Diffusion monte carlo study of the hydrogen molecules adsorbed on C4H3Li

Diffusion Monte Carlo (DMC) simulations were used to calculate the binding energies for hydrogen molecules adsorbed on the lithium metal–organic complex C₄H₃Li. The calculations use all‐electron DMC techniques where every electron is explicitly included in the simulation. Also we have systematically studied it using density functional theory (DFT) methods, revealing that each C₄H₃Li can hold up to four H₂ molecules and the adsorption distance is about 2.2 Å. The DMC binding energies are in the range of 0.055–0.143 eV and are compared with those obtained with DFT using various exchange‐correlation functionals, with values ranging from 0.029 to 0.504 eV. These results indicate that caution is required applying DFT methods to weakly bound systems such as hydrogen storage materials based on lithium‐doped metal–organic frameworks. © 2011 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Oxygen versus nitrogen interactions in lithium dinitramidate dihydrate and pyridinium dinitramidate

The title compounds, diaquadinitramidatolithium(I), [Li(N₃O₄)(H₂O)₂], (I), and pyridinium dinitramidate, C₅H₆N⁺·N₃O₄⁻, (II), differ significantly in their cation–anion contacts. The Li⁺ atom of (I) is coordinated by two O atoms of the dinitramide anion in a chelate and by four additional water molecules, with the Li and central N atom of the anion on a twofold rotation axis. The pyridinium cation of (II) exhibits a contact with the dinitramide anion via an intermolecular N—H...N hydrogen bridge. These interactions are compared with those found in reported anhydrous lithium dinitramide and ammonium dinitramide salts.     

Tetraaqua‐1κO,2κ3O‐(μ‐2,4‐dinitrophenolato‐1κ2O1,O2:2κO1)(2,4‐dinitrophenolato‐1κ2O1,O2)dilithium(I): a dinuclear lithium(I) complex

The title complex, [Li₂(C₆H₃N₂O₅)₂(H₂O)₄], contains two kinds of Li atoms, viz. five‐coordinated and four‐coordinated. The five‐coordinated Li ion has a tetragonal–pyramidal geometry, with a water molecule in the apical position and four O atoms from two 2,4‐dinitrophenolate (2,4‐DNP) ligands in the basal plane. The four‐coordinated Li ion has a tetrahedral geometry, with three water molecules and one phenolate O atom of a 2,4‐DNP ligand. The Li ions are bridged by a phenolate O atom, giving the complex a dinuclear structure. The crystal packing is stabilized by O—H...O hydrogen‐bonding interactions involving the water molecules and nitro O atoms.     

Two two‐dimensional hydrogen‐bonded coordination networks: bis(3‐carboxybenzoato‐κO)bis(4‐methyl‐1H‐imidazole‐κN3)copper(II) and bis(3‐methylbenzoato‐κN)bis(4‐methyl‐1H‐imidazole‐κN3)copper(II) monohydrate

The title two‐dimensional hydrogen‐bonded coordination compounds, [Cu(C₈H₅O₄)₂(C₄H₆N₂)₂], (I), and [Cu(C₈H₇O₂)₂(C₄H₆N₂)₂]·H₂O, (II), have been synthesized and structurally characterized. The molecule of complex (I) lies across an inversion centre, and the Cu²⁺ ion is coordinated by two N atoms from two 4‐methyl‐1H‐imidazole (4‐MeIM) molecules and two O atoms from two 3‐carboxybenzoate (HBDC⁻) anions in a square‐planar geometry. Adjacent molecules are linked through intermolecular N—H...O and O—H...O hydrogen bonds into a two‐dimensional sheet with (4,4) topology. In the asymmetric part of the unit cell of (II) there are two symmetry‐independent molecules, in which each Cu²⁺ ion is also coordinated by two N atoms from two 4‐MeIM molecules and two O atoms from two 3‐methylbenzoate (3‐MeBC⁻) anions in a square‐planar coordination. Two neutral complex molecules are held together via N—H...O(carboxylate) hydrogen bonds to generate a dimeric pair, which is further linked via discrete water molecules into a two‐dimensional network with the Schläfli symbol (4³)₂(4⁶,6⁶,8³). In both compounds, as well as the strong intermolecular hydrogen bonds, π–π interactions also stabilize the crystal stacking.     

Amide hydrogen bonding: control of the molecular and extended structures of two symmetrical pyridine‐2‐carboxamide derivatives

The crystal structures of two symmetrical pyridine‐2‐carboxamides, namely N,N′‐(propane‐1,3‐diyl)bis(pyridine‐2‐carboxamide), C₁₅H₁₆N₄O₂, (I), and N,N′‐(butane‐1,4‐diyl)bis(pyridine‐2‐carboxamide), C₁₆H₁₈N₄O₂, (II), exhibit extended hydrogen‐bonded sequences involving their amide groups. In (I), conventional bifurcated amide–carbonyl (N—H)...O hydrogen bonding favours the formation of one‐dimensional chains, the axes of which run parallel to [001]. Unconventional bifurcated pyridine–carbonyl C—H...O hydrogen bonding links adjacent one‐dimensional chains to form a `porous' three‐dimensional lattice with interconnected, yet unfilled, voids of 60.6 (2) ų which combine into channels that run parallel to, and include, [001]. 4% of the unit‐cell volume of (I) is vacant. Compound (II) adopts a Z‐shaped conformation with inversion symmetry, and exhibits an extended structure comprising one‐dimensional hydrogen‐bonded chains along [100] in which individual molecules are linked by complementary pairs of amide N—H...O hydrogen bonds. These hydrogen‐bonded chains interlock viaπ–π interactions between pyridine rings of neighbouring molecules to form sheets parallel with (010); each sheet is one Z‐shaped molecule thick and separated from the next sheet by the b‐axis dimension [7.2734 (4) Å].     

Synthesis,Spectroscopy, X‐ray Crystallography,and DFT Computations of Nanosized Phosphazenes

Nanoparticles of nine phosphazenes with general formula 4‐CH₃C₆H₄S(O)₂N=PX₃ [X = Cl ( A ), NC₄H₈ ( 1 ), NC₆H₁₂ ( 2 ), NC₄H₈N–C(O)OC₂H₅ ( 3 ), NC₄H₈N–C(O)OC₆H₅ ( 4 ), NC₄H₈O ( 5 ), NHCH₂–C₄H₇O ( 6 ), N(CH₃)(C₆H₁₁) ( 7 ), NHCH₂–C₆H₅ ( 8 ), and 2‐NH‐NC₅H₄ ( 9 )] were synthesized using ultrasonic method and characterized by ¹H, ¹³C, ³¹P NMR, FT‐IR, fluorescence, as well as UV/Vis spectroscopy and additionally with XRD, FE‐SEM, N₂ sorption, and elemental analysis. The ³¹P NMR spectra of compounds 1 – 9 reveal the most up field shift δ(³¹P) for 9 at –11.45 ppm reflecting the most electron donation of 2‐aminopyridinyl rings through resonance to the phosphorus atom. The ¹H, ¹³C NMR spectra of 7 exhibit two sets of signals for the hydrogen and carbon atoms of its two isomers present in the solution state in 1:4 ratio. The FE‐SEM micrographs illustrate that the nanoparticles of compounds 1 – 9 have spherical morphology and a size of 27–42 nm. From the XRD patterns, the crystal sizes were estimated to about 24–86 nm. The highest bandgap was measured for 3 (3.81 eV) whereas the smallest was measured for 8 (3.50 eV). The structures of two polymorphs of compound 5 ( 5 , 5′ ) were determined by X‐ray crystallography at 120 K. Both of these polymorphs are triclinic with P1 space group but 5 has a doubled unit cell volume and two symmetrically independent molecules ( 5a and 5b ). In structures 5a and 5′ , the phosphorus and all endocyclic atoms of two morpholinyl rings display disorder, whereas the molecule 5b does not show disorder. The strong intermolecular O–H ··· O hydrogen bonds plus weak intermolecular C–H ··· O and C–H ··· N interactions create three‐dimensional polymers in the crystalline networks of 5 and 5′ . The DFT computations illustrate that molecule 5b is more stable than 5a by –1.1062 and –0.9779 kcal · mol^–1 at B3LYP and B3PW91 levels, respectively. The NBO calculations presented sp³d hybridization for phosphorus and sulfur atoms and sp², sp³ hybrids for the nitrogen and oxygen atoms.     

Crystal structure of pharmaceutical cocrystals of 2,6‐diaminopyridine with piracetam and theophylline

Pharmaceutical cocrystals are crystalline solids formed by an active pharmaceutical ingredient and a cocrystal former. The cocrystals 2,6‐diaminopyridine (DAP)–piracetam [PIR; systematic name: 2‐(2‐oxopyrrolidin‐1‐yl)acetamide] (1/1), C₅H₇N₃·C₆H₁₀N₂O₂, (I), and 2,6‐diaminopyridine–theophylline (TEO; systematic name: 1,3‐dimethyl‐7H‐purine‐2,6‐dione) (1/1), C₅H₇N₃·C₇H₈N₄O₂, (II), were prepared by the solvent‐assisted grinding method and were characterized by IR spectroscopy and powder X‐ray diffraction. Cocrystal (I) crystallized in the orthorhombic space group Pbca and showed a 1:1 stoichiometry. The DAP and PIR molecules are linked by an N—H…O hydrogen‐bond interaction. Self‐assembly of PIR molecules forms a sheet of C (4) and C (7) chains. Cocrystal (II) crystallized in the monoclinic P 2₁/c space group and also showed a 1:1 stoichiometry. The DAP and TEO molecules are connected by N—H…N and N—H…O hydrogen bonds, forming an R ₂²(9) heterosynthon. A bidimensional supramolecular array is formed by interlinked DAP–TEO tetramers, producing a two‐dimensional sheet.     

Lithium aspirinate hemihydrate

The title compound {systematic name: catena‐poly[lithium(I)‐μ₃‐acetylsalicylato‐hemi‐μ₂‐aqua]}, {[Li(C₉H₇O₄)]·0.5H₂O}_n, is the hemihydrate of the lithium salt of aspirin. The carboxylate groups and water molecules bridge between Li atoms to form a one‐dimensional coordination chain composed of two distinct ring types. The water O atom lies on a twofold axis. Hydrogen bonding between water donors and carbonyl acceptors further links the coordination chains to form a sheet structure.     

L‐Leucylglycine 0.67‐hydrate and [(4S)‐2,2‐dimethyl‐4‐(2‐methylpropyl)‐5‐oxoimidazolidin‐3‐ium‐1‐yl]acetate

Crystals of L‐leucylglycine (L‐Leu–Gly) 0.67‐hydrate, C₈H₁₆N₂O₃·0.67H₂O, (I), were obtained from an aqueous solution. There are three symmetrically independent dipeptide zwitterionic molecules in (I) and they are parallel to one another. The hydrogen‐bond network composed of carboxylate and amino groups and water molecules extends parallel to the ab plane. Hydrophilic regions composed of main chains and hydrophobic regions composed of the isobutyl groups of the leucyl residues are aligned alternately along the c axis. An imidazolidinone derivative was obtained from L‐Leu–Gly and acetone, viz. [(4S)‐2,2‐dimethyl‐4‐(2‐methylpropyl)‐5‐oxoimidazolidin‐3‐ium‐1‐yl]acetate, C₁₁H₂₀N₂O₃, (II), and was crystallized from a methanol–acetone solution of L‐Leu–Gly. The unit‐cell parameters coincide with those reported previously for L‐Leu–Gly dihydrate revealing that the previously reported values should be assigned to the structure of (II). One of the imidazolidine N atoms is protonated and the ring is nearly planar, except for the protonated N atom. Protonated N atoms and deprotonated carboxy groups of neighbouring molecules form hydrogen‐bonded chains. The ring carbonyl group is not involved in hydrogen bonding.     

Theoretical Study of the Interplay between Lithium Bond and Hydrogen Bond in Complexes Involved with HLi and HCN

The lithium‐ and hydrogen‐bonded complex of HLi? NCH? NCH is studied with ab initio calculations. The optimized structure, vibrational frequencies, and binding energy are calculated at the MP2 level with 6‐311++G(2d,2p) basis set. The interplay between lithium bonding and hydrogen bonding in the complex is investigated with these properties. The effect of lithium bonding on the properties of hydrogen bonding is larger than that of hydrogen bonding on the properties of lithium bonding. In the trimer, the binding energies are increased by about 19 % and 61 % for the lithium and hydrogen bonds, respectively. A big cooperative energy (?5.50 kcal mol^?1) is observed in the complex. Both the charge transfer and induction effect due to the electrostatic interaction are responsible for the cooperativity in the trimer. The effect of HCN chain length on the lithium bonding has been considered. The natural bond orbital and atoms in molecules analyses indicate that the electrostatic force plays a main role in the lithium bonding. A many‐body interaction analysis has also been performed for HLi? (NCH)_N (N=2–5) systems.     

Trinitratobis{N′‐[1‐(2‐pyridyl)ethylidene]isonicotinohydrazide}cerium(III): a three‐dimensional cerium–organic supramolecular structure

The Ce^III ion in the title complex, [Ce(NO₃)₃(C₁₃H₁₂N₄O)₂], is 12‐coordinated by six chelating nitrate O atoms and six donors (2 O and 4 N atoms) of two N′‐[1‐(2‐pyridyl)ethylidene]isonicotinohydrazide ligands, exhibiting a bicapped pentagonal‐antiprism‐type coordination geometry. The title complex possesses C₂ point symmetry and is located on a twofold crystallographic axis. Each molecule is linked with four surrounding molecules by four N—H...N hydrogen bonds, resulting in an extended two‐dimensional layer parallel to the ab plane, while π–π interactions between pyridine rings from neighboring complex molecules connect the two‐dimensional layers into a three‐dimensional cerium–organic supramolecular structure.     

Interplay of Electronic Structure and Bulk Properties in 2D and 3D Ternary Carbonitrides from First Principles

The changes in electronic structure and hardness as inferred from the bulk modulus are investigated for model structures of ternary compounds XC₃N₃ (X = B, Al, P, As, Ga) within the framework of density functional theory (DFT). The optimisations of the proposed two‐ (2D) and three‐dimensional (3D) structures and the calculations of the bulk moduli are performed by a pseudo potential method. The electronic structures are calculated with the augmented sphere wave method (ASW). The obtained hardness for 2D BC₃N₃ system (B₀ ～ 220 GPa) points to a magnitude close to that of graphitic C₃N₄. For heavier X atoms it decreases rapidly. This is equally observed for the 3D systems examined in the β‐C₃N₄ structure for which B₀(β‐BC₃N₃) amounts to ～330 GPa. Within the magnitude of the well known hard material cubic BN, the BC₃N₃ phases can be predicted as candidates for ultra hard materials. The electronic effect induced by the chemical nature of the X substitutional was examined according to its position in the periodic table i.e. X_III or X_V. Both, band structures and the electron localisation function (ELF) were used for this analysis. The ELF plots show a decreasing covalency with heavier X‐atoms. Potential applications of the devised systems are proposed such as dopings with atoms (Li, rare gas) and molecules (N₂).     

(6‐Oxido‐2‐oxo‐1,2‐dihydropyrimidine‐5‐carboxylato‐κ2O5,O6)bis[2‐(2‐pyridyl)‐1H‐benzimidazole‐κ2N2,N3]manganese(II) monohydrate

In the title compound, [Mn(C₅H₂N₂O₄)(C₁₂H₉N₃)₂]·H₂O, the Mn^II centre is surrounded by three bidentate chelating ligands, namely, one 6‐oxido‐2‐oxo‐1,2‐dihydropyrimidine‐5‐carboxylate (or uracil‐5‐carboxylate, Huca²⁻) ligand [Mn—O = 2.136 (2) and 2.156 (3) Å] and two 2‐(2‐pyridyl)‐1H‐benzimidazole (Hpybim) ligands [Mn—N = 2.213 (3)–2.331 (3) Å], and it displays a severely distorted octahedral geometry, with cis angles ranging from 73.05 (10) to 105.77 (10)°. Intermolecular N—H...O hydrogen bonds both between the Hpybim and the Huca²⁻ ligands and between the Huca²⁻ ligands link the molecules into infinite chains. The lattice water molecule acts as a hydrogen‐bond donor to form double O...H—O—H...O hydrogen bonds with the Huca²⁻ O atoms, crosslinking the chains to afford an infinite two‐dimensional sheet; a third hydrogen bond (N—H...O) formed by the water molecule as a hydrogen‐bond acceptor and a Hpybim N atom further links these sheets to yield a three‐dimensional supramolecular framework. Possible partial π–π stacking interactions involving the Hpybim rings are also observed in the crystal structure.     

Neue Alkalimetall‐Koordinationen durch chelatisierende Siloxazaneinheiten in Verbindungen der Formel [X–N–SiMe2–O–SiMe2–N–X]2M4

New Alkali Metal Coordinations by Chelating Siloxazane Units within Molecules of the General Formula [X–N–SiMe₂–O–SiMe₂–N–X]₂M₄ New solvent free alkali metal amides with Si–O–Si bridges of the general formula [X–N–SiMe₂–O–SiMe₂–N–X]₂M₄ (X = ^tBu ( 1 ), SiMe₃ ( 2 ), SiMe₂^tBu ( 3 ) with M = Li; X = ^tBu ( 4 ), SiMe₃ ( 5 ) with M = Na; X = ^tBu mit M = K, Li ( 6 )) have been synthesised and characterised by spectroscopic means. X‐ray structure analyses of the six metal derivatives reveal a common structural principle: the four metal atoms within the molecules are incorporated between two molecular halfs and form the bonding links between the two parts. The central molecular skeleton of the molecular halfs consists of a zig‐zag chain N–Si–O–Si–N. This chain is connected to the second one either ideally or approximately by S₄ (4) symmetry. The point symmetries within the crystal are either S₄ (4) (compounds 2 and 4 ), C₂ (2) (compound 6 ), and C₁ (1) (compounds 3 and 5 ). Compound 1 is special in different aspects: the molecule has the high crystallographic point symmetry D_2d (4m2) and the lithium atoms occupy split atom positions (in a similar way as in compound 2 ). The high symmetry of 1 as well as the split atom positions of the lithium atoms are a consequence of dynamics within the crystal.     

A lithium ethyl­ene­diphos­phon­ate containing lithium chains and symmetric hydrogen bonds

In the title compound, catena‐poly[lithium‐μ₃‐ethyl­ene­diphos­phon­ato], [Li(C₂H₇O₆P₂)]_n, the supra­molecular monoclinic (C2/c) structure consists of one‐dimensional lithium chains [Li⋯Li = 2.7036 (8) Å] that are embedded within ethyl­ene­diphosphon­ate anions linked by strong symmetric hydrogen bonds [O⋯O = 2.473 (3) Å]. The Li atoms and the H atom in the symmetric hydrogen bond reside on twofold rotation axes and there is an inversion center at the mid‐point of the C—C bond of the ethylenediphosphonate ligand.     

A solid‐state oxidation of 1,1,3,3‐tetramethylguanidinium 4‐methylbenzenesulfinate to 1,1,3,3‐tetramethylguanidinium 4‐methylbenzenesulfonate

The organic acid–base complex 1,1,3,3‐tetramethylguanidinium 4‐methylbenzenesulfonate, C₅H₁₄N₃⁺·C₇H₇O₃S⁻, was obtained from the corresponding 1,1,3,3‐tetramethylguanidinium 4‐methylbenzenesulfinate complex, C₅H₁₄N₃⁺·C₇H₇O₂S⁻, by solid‐state oxidation in air. Comparison of the two crystal structures reveals similar packing arrangements in the monoclinic space group P2₁/c, with centrosymmetric 2:2 tetramers being connected by four strong N—H...O=S hydrogen bonds between the imine N atoms of two 1,1,3,3‐tetramethylguanidinium bases and the O atoms of two acid molecules.     

(4‐Aminopyridine‐κN1)(phthalocyaninato‐κ4N)zinc(II) tetrahydrofuran disolvate

The title compound, [Zn(C₃₂H₁₆N₈)(C₅H₆N₂)]·2C₄H₈O, consists of one (phthalocyaninato)zinc (ZnPc) unit, a coordinated 4‐aminopyridine (4‐ap) molecule and two tetrahydrofuran (THF) solvent molecules. The central Zn atom is (4+1)‐coordinated by four isoindole N atoms of the Pc core and by the pyridine N atom of 4‐aminopyridine. The Zn atom is displaced by 0.4464 (8) Å from the isoindole N₄ plane towards the pyridine N atom. The crystal structure is stabilized by intermolecular amine–phthalocyaninate N—H...N hydrogen bonds and π–π interactions between the aggregated Pc rings, which form molecular layers, and by weak van der Waals interactions between the layers. As well as hindering the aggregation of ZnPc molecules by occupying an axial position, the amino group will add new interactions which will favor applications of ZnPc, for example, as a sensitizer of photodynamic therapy.     

Gold(I) and Silver(I) Complexes with Thioether Functionalized Silylamido Ligands

The thioether functionalized aminosilanes Me₂Si(NH‐C₆H₄‐2‐SR)₂ (R = Ph, Me) were lithiated with nBuLi and subsequently reacted with AgCl in the presence of PMe₃ or with [AuCl(PMe₃)]. In the case of Me₂Si(NH‐C₆H₄‐2‐SPh)₂ the dinuclear complexes [M₂{Me₂Si(NC₆H₄‐2‐SPh)₂}(PMe₃)₂] (M = Ag; Au) were isolated. The analogous reactions starting from Me₂Si(NH‐C₆H₄‐SMe)₂ afforded the dinuclear gold complex [Au₂{Me₂Si(NC₆H₄‐2‐SMe)₂}(PMe₃)₂] and the tetranuclear silver complex [Ag₄{Me₂Si(NC₆H₄‐2‐SMe)₂}₂(PMe₃)₂]. In the dinuclear compounds of the type [M₂{Me₂Si(NC₆H₄‐2‐SR)₂}(PMe₃)₂], each of the silylamide N atoms is connected to a M(PMe₃) group to give a nearly linear N–M–P arrangement with Ag–N and Au–N bonds in the range of 212.0(4)–213.3(4) pm and 205.3(3)–208.1(9) pm, respectively. [Ag₄{Me₂Si(NC₆H₄‐2‐SMe)₂}₂(PMe₃)₂] consists of a central Si₂N₄Ag₂ ring with linearly coordinated Ag atoms (Ag‐N: 223.1(4)–222.1(4) pm) and two peripheral Ag(PMe₃) units, which are connected to the amido N atoms in a chelating mode. The relatively short transannular Ag ··· Ag separation (277.6(1) pm) within the Si₂N₄Ag₂ ring hints for argentophilic interactions. The peripheral Ag atoms are three coordinated with Ag–N distances of 233.9(4)–242.8(4) pm.     

3,3′,5,5′‐Tetramethyl‐4,4′‐bipyrazole–pentafluorophenol (2/3)

In the title compound, 2C₁₀H₁₄N₄·3C₆HF₅O, one of the pentafluorophenol molecules resides on a mirror plane bisecting the O...F axis. The components aggregate by N—H...N, N—H...O and O—H...N hydrogen bonds involving equal disordering of the H atoms into molecular ensembles based on a 2:1 pyrazole–phenol cyclic pattern [O...N = 2.7768 (16) Å and N...N = 2.859 (2) Å], crosslinked into one‐dimensional columns via hydrogen bonding between the outer pyrazole groups and additional pentafluorophenol molecules. The latter yields a 1:1 pyrazole–phenol catemer with alternating strong O—H...N [2.5975 (16) Å] and weaker N—H...O [2.8719 (17) Å] hydrogen bonds. This is the first reported molecular adduct of a pentafluorinated phenol and a nitrogen base, and suggests the utility of highly acidic phenols and pyrazoles for developing hydrogen‐bonded cocrystals.     

Aqua(dipicolinato‐κ3O,N,O′)(1H‐imidazole‐κN3)(1,10‐phenanthroline‐N,N′)manganese(II)

In the title compound, [Mn(C₇H₃NO₄)(C₃H₄N₂)(C₁₂H₈N₂)(H₂O)], the Mn^II centre is surrounded by one bidentate phenanthroline ligand [Mn—N = 2.383 (3) and 2.421 (3) Å], one tridentate dipicolinate ligand [Mn—N = 2.300 (3) Å, and Mn—O = 2.300 (2) and 2.357 (2) Å], one monodentate imidazole ligand [Mn—N = 2.238 (3) Å] and one water molecule [Mn—O = 2.157 (3) Å]. It displays a distorted pentagonal‐bipyramidal geometry, with neighbouring angles within the equatorial plane ranging from 68.05 (9) to 77.48 (10)°. Intermolecular O—H...O hydrogen bonds link the molecules into infinite chains. The chains are crosslinked by hydrogen bonds involving the carboxyl O atoms of the dipicolinate ligand and the protonated imidazole N atom, leading to an infinite two‐dimensional network sheet packing mode. The complete solid‐state structure can be described as a three‐dimensional supramolecular framework, stabilized by these intermolecular hydrogen‐bonding interactions and π–π stacking interactions involving the phenanthroline rings.
