bipyramidal. In (II), two independent mol­ecules comprise the asymmetric unit, which differ in the conformations of the allyl substituents and in the relative orientations of the tin-bound phenyl rings. The di­thio­carbamate ligands in (II) coordinate in an asymmetric mode but the Sn—S bonds are more symmetric than observed in (I). The resulting C2S4 donor set approximates an octa­hedral coordination geometry with a cis-disposition of the ipso-carbon atoms and with the more tightly bound sulfur atoms approximately trans. The only directional inter­molecular contacts in the crystals of (I) and (II) are of the type phenyl-C—H⋯π(phen­yl) and vinyl­idene-C—H⋯π(phen­yl), respectively, with each leading to a supra­molecular chain propagating along the a-axis direction. The calculated Hirshfeld surfaces emphasize the importance of H⋯H contacts in the crystal of (I), i.e. contributing 62.2% to the overall surface. The only other two significant contacts also involve hydrogen, i.e. C⋯H/H⋯C (28.4%) and S⋯H/H⋯S (8.6%). Similar observations pertain to the individual mol­ecules of (II), which are clearly distinguishable in their surface contacts, with H⋯H being clearly dominant (59.9 and 64.9%, respectively) along with C⋯H/H⋯C (24.3 and 20.1%) and S⋯H/H⋯S (14.4 and 13.6%) contacts. The calculations of energies of inter­action suggest dispersive forces make a significant contribution to the stabilization of the crystals. The exception is for the C—H⋯π contacts in (II) where, in addition to the dispersive contribution, significant contributions are made by the electrostatic forces.

The structure of the title quinoline carboxamide derivative, C26H25N3O, is described. The quinoline moiety is not planar as a result of a slight puckering of the pyridine ring. The secondary amine has a slightly pyramidal geometry, certainly not planar. Both intra- and inter­molecular hydrogen bonds are present. Hirshfeld surface analysis and lattice energies were used to investigate the inter­molecular inter­actions.

A copper(II) dimer with the deprotonated anion of 2-bromo­nicotinic acid (2-BrnicH), namely, tetrakis(μ-2-bromonicotinato-κ2O:O')bis[aquacopper(­II)](Cu—Cu), [Cu2(H2O)2(C6H3BrNO2)4] or [Cu2(H2O)2(2-Brnic)4], (1), was prepared by the reaction of copper(II) chloride dihydrate and 2-bromo­nicotinic acid in water. The copper(II) ion in 1 has a distorted square-pyramidal coordination environment, achieved by four carboxyl­ate O atoms in the basal plane and the water mol­ecule in the apical position. The pair of symmetry-related copper(II) ions are connected into a centrosymmetric paddle-wheel dinuclear cluster [Cu⋯Cu = 2.6470 (11) Å] via four O,O'-bridging 2-bromo­nicotinate ligands in the syn-syn coordination mode. In the extended structure of 1, the cluster mol­ecules are assembled into an infinite two-dimensional hydrogen-bonded network lying parallel to the (001) plane via strong O—H⋯O and O—H⋯N hydrogen bonds, leading to the formation of various hydrogen-bond ring motifs: dimeric R22(8) and R22(16) loops and a tetra­meric R44(16) loop. The Hirshfeld surface analysis was also performed in order to better illustrate the nature and abundance of the inter­molecular contacts in the structure of 1.

The title compound, C7H3F5INS, a penta­fluoro­sulfanyl (SF5) containing arene, was synthesized from 4-(penta­fluoro­sulfan­yl)benzo­nitrile and lithium tetra­methyl­piperidide following a variation to the standard approach, which features simple and mild conditions that allow direct access to tri-substituted SF5 inter­mediates that have not been demonstrated using previous methods. The mol­ecule displays a planar geometry with the benzene ring in the same plane as its three substituents. It lies on a mirror plane perpendicular to [010] with the iodo, cyano, and the sulfur and axial fluorine atoms of the penta­fluoro­sulfanyl substituent in the plane of the mol­ecule. The equatorial F atoms have symmetry-related counterparts generated by the mirror plane. The penta­fluoro­sulfanyl group exhibits a staggered fashion relative to the ring and the two hydrogen atoms ortho to the substituent. S—F bond lengths of the penta­fluoro­sulfanyl group are unequal: the equatorial bond facing the iodo moiety has a longer distance [1.572 (3) Å] and wider angle compared to that facing the side of the mol­ecules with two hydrogen atoms [1.561 (4) Å]. As expected, the axial S—F bond is the longest [1.582 (5) Å]. In the crystal, in-plane C—H⋯F and N⋯I inter­actions as well as out-of-plane F⋯C inter­actions are observed. According to the Hirshfeld analysis, the principal inter­molecular contacts for the title compound are F⋯H (29.4%), F⋯I (15.8%), F⋯N (11.4%), F⋯F (6.0%), N⋯I (5.6%) and F⋯C (4.5%).

The title compound, {[Ba7(C3H5O2)14]·0.946C3H6O2·4H2O}n, is represented by a metal–organic framework structure that is held together by Ba—O—Ba bonds, as well as by O—H⋯O hydrogen bonds of moderate strength. The structure comprises of four independent Ba2+ cations (one of which is situated on a twofold rotation axis), seven independent propionate and two independent water mol­ecules. The bond-valence sums of all the cations indicate a slight overbonding. There is also an occupationally, as well as a positionally disordered propionic acid mol­ecule present in the structure. Its occupation is slightly lower than the full occupation while the disordered mol­ecules occupy two positions related by a rotation about a twofold rotation axis. In addition, the methyl group in the symmetry-independent propionic acid mol­ecule is also disordered, and occupies two positions. Each propionic acid mol­ecule coordinates to just one cation from a pair of symmetry-equivalent Ba2+ sites and is simultaneously bonded by an O—H⋯Opropionate hydrogen bond. This means that on a microscopic scale, the coordination number of the corresponding Ba2+ site is either 9 or 10. The methyl as well as hy­droxy hydrogen atoms of the disordered propionic acid mol­ecule were not determined.

The pyran­opyran amide (2S,4aR,8aR)-6-oxo-2,4a,6,8a-tetra­hydro­pyrano[3,2-b]pyran-2-carboxamide, C9H9NO4, 3, was prepared by a chemoselective hydration of the corresponding nitrile, 2, using a heterogeneous catalytic method based on copper(II) supported on mol­ecular sieves, in the presence of acetaldoxime. Compound 3 belongs to a new class of pyran­opyrans that possess anti­bacterial and phytotoxic activity. Crystallographic analysis of 3 shows a bent structure for the cis-fused bicyclic pyran­opyran, similar to nitrile 2. Evidence of an intra­molecular hydrogen bond involving the amide group and ring oxygen was not observed; however, two separate inter­molecular hydrogen-bonding inter­actions were observed between the amide hydrogen atoms and adjacent carbonyl oxygen atoms along the b- and a-axis directions. The latter inter­action may also be supported by an inter­molecular C—H⋯O hydrogen bond. The lattice is filled out by close-packed layers of this hydrogen-bonded network along the c-axis direction, related from one to the next by a 21 screw axis.

The crystal structures of 5-bromo-1,3-di-tert-butyl-2-[(tri­methyl­sil­yl)­oxy]benzene, C17H29BrOSi, (I), 1,3-di-tert-butyl-2-[(tri­methyl­sil­yl)­oxy]benzene, C17H30OSi, (II), and N-(2,6-diiso­propyl­phen­yl)-1,1,1-trimethyl-N-(tri­methyl­sil­yl)silanamine, C18H35NSi2, (III), are reported. Compound (I) crystallizes in space group P21/c with Z' = 1, (II) in Pnma with Z' = 0.5 and (III) in Cmcm with Z' = 0.25. Consequently, the mol­ecules of (II) are constrained by m and those of (III) by m2m site symmetries. Despite this, both (I) and (II) are distorted towards mild boat conformations, as is typical of 2,6-di-tert-butyl-substituted phenyl compounds, reflecting the high local steric pressure of the flanking alkyl groups. Compound (III) by contrast is planar and symmetric, and this lack of distortion is compatible with the lower steric pressure of the flanking 2,6-diisopropyl substituents.

The title compound, C20H36O2·CH3OH [systematic name: (3S)-4-[(S)-3-hy­droxy-3-methyl­pent-4-en-1-yl]-3,4a,8,8-tetra­methyl­deca­hydro­naphthalen-3-ol methanol monosolvate], is a methanol solvate of sclareol, a diterpene oil isolated from the medicinally important medicinal herb Salvia sclarea, commonly known as clary sage. It crystallizes in space group P1 (No. 1) with Z' = 2. The sclareol mol­ecule comprises two trans-fused cyclo­hexane rings, each having an equatorially oriented hydroxyl group, and a 3-methyl­pent-1-en-3-ol side chain. In the crystal, Os—H⋯Os, Os—H⋯Om, Om—H⋯Os and Om—H⋯Om (s = sclareol, m = methanol) hydrogen bonds connect neighboring mol­ecules into infinite [010] chains. The title compound exhibits weak anti-leishmanial activity (IC50 = 66.4 ± 1.0 µM ml−1) against standard miltefosine (IC50 = 25.8 ± 0.2 µM ml−1).

The whole mol­ecule of the cadmium(II) complex, di­iodido­{N,N',N'',N'''-[pyrazine-2,3,5,6-tetra­yltetra­kis­(methyl­ene)]tetra­kis­(N-methyl­aniline)-κ3N2,N1,N6}cadmium(II), [CdI2(C36H40N6)], (I), of the ligand N,N',N'',N'''-[pyrazine-2,3,5,6-tetra­yltetra­kis­(methyl­ene)]tetra­kis­(N-methyl­aniline) (L), is generated by a twofold rotation symmetry; the twofold axis bis­ects the cadmium atom and the nitro­gen atoms of the pyrazine ring. The ligand coordinates in a mono-tridentate manner and the cadmium atom has a fivefold CdN3I2 coordination environment with a distorted shape. In the zinc(II) complex, dichlorido{N,N',N'',N'''-[pyrazine-2,3,5,6-tetra­yltetra­kis­(methyl­ene)]tetra­kis­(N-methyl­aniline)-κ3N2,N1,N6}zinc(II) di­chloro­methane 0.6-solvate, [ZnCl2(C36H40N6)]·0.6CH2Cl2, (II), ligand L also coordinates in a mono-tridentate manner and the zinc atom has a fivefold ZnN3Cl2 coordination environment with a distorted shape. It crystallized as a partial di­chloro­methane solvate. In the crystal of I, the complex mol­ecules are linked by weak C—H⋯I contacts, forming ribbons propagating along [100]. In the crystal of II, the complex mol­ecules are linked by a series of C—H⋯π inter­actions, forming layers lying parallel to the (1overline{1}1) plane. In the crystals of both compounds there are metal–halide⋯π(pyrazine) contacts present. The Hirshfeld analyses confirm the importance of the C—H⋯halide contacts in the crystal packing of both compounds.

Chalcones of type 4-XC6H4C(O)CH=CHC6H4(OCH2CCH)-4, where X = Cl, Br or MeO, have been converted to the corresponding 4,5-di­hydro­pyrazole-1-carbo­thio­amides using a cyclo­condensation reaction with thio­semicarbazide. The chalcones 1-(4-chloro­phen­yl)-3-[4-(prop-2-yn­yloxy)phen­yl]prop-2-en-1-one, C18H13ClO2, (I), and 1-(4-bromo­phen­yl)-3-[4-(prop-2-yn­yloxy)phen­yl]prop-2-en-1-one, C18H13BrO2, (II), are isomorphous, and their mol­ecules are linked into sheets by two independent C—H⋯π(arene) inter­actions, both involving the same aryl ring with one C—H donor approaching each face. In each of the products (RS)-3-(4-chloro­phen­yl)-5-[4-(prop-2-yn­yloxy)phen­yl]-4,5-di­hydro­pyrazole-1-carbo­thio­amide, C19H16ClN3OS, (IV), (RS)-3-(4-bromo­phen­yl)-5-[4-(prop-2-yn­yloxy)phen­yl]-4,5-di­hydro­pyrazole-1-carbo­thio­amide, C19H16BrN3OS, (V), and (RS)-3-(4-meth­oxy­phen­yl)-5-[4-(prop-2-yn­yloxy)phen­yl]-4,5-di­hydro­pyrazole-1-carbo­thio­amide, C20H19N3O2S, (VI), the reduced pyrazole ring adopts an envelope conformation with the C atom bearing the 4-prop-2-yn­yloxy)phenyl substituent, which occupies the axial site, displaced from the plane of the four ring atoms. Compounds (IV) and (V) are isomorphous and their mol­ecules are linked into chains of edge-fused rings by a combination of N—H⋯S and C—H⋯S hydrogen bonds. The mol­ecules of (VI) are linked into sheets by a combination of N—H⋯S, N—H⋯N and C—H⋯π(arene) hydrogen bonds. Comparisons are made with the structures of some related compounds.

Three huntite-type aluminoborates of stoichiometry REAl3(BO3)4 (RE = Tb, Dy and Ho), namely, terbium/dysprosium/holmium trialuminium tetrakis(borate), were synthesized by slow cooling within a K2Mo3O10 flux with spontaneous crystallization. The crystal structures were determined using single-crystal X-ray diffraction (SC-XRD) data. The synthesized borates are isostructural to the huntite [CaMg3(CO3)4] structure and crystallized within the trigonal R32 space group. The structural parameters were compared to literature data of other huntite REAl3(BO3)4 crystals within the R32 space group. All three borates fit well into the trends calculated from the literature data. The unit-cell parameters and volumes increase linearly with larger RE cations whereas the densities decrease. All of the crystals studied were refined as inversion twins.

The title pyrazine dicarboxamide ligand, N2,N3-bis­(quinolin-8-yl)pyrazine-2,3-dicarboxamide (H2L1), C24H16N6O2, has a twisted conformation with the outer quinoline groups being inclined to the central pyrazine ring by 9.00 (6) and 78.67 (5)°, and by 79.94 (4)° to each other. In the crystal, molecules are linked by C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds, forming layers parallel to the (10overline{1}) plane, which are in turn linked by offset π–π inter­actions [inter­centroid distances 3.4779 (9) and 3.6526 (8) Å], forming a supra­molecular three-dimensional structure. Reaction of the ligand H2L1 with Cu(ClO4)2 in aceto­nitrile leads to the formation of the binuclear complex, [μ-(3-{hy­droxy[(quinolin-8-yl)imino]­meth­yl}pyrazin-2-yl)[(quinolin-8-yl)imino]­methano­lato]bis­[diaceto­nitrile­copper(II)] tris­(per­chlor­ate) aceto­nitrile disolvate, [Cu2(C24H15N6O2)(CH3CN)4](ClO4)3·2CH3CN or [Cu2(HL1−)(CH3CN)4](ClO4)3·2CH3CN (I). In the cation of complex I, the ligand coordinates to the copper(II) atoms in a bis-tridentate fashion. A resonance-assisted O—H⋯O hydrogen bond is present in the ligand; the position of this H atom was located in a difference-Fourier map. Both copper(II) atoms are fivefold coordinate, being ligated by three N atoms of the ligand and by the N atoms of two aceto­nitrile mol­ecules. The first copper atom has a perfect square-pyramidal geometry while the second copper atom has a distorted shape. In the crystal, the cation and perchlorate anions are linked by a number of C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds, forming a supra­molecular three-dimensional structure.

In the title compound, [Cu(C16H8Br3N2O)2]·C2H6OS, the CuII atom is tetra­coordinated in a square-planar coordination, being surrounded by two N atoms and two O atoms from two N,O-bidentate (E)-1-[(2,4,6-tri­bromo­phen­yl)diazen­yl]naphthalen-2-olate ligands. The two N atoms and two O atoms around the metal center are trans to each other, with an O—Cu—O bond angle of 177.90 (16)° and a N—Cu—N bond angle of 177.8 (2)°. The average distances between the CuII atom and the coordinated O and N atoms are 1.892 (4) and 1.976 (4) Å, respectively. In the crystal, complexes are linked by C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds and by π–π inter­actions involving adjacent naphthalene ring systems [centroid–centroid distance = 3.679 (4) Å]. The disordered DMSO mol­ecules inter­act weakly with the complex mol­ecules, being positioned in the voids left by the packing arrangement of the square-planar complexes. The DMSO solvent mol­ecule is disordered over two positions with occupancies of 0.70 and 0.30.

A coordination polymer formulated as [Sr(H2BTEC)(H2O)]n (H4BTEC = benzene-1,2,4,5-tetra­carb­oxy­lic acid, C10H6O8), was synthesized hydro­thermally and characterized by single-crystal and powder X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy and thermal analysis. Its crystal structure is made up of a zigzag inorganic chain formed by edge-sharing of [SrO8] polyhedra running along [001]. Adjacent chains are connected to each other via the carboxyl­ate groups of the ligand, resulting in a double-layered network extending parallel to (100). O—H⋯O hydrogen bonds of medium-to-weak strength between the layers consolidate the three-dimensional structure. One of the carb­oxy­lic OH functions was found to be disordered over two sets of sites with half-occupancy.

A new conjugated carbazole chalcone compound, (E)-3-[4-(9,9a-di­hydro-8aH-carbazol-9-yl)phen­yl]-1-(4-nitro­phen­yl)prop-2-en-1-one (CPNC), C27H18N2O3, was synthesized using a Claisen–Schmidt condensation reaction. CPNC crystallizes in the monoclinic non-centrosymmetric space group Cc and adopts an s-cis conformation with respect to the ethyl­enic double bonds (C=O and C=C). The crystal packing features C—H⋯O and C—H⋯π inter­actions whose percentage contribution was qu­anti­fied by Hirshfeld surface analysis. Quantum chemistry calculations including geometrical optimization and mol­ecular electrostatic potential (MEP) were analysed by density functional theory (DFT) with a B3LYP/6–311 G++(d,p) basis set.

The new heterometallic complex, aqua-1κO-bis­(μ2-2-imino­methyl-6-meth­oxy­phenolato-1κ2O1,O6:2κ2O1,N)bis­(thio­cyanato-1κN)calcium(II)copper(II), [CaCu(C8H8NO2)2(NCS)2(H2O)], has been synthesized using a one-pot reaction of copper powder, calcium oxide, o-vanillin and ammonium thio­cyanate in methanol under ambient conditions. The Schiff base ligand (C8H9NO2) is generated in situ from the condensation of o-vanillin and ammonia, which is released from the initial NH4SCN. The title compound consists of a discrete binuclear mol­ecule with a {Cu(μ-O)2Ca} core, in which the Cu⋯Ca distance is 3.4275 (6) Å. The coordination geometries of the four-coordinate copper atom in the [CuN2O2] chromophore and the seven-coordinate calcium atom in the [CaO5N2] chromophore can be described as distorted square planar and penta­gonal bipyramidal, respectively. In the crystal, O—H⋯S hydrogen bonds between the coordinating water mol­ecules and thio­cyanate groups form a supra­molecular chain with a zigzag-shaped calcium skeleton.

The asymmetric units of the title compounds, namely, catena-poly[[(1,4,8,11-tetra­aza­cyclo­tetra­decane-κ4N1,N4,N8,N11)nickel(II)]-μ-1,3-bis­(3-carboxyl­ato­prop­yl)tetra­methyl­disiloxane-κ2O:O'], [Ni(C10H24O5Si2)(C12H24N4)]n (I), and catena-poly[[[(1,4,8,11-tetra­aza­cyclo­tetra­decane-κ4N1,N4,N8,N11)nickel(II)]-μ-4-({[(3-carb­oxy­prop­yl)di­methyl­sil­yl]­oxy}di­methyl­sil­yl)butano­ato-κ2O:O'] per­chlorate], {[Ni(C10H25O5Si2)(C12H24N4)]ClO4}n (II), consist of one (in I) or two crystallographically non-equivalent (in II) centrosymmetric macrocyclic cations and one centrosymmetric dianion (in I) or two centrosymmetric monoanions (in II). In each compound, the metal ion is coordinated by the four secondary N atoms of the macrocyclic ligand, which adopts the most energetically stable trans-III conformation, and the mutually trans O atoms of the carboxyl­ate in a slightly tetra­gonally distorted trans-NiN4O2 octa­hedral coordination geometry. The crystals of both types of compounds are composed of parallel polymeric chains of the macrocyclic cations linked by the anions of the acid running along the [101] and [110] directions in I and II, respectively. In I, each polymeric chain is linked to four neighbouring ones by hydrogen bonding between the NH groups of the macrocycle and the carboxyl­ate O atoms, thus forming a three-dimensional supra­molecular network. In II, each polymeric chain contacts with only two neighbours, forming hydrogen bonds between the partially protonated carb­oxy­lic groups of the bridging ligand. As a result, a lamellar structure is formed with the layers oriented parallel to the (1overline{1}1) plane.

In the title compound, C18H18ClN3O2S, the dihedral angle between the fused pyrazole and pyridine rings is 3.81 (9)°. The benzene ring forms dihedral angles of 35.08 (10) and 36.26 (9)° with the pyrazole and pyridine rings, respectively. In the crystal, weak C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds connect mol­ecules along [100].

The title compound, C15H14N2O2, consists of pyrrole and benzodiazepine units linked to a propargyl moiety, where the pyrrole and diazepine rings adopt half-chair and boat conformations, respectively. The absolute configuration was assigned on the the basis of l-proline, which was used in the synthesis of benzodiazepine. In the crystal, weak C—HBnz⋯ODiazp and C—HProprg⋯ODiazp (Bnz = benzene, Diazp = diazepine and Proprg = proparg­yl) hydrogen bonds link the mol­ecules into two-dimensional networks parallel to the bc plane, enclosing R44(28) ring motifs, with the networks forming oblique stacks along the a-axis direction. The Hirshfeld surface analysis of the crystal structure indicates that the most important contributions for the crystal packing are from H⋯H (49.8%), H⋯C/C⋯H (25.7%) and H⋯O/O⋯H (20.1%) inter­actions. Hydrogen bonding and van der Waals inter­actions are the dominant inter­actions in the crystal packing. Computational chemistry indicates that in the crystal, C—H⋯O hydrogen-bond energies are 38.8 (for C—HBnz⋯ODiazp) and 27.1 (for C—HProprg⋯ODiazp) kJ mol−1. Density functional theory (DFT) optimized structures at the B3LYP/6–311 G(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.

The title compound, bis­(4-hy­droxy-N-isopropyl-N-methyl­tryptammonium) (4-HO-MiPT) fumarate (systematic name: bis­{[2-(4-hy­droxy-1H-indol-3-yl)eth­yl](meth­yl)propan-2-yl­aza­nium} but-2-enedioate), 2C14H21N2O+·C4H2O42−, has a singly protonated tryptammonium cation and one half of a fumarate dianion in the asymmetric unit. The tryptammonium and fumarate ions are held together in one-dimensional chains by N—H⋯O and O—H⋯O hydrogen bonds. These chains are a combination of R42(20) rings, and C22(15) and C44(30) parallel chains along (110). They are further consolidated by N—H⋯π inter­actions. There are two two-component types of disorder impacting the tryptammonium fragment with a 0.753 (7):0.247 (7) occupancy ratio and one of the fumarate oxygen atoms with a 0.73 (8):0.27 (8) ratio.

The title compound, C11H9N3OS, (I), crystallizes in the monoclinic space group P21/n. The mol­ecular conformation is nearly planar and features an intra­molecular chalcogen bond between the thio­phene S and the imine N atoms. Within the crystal, the strongest inter­actions between mol­ecules are the N—H⋯O hydrogen bonds, which organize them into inversion dimers. The dimers are linked through short C—H⋯N contacts and are stacked into layers propagating in the (001) plane. The crystal structure features π–π stacking between the pyridine aromatic ring and the azomethine double bond. The calculated energies of pairwise inter­molecular inter­actions within the stacks are considerably larger than those found for the inter­actions between the layers.

The syntheses and crystal structures of three mol­ecular salts of protonated 3,4-di­amino­benzoic acid, viz. 2-amino-5-carb­oxy­anilinium chloride, C7H9N2O2+·Cl−, (I), 2-amino-5-carb­oxy­anilinium bromide, C7H9N2O2+·Br−, (II), and 2-amino-5-carb­oxy­anilinium nitrate monohydrate, C7H9N2O2+·NO3−·H2O, (III), are described. The cation is protonated at the meta-N atom (with respect to the carb­oxy group) in each case. In the crystal of (I), carb­oxy­lic acid inversion dimers linked by pairwise O—H⋯O hydrogen bonds are seen and each N—H group forms a hydrogen bond to a chloride ion to result in (100) undulating layers of chloride ions bridged by the inversion dimers into a three-dimensional network. The extended structure of (II) features O—H⋯Br, N—H⋯Br and N—H⋯O hydrogen bonds: the last of these generates C(7) chains of cations. Overall, the packing in (II) features undulating (100) sheets of bromide ions alternating with the organic cations. Inter­molecular inter­actions in the crystal of (III) include O—H⋯O, O—H⋯(O,O), N—H⋯O, N—H⋯N and O—H⋯N links. The cations are linked into (001) sheets, and the nitrate ions and water mol­ecules form undulating chains. Taken together, alternating (001) slabs of organic cations plus anions/water mol­ecules result. Hirshfeld surfaces and fingerprint plots were generated to give further insight into the inter­molecular inter­actions in these structures. The crystal used for the data collection of (II) was twinned by rotation about [100] in reciprocal space in a 0.4896 (15):0.5104 (15) ratio.

The title compounds, [Mo(C5H5)(COCH3)(C6H12N3P)(CO)2], (1), and [Mo(C5H5)(COCH3)(C9H16N3O2P)(C6H5)2))(CO)2], (2), have been prepared by phosphine-induced migratory insertion from [Mo(C5H5)(CO)3(CH3)]. The mol­ecular structures of these complexes are quite similar, exhibiting a four-legged piano-stool geometry with trans-disposed carbonyl ligands. The extended structures of complexes (1) and (2) differ substanti­ally. For complex (1), the molybdenum acetyl unit plays a dominant role in the organization of the extended structure, joining the mol­ecules into centrosymmetrical dimers through C—H⋯O inter­actions with a cyclo­penta­dienyl ligand of a neighboring mol­ecule, and these dimers are linked into layers parallel to (100) by C—H⋯O inter­actions between the molybdenum acetyl and the cyclo­penta­dienyl ligand of another neighbor. The extended structure of (2) is dominated by C—H⋯O inter­actions involving the carbonyl groups of the acetamide groups of the DAPTA ligand, which join the mol­ecules into centrosymmetrical dimers and link them into chains along [010]. Additional C—H⋯O inter­actions between the molybdenum acetyl oxygen atom and an acetamide methyl group join the chains into layers parallel to (101).

The title compound, C24H18FNO3, crystallizes in the monoclinic centrosymmetric space group P21/n and its mol­ecular conformation is stabilized via C—H⋯O intra­molecular inter­actions. The supra­molecular network mainly comprises C—H⋯O, C—H⋯F and C—H⋯π inter­actions, which contribute towards the formation of the crystal structure. The different inter­molecular inter­actions have been further analysed via Hirshfeld surface analysis and fingerprint plots.

4-[(Morpholin-4-yl)carbothioyl]benzoic acid, C12H13NO3S, a novel phen­yl(morpholino)methane­thione derivative, crystallizes in the monoclinic space group P21/n. The morpholine ring adopts a chair conformation and the carb­oxy­lic acid group is bent out slightly from the benzene ring mean plane. The mol­ecular geometry of the carb­oxy­lic group is characterized by similar C—O bond lengths [1.266 (2) and 1.268 (2) Å] as the carboxyl­ate H atom is disordered over two positions. This mol­ecular arrangement leads to the formation of dimers through strong and centrosymmetric low barrier O—H⋯O hydrogen bonds between the carb­oxy­lic groups. In addition to these inter­molecular inter­actions, the crystal packing consists of two different mol­ecular sheets with an angle between their mean planes of 64.4 (2)°. The cohesion between the different layers is ensured by C—H⋯S and C—H⋯O inter­actions.
