    The title compound, C20H28O3, known as 'trichodermaerin' [systematic name: (4E)-4,9,15,16,16-penta-methyl-6-oxa-tetra-cyclo-[10.3.1.0(1,10).0(5,9)]hexa-dec-4-ene-7,13-dione], is a diterpene lactone which was isolated from Trichoderma asperellum. The structure has a tetra-cycic 6-5-7-5 ring system, with the cyclo-hexa-none ring adopting a twisted half-chair conformation and the cyclo-pentane ring adopting a half-chair conformation, whereas the cyclo-heptene and tetra-hydro-furan-anone rings are in chair and envelope (with the methyl-substituted C atom as the flap) conformations, respectively. The three-dimensional architecture is stabilized by C-H⋯O inter-actions.

    In the title ternary complex, C(10)H(9)N(2)(+).C(7)H(3)N(2)O(6)(-).C(7)H(4)N(2)O(6), the pyridinium cation adopts the role of the donor in an intermolecular N-H.O hydrogen-bonding interaction with the carboxylate group of the 3,5-dinitrobenzoate anion. The molecules of the ternary complex form molecular ribbons perpendicular to the b direction, which are stabilized by one N-H.O, one O-H.O and five C-H.O intermolecular hydrogen bonds. The ribbons are further interconnected by three intermolecular C-H.O hydrogen bonds into a three-dimensional network.

    The title compound, 3,5,7-triaza-1-azoniatricyclo[3.3.1.1(3,7)]decane 2,4-dinitrophenolate monohydrate, C6H13N4+*C6H3N2O5-*H2O, the 1:1 hydrate adduct of hexamethylenetetramine (HMT) and 2,4-dinitrophenol, undergoes a temperature phase transition. In the room-temperature phase, the adduct crystallizes in the monoclinic P2(1)/m space group, whereas in the low-temperature phase, the adduct crystallizes in the triclinic P1 space group. This phase transition is reversible, with the transition temperature at 273 K, and the phase transition is governed by hydrogen bonds and weak interactions. In both these temperature-dependent polymorphs, the crystal structure is alternately layered with sheets of hexamethylenetetramine and sheets of dinitrophenol stacked along the c axis. The hexamethylenetetramine and dinitrophenol moieties are linked by intermolecular hydrogen bonds. The water molecule in the adduct plays an important role, forming O-H...O hydrogen bonds which, together with C-H...O hydrogen bonds, bridge the adducts into molecular ribbons. Extra hydrogen bonds and weak interactions exist for the low-temperature polymorph and these interconnect the molecular ribbons into a three-dimensional packing structure. Also in these two temperature-dependent polymorphs, dinitrophenol acts as a hydrogen-bond acceptor and HMT acts as a hydrogen-bond donor.

    In the bis-chalcone mol-ecule of the title compound, C24H18O4·2C3H7NO, the central benzene and terminal hy-droxy-phenyl rings form a dihedral angle of 14.28 (11)° and the central C=C double bond adopts a trans configuration. In the crystal, the bis-chalcone and solvate mol-ecules are inter-connected via O-H⋯O hydrogen bonds, which were investigated by Hirshfeld surface analysis. Solid-state fluorescence was measured at λex = 4400 Å. The emission wavelength appeared at 5510 Å, which corresponds to yellow light and the solid-state fluorescence quantum yield (Ff) is 0.18.

    In the syn- and anticlinal isomers of the title compound, C(22)H(18)N(2)O(6), the indole moiety is not completely planar, with the pyrrolidine ring being distorted very slightly towards a conformation intermediate between half-chair and envelope. The molecular and packing structures in the crystals of these isomers are stabilized by C-H...O interactions.

    A sample of hydronium perchlorate, H(3)O(+) x ClO(4)(-), crystallized from ethanol at ambient temperature, was found to be orthorhombic (space group Pnma) at both 193 and 293 K, with no phase transition observed in this temperature range. This contrasts with the earlier observation [Nordman (1962). Acta Cryst. 15, 18-23] of a monoclinic phase (space group P2(1)/n) at 193 K for crystals grown at that temperature from perchloric acid. The hydronium and perchlorate ions lie across a mirror plane but it is not possible to define at either temperature a simple description of the H-atom positions due to the three-dimensional tumbling of the hydronium cation.

    3,6,11-trihy-droxy-1,1-dimethyl-2,3-di-hydro-chromeno[2,3-f]chromen-7-one monohydrate), known as pruniflorone N, crystallized as a monohydrate, C18H16O6·H2O. The three ring systems of the xanthone skeleton are approximately coplanar, with an r.m.s. deviation of 0.0270 (1) Å from the plane through the 14 non-H atoms. The O atoms of the two hy-droxy substituents on the benzene rings also lie close to this plane, with deviations of 0.019 (1) and 0.070 (1) Å. The 2'-hy-droxy-4',4'-di-methyl-pyran ring is disordered over two positions with a 0.798 (3):0.202 (3) site-occupancy ratio. An intra-molecular O-H⋯O hydrogen bond generates an S(6) ring motif. In the crystal, the xanthone and water mol-ecules are linked into a three-dimensional network by O-H⋯O hydrogen bonds and weak C-H⋯O inter-actions. π-π inter-actions, with centroid-centroid distances of 3.5982 (7), 3.6081 (7) and 3.6456 (7) Å, are also observed.

    In the ternary title compound, catena-poly[[silver(I)-mu-ethylenediamine-kappa(2)N:N'] 3-nitrobenzoate monohydrate], [[Ag(C(2)H(8)N(2))](C(7)H(4)NO(4)) x H(2)O](n), the Ag atom is bicoordinated in a linear configuration by two different N atoms from two symmetry-related ethylenediamine ligands, thus giving linear polymeric chains with an [-Ag-N-C-C-N-](n) backbone running parallel to the a axis. In the crystal packing, these linear chains are interconnected by N-H...O and O-H...O hydrogen bonds to form layers parallel to the ab plane.

    In the title 1/2/2 adduct, C(4)H(12)N(2)(2+) x 2C(6)H(3)N(2)O(5)(-) x 2H(2)O, the dication lies on a crystallographic inversion centre and the asymmetric unit also has one anion and one water molecule in general positions. The 2,4-dinitrophenolate anions and the water molecules are linked by two O-H...O and two C-H...O hydrogen bonds to form molecular ribbons, which extend along the b direction. The piperazine dication acts as a donor for bifurcated N-H...O hydrogen bonds with the phenolate O atom and with the O atom of the o-nitro group. Six symmetry-related molecular ribbons are linked to a piperazine dication by N---H.O and C---H.O hydrogen bonds.

    The title compound, C15H15NO4S, was obtained by the condensation of 4-amino-aceto-phenone and 4-meth-oxy-benzene-sulfonyl chloride. The dihedral angle between the benzene rings is 86.56 (9)° and the mol-ecule has an approximate V-shaped conformation. The C atom of the meth-oxy group is roughly coplanar with its attached ring [deviation = 0.177 (3) Å], as is the methyl C atom of the acetyl group with its ring [deviation = 0.065 (2) Å]. An intra-molecular C-H⋯O inter-action generates an S(6) ring. In the crystal, N-H⋯O and C-H⋯O hydrogen bonds link the mol-ecules into [010] chains. Weak C-H⋯π inter-actions are also observed.

The structure is built from molecular layers which are stabilized by three intermolecular O-H.O, two intermolecular O-H.N and four intermolecular C-H.O hydrogen bonds. The layers are further interconnected by one additional intermolecular O-H.N and two intermolecular C-H.O hydrogen bonds.

    Crystals of 1,6-hexanedioic acid (I) undergo a temperature-dependent reversible phase transition from monoclinic P21/c at a temperature higher than the critical temperature (Tc) 130 K to another monoclinic P21/c at temperature lower than Tc. The phase transition is of first order, involving a discontinuity and a tripling of the b-axis at Tc whereas the other unit cell parameters vary continuously. The transition is described by the phenomenological Landau theory. The crystal structure analyses for data collected at 297(2) K and 120.0(1) K show that there is half of a molecule of (I) in the asymmetric unit at 297(2) K whereas there are one and a half molecules of (I) in the asymmetric unit at 120.0(1) K. At both temperatures, 297(2) and 120.0(1) K, intermolecular O-H···O hydrogen bonds link the molecules of I into infinite 1D chains along [101] direction. However there are significantly more O-H···O hydrogen bonds presented in the 120.0(1) K polymorph, thereby indicating this phase transition is negotiated via hydrogen bonds. The relationship of the conformational changes and hydrogen bonding for these two polymorphs are explained in detail.

    The asymmetric unit of the title compound, [Ni(C15H14NO2)2], comprises an Ni(II) cation, lying on an inversion centre, and a Schiff base anion that acts as a bidentate ligand. The Ni(II) cation is in a square-planar coordination environment binding to the imine N and phenolate O atoms of the two Schiff base ligands. The N- and O-donor atoms of the two ligands are mutually trans, with Ni-N and Ni-O bond lengths of 1.9191 (11) and 1.8407 (9) Å, respectively. The plane of the meth-oxy-benzene ring makes a dihedral angle of 84.92 (6)° with that of the phenolate ring. In the crystal, mol-ecules are linked into screw chains by weak C-H⋯O hydrogen bonds. Additional C-H⋯O hydrogen bonds, together with C-H⋯π contacts, arrange the mol-ecules into sheets parallel to the ac plane.
