In the title hydrate, C9H12N4S·H2O (systematic name: 3-methyl-1-{(E)-[(3-methyl-pyridin-2-yl)methyl-idene]amino}-thio-urea monohydrate), a small twist is noted between the pyridine ring and the rest of the organic mol-ecule [dihedral angle = 6.96 (5)°]. The imine and pyridine N atoms are syn, and the amine H atoms are anti. The latter arrangement allows for the formation of an intra-molecular N-H⋯N(imine) hydrogen bond. Both the N-bonded H atoms form hydrogen bonds to symmetry-related water mol-ecules, and the latter forms O-H hydrogen bonds with the pyridine N and thione S atoms. These inter-actions lead to supra-molecular layers that stack along the a-axis direction with no specific inter-actions between them.
In the organic mol-ecule of the title hydrate, C11H15N3OS·H2O, {systematic name: 3-ethyl-1-{(E)-[1-(2-hy-droxy-phen-yl)ethyl-idene]amino}-thio-urea monohydrate}, a dihedral angle of 5.39 (2)° is formed between the hy-droxy-benzene ring and the non-H atoms comprising the side chain (r.m.s. deviation = 0.0625 Å), with the major deviation from planarity noted for the terminal ethyl group [the C-N-C-C torsion angle = -172.17 (13)°]. The N-H H atoms are syn and an intra-molecular hy-droxy-imine O-H⋯N hydrogen bond is noted. In the crystal, the N-bonded H atoms form hydrogen bonds to symmetry-related water mol-ecules, and the latter form donor inter-actions with the hy-droxy O atom and with a hy-droxy-benzene ring, forming a O-H⋯π inter-action. The hydrogen bonding leads to supra-molecular tubes aligned along the b axis. The tubes are connected into layers via C-H⋯O inter-actions, and these stack along the c axis with no directional inter-actions between them.
In the title compound, C25H26N2O2S2, the central CN2S2 atoms are almost coplanar (r.m.s. deviation = 0.0058 Å). One phenyl ring clearly lies to one side of the central plane, while the other is oriented in the plane but splayed. Despite the different relative orientations, the phenyl rings form similar dihedral angles of 64.90 (3) and 70.06 (3)° with the central plane, and 63.28 (4)° with each other. The benzene ring is twisted with respect to the central plane, forming a dihedral angle of 13.17 (7)°. The S2C=N, N-N and N-N=C bond lengths of 1.2919 (19), 1.4037 (17) and 1.2892 (19) Å, respectively, suggest limited conjugation over these atoms; the configuration about the N-N=C bond is E. An intra-molecular O-H⋯N hydrogen bond is noted. In the crystal, phen-yl-meth-oxy C-H⋯O and phen-yl-phenyl C-H⋯π inter-actions lead to supra-molecular double chains parallel to the b axis. These are connected into a layer via meth-yl-phenyl C-H⋯π inter-actions, and layers stack along the a axis, being connected by weak π-π inter-actions between phenyl rings [inter-centroid distance = 3.9915 (9) Å] so that a three-dimensional architecture ensues.
Two independent mol-ecules, A and B, comprise the asymmetric unit of the title compound, C20H21N3OSe. While the benzene ring directly bound to the central triazole ring is inclined to the same extent in both mol-ecules [dihedral angles = 40.41 (12) (mol-ecule A) and 44.14 (12)° (B)], greater differences are apparent in the dihedral angles between the Se-bound rings, i.e. 74.28 (12) (mol-ecule A) and 89.91 (11)° (B). Close intra-molecular Se⋯N inter-actions of 2.9311 (18) (mol-ecule A) and 2.9482 (18) Å (B) are noted. In the crystal, supra-molecular chains along the a axis are formed via O-H⋯N hydrogen bonding. These are connected into layers via C-H⋯O and C-H⋯N inter-actions; these stack along (01-1) without directional inter-molecular inter-actions between them.
In the title compound, C10H11BrS2, the 1,3-di-thiane ring has a chair conformation with the 1,4-disposed C atoms being above and below the remaining four atoms. The bromo-benzene ring occupies an equatorial position and forms a dihedral angle of 86.38 (12)° with the least-squares plane through the 1,3-di-thiane ring. Thus, to a first approximation the mol-ecule has mirror symmetry with the mirror containing the bromo-benzene ring and the 1,4-disposed C atoms of the 1,3-di-thiane ring. In the crystal, mol-ecules associate via weak methyl-ene-bromo-benzene C-H⋯π and π-π [Cg⋯Cg = 3.7770 (14) Å for centrosymmetrically related bromo-benzene rings] inter-actions, forming supra-molecular layers parallel to [10-1]; these stack with no specific inter-molecular inter-actions between them.
In the title compound, C26H22N2O2, the dihedral angles between the 1-methyl-indole units (A and B) and the benzoic acid moiety (C) are A/B = 64.87 (7), A/C = 80.92 (8) and B/C = 75.05 (8)°. An intra-molecular C-H⋯O inter-action arising from the methyne group helps to establish the conformation. In the crystal, R22(8) carb-oxy-lic acid inversion dimers linked by pairs of O-H⋯O hydrogen bonds are observed. A Hirshfeld surface analysis shows that the greatest contributions are from H⋯H, C⋯H/H⋯C and O⋯H/H⋯O contacts (percentage values = 54.6%, 29.6% and 10.1%, respectively).
The title compound, C16H15N5O2, adopts the shape of the letter L with the dihedral angle between the outer pyridyl rings being 78.37 (5)°; the dihedral angles between the central pyrazolyl ring (r.m.s. deviation = 0.0023 Å) and the methyl-ene-bound pyridyl and methyoxypyridyl rings are 77.68 (5) and 7.84 (10)°, respectively. Intra-molecular amide-N-H⋯N(pyrazol-yl) and pyridyl-C-H⋯O(amide) inter-actions are evident and these preclude the participation of the amide-N-H and O atoms in inter-molecular inter-actions. The most notable feature of the mol-ecular packing is the formation of linear supra-molecular chains aligned along the b-axis direction mediated by weak carbonyl-C=O⋯π(triazol-yl) inter-actions. An analysis of the calculated Hirshfeld surfaces point to the importance of H⋯H (46.4%), C⋯H (22.4%), O⋯H (11.9%) and N⋯H (11.1%) contacts in the crystal.
In the title di-thio-carbazate ester, C16H17N3S2 (systematic name: (Z)-{[(benzyl-sulfan-yl)methane-thio-yl]amino}[1-(6-methyl-pyridin-2-yl)ethyl-idene]amine), the central methyl-idenehydrazinecarbodi-thio-ate (C2N2S2) core is almost planar (r.m.s. deviation = 0.0111 Å) and forms dihedral angles of 71.67 (3)° with the approximately orthogonally inclined thio-ester phenyl ring, and 7.16 (7)° with the approximately coplanar substituted pyridyl ring. The latter arrangement and the Z configuration about the imine-C=N bond allows for the formation of an intra-molecular hydrazine-N-H⋯N(pyrid-yl) hydrogen bond that closes an S(6) loop. In the crystal, phenyl-C-H⋯S(thione), methyl-ene-C-H⋯π(pyrid-yl), methyl-ene- and phenyl-C-H⋯π(phen-yl) contacts connect mol-ecules into supra-molecular layers propagating in the bc plane; the layers stack along the a axis with no directional inter-actions between them. The analysis of the Hirshfeld surface indicates the relative importance of an intra-layer phenyl-H⋯H(pyrid-yl) contact upon the mol-ecular packing.
The title thio-urea derivative, C17H19N3OS, adopts a U-shaped conformation with the dihedral angle between the terminal aromatic rings being 73.64 (5)°. The major twist in the mol-ecule occurs about the ethane bond with the Ci-Ce-Ce-Cb torsion angle being -78.12 (18)°; i = imine, e = ethane and b = benzene. The configuration about the imine bond is E, the N-bound H atoms lie on opposite sides of the mol-ecule and an intra-molecular amine-N-H⋯N(imine) hydrogen bond is evident. In the mol-ecular packing, hydroxyl-O-H⋯S(thione) and amine-N-H⋯O hydrogen bonding feature within a linear, supra-molecular chain. The chains are connected into a layer in the ab plane by a combination of methyl-ene-C-H⋯S(thione), methyl-ene-C-H⋯O(hydrox-yl), methyl-C-H⋯π(phen-yl) and phenyl-C-H⋯π(hy-droxy-benzene) inter-actions. The layers stack without directional inter-actions between them. The analysis of the calculated Hirshfeld surface highlights the presence of weak methyl-C-H⋯O(hydrox-yl) and H⋯H inter-actions in the inter-layer region. Computational chemistry indicates that dispersion energy is the major contributor to the overall stabilization of the mol-ecular packing.
The title zinc bis-(thio-semicarbazone) complex, [Zn(C22H17N4O2S)2], comprises two N,S-donor anions, leading to a distorted tetra-hedral N2S2 donor set. The resultant five-membered chelate rings are nearly planar and form a dihedral angle of 73.28 (3)°. The configurations about the endocyclic- and exocyclic-imine bonds are Z and E, respectively, and that about the ethyl-ene bond is E. The major differences in the conformations of the ligands are seen in the dihedral angles between the chelate ring and nitro-benzene rings [40.48 (6) cf. 13.18 (4)°] and the N-bound phenyl and nitro-benzene ring [43.23 (8) and 22.64 (4)°]. In the crystal, a linear supra-molecular chain along the b-axis direction features amine-N-H⋯O(nitro) hydrogen bonding. The chains assemble along the 21-screw axis through a combination of phenyl-C-H⋯O(nitro) and π(chelate ring)-π(phen-yl) contacts. The double chains are linked into a three-dimensional architecture through phenyl-C-H⋯O(nitro) and nitro-O⋯π(phen-yl) inter-actions.
The asymmetric unit of the centrosymmetric title salt, C17H17F6N2O+·C2Cl3O2 -, comprises a single ion-pair. The hy-droxy-O and ammonium-N atoms lie to the same side of the cation, a disposition maintained by a charge-assisted ammonium-N-H⋯O(hy-droxy) hydrogen bond [the Oh-Cm-Cm-Na (h = hy-droxy, m = methine, a = ammonium) torsion angle is 58.90 (19)°]. The piperidin-1-ium group is approximately perpendicular to the quinolinyl residue [Cq-Cm-Cm-Na (q = quinolin-yl) is -178.90 (15)°] so that the cation, to a first approximation, has the shape of the letter L. The most prominent feature of the supra-molecular association in the crystal is the formation of chains along the a-axis direction, being stabilized by charge-assisted hydrogen-bonds. Thus, ammonium-N+-H⋯O-(carboxyl-ate) hydrogen bonds are formed whereby two ammonium cations bridge a pair of carboxyl-ate-O atoms, leading to eight-membered {⋯O⋯HNH}2 synthons. The resulting four-ion aggregates are linked into the supra-molecular chain via charge-assisted hydroxyl-O-H⋯O-(carboxyl-ate) hydrogen bonds. The connections between the chains, leading to a three-dimensional architecture, are of the type C-X⋯π, for X = Cl and F. The analysis of the calculated Hirshfeld surface points to the importance of X⋯H contacts to the surface (X = F, 25.4% and X = Cl, 19.7%) along with a significant contribution from O⋯H hydrogen-bonds (10.2%). Conversely, H⋯H contacts, at 12.4%, make a relatively small contribution to the surface.
The crystal and mol-ecular structures of the title mol-ecular salts, C4H12NO+·C7H5N2O4 -, (I), C6H16NO+·C7H5N2O4 -, (II), and C4H12NO3 +·C7H5N2O4 -, (III), are described. The common feature of these salts is the presence of the 2-amino-4-nitro-benzoate anion, which exhibit non-chemically significant variations in the conformational relationships between the carboxyl-ate and nitro groups, and between these and the benzene rings they are connected to. The number of ammonium-N-H H atoms in the cations increases from one to three in (I) to (III), respectively, and this variation significantly influences the supra-molecular aggregation patterns in the respective crystals. Thus, a linear supra-molecular chain along [100] sustained by charge-assisted tertiary-ammonium-N-H⋯O(carboxyl-ate), hy-droxy-O-H⋯O(carboxyl-ate) and amino-N-H⋯O(carboxyl-ate) hydrogen-bonds is apparent in the crystal of (I). Chains are connected into a three-dimensional architecture by methyl-C-H⋯O(hy-droxy) and π-π inter-actions, the latter between benzene rings [inter-centroid separation = 3.5796 (10) Å]. In the crystal of (II), a supra-molecular tube propagating along [901] arises as a result of charge-assisted secondary-ammonium-N-H⋯O(carboxyl-ate) and hy-droxy-O-H⋯O(carboxyl-ate) hydrogen-bonding. These are connected by methyl-ene- and methyl-C-H⋯O(nitro) and π-π stacking between benzene rings [inter-centroid separation = 3.5226 (10) Å]. Finally, double-layers parallel to (100) sustained by charge-assisted ammonium-N-H⋯O(carboxyl-ate), ammonium-N-H⋯O(hy-droxy) and hy-droxy-O-H⋯O(carboxyl-ate) hydrogen-bonds are apparent in the crystal of (III). These are connected in a three-dimensional architecture by amine-N-H⋯O(nitro) hydrogen-bonds.
The asymmetric unit of the title co-crystal, 2,2'-thiodi-benzoic acid-tri-phenyl-phosphane oxide (1/2), C14H10O4S·2C18H15OP, comprises two mol-ecules of 2,2'-thiodi-benzoic acid [TDBA; systematic name: 2-[(2-carb-oxy-phen-yl)sulfan-yl]benzoic acid] and four mol-ecules of tri-phenyl-phosphane oxide [TPPO; systematic name: (di-phenyl-phosphor-yl)benzene]. The two TDBA mol-ecules are twisted about their di-sulfide bonds and exhibit dihedral angles of 74.40 (5) and 72.58 (5)° between the planes through the two SC6H4 residues. The carb-oxy-lic acid groups are tilted out of the planes of the rings to which they are attached forming a range of CO2/C6 dihedral angles of 19.87 (6)-60.43 (8)°. Minor conformational changes are exhibited in the TPPO mol-ecules with the range of dihedral angles between phenyl rings being -2.1 (1) to -62.8 (1)°. In the mol-ecular packing, each TDBA acid mol-ecule bridges two TPPO mol-ecules via hy-droxy-O-H⋯O(oxide) hydrogen bonds to form two three-mol-ecule aggregates. These are connected into a three-dimensional architecture by TPPO-C-H⋯O(oxide, carbon-yl) and TDBA-C-H⋯(oxide, carbon-yl) inter-actions. The importance of H⋯H, O⋯H/H⋯O and C⋯H/H⋯C contacts to the calculated Hirshfeld surfaces has been demonstrated. In terms of individual mol-ecules, O⋯H/H⋯O contacts are more important for the TDBA (ca 28%) than for the TPPO mol-ecules (ca 13%), as expected from the chemical composition of these species. Computational chemistry indicates the four independent hy-droxy-O-H⋯O(oxide) hydrogen bonds in the crystal impart about the same energy (ca 52 kJ mol-1), with DTBA-phenyl-C-H⋯O(oxide) inter-actions being next most stabilizing (ca 40 kJ mol-1).
The mol-ecular structure of the title compound, C13H7Cl3OS, consists of a 2,5- di-chloro-thio-phene ring and a 2-chloro-phenyl ring linked via a prop-2-en-1-one spacer. The dihedral angle between the 2,5-di-chloro-thio-phene and 2-chloro-phenyl rings is 9.69 (12)°. The mol-ecule has an E configuration about the C=C bond and the carbonyl group is syn with respect to the C=C bond. The mol-ecular conformation is stabilized by two intra-molecular C-H⋯Cl contacts and one intra-molecular C-H⋯O contact, forming S(5)S(5)S(6) ring motifs. In the crystal, the mol-ecules are linked along the a-axis direction through van der Waals forces and along the b axis by face-to-face π-stacking between the thio-phene rings and between the benzene rings of neighbouring mol-ecules, forming corrugated sheets lying parallel to the bc plane. The inter-molecular inter-actions in the crystal packing were further analysed using Hirshfield surface analysis, which indicates that the most significant contacts are Cl⋯H/ H⋯Cl (28.6%), followed by C⋯H/H⋯C (11.9%), C⋯C (11.1%), H⋯H (11.0%), Cl⋯Cl (8.1%), O⋯H/H⋯O (8.0%) and S⋯H/H⋯S (6.6%).
In the title chalcone derivative, C15H9BrCl2O, the aryl rings are inclined to each by 14.49 (17)°, and the configuration about the C=C bond is E. There is a short intra-molecular C-H⋯Cl contact present resulting in the formation of an S(6) ring motif. In the crystal, the shortest inter-molecular contacts are Cl⋯O contacts [3.173 (3) Å] that link the mol-ecules to form a 21 helix propagating along the b-axis direction. The helices stack up the short crystallographic a axis, and are linked by offset π-π inter-actions [inter-centroid distance = 3.983 (1) Å], forming layers lying parallel to the ab plane. A qu-anti-fication of the inter-molecular contacts in the crystal were estimated using Hirshfeld surface analysis and two-dimensional fingerprint plots.
The title compound, C16H18N2O3, is constructed about a central oxopyridazinyl ring (r.m.s. deviation = 0.0047 Å), which is connected to an ethyl-acetate group at the N atom closest to the carbonyl group, and benzyl and methyl groups second furthest and furthest from the carbonyl group, respectively. An approximately orthogonal relationship exists between the oxopyridazinyl ring and the best plane through the ethyl-acetate group [dihedral angle = 77.48 (3)°]; the latter lies to one side of the central plane [the Nr-Nr-Cm-Cc (r = ring, m = methyl-ene, c = carbon-yl) torsion angle being 104.34 (9)°]. In the crystal, both H atoms of the N-bound methyl-ene group form methyl-ene-C-H⋯O(ring carbon-yl) or N(pyridazin-yl) inter-actions, resulting in the formation of a supra-molecular tape along the a-axis direction. The tapes are assembled into a three-dimensional architecture by methyl- and phenyl-C-H⋯O(ring carbon-yl) and phenyl-C-H⋯O(ester carbon-yl) inter-actions. The analysis of the calculated Hirshfeld surface indicates the dominance of H⋯H contacts to the overall surface (i.e. 52.2%). Reflecting other identified points of contact between mol-ecules noted above, O⋯H/H⋯O (23.3%), C⋯H/H⋯C (14.7%) and N⋯H/H⋯N (6.6%) contacts also make significant contributions to the surface.
The analysis of atom-to-atom and/or residue-to-residue contacts remains a favoured mode of analysing the mol-ecular packing in crystals. In this contribution, additional tools are highlighted as methods for analysis in order to complement the 'crystallographer's tool', PLATON [Spek (2009). Acta Cryst. D65, 148-155]. Thus, a brief outline of the procedures and what can be learned by using Crystal Explorer [Spackman & Jayatilaka (2009). CrystEngComm 11, 19-23] is presented. Attention is then directed towards evaluating the nature, i.e. attractive/weakly attractive/repulsive, of specific contacts employing NCIPLOT [Johnson et al. (2010). J. Am. Chem. Soc. 132, 6498-6506]. This is complemented by a discussion of the calculation of energy frameworks utilizing the latest version of Crystal Explorer. All the mentioned programs are free of charge and straightforward to use. More importantly, they complement each other to give a more complete picture of how mol-ecules assemble in mol-ecular crystals.
The title compound, 2C14H14N4O·H2O, comprises a neutral mol-ecule containing a central pyrazol-3-one ring flanked by an N-bound phenyl group and a C-bound 5-methyl-1H-pyrazol-3-yl group (at positions adjacent to the carbonyl substituent), its zwitterionic tautomer, whereby the N-bound proton of the central ring is now resident on the pendant ring, and a water mol-ecule of crystallization. Besides systematic variations in geometric parameters, the two independent organic mol-ecules have broadly similar conformations, as seen in the dihedral angle between the five-membered rings [9.72 (9)° for the neutral mol-ecule and 3.32 (9)° for the zwitterionic tautomer] and in the dihedral angles between the central and pendant five-membered rings [28.19 (8) and 20.96 (8)° (neutral mol-ecule); 11.33 (9) and 11.81 (9)°]. In the crystal, pyrazolyl-N-H⋯O(carbon-yl) and pyrazolium-N-H⋯N(pyrazol-yl) hydrogen bonds between the independent organic mol-ecules give rise to non-symmetric nine-membered {⋯HNNH⋯NC3O} and {⋯HNN⋯HNC3O} synthons, which differ in the positions of the N-bound H atoms. These aggregates are connected into a supra-molecular layer in the bc plane by water-O-H⋯N(pyrazolide), water-O-H⋯O(carbon-yl) and pyrazolyl-N-H⋯O(water) hydrogen bonding. The layers are linked into a three-dimensional architecture by methyl-C-H⋯π(phen-yl) inter-actions. The different inter-actions, in particular the weaker contacts, formed by the organic mol-ecules are clearly evident in the calculated Hirshfeld surfaces, and the calculated electrostatic potentials differentiate the tautomers.
The asymmetric unit of the title compound, C13H11N3O2S2, comprises two independent mol-ecules (A and B); the crystal structure was determined by employing synchrotron radiation. The mol-ecules exhibit essentially the same features with an almost planar benzo-thia-zole ring (r.m.s. deviation = 0.026 and 0.009 Å for A and B, respectively), which forms an inclined dihedral angle with the phenyl ring [28.3 (3) and 29.1 (3)°, respectively]. A difference between the mol-ecules is noted in a twist about the N-S bonds [the C-S-N-N torsion angles = -56.2 (5) and -68.8 (5)°, respectively], which leads to a minor difference in orientation of the phenyl rings. In the mol-ecular packing, A and B are linked into a supra-molecular dimer via pairwise hydrazinyl-N-H⋯N(thiazol-yl) hydrogen bonds. Hydrazinyl-N-H⋯O(sulfon-yl) hydrogen bonds between A mol-ecules assemble the dimers into chains along the a-axis direction, while links between centrosymmetrically related B mol-ecules, leading to eight-membered {⋯HNSO}2 synthons, link the mol-ecules along [001]. The result is an undulating supra-molecular layer. Layers stack along the b-axis direction with benzo-thia-zole-C-H⋯O(sulfon-yl) points of contact being evident. The analyses of the calculated Hirshfeld surfaces confirm the relevance of the above inter-molecular inter-actions, but also serve to further differentiate the weaker inter-molecular inter-actions formed by the independent mol-ecules, such as π-π inter-actions. This is also highlighted in distinctive energy frameworks calculated for the individual mol-ecules.
