The asymmetric unit of the title compound, C₂₂H₃₁N₃O₄·H₂O, incorporates one water mol­ecule, which is hydrogen bonded to the 3‐oxo O atom of the indolizidinone system. The two rings of the peptidomimetic mol­ecule are trans‐fused, with the six‐membered ring having a slightly distorted half‐chair conformation and the five‐membered ring having a perfect envelope conformation. The structure is stabilized by intermolecular O—H?O interactions between the water and adjacent peptide mol­ecules, and by N—H?O interactions between the peptide mol­ecules, which link the mol­ecules into infinite chains.     

4‐[N,N‐Bis(2‐hydroxy­imino‐2‐phenyl­ethyl)­amino]‐1,5‐di­methyl‐2‐phenyl‐2,3‐di­hydro‐1H‐pyrazol‐3‐one monohydrate

The title compound, C₂₇H₂₇N₅O₃·H₂O, is built up from pyrazolinone, phenyl and aceto­phenone oxime moieties. The 2‐­phenyl substituent is nearly perpendicular to the pyrazo­linone ring, with a dihedral angle of 87.66 (1)°. The aceto­phenone oxime moieties are twisted out of the pyrazolinone‐ring plane by 47.04 (1)°. The mol­ecules in the crystal pack in an antiparallel fashion and are held together by hydrogen‐bonded water mol­ecules and intermolecular O—H⋯O and O—H⋯N hydrogen bonds.     

N‐(2‐Amino‐1,6‐di­hydro‐5‐nitro­so‐6‐oxopyrimidin‐4‐yl)‐l‐isoleucine–water (4/1): interplay of molecular and supramolecular structures

In the title compound, 2C₁₀H₁₅N₅O₄·0.5H₂O, there are two independent mol­ecules of the pyrimidinyl­isoleucine in general positions and a water mol­ecule lying on a twofold rotation axis. The bond lengths within the organic moieties demonstrate significant polarization of the electronic structure. Each of the organic mol­ecules participates in 12 intermolecular hydrogen bonds, of O—H?O and N—H?O types, while the water mol­ecule acts as a double donor and as a double acceptor of O—H?O hydrogen bonds. The organic components are linked by the hydrogen bonds into a single three‐dimensional framework, reinforced by the water mol­ecules.

The title solvate of the steroid 17β‐estradiol (E₂) with methanol and water, C₁₈H₂₄O₂·0.67CH₄O·0.33H₂O, is the first E₂ derivative to contain three crystallographically independent mol­ecules in the asymmetric unit. The three steroid mol­ecules, along with two methanol mol­ecules and a water mol­ecule, create a three‐dimensional hydrogen‐bonded system. Three‐sided columns are formed, with the estradiol mol­ecules aligned lengthwise parallel to (101), and joined by solvent mol­ecules at both hydro­philic ends. The three estradiol mol­ecules differ slightly in their ring‐bowing angles, i.e. the angle between the mean plane of the A ring and that of the BCD ring; this angle ranges from 7.1 to 12.2°.

The mol­ecule has a trans planar zigzag carbon‐skeletal conformation elongated nearly in the benzene ring plane. The two amino and the carboxyl groups are located on the same side of the mol­ecule. The crystal structure is stabilized by intermolecular hydrogen bonds involving the water mol­ecules and the sulfate ion.

The hydroxyl groups act as donors as well as acceptors, resulting in an extensive two‐dimensional hydrogen‐bonded network in the (011) plane. Intermolecular O—H?O bonds between centrosymmetrically related mol­ecules form a four‐membered supramolecular assembly, leading to infinite chains parallel to the [01] direction, crosslinked in the [100] direction.

The title compound, C₂₁H₂₃ClN₄O₂·0.5H₂O, contains two independent mol­ecules in the asymmetric unit. In each mol­ecule the piperazine ring adopts a chair conformation; the deviations of the piperazine N atoms from the best plane through the remaining four C atoms are ?0.678 (3) and 0.662 (3) Å in mol­ecule A, and 0.687 (3) and ?0.700 (3) Å in mol­ecule B.

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.     

2‐[6‐(1H‐Benzimidazol‐2‐yl)‐2‐pyridyl]‐1H‐benzimidazol‐3‐ium perchlorate monohydrate

The two closest parallel cations (plane‐to‐plane distance of 3.41 Å), together with two neighbouring perchlorate anions and two water mol­ecules, form an electrically neutral quasi‐dimeric unit. Two acidic H atoms of the cation, both H atoms of the water mol­ecule, the N atoms of the imidazole rings and three of the four O atoms of the perchlorate anion are involved in the hydrogen‐bonding network within the dimeric unit. The remaining third acidic H atom of the imidazole rings and the water mol­ecules complete a two‐dimensional network of hydrogen bonds, thus forming puckered layers of dimers. The angle between the planes of two neighbouring dimeric units in the same layer is 33.25 (3)°.

The title monohydrate, C₇H₁₀O₃·H₂O, aggregates as a complex hydrogen‐bonding network, in which the water mol­ecule accepts a hydrogen bond from the carboxyl group of one mol­ecule and donates hydrogen bonds to ketone and carboxyl Czdbnd;O functions in two additional mol­ecules, yielding a sheet‐like structure of parallel ribbons. The keto acid adopts a chiral conformation through rotation of the carboxyl group by 62.50 (15)° relative to the plane defined by its point of attachment and the ketone C and O atoms. Two C—H⋯O close contacts exist in the structure.

The melaminium residues are interconnected by four N—H?N hydrogen bonds, forming chains along the [001] direction. These chains of melaminium residues form stacks aligned along [100]. The di­hydrogenphosphate anions interact with the mono­hydrogenphosphate anions via the H atoms and, together with hydrogen‐bonded dimers of the water mol­ecules, develop layers parallel to the (010) plane. The oppositely charged moieties interact via multiple N—H?O hydrogen bonds that stabilize the stacking structure.
