The crystal structure of the title compound {systematic name: (4S,4aS,5aR,12aR)-4,7-bis­(di­methyl­amino)-9-[(2,2-di­methyl­propyl­amino)­meth­yl]-1,10,11,12a-tetra­hydroxy-3,12-dioxo-4a,5,5a,6-tetra­hydro-4H-tetra­cene-2-carb­oxamide dihydrate, C29H40N4O7·2H2O} has been solved and refined using synchrotron X-ray powder diffraction data: it crystallizes in space group R3 with a = 24.34430 (7), c = 14.55212 (4) Å, V = 7468.81 (2) Å3 and Z = 9. Most of the hydrogen bonds are intra­molecular, but two classical N—H⋯O inter­molecular hydrogen bonds (along with probable weak C—H⋯O and C—H⋯N hydrogen bonds) link the mol­ecules into a three-dimensional framework. The framework contains voids, which contain disordered water mol­ecules. Keto–enol tautomerism is apparently important in this mol­ecule, and the exact mol­ecular structure is ambiguous.

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 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.

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.

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 title compound, C17H12N2O, the quinoxaline moiety shows deviations of 0.0288 (7) to −0.0370 (7) Å from the mean plane (r.m.s. deviation of fitted atoms = 0.0223 Å). In the crystal, corrugated layers two mol­ecules thick are formed by C—H⋯N hydrogen bonds and π-stacking inter­actions.

The title compound, C8H7NO2, crystallizes as prismatic colourless crystals in space group Poverline{1}, with one mol­ecule in the asymmetric unit. The pyridine ring is fused to acrylic acid, forming an almost planar structure with an E-configuration about the double bond with a torsion angle of −6.1 (2)°. In the crystal, strong O—H⋯N inter­actions link the mol­ecules, forming chains along the [101] direction. Weak C—H⋯O inter­actions link adjacent chains along the [100] direction, generating an R22(14) homosynthon. 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. The chains are connected by additional C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds. Hirshfeld surface analysis indicates that the most important contributions to the crystal packing are from H⋯H (37.6%), H⋯O/O⋯H (22.7%) and H⋯Cl/Cl⋯H (13.1%) inter­actions.

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

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. According to a Hirshfeld surface analysis, H⋯H (40.5%), O⋯H/H⋯O (27.0%), C⋯H/H⋯C (13.9%) and Br⋯H/H⋯Br (11.7%) inter­actions are the most significant contributors to the crystal packing. The thio­phene ring and its adjacent di­carboxyl­ate group and the three adjacent carbon atoms of the central hexene ring to which they are attached were refined as disordered over two sets of sites having occupancies of 0.8378 (15) and 0.1622 (15). The thio­phene group is disordered by a rotation of 180° around one bond.

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).

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.

The title copper(II) complex, [Cu(C18H19N3O3)(C3H4N2)], consists of a tridentate ligand synthesized from l-leucine and azo­benzene-salicyl­aldehyde. One imidazole mol­ecule is additionally coordinated to the copper(II) ion in the equatorial plane. The crystal structure features N—H⋯O hydrogen bonds. A Hirshfeld surface analysis indicates that the most important contributions to the packing are from H⋯H (52.0%) and C⋯H/H⋯C (17.9%) contacts.

The title compound, C12H15N3O2S, adopts an E configuration with respect to the C=N bond. The propionate group adopts an anti­periplanar (ap) conformation. There are short intra­molecular N—H⋯N and C—H⋯O contacts, forming S(5) and S(6) ring motifs, respectively. In the crystal, mol­ecules are connected into ribbons extending parallel to [010] by pairs of N—H⋯S inter­actions, forming rings with R22(8) graph-set motifs, and by pairs of C—H⋯S inter­actions, where rings with the graph-set motif R21(7) are observed. The O atom of the carbonyl group is disordered over two positions, with a refined occupancy ratio of 0.27 (2):0.73 (2). The studied crystal consisted of two domains.

In the title compound, C24H21NO3S, the cyclopentene ring adopts an envelope conformation. In the crystal, mol­ecules are linked by C—H⋯π inter­actions, forming ribbons along the a axis. Inter­molecular C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds connect these ribbons to each other, forming layers parallel to the (0overline{1}1) plane. The mol­ecular packing is strengthened by van der Waals inter­actions between the layers. The inter­molecular contacts were qu­anti­fied using Hirshfeld surface analysis and two-dimensional fingerprint plots, revealing the relative contributions of the contacts to the crystal packing to be H⋯H 46.0%, C⋯H/H⋯C 21.1%, O⋯H/H⋯O 20.6% and S⋯H/H⋯S 9.0%.

In the title mol­ecule, C21H17N3O2, the five-membered ring is slightly ruffled and dihedral angles between the pendant six-membered rings and the central, five-membered ring vary between 50.78 (4) and 86.78 (10)°. The exocyclic nitro­gen lone pair is involved in conjugated π bonding to the five-membered ring. In the crystal, a layered structure is generated by O—H⋯N and N—H⋯O hydrogen bonds plus C—H⋯π(ring) and weak π-stacking inter­actions.

The complex [Pt(C9H6NO)Cl(C2H4)], (I), was synthesized and structurally characterized by ESI mass spectrometry, IR, NMR spectroscopy, DFT calculations and X-ray diffraction. The results showed that the deprotonated 8-hy­droxy­quinoline (C9H6NO) coordinates with the PtII atom via the N and O atoms while the ethyl­ene coordinates in the η2 manner and in the trans position compared to the coordinating N atom. The crystal packing is characterized by C—H⋯O, C—H⋯π, Cl⋯π and Pt⋯π inter­actions. Complex (I) showed high selective activity against Lu-1 and Hep-G2 cell lines with IC50 values of 0.8 and 0.4 µM, respectively, 54 and 33-fold more active than cisplatin. In particular, complex (I) is about 10 times less toxic to normal cells (HEK-293) than cancer cells Lu-1 and Hep-G2. Furthermore, the reaction of complex (I) with guanine at the N7 position was proposed and investigated using the DFT method. The results indicated that replacement of the ethyl­ene ligand with guanine is thermodynamically more favorable than the Cl ligand and that the reaction occurs via two consecutive steps, namely the replacement of ethyl­ene with H2O and the water with the guanine mol­ecule.

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

The new palladium(II) complex, [Pd(C16H16N4O3)2](CF3COO)2·2CF3COOH, crystallizes in the triclinic space group Poverline{1} with the asymmetric unit containing half the cation (PdII site symmetry Ci), one tri­fluoro­actetate anion and one co-crystallized tri­fluoro­acetic acid mol­ecule. Two neutral chelating 2-[5-(3,4,5-tri­meth­oxy­phen­yl)-4H-1,2,4-triazol-3-yl]pyridine ligands coordinate to the PdII ion through the triazole-N and pyridine-N atoms in a distorted trans-PdN4 square-planar configuration [Pd—N 1.991 (2), 2.037 (2) Å; cis N—Pd—N 79.65 (8), 100.35 (8)°]. The complex cation is quite planar, except for the methoxo groups (δ = 0.117 Å for one of the C atoms). The planar configuration is supported by two intra­molecular C—H⋯N hydrogen bonds. In the crystal, the π–π-stacked cations are arranged in sheets parallel to the ab plane that are flanked on both sides by the tri­fluoro­acetic acid–tri­fluoro­acetate anion pairs. Apart from classical N/O—H⋯O hydrogen-bonding inter­actions, weak C—H⋯F/N/O contacts consolidate the three-dimensional architecture. Both tri­fluoro­acetic moieties were found to be disordered over two resolvable positions with a refined occupancy ratio of 0.587 (1):0.413 (17) and 0.530 (6):0.470 (6) for the protonated and deprotonated forms, respectively.

In the title compound, C15H13NO3S, the mol­ecular conformation is stable with the intra­molecular O—H⋯O hydrogen bond forming a S(7) ring motif. In the crystal, mol­ecules are connected by C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds, forming C(8) chains running along the a-axis direction. Cohesion of the packing is provided by weak van der Waals inter­actions between the chains. A Hirshfeld surface analysis was undertaken to investigate and qu­antify the inter­molecular inter­actions. The thio­phene ring is disordered in a 0.9466 (17):0.0534 (17) ratio over two positions rotated by 180°.

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. The mol­ecular structure optimized by density functional theory (DFT) at the B3LYP/6–311 G(d,p) level is compared with the experimentally determined mol­ecular structure in the solid state.

In the title compound, C6H4BrF3N4O2, the oxa­diazole ring is essentially planar with a maximum deviation of 0.003 (2) Å. In the crystal, mol­ecular pairs are connected by N—H⋯N hydrogen bonds, forming dimers with an R22(8) motif. The dimers are linked into layers parallel to the (10overline{4}) plane by N—H⋯O hydrogen bonds. In addition, C—O⋯π and C—Br⋯π inter­actions connect the mol­ecules, forming a three-dimensional network. The F atoms of the tri­fluoro­methyl group are disordered over two sites in a 0.515 (6): 0.485 (6) ratio. The inter­molecular inter­actions in the crystal structure were investigated and qu­anti­fied using Hirshfeld surface analysis.

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 reaction of copper(II) oxalate and hexa­methyl­ene­tetra­mine in a deep eutectic solvent made of urea and choline chloride produced crystals of penta­amine­copper(II) dichloride–urea (1/1), [Cu(NH3)5]Cl2·CO(NH2)2, which was characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The complex contains discrete penta­amine­copper(II) units in a square-based pyramidal geometry. The overall structure of the multi-component crystal is dictated by hydrogen bonding between urea mol­ecules and amine H atoms with chloride anions.

The title mol­ecule, C18H26O4, consists of two symmetrical halves related by the inversion centre at the mid-point of the central –C—C– bond. The hexene ring adopts an envelope conformation. In the crystal, the mol­ecules are connected into dimers by C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds with R22(8) ring motifs, forming zigzag ribbons along the b-axis direction. According to a Hirshfeld surface analysis, H⋯H (68.2%) and O⋯H/H⋯O (25.9%) inter­actions are the most significant contributors to the crystal packing. The contribution of some disordered solvent to the scattering was removed using the SQUEEZE routine [Spek (2015). Acta Cryst. C71, 9–18] in PLATON. The solvent contribution was not included in the reported mol­ecular weight and density.

In the title compound, C31H24N4O2, the di­hydro­quinoxaline units are both essentially planar with the dihedral angle between their mean planes being 64.82 (4)°. The attached phenyl rings differ significantly in their rotational orientations with respect to the di­hydro­quinoxaline planes. In the crystal, one set of C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds form chains along the b-axis direction, which are connected in pairs by a second set of C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds. Two sets of π-stacking inter­actions and C—H⋯π(ring) inter­actions join the double chains into the final three-dimensional structure.

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

In the title compound, C19H17NO5S, the cyclo­hexene ring adopts nearly an envelope conformation. In the crystal, mol­ecules are linked by C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds, forming a three-dimensional network. In addition, C—H⋯π inter­actions connect the mol­ecules by forming layers parallel to the (010) plane. According to the Hirshfeld surface analysis, H⋯H (36.9%), O⋯H/H⋯O (31.0%), C⋯H/H⋯C (18.9%) and S⋯H/H⋯S (7.9%) inter­actions are the most significant contributors to the crystal packing.

Ethyl 2-[(2-oxo-2H-chromen-6-yl)­oxy]acetate, C13H12O5, a member of the pharmacologically important class of coumarins, crystallizes in the monoclinic C2/c space group in the form of sheets, within which mol­ecules are related by inversion centers and 21 axes. Multiple C—H⋯O weak hydrogen-bonding inter­actions reinforce this pattern. The planes of these sheets are oriented in the approximate direction of the ac face diagonal. Inter­sheet inter­actions are a combination of coumarin system π–π stacking and additional C—H⋯O weak hydrogen bonds between ethyl acet­oxy groups.

Crystal formation of penta­sodium nona­deca­cesium tetra­cosa­tungstate(VI) heneikosahydrate, Na5Cs19[W24O84]·21H2O, was successfully achieved by the conversion of [H2W12O42]10− through the addition of excess Cs+. The crystal structure comprising the toroidal isopolyoxidometalate is presented, as well as its Raman spectrum. Na5Cs19(H2O)21W24O84 crystallizes in the rhombohedral space group Roverline{3} with an obverse centering. The title compound represents the addition of a new member to the isopolytungstate family with mixed alkali counter-ions and contains rarely observed five-coordinate tungsten(VI) atoms in the [W24O84]24− anion (site symmetry C3i) arising from the conversion mediated by Cs+ counter-ions.

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

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.

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

3-Phenyl-2-(thio­phen-3-yl)-2,3-di­hydro-4H-pyrido[3,2-e][1,3]thia­zin-4-one (C17H12N2OS2, 1) and 2-(1H-indol-3-yl)-3-phenyl-2,3-di­hydro-4H-pyrido[3,2-e][1,3]thia­zin-4-one 0.438-hydrate (C21H15N3OS·0.438H2O, 2) crystallize in space groups P21/n and C2/c, respectively. The asymmetric unit in each case is comprised of two parent mol­ecules, albeit of mixed chirality in the case of 1 and of similar chirality in 2 with the enanti­omers occupying the neighboring asymmetric units. Structure 2 also has water mol­ecules (partial occupancies) that form continuous channels along the b-axis direction. The thia­zine rings in both structures exhibit an envelope conformation. Inter­molecular inter­actions in 1 are defined only by C—H⋯O and C—H⋯N hydrogen bonds between crystallographically independent mol­ecules. In 2, hydrogen bonds of the type N—H⋯O between independent mol­ecules and C—H⋯N(π) type, and π–π stacking inter­actions between the pyridine rings of symmetry-related mol­ecules are observed.

In the title mol­ecular salt, (C12H14N2)[CoCl4], the dihedral angle between the pyridine rings of the cation is 52.46 (9)° and the N—C—C—N torsion angle is −128.78 (14)°, indicating that the ring nitro­gen atoms are in anti-clinal conformation. The Cl—Co—Cl bond angles in the anion span the range 105.46 (3)–117.91 (2)°. In the extended structure, the cations and anions are linked by cation-to-anion N—H⋯Cl and C—H⋯Cl inter­actions, facilitating the formation of R44(18) and R44(20) ring motifs. Furthermore, the crystal structure features weak anion-to-cation Cl⋯π inter­actions [Cl⋯π = 3.4891 (12) and 3.5465 (12) Å]. Hirshfeld two-dimensional fingerprint plots revealed that the most significant inter­actions are Cl⋯H/H⋯Cl (45.5%), H⋯H (29.0%), Cl⋯C/C⋯Cl (7.8%), Cl⋯N/N⋯Cl (3.5%), Cl⋯Cl (1.4) and Co⋯H (1%) contacts.

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

The title compound, C8H11PS, which melts below room temperature, was crystallized at low temperature. The P—S bond length is 1.9623 (5) Å and the major contributors to the Hirshfeld surface are H⋯H (58.1%), S⋯H/H⋯S (13.4%) and C⋯H/H⋯C contacts (11.7%).

The crystal structure of the title 2:1 mol­ecular complex between 2-(allyl­thio)­pyridine and 1,2,4,5-tetra­fluoro-3,6-di­iodo­benzene, C6F4I2·2C8H9NS, at 100 K has been determined in the monoclinic space group P21/c. The most noteworthy characteristic of the complex is the halogen bond between iodine and the pyridine ring with a short N⋯I contact [2.8628 (12) Å]. The Hirshfeld surface analysis shows that the hydrogen⋯hydrogen contacts dominate the crystal packing with a contribution of 32.1%.

Tetra­kis(μ-acetato-κ2O:O')bis­{[1,3-bis­(2,6-diiso­propyl­phen­yl)imidazol-2-yl­idene-κC2]chromium(II)} tetra­hydro­furan disolvate, [Cr2(C2H3O2)4(C27H36N4)2]·2C4H8O or [Cr2(OAc)4(IDipp)2]·2C4H8O (1), and tetra­kis­(μ-acetato-κ2O:O')bis­{[1,3-bis­(2,4,6-tri­methyl­phen­yl)imidazol-2-yl­idene-κC2]chromium(II)}, {Cr2(C2H3O2)4(C21H24N2)2] or [Cr2(OAc)4(IMes)2] (2), were synthesized from anhydrous chromium(II) acetate [Cr2(OAc)4] and the corresponding NHC (NHC = N-heterocyclic carbene) in toluene as solvent. Both complexes crystallize in the triclinic system, space group Poverline{1}. The mol­ecular structures consist of Cr2(OAc)4 paddle-wheels that carry two terminal NHC ligands. This leads to a square-pyramidal coordination of the chromium atoms.

In the title compound, C19H18BrFN2O, the pyrrolidine ring adopts an envelope conformation. In the crystal, mol­ecules are linked by inter­molecular N—H⋯O, C—H⋯O, C—H⋯F and C—H⋯Br hydrogen bonds, forming a three-dimensional network. In addition, C—H⋯π inter­actions connect mol­ecules into ribbons along the b-axis direction, consolidating the mol­ecular packing. The inter­molecular inter­actions in the crystal structure were qu­anti­fied and analysed using Hirshfeld surface analysis.

In the title compound, C14H14O4, the dihedral angle between the coumarin ring system (r.m.s deviation = 0.016 Å) and the penta­noate ring is 36.26 (8)°. A short intra­molecular C—H⋯O contact of 2.40 Å is observed. Hirshfeld surface analysis reveals that 46.1% of the inter­molecular inter­actions are from H⋯H contacts, 28.6% are from H⋯O/O⋯H contacts and 14.7% are from H⋯C/C⋯H.

The pyrazolo­pyrimidine moiety in the title mol­ecule, C13H12N4S, is planar with the methyl­sulfanyl substituent lying essentially in the same plane. The benzyl group is rotated well out of this plane by 73.64 (6)°, giving the mol­ecule an approximate L shape. In the crystal, C—H⋯π(ring) inter­actions and C—H⋯S hydrogen bonds form tubes extending along the a axis. Furthermore, there are π–π inter­actions between parallel phenyl rings with centroid-to-centroid distances of 3.8418 (12) Å. A Hirshfeld surface analysis of the crystal structure indicates that the most important contributions to the crystal packing are from H⋯H (47.0%), H⋯N/N⋯H (17.6%) and H⋯C/C⋯H (17.0%) inter­actions. The volume of the crystal voids and the percentage of free space were calculated to be 76.45 Å3 and 6.39%, showing that there is no large cavity in the crystal packing. Evaluation of the electrostatic, dispersion and total energy frameworks indicate that the cohesion of the crystal structure is dominated by the dispersion energy contributions.
