Three N2‐benzoyl­oxybenz­amidines: sheet structures built from hard and soft hydrogen bonds and aromatic π–π stacking interactions

Molecules of the title compounds N²‐(benzoyl­oxy)­benz­ami­dine, C₁₄H₁₂N₂O₂, (I), N²‐(2‐hydroxy­benzoyl­oxy)­benz­ami­dine, C₁₄H₁₂N₂O₃, (II), and N²‐benzoyloxy‐2‐hydroxybenzamidine, C₁₄H₁₂N₂O₃, (III), all have extended chain conformations, with the aryl groups remote from one another. In (I), the mol­ecules are linked into chains by a single N—H⋯N hydrogen bond [H⋯N = 2.15 Å, N⋯N = 3.029 (2) Å and N—H⋯N = 153°] and these chains are linked into sheets by means of aromatic π–π stacking interactions. There is one intramolecular O—H⋯O hydrogen bond in (II), and a combination of one three‐centre N—H⋯(N,O) hydrogen bond [H⋯N = 2.46 Å, H⋯O = 2.31 Å, N⋯N = 3.190 (2) Å, N⋯O = 3.146 (2) Å, N—H⋯N = 138° and N—H⋯O = 154°] and one two‐centre C—H⋯O hydrogen bond [H⋯O = 2.46 Å, C⋯O = 3.405 (2) Å and C—H⋯O = 173°] links the mol­ecules into sheets. In (III), an intramolecular O—H⋯N hydrogen bond and two N—H⋯O hydrogen bonds [H⋯O = 2.26 and 2.10 Å, N⋯O = 2.975 (2) and 2.954 (2) Å, and N—H⋯O = 138 and 163°] link the molecules into sheets.     

2‐Amino‐5‐nitro­thia­zole monoethanol solvate: triply‐interwoven hydrogen‐bonded sheets containing centrosymmetric R(8) and R(38) rings

2‐Amino‐5‐nitro­thia­zole crystallizes from solution in ethanol as a monosolvate, C₃H₃N₃O₂S·C₂H₆O, in which the thia­zole component has a strongly polarized molecular–electronic structure. The thia­zole mol­ecules are linked into centrosymmetric dimers by paired N—H⋯N hydrogen bonds [H⋯N = 2.09 Å, N⋯N = 2.960 (6) Å and N—H⋯N = 169°], and these dimers are linked by the ethanol mol­ecules, via a two‐centred N—H⋯O hydrogen bond [H⋯O = 1.98 Å, N⋯O = 2.838 (5) Å and N—H⋯O = 164°] and a planar asymmetric three‐centred O—H⋯(O)₂ hydrogen bond [H⋯O = 2.07 and 2.53 Å, O⋯O = 2.900 (5) and 3.188 (5) Å, O—H⋯O = 169 and 136°, and O⋯H⋯O = 55°], into sheets built from alternating (8) and (38) rings. These sheets are triply interwoven.     

N‐(3H‐Thia­zol‐2‐yl­idene)­nitr­amine and N‐methyl‐N‐(thia­zol‐2‐yl)­nitr­amine

The geometries of the thia­zole ring and the nitr­amino groups in N‐(3H‐thia­zol‐2‐yl­idene)­nitr­amine, C₃H₃N₃O₂S, (I), and N‐­methyl‐N‐(thia­zol‐2‐yl)­nitr­amine, C₄H₅N₃O₂S, (II), are very similar. The nitr­amine group in (II) is planar and twisted along the C—N bond with respect to the thia­zole ring. In both structures, the asymmetric unit includes two practically equal mol­ecules. In (I), the mol­ecules are arranged in layers connected to each other by N—H⋯N and much weaker C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds. In the crystal structure of (II), the mol­ecules are arranged in layers bound to each other by both weak C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds and S⋯O dipolar interactions.     

7,8‐Dihydr­oxy‐4‐propyl‐1,2,3,4,4a,5,6,10b‐octa­hydro­benzo[f]quinolinium bromide monohydrate,a dopamine agonist

In the crystal structure of the title dopamine­rgic compound, C₁₆H₂₄NO₂⁺·Br⁻·H₂O, protonation occurs at the piperidine N atom. The piperidine ring adopts a chair conformation and the cyclo­hexene ring adopts a half‐chair conformation; together with the planar benzene ring, this results in a relatively planar shape for the whole mol­ecule. Classical hydrogen bonds (N—H⋯Br, O—H⋯Br and O—H⋯O) produce an infinite three‐dimensional network. Hydrogen bonds between water ­mol­ecules and Br⁻ anions create centrosymmetric rings throughout the crystal structure. Structural comparison of the mol­ecule with the ergoline dopamine agonist pergolide shows that it is the hydrogen‐bond‐forming hydr­oxy or imino group that is necessary for dopamine­rgic activity, rather than the presence of a phenyl or a pyrrole ring per se.     

Hydro­gen‐bonded supramolecular motifs in 4,4′‐bipyridinium 8‐hydroxy‐7‐iodo­quinoline‐5‐sulfonate dihydrate

In the title compound, C₁₀H₉N₂⁺·C₉H₅INO₄S⁻·2H₂O, the 4,4′‐bi­pyridine mol­ecule is protonated at one of the pyridine N atoms. These moieties self‐assemble into a supramolecular chain along the a axis through N—H⋯N hydrogen bonds. The quinolinol OH group acts as a donor with respect to a sulfonate O atom [O—H⋯O(sulfonate)] and acts as an acceptor with respect to a C—H group of ferron [C—H⋯O(hydroxy)], forming a supramolecular chain along the b axis. These two types of supramolecular chains (one type made up of bi­pyridine motifs and the other made up of sulfoxine motifs) interact viaπ–π stacking, generating a three‐dimensional framework. These chains are further crosslinked by C—­H⋯O hydrogen bonds and O—H⋯O hydrogen bonds involving water mol­ecules.     

C[triple‐bond]C—H systems as hydrogen‐bond donors and acceptors: trans‐1,2‐diethynylcyclo­hexane‐1,2‐diol and trans‐1,4‐diprop‐2‐ynylcyclo­hexane‐1,4‐diol monohydrate

The title 1,2‐diol derivative, C₁₀H₁₂O₂, crystallizes with two independent but closely similar mol­ecules in the asymmetric unit. Only two of the four OH groups are involved in classical hydrogen bonding; the mol­ecules thereby associate to form chains parallel to the short c axis. The other two OH groups are involved in O—H⋯(C[triple‐bond]C) systems. Additionally, three of the four C[triple‐bond]C—H groups act as donors in C—H⋯O inter­actions. The 1,4‐diol derivative crystallizes with two independent half‐mol­ecules of the diol (each associated with an inversion centre) and one water mol­ecule in the asymmetric unit, C₁₂H₁₆O₂·H₂O. Both OH groups and one water H atom act as classical hydrogen‐bond donors, leading to layers parallel to the ac plane. The second water H atom is involved in a three‐centre contact to two C[triple‐bond]C bonds. One acetyl­enic H atom makes a very short `weak' hydrogen bond to a hydr­oxy O atom, and the other is part of a three‐centre system in which the acceptors are a hydroxy O atom and a C[triple‐bond]C bond.     

π‐Stacked hydrogen‐bonded dimers in 2‐(2‐nitro­phenyl­amino­carbonyl)­benzoic acid,and hydrogen‐bonded sheets in orthorhombic and monoclinic polymorphs of 2‐(4‐nitro­phenyl­amino­carbonyl)­benzoic acid

Molecules of 2‐(2‐nitrophenylaminocarbonyl)benzoic acid, C₁₄H₁₀N₂O₅, are linked into centrosymmetric R(8) dimers by a single O—H⋯O hydrogen bond [H⋯O = 1.78 Å, O⋯O = 2.623 (2) Å and O—H⋯O = 178°] and these dimers are linked into sheets by a single aromatic π–π stacking interaction. The isomeric compound 2‐(4‐nitrophenylaminocarbonyl)benzoic acid crystallizes in two polymorphic forms. In the orthorhombic form (space group P2₁2₁2₁ with Z′ = 1, crystallized from ethanol), the mol­ecules are linked into sheets of R(22) rings by a combination of one N—H⋯O hydrogen bond [H⋯O = 1.96 Å, N⋯O = 2.833 (3) Å and N—H⋯O = 171°] and one O—H⋯O hydrogen bond [H⋯O = 1.78 Å, O⋯O = 2.614 (3) Å and O—H⋯O = 173°]. In the monoclinic form (space group P2₁/n with Z′ = 2, crystallized from acetone), the mol­ecules are linked by a combination of two N—H⋯O hydrogen bonds [H⋯O = 2.09 and 2.16 Å, N⋯O = 2.873 (4) and 2.902 (3) Å, and N—H⋯O = 147 and 141°] and two O—H⋯O hydrogen bonds [H⋯O = 1.84 and 1.83 Å, O⋯O = 2.664 (3) and 2.666 (3) Å, and O—H⋯O = 166 and 174°] into sheets of some complexity. These sheets are linked into a three‐dimensional framework by a single C—H⋯O hydrogen bond [H⋯O = 2.45 Å, C⋯O = 3.355 (4) Å and C—­H⋯O = 160°].     

Ethyl N‐[2‐(hydroxy­acetyl)­phenyl]­carbamate,ethyl N‐[2‐(hydroxy­acetyl)‐4‐iodo­phenyl]­carbamate and ethyl N‐[2‐(hydroxy­acetyl)‐4‐methyl­phenyl]­carbamate

In ethyl N‐[2‐(hydroxy­acetyl)phenyl]carbamate, C₁₁H₁₃NO₄, all of the non‐H atoms lie on a mirror plane in the space group Pnma; the mol­ecules are linked into simple chains by a single C—H⋯O hydrogen bond. The mol­ecules of ethyl N‐[2‐(hydroxy­acetyl)‐4‐iodo­phenyl]carbamate, C₁₁H₁₂INO₄, are linked into sheets by a combination of O—H⋯I and C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds and a dipolar I⋯O contact. Ethyl N‐­[2‐(hydroxy­acetyl)‐4‐methyl­phenyl]carbamate, C₁₂H₁₅NO₄, crystallizes with Z′ = 2 in the space group P; pairs of mol­ecules are weakly linked by an O—H⋯O hydrogen bond and these aggregates are linked into chains by two independent aromatic π–π stacking inter­actions.     

(R)‐N‐[(R)‐1‐(2‐Hydroxy‐5‐methyl­phenyl)‐2‐phenyl­ethyl]‐2‐methyl‐1‐phenyl­propyl­ammonium chloride

In the title compound, C₂₅H₃₀NO⁺·Cl⁻, the mol­ecules are linked by a combination of inter­molecular N—H⋯Cl and O—H⋯Cl hydrogen bonds and intra­molecular N—H⋯O hydrogen bonds. The absolute configuration of the new stereogenic centre (the C atom adjacent to the N atom on the phenol side) is determined to have an R configuration.     

(Z)‐6‐{[1,3‐Dihydroxy‐2‐(hydroxy­methyl)propan‐2‐ylamino]methyl­ene}‐2‐methoxy‐4‐[(E)‐o‐tolyl­diazenyl]­cyclo­hexa‐2,4‐dienone

The title compound, C₁₉H₂₃N₃O₅, adopts the keto–amine tautomeric form with the hydr­oxy H atom located on the N atom, where it is involved in a strong intra­molecular N—H⋯O hydrogen bond. The compound exhibits trans geometry with respect to the azo N=N double bond, with a dihedral angle between the two benzene rings of 38.03 (6)°. The packing of the mol­ecules in the crystal structure is determined by O—H⋯O and C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds. A comparison with closely related compounds is given.     

Moxifloxacinium chloride–water–methanol (2/1/1), a novel anti­bacterial agent

Moxifloxacin, a novel fluoro­quinolone with a broad spectrum of anti­bacterial activity, is available as the solvated monohydro­chloride salt 7‐[(S,S)‐2‐aza‐8‐azoniabicyclo­[4.3.0]non‐8‐yl]‐1‐cyclo­propyl‐6‐fluoro‐8‐meth­oxy‐4‐oxo‐1,4‐dihydroquinoline‐3‐carboxylic acid chloride–water–methanol (2/1/1), C₂₁H₂₅FN₃O₄⁺·Cl⁻·0.5H₂O·0.5CH₃OH. The asymmetric unit contains two cations, two chloride ions, a mol­ecule of water and one methanol mol­ecule. The two cations adopt conformations that differ by an almost 180° rotation with respect to the piperidinopyrrolidine side chain. The cyclo­propyl ring and the meth­oxy group are not coplanar with the quinoline ring system. The carboxylic acid function, the protonated terminal piperidyl N atom, the water mol­ecule, the chloride ion and the methanol mol­ecule participate in O—H⋯O, O—H⋯Cl, N—H⋯O and N—H⋯Cl hydrogen bonding, linking the mol­ecules into extended two‐dimensional networks.     

Three isomeric forms of hydroxyphenyl‐2‐oxazoline: 2‐(2‐hydroxyphenyl)‐2‐oxazoline, 2‐(3‐hydroxyphenyl)‐2‐oxazoline and 2‐(4‐hydroxyphenyl)‐2‐oxazoline

Crystal structures are reported for three isomeric compounds, namely 2‐(2‐hydroxy­phenyl)‐2‐oxazoline, (I), 2‐(3‐hydroxy­phenyl)‐2‐oxazoline, (II), and 2‐(4‐hydroxy­phenyl)‐2‐oxazoline, (III), all C₉H₉NO₂ [systematic names: 2‐(4,5‐dihydro‐1,3‐oxazol‐2‐yl)phenol, (I), 3‐(4,5‐dihydro‐1,3‐oxazol‐2‐yl)phenol, (II), and 4‐(4,5‐dihydro‐1,3‐oxazol‐2‐yl)phenol, (III)]. In these compounds, the deviation from coplanarity of the oxazoline and benzene rings is dependent on the position of the hydroxy group on the benzene ring. The coplanar arrangement in (I) is stabilized by a strong intra­molecular O—H⋯N hydrogen bond. Surprisingly, the 2‐oxazoline ring in mol­ecule B of (II) adopts a ³T₄ (^C2T_C3) conformation, while the 2‐oxazoline ring in mol­ecule A, as well as that in (I) and (III), is nearly planar, as expected. Tetra­mers of mol­ecules of (II) are formed and they are bound together via weak C—H⋯N hydrogen bonds. In (III), strong inter­molecular O—H⋯N hydrogen bonds and weak intra­molecular C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds lead to the formation of an infinite chain of mol­ecules perpendicular to the b direction. This paper also reports a theoretical investigation of hydrogen bonds, based on density functional theory (DFT) employing periodic boundary conditions.     

fac‐Bromo­tri­carbonyl­[2‐(2‐pyridylmethyl)‐2,3‐di­hydro‐1H‐isoindol‐1‐one]­rhenium(I) methanol solvate

The structure of the title compound, fac‐[ReBr(C₁₄H₁₂N₂O)(CO)₃]·CH₄O, consists of neutral mononuclear mol­ecular units of distorted octahedral geometry, with the three carbonyl donors in a facial orientation. The remaining coordination sites are occupied by the Br atom, the pyridine N atom and the ketone O‐atom donor of the ligand. The mol­ecules pack in stacks of antiparallel tapes, with a network of classical (O—H⋯Br) and non‐classical (C—H⋯O) hydrogen bonds between the methanol solvent mol­ecule and the complex mol­ecule.     

N,N′‐Bis(2‐pyridylmeth­yl)ferrocene‐1,1′‐diyldicarboxamide and N,N′‐bis­(3‐pyridylmeth­yl)ferrocene‐1,1′‐diyldicarboxamide

The mol­ecules of N,N′‐bis­(2‐pyridylmeth­yl)ferrocene‐1,1′‐diyl­dicarboxamide, [Fe(C₁₂H₁₁N₂O)₂], contain intra­molecular N—H⋯N hydrogen bonds and are linked into sheets by three independent C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds. The mol­ecules of the isomeric compound N,N′‐bis­(3‐pyridylmeth­yl)ferrocene‐1,1′‐diyldicarboxamide lie across inversion centres, and the mol­ecules are linked into sheets by a combination of N—H⋯N hydrogen bonds and π–π stacking inter­actions between pyridyl groups.     

trans‐Di­aqua­bis(5‐carboxy‐1H‐imidazole‐4‐carboxyl­ato‐κ2N3,O4)­cobalt(II) 4,4′‐bi­pyridine solvate

In the title compound, [Co(C₅H₃N₂O₄)₂(H₂O)₂]·C₁₀H₈N₂, the Co atom is trans‐coordinated by two pairs of N and O atoms from two monoanionic 4,5‐di­carboxy­imidazole ligands, and by two O atoms from two coordinated water mol­ecules, in a distorted octahedral geometry. The 4,4′‐bi­pyridine solvent molecule is not involved in coordination but is linked by an N—H⋯N hydrogen bond to the neutral [Co(C₅H₃N₂O₄)₂(H₂O)₂] mol­ecule. Both mol­ecules are located on inversion centers. The crystal packing is stabilized by N—H⋯N and O—H⋯O hydrogen bonds, which produce a three‐dimensional hydrogen‐bonded network. Offset π–π stacking interactions between the pyridine rings of adjacent 4,4′‐bi­pyridine molecules were observed, with a face‐to‐face distance of 3.345 (1) Å.     

2‐(4‐Hydroxy­phenyl)‐4,4‐dimethyl‐2‐oxazoline: X‐ray and density functional theory study

In the crystal structure of the title compound, C₁₁H₁₃NO₂, there are strong inter­molecular O—H⋯N hydrogen bonds which, together with weak intra­molecular C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds, lead to the formation of infinite chains of mol­ecules, held together by weak inter­molecular C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds. A theoretical investigation of the hydrogen bonding, based on density functional theory (DFT) employing periodic boundary conditions, is in agreement with the experimental data. The cluster approach shows that the influence of the crystal field and of hydrogen‐bond formation are responsible for the deformation of the 2‐oxazoline ring, which is not planar and adopts a ⁴T₃ (^C3T_C2) conformation.     

Hydrogen bonding in nitroaniline analogues: hydrogen‐bonded sheets in 2‐amino‐4,6‐dimethoxy‐5‐nitropyrimidine and π‐stacked hydrogen‐bonded sheets in 4‐amino‐2,6‐dimethoxy‐5‐nitropyrimidine

In 2‐amino‐4,6‐di­methoxy‐5‐nitro­pyrimidine, C₆H₈N₄O₄, the mol­ecules are linked by one N—H⋯N and one N—H⋯O hydrogen bond to form sheets built from alternating R(8) and R(32) rings. In isomeric 4‐amino‐2,6‐di­methoxy‐5‐nitro­pyrimidine, C₆H₈N₄O₄, which crystallizes with Z′ = 2 in P, the two independent mol­ecules are linked into a dimer by two independent N—H⋯N hydrogen bonds. These dimers are linked into sheets by a combination of two‐centre C—H⋯O and three‐centre C—H⋯(O)₂ hydrogen bonds, and the sheets are further linked by two independent aromatic π–π‐stacking interactions to form a three‐dimensional structure.     

4-(4-Chlorophenyl)-3,7,7-trimethyl-1-[2-(4-nitrobenzoyl)ethyl]-4,7,8,9-tetrahydro-1H-pyrazolo[3,4-b]quinolin-5(6H)-one–ethanol (1/1)

Molecules of the title compound, C₂₈H₂₇ClN₄O₄·C₂H₆O, form a C(6) chain via an N—H⋯O hydrogen bond along the c axis by the operation of a c-glide plane, with N⋯O = 2.761 (3) Å and N—H⋯O = 165°. The mol­ecules are further linked by a weak C—H⋯O interaction, with C⋯O = 3.344 (4) Å and C—H⋯O = 150°. Pendant hydrogen-bonded ethanol solvent mol­ecules are attached to the chains by O—H⋯N hydrogen bonds, with O⋯N = 2.904 (3) Å and O—H⋯N = 175°.     

Aqua­(phthalocyaninato)magnesium n‐propyl­amine disolvate

The crystals of the title compound, [Mg(C₃₂H₁₆N₈)(H₂O)]·2C₃H₉N, are built up from MgPc(H₂O) [Pc is phthalo­cyaninate(2−)] and n‐propyl­amine mol­ecules that inter­act via O—H⋯N hydrogen bonds. The MgPc(H₂O) mol­ecule is non‐planar. The central Mg atom is coordinated by the four equatorial isoindole N atoms of the Pc ring system and by the O atom of an axial water mol­ecule. The Mg atom is displaced by 0.509 (1) Å from the N₄ plane towards the water O atom. MgPc(H₂O)·2(n‐propyl­amine) mol­ecules related by the inversion centre are linked by N—H⋯O hydrogen bonds to form a dimeric aggregate.     

Naphthalene‐1,7‐diol

The asymmetric unit of the title compound, C₁₀H₈O₂, contains two planar symmetry‐independent mol­ecules linked by an O—H⋯O hydrogen bond. In the crystal structure, mol­ecules are linked into infinite chains of rings, formed by a combination of O—H⋯O and C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds, and additionally reinforced by π–π stacking inter­actions. Adjacent chains are connected by weak C—H⋯π inter­actions.
