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 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 title compound, (2,2'-bi­pyridine-κ2N,N')bis­(2-meth­oxy­ethyl xanthato-κS)zinc(II), [Zn(C4H7O2S2)2(C10H8N2)], the ZnII ion is coordinated to two N atoms of the 2,2'-bi­pyridine ligand and two S atoms from two 2-meth­oxy­ethyl xanthate ligands. The ZnII ion lies on a crystallographic twofold rotation axis and has distorted tetra­hedral coordination geometry. In the crystal, mol­ecules are linked by weak C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds, forming supramolecular chains propagating along the a-axis direction. Weak intra­molecular C—H⋯S hydrogen bonds are also observed. The inter­molecular contacts in the crystal were further analysed using Hirshfield surface analysis, which indicates that the most significant contacts are H⋯H (36.3%), followed by S⋯H/H⋯S (24.7%), C⋯H/H⋯C (15.1%), O⋯H/H⋯O (14.4%), N⋯H/H⋯N (4.1%) and C⋯C (2.9%).

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%).

In the title compound, C10H10N2OS, the five atoms of the thio­phene ring are essentially coplanar (r.m.s. deviation = 0.0037 Å) and the pyridazine ring is non-planar. In the crystal, pairs of N—H⋯O hydrogen bonds link the mol­ecules into dimers with an R22(8) ring motif. The dimers are linked by C—H⋯O inter­actions, forming layers parallel to the bc plane. The theoretical geometric parameters are in good agreement with XRD results. The inter­molecular inter­actions were investigated using a Hirshfeld surface analysis and two-dimensional fingerprint plots. The Hirshfeld surface analysis of the title compound suggests that the most significant contributions to the crystal packing are by H⋯H (39.7%), C⋯H/H⋯C (17.3%) and O⋯H/H⋯O (16.8%) contacts.

The title pyridazinone derivative, C20H18N2O3, is not planar. The phenyl ring and the pyridazine ring are inclined to each other by 10.55 (12)°, whereas the 4-methyl­benzyl ring is nearly orthogonal to the pyridazine ring, with a dihedral angle of 72.97 (10)°. In the crystal, mol­ecules are linked by pairs of O—H⋯O hydrogen bonds, forming inversion dimers with an R22(14) ring motif. The dimers are linked by C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds, generating ribbons propagating along the c-axis direction. The inter­molecular inter­actions were additionally investigated using Hirshfeld surface analysis and two-dimensional fingerprint plots. They revealed that the most significant contributions to the crystal packing are from H⋯H (48.4%), H⋯O/O⋯H (21.8%) and H⋯C/C⋯H (20.4%) contacts. Mol­ecular orbital calculations providing electron-density plots of HOMO and LUMO mol­ecular orbitals and mol­ecular electrostatic potentials (MEP) were also computed, both with the DFT/B3LYP/6–311 G++(d,p) basis set.

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.

In the title hydrated hybrid compound C14H14N2OS2·H2O, the planar imidazo[1,2-a]pyridine ring system is linked to the 1,3-di­thiol­ane moiety by an enone bridge. The atoms of the C—C bond in the 1,3-di­thiol­ane ring are disordered over two positions with occupancies of 0.579 (14) and 0.421 (14) and both disordered rings adopt a half-chair conformation. The oxygen atom of the enone bridge is involved in a weak intra­molecular C—H⋯O hydrogen bond, which generates an S(6) graph-set motif. In the crystal, the hybrid mol­ecules are associated in R22(14) dimeric units by weak C—H⋯O inter­actions. O—H⋯O hydrogen bonds link the water mol­ecules, forming infinite self-assembled chains along the b-axis direction to which the dimers are connected via O—H⋯N hydrogen bonding. Analysis of inter­molecular contacts using Hirshfeld surface analysis and contact enrichment ratio descriptors indicate that hydrogen bonds induced by water mol­ecules are the main driving force in the crystal packing formation.

In the title mol­ecule, C11H10N2O, the di­hydro­benzimidazol-2-one moiety is essentially planar, with the prop-2-yn-1-yl substituent rotated well out of this plane. In the crystal, C—HMthy⋯π(ring) inter­actions and C—HProp⋯ODhyr (Mthy = methyl, Prop = prop-2-yn-1-yl and Dhyr = di­hydro) hydrogen bonds form corrugated layers parallel to (10overline{1}), which are associated through additional C—HBnz⋯ODhyr (Bnz = benzene) hydrogen bonds and head-to-tail, slipped, π-stacking [centroid-to-centroid distance = 3.7712 (7) Å] inter­actions between di­hydro­benzimidazol-2-one moieties. The Hirshfeld surface analysis of the crystal structure indicates that the most important contributions to the crystal packing are from H⋯H (44.1%), H⋯C/C⋯H (33.5%) and O⋯H/H⋯O (13.4%) inter­actions. Hydrogen-bonding and van der Waals inter­actions are the dominant inter­actions in the crystal packing. Computational chemistry calculations indicate that in the crystal, C—H⋯O hydrogen-bond energies are 46.8 and 32.5 (for C—HProp⋯ODhyr) and 20.2 (for C—HBnz⋯ODhyr) 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 mol­ecular structure of the title bis-pyridyl substituted di­amide hydrate, C14H14N4O2·H2O, features a central C2N2O2 residue (r.m.s. deviation = 0.0205 Å) linked at each end to 3-pyridyl rings through methyl­ene groups. The pyridyl rings lie to the same side of the plane, i.e. have a syn-periplanar relationship, and form dihedral angles of 59.71 (6) and 68.42 (6)° with the central plane. An almost orthogonal relationship between the pyridyl rings is indicated by the dihedral angle between them [87.86 (5)°]. Owing to an anti disposition between the carbonyl-O atoms in the core, two intra­molecular amide-N—H⋯O(carbon­yl) hydrogen bonds are formed, each closing an S(5) loop. Supra­molecular tapes are formed in the crystal via amide-N—H⋯O(carbon­yl) hydrogen bonds and ten-membered {⋯HNC2O}2 synthons. Two symmetry-related tapes are linked by a helical chain of hydrogen-bonded water mol­ecules via water-O—H⋯N(pyrid­yl) hydrogen bonds. The resulting aggregate is parallel to the b-axis direction. Links between these, via methyl­ene-C—H⋯O(water) and methyl­ene-C—H⋯π(pyrid­yl) inter­actions, give rise to a layer parallel to (10overline{1}); the layers stack without directional inter­actions between them. The analysis of the Hirshfeld surfaces point to the importance of the specified hydrogen-bonding inter­actions, and to the significant influence of the water mol­ecule of crystallization upon the mol­ecular packing. The analysis also indicates the contribution of methyl­ene-C—H⋯O(carbon­yl) and pyridyl-C—H⋯C(carbon­yl) contacts to the stability of the inter-layer region. The calculated inter­action energies are consistent with importance of significant electrostatic attractions in the crystal.

The asymmetric unit of the title compound, {[Mn2Sb2S5(C15H11N3)2]·4H2O}n, consists of two crystallographically independent MnII ions, two unique terpyridine ligands, one [Sb2S5]4− anion and four solvent water mol­ecules, all of which are located in general positions. The [Sb2S5]4− anion consists of two SbS3 units that share common corners. Each of the MnII ions is fivefold coordinated by two symmetry-related S atoms of [Sb2S5]4− anions and three N atoms of a terpyridine ligand within an irregular coordination. Each two anions are linked by two [Mn(terpyridine)]2+ cations into chains along the c-axis direction that consist of eight-membered Mn2Sb2S4 rings. These chains are further connected into a three-dimensional network by inter­molecular O—H⋯O and O—H⋯S hydrogen bonds. The crystal investigated was twinned and therefore, a twin refinement using data in HKLF-5 [Sheldrick (2015). Acta Cryst. C71, 3–8] format was performed.

The title homoleptic Schiff base complexes, [M(C14H9Cl2N2O)2], for M = CoII, (I), and CuII, (II), present distinct coordination geometries despite the Schiff base dianion coordinating via the phenolato-O and imine-N atoms in each case. For (I), the coordination geometry is based on a trigonal bipyramid whereas for (II), a square-planar geometry is found (Cu site symmetry overline{1}). In the crystal of (I), discernible supra­molecular layers in the ac plane are sustained by chloro­benzene-C—H⋯O(coordinated), chloro­benzene-C—H⋯π(fused-benzene ring) as well as π(fused-benzene, chloro­benzene)–π(chloro­benzene) inter­actions [inter-centroid separations = 3.6460 (17) and 3.6580 (16) Å, respectively]. The layers inter-digitate along the b-axis direction and are linked by di­chloro­benzene-C—H⋯π(fused-benzene ring) and π–π inter­actions between fused-benzene rings and between chloro­benzene rings [inter-centroid separations = 3.6916 (16) and 3.7968 (19) Å, respectively] . Flat, supra­molecular layers are also found in the crystal of (II), being stabilized by π–π inter­actions formed between fused-benzene rings and between chloro­benzene rings [inter-centroid separations = 3.8889 (15) and 3.8889 (15) Å, respectively]; these stack parallel to [10overline{1}] without directional inter­actions between them. The analysis of the respective calculated Hirshfeld surfaces indicate diminished roles for H⋯H contacts [26.2% (I) and 30.5% (II)] owing to significant contributions by Cl⋯H/H⋯Cl contacts [25.8% (I) and 24.9% (II)]. Minor contributions by Cl⋯Cl [2.2%] and Cu⋯Cl [1.9%] contacts are indicated in the crystals of (I) and (II), respectively. The inter­action energies largely arise from dispersion terms; the aforementioned Cu⋯Cl contact in (II) gives rise to the most stabilizing inter­action in the crystal of (II).

In the title compound, di­aqua­bis­(ethyl­enedi­amine-κ2N,N')copper(II) bis­(2-nitro­benzoate), [Cu(C2H8N2)2(H2O)2](C7H4NO4)2, two di­aqua­bis­(ethyl­enedi­amine)­copper(II) cations and four nitro­benzoate anions are present in the asymmetric unit. All four anions are `whole-mol­ecule' disordered over two sets of sites. The major components have refined occupancies of 0.572 (13), 0.591 (9), 0.601 (9) and 0.794 (10). The CuII ions exhibit slightly distorted octa­hedral geometries. In the crystal, cations and anions are connected to each other via N—H⋯O and O—H⋯O hydrogen bonds, forming a two-dimensional network parallel to (200). The inter­molecular contacts in the crystal were further analysed using Hirshfeld surface analysis, which indicates that the most significant contacts are O⋯H/H⋯O (42.9%), followed by H⋯H (35.7%), C⋯H/H⋯C (14.2%), C⋯C (2.9%), C⋯O/O⋯C (2.2%), N⋯H/H⋯N (0.9%) and N⋯O/O⋯N (0.3%).

The solvated title salt, [Ir(C9H7N2)2(C8H6N2)]PF6·CH2Cl2, was obtained from the reaction between 1,8-naphthyridine (NAP) and an orthometalated iridium(III) precursor containing a 1-phenyl­pyrazole (ppz) ligand. The asymmetric unit comprises one [Ir(ppz)2(NAP)]+ cation, one PF6− counter-ion and one CH2Cl2 solvent mol­ecule. The central IrIII atom of the [Ir(ppz)2(NAP)]+ cation is distorted-octa­hedrally coordinated by four N atoms and two C atoms, whereby two N atoms stem from the NAP ligand while the ppz ligands ligate through one N and one C atom each. In the crystal, the [Ir(ppz)2(NAP)]+ cations and PF6− counter-ions are connected with each other through weak inter­molecular C—H⋯F hydrogen bonds. Together with an additional C—H⋯F inter­action involving the solvent mol­ecule, a three-dimensional network structure is formed.

In the title mol­ecule, C24H21N5O·H2O, the di­hydro­benzo­diazole moiety is not quite planar, while the whole mol­ecule adopts a U-shaped conformation in which there is a close approach of the two benzyl groups. In the crystal, chains of alternating mol­ecules and lattice water extending along [201] are formed by O—HUncoordW⋯ODhyr and O—HUncoordW⋯NTrz (UncoordW = uncoordinated water, Dhyr = di­hydro and Trz = triazole) hydrogen bonds. The chains are connected into layers parallel to (010) by C—HTrz⋯OUncoordW hydrogen bonds with the di­hydro­benzo­diazole units in adjacent layers inter­calating to form head-to-tail π-stacking [centroid-to-centroid distance = 3.5694 (11) Å] inter­actions between them, which generates the overall three-dimensional structure. Hirshfeld surface analysis indicates that the most important contributions for the crystal packing are from H⋯H (52.1%), H⋯C/C⋯H (23.8%) and O⋯H/H⋯O (11.2%) inter­actions. Hydrogen-bonding and van der Waals inter­actions are the dominant inter­actions in the crystal packing. 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 crystal and mol­ecular structures of the title 1:2 co-crystal, C14H14N4O2·2C7H6O2, are described. The oxalamide mol­ecule has a (+)-anti­periplanar conformation with the 4-pyridyl residues lying to either side of the central, almost planar C2N2O2 chromophore (r.m.s. deviation = 0.0555 Å). The benzoic acid mol­ecules have equivalent, close to planar conformations [C6/CO2 dihedral angle = 6.33 (14) and 3.43 (10)°]. The formation of hy­droxy-O—H⋯N(pyrid­yl) hydrogen bonds between the benzoic acid mol­ecules and the pyridyl residues of the di­amide leads to a three-mol­ecule aggregate. Centrosymmetrically related aggregates assemble into a six-mol­ecule aggregate via amide-N—H⋯O(amide) hydrogen bonds through a 10-membered {⋯HNC2O}2 synthon. These are linked into a supra­molecular tape via amide-N—H⋯O(carbon­yl) hydrogen bonds and 22-membered {⋯HOCO⋯NC4NH}2 synthons. The contacts between tapes to consolidate the three-dimensional architecture are of the type methyl­ene-C—H⋯O(amide) and pyridyl-C—H⋯O(carbon­yl). These inter­actions are largely electrostatic in nature. Additional non-covalent contacts are identified from an analysis of the calculated Hirshfeld surfaces.

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.

In the title compound, C18H15ClN2O·H2O, a benzohydrazide derivative, the dihedral angle between the mean plane of the di­hydro­naphthalene ring system and the phenyl ring is 17.1 (2)°. In the crystal, O—H⋯O, N—H⋯O and C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds link the benzohydrazide and water mol­ecules, forming a layer parallel to the bc plane. Hirshfeld surface analysis and two-dimensional fingerprint plots indicate that the most important contributions to the crystal packing are from H⋯H (45.7%) and H⋯C/C⋯H (20.2%) contacts.

The title compound, [Na(μ-C6F5BH3)(C4H8O)2]2, represents a dimeric structure of sodium and organoborohydride, located about a centre of inversion. The Na⋯B distances of 2.7845 (19) and 2.7494 (18) Å were apparently longer than the Li⋯B distances (2.403–2.537 Å) of the lithium organotri­hydro­borates in the previous reports. Moreover, an inter­action between the sodium atom and one fluorine atom on the 2-position of the benzene ring is observed [Na—F = 2.6373 (12) Å]. In the crystal, the dimeric mol­ecules are stacked along the b-axis via a π–π inter­action between the benzene rings.

Recrystallization of (E)-5-phenyl-1-(pyridin-2-yl)pent-2-en-4-yn-1-one at room temperature from ethyl­ene glycol in daylight afforded [3,4-bis­(phenyl­ethyn­yl)cyclo­butane-1,2-di­yl)bis­(pyridin-2-yl­methanone], C32H22N2O2 (3), while (E)-5-(4-methyl­phen­yl)-1-(pyridin-2-yl)pent-2-en-4-yn-1-one, C17H13NO (2), remained photoinert. This is the first experimental evidence that pentenynones can be photoreactive when fixed in nearly coplanar parallel positions. During the photoreaction, the bond lengths and angles along the pentenyne chain changed significantly, while the disposition of the pyridyl ring towards the keto group was almost unchanged. The cyclo­butane ring adopts an rctt conformation.

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.

The title compound, C24H27Cl2NOS, contains 1,4-benzo­thia­zine and 2,4-di­chloro­phenyl­methyl­idene units in which the di­hydro­thia­zine ring adopts a screw-boat conformation. In the crystal, inter­molecular C—HBnz⋯OThz (Bnz = benzene and Thz = thia­zine) hydrogen bonds form chains of mol­ecules extending along the a-axis direction, which are connected to their inversion-related counterparts by C—HBnz⋯ClDchlphy (Dchlphy = 2,4-di­chloro­phen­yl) hydrogen bonds and C—HDchlphy⋯π (ring) inter­actions. These double chains are further linked by C—HDchlphy⋯OThz hydrogen bonds, forming stepped layers approximately parallel to (012). The Hirshfeld surface analysis of the crystal structure indicates that the most important contributions for the crystal packing are from H⋯H (44.7%), C⋯H/H⋯C (23.7%), Cl⋯H/H⋯Cl (18.9%), O⋯H/H⋯O (5.0%) and S⋯H/H⋯S (4.8%) inter­actions. Hydrogen-bonding and van der Waals inter­actions are the dominant inter­actions in the crystal packing. Computational chemistry indicates that in the crystal, C—HDchlphy⋯OThz, C—HBnz⋯OThz and C—HBnz⋯ClDchlphy hydrogen-bond energies are 134.3, 71.2 and 34.4 kJ mol−1, respectively. 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 two carbon atoms at the end of the nonyl chain are disordered in a 0.562 (4)/0.438 (4) ratio.

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.

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.

The title compound, C17H18ClNO2, was prepared and isolated as a pure diastereoisomer, using column chromatography followed by a succession of fractional crystallizations. Its exact structure was fully identified via 1H NMR and confirmed by X-ray diffraction. It is built up from a central five-membered di­hydro­isoxazole ring to which a p-chloro­phenyl group and a cyclo­hex-2-enone ring are attached in the 3 and 5 positions. The cyclo­hex-2-one and isoxazoline rings each exhibit an envelope conformation. The crystal packing features C—H⋯O, C—H⋯N and C—H⋯π inter­actions, which generate a three-dimensional network.

Two polymorphs of the title compound, C19H16N2O3, were obtained from ethano­lic (polymorph I) and methano­lic solutions (polymorph II), respectively. Both polymorphs crystallize in the monoclinic system with four formula units per cell and a complete mol­ecule in the asymmetric unit. The main difference between the mol­ecules of (I) and (II) is the reversed position of the hy­droxy group of the carb­oxy­lic function. All other conformational features are found to be similar in the two mol­ecules. The different orientation of the OH group results in different hydrogen-bonding schemes in the crystal structures of (I) and (II). Whereas in (I) inter­molecular O—H⋯O hydrogen bonds with the pyridazinone carbonyl O atom as acceptor generate chains with a C(7) motif extending parallel to the b-axis direction, in the crystal of (II) pairs of inversion-related O—H⋯O hydrogen bonds with an R22(8) ring motif between two carb­oxy­lic functions are found. The inter­molecular inter­actions in both crystal structures were analysed using Hirshfeld surface analysis and two-dimensional fingerprint plots.

In the title compound, C13H15N3O5S, the two rings face each other in a `V' form at the S atom, with one N—H⋯O=S and one C—H⋯O=S contact from the pyrazolyl substituents to the sulfonyl group. Two classical hydrogen bonds from the amine group, one of the form N—H⋯O=S and one N—H⋯O=Coxo, link the mol­ecules to form layers parallel to the bc plane.

In the title compound, C10H8N8·2H2O or H2bmtz·2H2O [bmtz = 3,6-bis­(2'-pyrimid­yl)-1,2,4,5-tetra­zine], the asymmetric unit consists of one-half mol­ecule of H2bmtz and one water mol­ecule, the whole H2bmtz mol­ecule being generated by a crystallographic twofold rotation axis passing through the middle point of the 1,4-di­hydro-1,2,4,5-tetra­zine moiety. In the crystal, N—H⋯O, N—H⋯N, O—H⋯O hydrogen bonds and aromatic π–π stacking inter­actions link the components into a three-dimensional supra­molecular network. Hirshfeld surface analysis was used to further investigate the inter­molecular inter­actions in the crystal structure.

A one-dimensional nickel(II) coordination polymer with the mixed ligands 6-fluoro­nicotinate (6-Fnic) and 4,4'-bi­pyridine (4,4'-bpy), namely, catena-poly[[di­aqua­bis­(6-fluoro­pyridine-3-carboxyl­ato-κO)nickel(II)]-μ-4,4'-bi­pyri­dine-κ2N:N'] trihydrate], {[Ni(6-Fnic)2(4,4'-bpy)(H2O)2]·3H2O}n, (1), was prepared by the reaction of nickel(II) sulfate hepta­hydrate, 6-fluoro­nicotinic acid (C6H4FNO2) and 4,4'-bi­pyridine (C10H8N2) in a mixture of water and ethanol. The nickel(II) ion in 1 is octa­hedrally coordinated by the O atoms of two water mol­ecules, two O atoms from O-monodentate 6-fluoro­nicotinate ligands and two N atoms from bridging 4,4'-bi­pyridine ligands, forming a trans isomer. The bridging 4,4'-bi­pyridine ligands connect symmetry-related nickel(II) ions into infinite one-dimensional polymeric chains running in the [1overline{1}0] direction. In the extended structure of 1, the polymeric chains and lattice water mol­ecules are connected into a three-dimensional hydrogen-bonded network via strong O—H⋯O and O—H⋯N hydrogen bonds, leading to the formation of distinct hydrogen-bond ring motifs: octa­meric R88(24) and hexa­meric R86(16) loops.

The two new pyrazine­ophanes, 5,7-di­hydro-1H,3H-dithieno[3,4-b:3',4'-e]pyrazine, C8H8N2S2, L1, and 3,4,8,10,11,13-hexa­hydro-1H,6H-bis­([1,4]di­thio­cino)[6,7-b:6',7'-e]pyrazine, C12H16N2S4, L2, both crystallize with half a mol­ecule in the asymmetric unit; the whole mol­ecules are generated by inversion symmetry. The mol­ecule of L1, which is planar (r.m.s. deviation = 0.008 Å), consists of two sulfur atoms linked by a rigid tetra-2,3,5,6-methyl­ene­pyrazine unit, forming planar five-membered rings. The mol­ecule of L2 is step-shaped and consists of two S–CH2–CH2–S chains linked by the central rigid tetra-2,3,5,6-methyl­ene­pyrazine unit, forming eight-membered rings that have twist-boat-chair con­fig­urations. In the crystals of both compounds, there are no significant inter­molecular inter­actions present. The reaction of L1 with silver nitrate leads to the formation of a two-dimensional coordination polymer, poly[(μ-5,7-di­hydro-1H,3H-dithieno[3,4-b;3',4'-e]pyrazine-κ2S:S')(μ-nitrato-κ2O:O')silver(I)], [Ag(NO3)(C8H8N2S2)]n, (I), with the nitrato anion bridging two equivalent silver atoms. The central pyrazine ring is situated about an inversion center and the silver atom lies on a twofold rotation axis that bis­ects the nitrato anion. The silver atom has a fourfold AgO2S2 coordination sphere with a distorted shape. The reaction of L2 with silver nitrate also leads to the formation of a two-dimensional coordination polymer, poly[[μ33,4,8,10,11,13-hexa­hydro-1H,6H-bis­([1,4]di­thio­cino)[6,7-b;6',7'-e]pyrazine-κ3S:S':S''](nitrato-κO)silver(I)], [Ag(NO3)(C12H16N2S4)]n, (II), with the nitrate anion coordinating in a monodentate manner to the silver atom. The silver atom has a fourfold AgOS3 coordination sphere with a distorted shape. In the crystals of both complexes, the networks are linked by C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds, forming supra­molecular frameworks. There are additional C—H⋯S contacts present in the supra­molecular framework of II.

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, C17H12O4, was synthesized from the dye alizarin. The dihedral angle between the mean plane of the anthra­quinone ring system (r.m.s. deviation = 0.039 Å) and the dioxepine ring is 16.29 (8)°. In the crystal, the mol­ecules are linked by C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds, forming sheets lying parallel to the ab plane. The sheets are connected through π–π and C=O⋯π inter­actions to generate a three-dimensional supra­molecular network. Hirshfeld surface analysis was used to investigate inter­molecular inter­actions in the solid-state: the most important contributions are from H⋯H (43.0%), H⋯O/O⋯H (27%), H⋯C/C⋯H (13.8%) and C⋯C (12.4%) contacts.

The title compound, C19H16ClNO3S, consists of chloro­phenyl methyl­idene and di­hydro­benzo­thia­zine units linked to an acetate moiety, where the thia­zine ring adopts a screw-boat conformation. In the crystal, two sets of weak C—HPh⋯ODbt (Ph = phenyl and Dbt = di­hydro­benzo­thia­zine) hydrogen bonds form layers of mol­ecules parallel to the bc plane. The layers stack along the a-axis direction with inter­calation of the ester chains. The crystal studied was a two component twin with a refined BASF of 0.34961 (5). The Hirshfeld surface analysis of the crystal structure indicates that the most important contributions to the crystal packing are from H⋯H (37.5%), H⋯C/C⋯H (24.6%) and H⋯O/O⋯H (16.7%) inter­actions. Hydrogen-bonding and van der Waals inter­actions are the dominant inter­actions in the crystal packing. Computational chemistry indicates that in the crystal, C—HPh⋯ODbt hydrogen bond energies are 38.3 and 30.3 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. Moreover, the anti­bacterial activity of the title compound has been evaluated against gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria.

A 6-chloro­nicotinate (6-Clnic) salt of a one-dimensional cationic nickel(II) coordination polymer with 4,4'-bi­pyridine (4,4'-bpy), namely, catena-poly[[[tetra­aqua­nickel(II)]-μ-4,4'-bi­pyridine-κ2N:N'] bis­(6-chloro­nicotinate) tetra­hydrate], {[Ni(C10H8N2)(H2O)4](C6H3ClNO2)2·4H2O}n or {[Ni(4,4'-bpy)(H2O)4](6-Clnic)2·4H2O}n, (1), was prepared by the reaction of nickel(II) sulfate hepta­hydrate, 6-chloro­nicotinic acid and 4,4'-bi­pyridine in a mixture of water and ethanol. The mol­ecular structure of 1 comprises a one-dimensional polymeric {[Ni(4,4'-bpy)(H2O)4]2+}n cation, two 6-chloro­nicotinate anions and four water mol­ecules of crystallization per repeating polymeric unit. The nickel(II) ion in the polymeric cation is octa­hedrally coordinated by four water mol­ecule O atoms and by two 4,4'-bi­pyridine N atoms in the trans position. The 4,4'-bi­pyridine ligands act as bridges and, thus, connect the symmetry-related nickel(II) ions into an infinite one-dimensional polymeric chain extending along the b-axis direction. In the extended structure of 1, the polymeric chains of {[Ni(4,4'-bpy)(H2O)4]2+}n, the 6-chloro­nicotinate anions and the water mol­ecules of crystallization are assembled into an infinite three-dimensional hydrogen-bonded network via strong O—H⋯O and O—H⋯N hydrogen bonds, leading to the formation of the representative hydrogen-bonded ring motifs: tetra­meric R24(8) and R44(10) loops, a dimeric R22(8) loop and a penta­meric R45(16) loop.

The title complexes, (η4-cyclo­octa-1,5-diene)bis­(1,3-di­methyl­imidazol-2-yl­idene)iridium(I) iodide, [Ir(C5H8N2)2(C8H12)]I, (1) and (η4-cyclo­octa-1,5-di­ene)bis­(1,3-di­ethyl­imidazol-2-yl­idene)iridium(I) iodide, [Ir(C7H12N2)2(C8H12)]I, (2), were prepared using a modified literature method. After carrying out the oxidative addition of the amino acid l-proline to [Ir(COD)(IMe)2]I in water and slowly cooling the reaction to room temperature, a suitable crystal of 1 was obtained and analyzed by single-crystal X-ray diffraction at 100 K. Although this crystal structure has previously been reported in the Pbam space group, it was highly disordered and precise atomic coordinates were not calculated. A single crystal of 2 was also obtained by heating the complex in water and letting it slowly cool to room temperature. Complex 1 was found to crystallize in the monoclinic space group C2/m, while 2 crystallizes in the ortho­rhom­bic space group Pccn, both with Z = 4.

The title compound, C18H16N2O2, consists of perimidine and meth­oxy­phenol units, where the tricyclic perimidine unit contains a naphthalene ring system and a non-planar C4N2 ring adopting an envelope conformation with the NCN group hinged by 47.44 (7)° with respect to the best plane of the other five atoms. In the crystal, O—HPhnl⋯NPrmdn and N—HPrmdn⋯OPhnl (Phnl = phenol and Prmdn = perimidine) hydrogen bonds link the mol­ecules into infinite chains along the b-axis direction. Weak C—H⋯π inter­actions may further stabilize the crystal structure. The Hirshfeld surface analysis of the crystal structure indicates that the most important contributions for the crystal packing are from H⋯H (49.0%), H⋯C/C⋯H (35.8%) and H⋯O/O⋯H (12.0%) inter­actions. Hydrogen bonding and van der Waals inter­actions are the dominant inter­actions in the crystal packing. Computational chemistry indicates that in the crystal, the O—HPhnl⋯NPrmdn and N—HPrmdn⋯OPhnl hydrogen-bond energies are 58.4 and 38.0 kJ mol−1, respectively. 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 sexa­dentate ligand 1,1,1-tris­[(salicyl­idene­amino)­meth­yl]ethane has been reported numerous times in its triply deprotonated form coordinated to transition metals and lanthanides, yet it has been rarely employed with main-group elements, including in substituted forms. Its structures with gallium and indium are reported as solvates, namely, ({[(2,2-bis­{[(2-oxido­benzyl­idene)amino-κ2N,O]meth­yl}prop­yl)imino]­meth­yl}phenololato-κ2N,O)gallium(III) pyridine monosolvate, [Ga(C26H24N3O3)]·C5H5N, the aceto­nitrile 0.75-solvate, [Ga(C26H24N3O3)]·0.75C2H3N, and ({[(2,2-bis­{[(2-oxido­benzyl­idene)amino-κ2N,O]meth­yl}prop­yl)imino]­meth­yl}phenololato-κ2N,O)indium(III) di­chloro­methane monosolvate, [In(C26H24N3O3)]·CH2Cl2. All three metal complexes are pseudo-octa­hedral and each structure contains multiple weak C—H⋯O and/or C—H⋯N inter­molecular hydrogen-bonding inter­actions. The syntheses and additional characterization in the forms of melting points, high-resolution mass spectra, infra-red (IR) spectra, and 1H and 13C NMR spectra are also reported.

The asymmetric unit of the title compound, C22H31NO3, comprises of one mol­ecule. The mol­ecule is not planar, with the carboxyl­ate ester group inclined by 33.47 (4)° to the heterocyclic ring. Individual mol­ecules are linked by aromaticC—H⋯Ocarbon­yl hydrogen bonds into chains running parallel to [001]. Slipped π–π stacking inter­actions between quinoline moieties link these chains into layers extending parallel to (100). Hirshfeld surface analysis, two-dimensional fingerprint plots and mol­ecular electrostatic potential surfaces were used to qu­antify the inter­molecular inter­actions present in the crystal, indicating that the most important contributions for the crystal packing are from H⋯H (72%), O⋯H/H⋯O (14.5%) and C⋯H/H⋯C (5.6%) inter­actions.

The condensation of 2-furoic hydrazide and 4-dimethyl amino­benzaldehyde in ethanol yielded a yellow solid formulated as the title compound, C14H15N3O2·H2O. The crystal packing is stabilized by inter­molecular O(water)—H⋯O,N(carbohydrazide) and N—H⋯O(water) hydrogen bonds, which form a two-dimensional network along the bc plane. Additional C—H⋯O inter­actions link the mol­ecules into a three-dimensional network. The dihedral angle between the mean planes of the benzene and the furan ring is 34.47 (6)°. The carbohydrazide moiety, i.e., the C=N—N—C=O fragment and the benzene ring are almost coplanar, with an angle of 6.75 (9)° between their mean planes.

The structure of the title compound, [CrCl2(C10H24N4)][Cr(HCONH2)2(C10H24N4)][ZnCl4]2 (C10H24N4 = 1,4,8,11-tetra­aza­cyclo­tetra­decane, cyclam; HCONH2 = formamide, fa), has been determined from synchrotron X-ray data. The asymmetric unit contains two independent halves of the [CrCl2(cyclam)]+ and [Cr(fa)(cyclam)]3+ cations, and one tetra­chlorido­zincate anion. In each complex cation, the CrIII ion is coordinated by the four N atoms of the cyclam ligand in the equatorial plane and two Cl ligands or two O-bonded formamide mol­ecules in a trans axial arrangement, displaying a distorted octa­hedral geometry with crystallographic inversion symmetry. The Cr—N(cyclam) bond lengths are in the range 2.061 (2) to 2.074 (2) Å, while the Cr—Cl and Cr—O(fa) bond distances are 2.3194 (7) and 1.9953 (19) Å, respectively. The macrocyclic cyclam moieties adopt the centrosymmetric trans-III conformation with six- and five-membered chelate rings in chair and gauche conformations. The crystal structure is stabilized by inter­molecular hydrogen bonds involving the NH or CH groups of cyclam and the NH2 group of coordinated formamide as donors, and Cl atoms of the ZnCl42− anion as acceptors.

The solid-state structure of bis­(1-mesityl-1H-imidazole-κN3)di­phenyl­boron tri­fluoro­methane­sulfonate, C36H38BN4+·CF3SO3− or (Ph2B(MesIm)2OTf), is reported. Bis(1-mesityl-1H-imidazole-κN3)di­phenyl­boron (Ph2B(MesIm)2+) is a bulky ligand that crystallizes in the ortho­rhom­bic space group Pbcn. The asymmetric unit contains one Ph2B(MesIm)2+ cationic ligand and one tri­fluoro­methane­sulfonate anion that balances the positive charge of the ligand. The tetra­hedral geometry around the boron center is distorted as a result of the steric bulk of the phenyl groups. Weak inter­actions, such as π–π stacking are present in the crystal structure.

The structures are described of two bis-chelated metal complexes of nickel(II) and copper(II) with S-n-hexyl 3-(1-phenyl­ethyl­idene)di­thio­carbazate Schiff bases in a cis configuration, namely, bis­[S-n-hexyl 3-(1-phenyl­ethyl­idene)di­thio­carbazato-κ2N3,S]nickel(II), [Ni(C15H21N2S2)2], and bis­[S-n-hexyl 3-(1-phenyl­ethyl­idene)di­thio­carbazato-κ2N3,S]copper(II), [Cu(C15H21N2S2)2]. In both complexes, the metals have distorted square-planar geometries. A search in the Cambridge Structural Database [Groom et al. (2016). Acta Cryst. B72, 171–179] for bis-chelated nickel(II) and copper(II) complexes with similar Schiff bases retrieved 55 and 36 hits for the two metals, respectively. An analysis of the geometrical parameters of complexes showing cis and trans configurations is reported and the values compared with those for the complexes described in this work.

The title compound, C18H16N2O3S, was synthesized by reaction of 2-mercapto-3-phenyl­quinazolin-4(3H)-one with ethyl chloro­acetate. The quinazoline ring forms a dihedral angle of 86.83 (5)° with the phenyl ring. The terminal methyl group is disordered by a rotation of about 60° in a 0.531 (13): 0.469 (13) ratio. In the crystal, C—H⋯O hydrogen-bonding inter­actions result in the formation of columns running in the [010] direction. Two parallel columns further inter­act by C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds. The most important contributions to the surface contacts are from H⋯H (48.4%), C⋯H/H⋯C (21.5%) and O⋯H/H⋯O (18.7%) inter­actions, as concluded from a Hirshfeld analysis.

The X-ray crystal structure of the title phthalazin-1-one derivative, C17H16N2O3S {systematic name: 2-[(2,4,6-tri­methyl­benzene)­sulfon­yl]-1,2-di­hydro­phthalazin-1-one}, features a tetra­hedral sulfoxide-S atom, connected to phthalazin-1-one and mesityl residues. The dihedral angle [83.26 (4)°] between the organic substituents is consistent with the mol­ecule having the shape of the letter V. In the crystal, phthalazinone-C6-C—H⋯O(sulfoxide) and π(phthalazinone-N2C4)–π(phthalazinone-C6) stacking [inter-centroid distance = 3.5474 (9) Å] contacts lead to a linear supra­molecular tape along the a-axis direction; tapes assemble without directional inter­actions between them. The analysis of the calculated Hirshfeld surfaces confirm the importance of the C—H⋯O and π-stacking inter­actions but, also H⋯H and C—H⋯C contacts. The calculation of the inter­action energies indicate the importance of dispersion terms with the greatest energies calculated for the C—H⋯O and π-stacking inter­actions.

The title compound, C23H28F3NO, is an ortho-hy­droxy Schiff base compound, which adopts the enol–imine tautomeric form in the solid state. The mol­ecular structure is not planar and the dihedral angle between the planes of the aromatic rings is 85.52 (10)°. The tri­fluoro­methyl group shows rotational disorder over two sites, with occupancies of 0.798 (6) and 0.202 (6). An intra­molecular O—H⋯N hydrogen bonding generates an S(6) ring motif. The crystal structure is consolidated by C—H⋯π inter­actions. The mol­ecular structure was optimized via density functional theory (DFT) methods with the B3LYP functional and LanL2DZ basis set. The theoretical structure is in good agreement with the experimental data. The frontier orbitals and mol­ecular electrostatic potential map were also examined by DFT computations.

The title compound, C22H17NO2·C3H7NO, was synthesized by condensation of an aromatic aldehyde with a secondary amine and subsequent reduction. It was crystallized from a di­methyl­formamide solution as a monosolvate, C22H17NO2·C3H7NO. The aromatic mol­ecule is non-planar with a dihedral angle between the mean planes of the aniline moiety and the methyl anthracene moiety of 81.36 (8)°. The torsion angle of the Car­yl—CH2—NH—Car­yl backbone is 175.9 (2)°. The crystal structure exhibits a three-dimensional supra­molecular network, resulting from hydrogen-bonding inter­actions between the carb­oxy­lic OH group and the solvent O atom as well as between the amine functionality and the O atom of the carb­oxy­lic group and additional C—H⋯π inter­actions. Hirshfeld surface analysis was performed to qu­antify the inter­molecular inter­actions.

In the title compound, C25H20O2, the central cyclo­hexenone ring adopts an envelope conformation. The mean plane of the cyclo­hexenone ring makes dihedral angles of 87.66 (11) and 23.76 (12)°, respectively, with the two attached phenyl rings, while it is inclined by 69.55 (11)° to the phenyl ring of the benzoyl group. In the crystal, the mol­ecules are linked by C—H⋯O and C—H⋯π inter­actions, forming a three-dimensional network.

The title compound, bis­(1,2-diphenyl-2-sulfanyl­idene­ethane­thiol­ato-κ2S,S')(1,3,5-tri­aza-7-phosphaadamantane-κP)cobalt(II) dichloromethane hemisolvate, [Co(pdt)2(PTA)]·0.5C2H4Cl2 or [Co(C14H10S2)2(C6H12N3P)]·0.5C2H4Cl2, contains two phenyl­dithiol­ene (pdt) ligands and a 1,3,5-tri­aza-7-phosphaadamantane (PTA) ligand bound to cobalt with the solvent 1,2-di­chloro­ethane mol­ecule located on an inversion center. The cobalt core exhibits an approximately square-pyramidal geometry with partially reduced thienyl radical monoanionic ligands. The supra­molecular network is consolidated by hydrogen-bonding inter­actions primarily with nitro­gen, sulfur and chlorine atoms, as well as parallel displaced π-stacking of the aryl rings. The UV–vis, IR, and CV data are also consistent with monoanionic di­thiol­ene ligands and an overall CoII oxidation state.
