1,1',3,3'-Tetra­mesitylquinobis(imidazole)-2,2'-di­thione

The solid-state structural analysis of the title compound [systematic name: 5,11-disulfanylidene-4,6,10,12-tetrakis(2,4,6-trimethylphenyl)-4,6,10,12-tetraazatricyclo[7.3.0.03,7]dodeca-1(9),3(7)-diene-2,8-dione], C44H44N4O2S2 [+solvent], reveals that the mol­ecule crystallizes in a highly symmetric cubic space group so that one quarter of the mol­ecule is crystallographically unique, the mol­ecule lying on special positions (two mirror planes, two twofold axes and a center of inversion). The crystal structure exhibits large cavities of 193 Å3 accounting for 7.3% of the total unit-cell volume. These cavities contain residual density peaks but it was not possible to unambiguously identify the solvent therein. The contribution of the disordered solvent mol­ecules to the scattering was removed using a solvent mask and is not included in the reported mol­ecular weight. No classical hydrogen bonds are observed between the main mol­ecules.

(E)-1-(2-Hy­droxy-6-meth­oxy­phen­yl)-3-(2-meth­oxy­naphthalen-1-yl)prop-2-en-1-one

In the title compound, C21H18O4, the dihedral angle between the naphthelene ring system (r.m.s. deviation = 0.014 Å) and the benzene ring is 9.68 (1)°. The C atom of the meth­oxy group of the naphthalene ring system is almost coplanar with the ring [C—O—C—C = −2.0 (3)°], whereas the C atom of the meth­oxy group of the phenol ring is slightly twisted [C—O—C—C = 6.2 (3)°]. An intra­molecular O—H⋯O hydrogen bond generates an S(6) ring motif.

3-Bromo­pyridine-2-carbo­nitrile

The title compound, C6H3BrN2, also known as 3-bromo­picolino­nitrile, was synthesized by cyanation of 2,3-di­bromo­pyridine. In the solid state, short inter­molecular Br⋯N contacts are observed. Additionally, the crystal packing is consolidated by π–π stacking inter­actions with centroid–centroid distances of 3.7893 (9) Å.

3,3'-[(1E,1'E)-Hydrazine-1,2-diylidenebis(ethan-1-yl-1-yl­idene)]bis­(4-hy­droxy-6-methyl-2H-pyran-2-one)

The title compound, C16H16N2O6, lies about an inversion centre at the mid-point of the N—N bond. The mol­ecule features two intra­molecular O—H⋯N and two C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds, each of which forms an S(6) ring motif. In the crystal, mol­ecules are linked by C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds into infinite zigzag chains propagating along the c-axis direction. π–π stacking inter­actions between the pyrone rings [centroid–centroid distances = 3.975 (2) Å] stack the mol­ecules along b.

4-Amino-5-{[cyclo­hex­yl(meth­yl)amino]­meth­yl}iso­phthalo­nitrile

The title compound, C16H20N4, was synthesized by cyanation of brom­hexine. The compound crystallizes with two unique mol­ecules in the asymmetric unit. The substituted aniline and cyclo­hexane rings are inclined to one another by 37.26 (6)° in one mol­ecule and by 22.84 (7)° in the other. In the crystal packing, intra- and inter­molecular N—H⋯N hydrogen bonds and an inter­molecular C—H⋯N contact were observed.

Decacarbon­yl(μ-ethyl­idenimino-1κN:2κC)-μ-hydrido-triangulo-triosmium(3 Os–Os)

The title complex, [Os3(C2H4N)H(CO)10] or [Os3(CO)10(μ-H)(μ-HN=C—CH3-1κN:2κC)], was synthesized in 41.6% yield by reactions between Os3(CO)11(CH3CN) and 2,4,6-tri­methyl­hexa­hydro-1,3,5-triazine. The central osmium triangle has two OsI atoms bridged by a hydride ligand and a μ-HN= C—CH3-1κN:2κC triazine fragment. Three CO ligands complete the coordination sphere around each OsI atom, while the remaining Os0 atom has four CO ligands. Each Os atom exhibits a pseudo-octa­hedral coordination environment, discounting the bridging Os—Os bond.

5,13-Bis(4-meth­oxy­phen­yl)di­naphtho­[2,3-b:2',3'-d]thio­phene S,S-dioxide di­chloro­methane hemisolvate

The title com­pound, C34H24O4S·0.5CH2Cl2, crystallizes with two independent mol­ecules and one di­chloro­methane solvent mol­ecule in the asymmetric unit. The crystal packing is consolidated by C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds.

1-Isobutyl-8,9-dimeth­oxy-3-phenyl-5,6-dihidro­imidazo[5,1-a]isoquinolin-2-ium chloride

The molecular salt, C23H26N2O2+·Cl−, was obtained from 1-isobutyl-8,9-dimeth­oxy-3-phenyl-5,6-di­hydro­imidazo[5,1-a]iso­quinoline, which was synthesized by cyclo­condensation of α-benzoyl­amino-γ-methyl-N-[2-(3,4-di­meth­oxy­phen­yl)eth­yl]valeramide in the presence of phosphoryl chloride. The tetra­hydro­pyridine ring adopts a twist–boat conformation. In the crystal structure, centrosymmetric dimers are formed by N—H⋯Cl and C—H⋯Cl hydrogen bonds.

2,4-Di­chloro-6-[(2-hy­droxy-5-methyl­anilino)methyl­idene]cyclo­hexa-2,4-dienone

The title compound, C14H11Cl2NO2, has been prepared by the condensation of 3,5-di­chloro­salicyl­aldehyde and 2-amino-4-methyl­phenol. The asymmetric unit consists of two independent mol­ecules, both of which are almost planar; the dihedral angle between the two benzene rings is 10.61 (8)° for one mol­ecule and 2.46 (8)° for the other. There is an intra­molecular N—H⋯O hydrogen bond that generates S(6) ring motifs in each mol­ecule. In the crystal, the two independent mol­ecules are linked by O—H⋯O and C—H⋯Cl hydrogen bonds, forming a pseudo-inversion dimer. A π–π inter­action, with a centroid–centroid distance of 3.6065 (12) Å, is also observed.

9α-Hy­droxy-4,8-dimethyl-3'-phenyl-3,14-dioxatri­cyclo­[9.3.0.02,4]tetra­dec-7-en-13-one-12-spiro-5'-isoxazole monohydrate

In the title compound, C22H25NO5·H2O, the ten-membered ring displays an approximate chair–chair conformation, whereas the five-membered furan ring has an envelope conformation, with the C atom of the methine group adjacent to the spiro C atom as the flap. The isoxazole ring is almost planar and its plane is slightly inclined to the plane of the attached phenyl ring. The mean plane of the furan ring is nearly perpendicular to that of the isoxazole ring, as indicated by the dihedral angle between them of 89.39 (12)°. In the crystal, the organic mol­ecules are linked into [010] chains by O—H⋯O hydrogen bonds. The water mol­ecule forms O—H⋯O and O—H⋯N hydrogen bonds and a weak C—H⋯O inter­action is also observed. Together, these lead to a three-dimensional network.
