Poly[(μ-2,3-diethyl-7,8-di­methyl­quinoxaline-κ2N:N)(2,3-diethyl-7,8-di­methyl­quinoxaline-κN)-μ-nitrato-κ2O:O'-nitrato-κ2O,O'-disilver(I)]

The structure of the title compound, [C14H18N2)2Ag2](NO3)2, contains subtle differences in ligand, metal, and counter-anion coordination. One quinoxaline ligand uses one of its quinoxaline N atoms to bond to one silver cation. That silver cation is bound to a second quinoxaline which, in turn, is bound to a second silver atom; thereby using both of its quinoxaline N atoms. A nitrate group bonds with one of its O atoms to the first silver and uses the same oxygen to bond to a silver atom (related by symmetry to the second), thereby forming an extended network. The second nitrate group on the other silver bonds via two nitrate O atoms; one silver cation therefore has a coordination number of three whereas the second has a coordination number of four. One of the quinoxaline ligands has a disordered ethyl group.

Bis[2,6-bis­(1H-benzimidazol-2-yl)pyridine]ruthenium(II) bis(hexa­fluorido­phosphate) diethyl ether tris­olvate

The title compound, [Ru(C19H13N5)2](PF6)2·3C4H10O, was obtained from the reaction of Ru(bimpy)Cl3 [bimpy is 2,6-bis­(1H-benzimidazol-2-yl)pyridine] and bimpy in refluxing ethanol followed by recrystallization from diethyl ether/aceto­nitrile. At 125 K the complex has ortho­rhom­bic (Pca21) symmetry. It is remarkable that the structure is almost centrosymmetric. However, refinement in space group Pbcn leads to disorder and definitely worse results. It is of inter­est with respect to potential catalytic reduction of CO2. The structure displays N—H⋯O, N—H⋯F hydrogen bonding and significant π–π stacking and C—H⋯π stacking inter­actions.

Δ-Bis[(S)-2-(4-isopropyl-4,5-di­hydro­oxazol-2-yl)phenolato-κ2N,O1](1,10-phenanthroline-κ2N,N')ruthenium(III) hexa­fluorido­phosphate

The title compound, [Ru(C12H14NO2)2(C12H8N2)]PF6 crystallizes in the tetra­gonal Sohnke space group P41212. The two bidentate chiral salicyloxazoline ligands and the phenanthroline co-ligand coordinate to the central RuIII atom through N,O and N,N atom pairs to form bite angles of 89.76 (15) and 79.0 (2)°, respectively. The octa­hedral coordination of the bidentate ligands leads to a propeller-like shape, which induces metal-centered chirality onto the complex, with a right-handed (Δ) absolute configuration [the Flack parameter value is −0.003 (14)]. Both the complex cation and the disordered PF6− counter-anion are located on twofold rotation axes. Apart from Coulombic forces, the crystal cohesion is ensured by non-classical C—H⋯O and C—H⋯F inter­actions.

Di-μ-adipato-κ4O1,O1':O6,O6'-bis­[(2,2'-di­pyridyl­amine-κ2N,N')zinc(II)] trihydrate

The title compound, [Zn2(C6H8O4)2(C10H9N3)2]·3H2O or {Zn2[(C5H4N)2NH]2[μ-(CH2)4(COO)2]2}·3H2O, was separ­ated from the solvothermal reaction of zinc(II) sulfate hepta­hydrate, 2,2'-di­pyridyl­amine and sodium adipate. The dinuclear metal complex has a centrosymmetric structure, with the ZnII atom adopting a highly distorted octa­hedral coordination sphere composed of four oxygen atoms from bridging adipato ligands and two pyridine nitro­gen atoms.

Methyl 2-[(Z)-5-methyl-2-oxoindolin-3-yl­idene]hydrazinecarbodi­thio­ate

The title di­thio­carbazate imine, C11H11N3OS2, was obtained from the condensation reaction of S-methyl­dithio­carbazate (SMDTC) and 5-methyl­isatin. It shows a Z configuration about the imine C=N bond, which is associated with an intra­molecular N—H⋯O hydrogen bond that closes an S(6) ring. In the crystal, inversion dimers linked by pairwise N—H⋯O hydrogen bonds generate R22(8) loops. The extended structure features C—H⋯S contacts as well as reciprocal carbon­yl–carbonyl (C=O⋯C=O) inter­actions.

(Z)-N-(2,6-Diiso­propyl­phen­yl)-1-[(2-meth­oxyphen­yl)amino]­methanimine oxide

The mol­ecular structure of the title compound, C20H26N2O2 reveals non-co-planarity between the central formamidine backbone and each of the outer meth­oxy- and i-propyl- substituted benzene rings with dihedral angles of 7.88 (15) and 81.17 (15)°, respectively, indicating significant twists in the mol­ecule. In the crystal, inter­molecular C—H⋯O inter­actions, forming an R34(30) graph set, occur within a two-dimensional layer that extends along the ac plane.

meso-5,15-Bis[3-(iso­propyl­idenegalacto­pyran­oxy)phen­yl]-10,20-bis­(4-methyl­phen­yl)porphyrin

The crystal structure of a glycosyl­ated porphyrin (P_Gal2) system, C70H70N4O12, where two iso­propyl­idene protected galactose moieties are attached to the meso position of a substituted tetra­aryl porphyrin is reported. This structure reveals that the parent porphyrin is planar, with the galactose moieties positioned above and below the porphyrin macrocycle. This orientation likely prevents porphyrin–porphyrin H-type aggregation, potentially enhancing its efficiency as a photosensitizer in photodynamic therapy. Notable non-bonding C—H⋯O and C—H⋯π inter­actions among adjacent P_Gal2 systems are observed in this crystal network. Additionally, the tolyl groups of each porphyrin can engage in π–π inter­actions with the delocalized π-systems of neighboring porphyrins.

Benzilic acid: a monoclinic polymorph

The title compound, C14H12O3, is an α-hy­droxy­carb­oxy­lic acid whose ortho­rhom­bic polymorph has been reported earlier [Qiu et al. (2007). Inorg. Chim. Acta, 360, 1819–1824]. The asymmetric unit contains two complete mol­ecules. Classical hydrogen bonds, as well as C—H⋯O contacts, connect the mol­ecules to infinite chains along the crystallographic c-axis direction.

2-Amino-5-oxo-4-(thio­phen-2-yl)-5,6,7,8-tetra­hydro-4H-chromene-3-carbo­nitrile

The crystal structure of the title compound, C14H12N2O2S, reveals two symmetrically independent mol­ecules within the asymmetric unit. Each mol­ecule contains a chromenone core attached to a 2-thio­phene ring, cyano, and amino groups. The 2-thio­phene ring of one of the two mol­ecules in the asymmetric unit was found to be disordered over two positions, with the major component having a site occupancy factor of 0.837 (2). The 2-thio­phene ring is nearly orthogonal to the fused 4H-pyran ring, with dihedral angles between the two sets of planes being 89.5 (5) and 89.63 (8)°. Inter­molecular hydrogen bonding, involving N—H⋯N and N—H⋯O inter­actions, creates two distinct motifs leading to the formation of a two-dimensional supra­molecular network along the crystallographic ac plane.

Structural insights into 1,4-bis­(neopent­yloxy)pillar[5]arene and the pyridine host–guest system

The crystal structure of 1,4-bis­(neopent­yloxy)pillar[5]arene, C95H140N2O10 (TbuP), featuring two encapsulated pyridine mol­ecules, reveals significant host–guest inter­actions. Inter­estingly, the pyridine guests are positioned near the neopent­yloxy substituents instead of the electron-rich aromatic core of the pillar[5]arene. This spatial arrangement suggests a preference for the pyridine mol­ecules to engage with the aliphatic regions of the host. Detailed analysis of the structural characteristics of this host–guest system (TbuP·2Py), as well as its packing pattern within the crystal network, is presented and discussed.
