Hydrogen‐bonded networks in trans‐3‐(3‐pyridyl)acrylic acid and rctt‐3,3′‐(3,4‐dicarboxycyclobutane‐1,2‐diyl)dipyridinium dichloride

The structure of trans‐3‐(3‐pyridyl)acrylic acid, C₈H₇NO₂, (I), possesses a two‐dimensional hydrogen‐bonded array of supramolecular ribbons assembled via heterodimeric synthons between the pyridine and carboxyl groups. This compound is photoreactive in the solid state as a result of close contacts between the double bonds of neighbouring molecules [3.821 (1) Å] along the a axis. The crystal structure of the photoproduct, rctt‐3,3′‐(3,4‐dicarboxycyclobutane‐1,2‐diyl)dipyridinium dichloride, C₁₆H₁₆N₂O₄²⁺·2Cl⁻, (II), consists of a three‐dimensional hydrogen‐bonded network built from crosslinking of helical chains integrated by self‐assembly of dipyridinium cations and Cl⁻ anions via different O—H...Cl, C—H...Cl and N⁺—H...Cl hydrogen‐bond interactions.     

Three‐dimensional networks in bis(imidazolium) 2,2′‐dithiodibenzoate and 4‐methylimidazolium 2‐[(2‐carboxyphenyl)disulfanyl]benzoate

Cocrystallization of imidazole or 4‐methylimidazole with 2,2′‐dithiodibenzoic acid from methanol solution yields the title 2:1 and 1:1 organic salts, 2C₃H₅N₂⁺·C₁₄H₁₀O₄S₂²⁻, (I), and C₄H₇N₂⁺·C₁₄H₁₀O₄S₂⁻, (II), respectively. Compound (I) crystallizes in the monoclinic C2/c space group with the mid‐point of the S—S bond lying on a twofold axis. The component ions in (I) are linked by intermolecular N—H...O hydrogen bonds to form a two‐dimensional network, which is further linked by C—H...O hydrogen bonds into a three‐dimensional network. In contrast, by means of N—H...O, N—H...S and O—H...O hydrogen bonds, the component ions in (II) are linked into a tape and adjacent tapes are further linked by π–π, C—H...O and C—H...π interactions, resulting in a three‐dimensional network.     

3,3′‐Dinitro‐2,2′‐dithiodipyridine

In the title compound, C₁₀H₆N₄O₄S₂, (I), the molecule has a centre of inversion. The structure is a positional isomer of 5,5′‐dinitro‐2,2′‐dithiodipyridine [Brito, Mundaca, Cárdenas, López‐Rodríguez & Vargas (2007). Acta Cryst. E 63 , o3351–o3352], (II). The 3‐nitropyridine fragment of (I) shows excellent agreement with the bonding geometries of (II). The most obvious differences between them are in the S—S bond length [2.1167 (12) Å in (I) and 2.0719 (11) Å in (II)], and in the C—C_ipso—N_ring [119.8 (2)° in (I) and 123.9 (3)° in (II)] and S—C—C [122.62 (18)° in (I) and 116.0 (2)° in (II)] angles. The crystal structure of (I) has an intramolecular C—H...O interaction, with an H...O distance of 2.40 (3) Å, whereas this kind of interaction is not evident in (II). The molecules of (I) are linked into centrosymmetric R⁴₄(30) motifs by a C—H...O interaction. There are no aromatic π–π stacking and no C—H...π(arene) interactions. Compound (I) can be used as a nucleophilic tecton in self‐assembly reactions with metal centres of varying lability.     

Trimethyl[3‐methyl‐1‐(o‐tolenesulfonyl)indol‐2‐ylmethyl]ammonium iodide and benzyl[3‐bromo‐1‐(phenylsulfonyl)indol‐2‐ylmethyl]tolylamine

The title compounds, C₂₀H₂₅N₂O₂S⁺·I^?, (I), and C₂₉H₂₅BrN₂O₂S, (II), respectively, both crystallize in space group P. The pyrrole ring subtends an angle with the sulfonyl group of 33.6° in (I) and 21.5° in (II). The phenyl ring of the sulfonyl substituent makes a dihedral angle with the best plane of the indole moiety of 81.6° in (I) and 67.2° in (II). The lengthening or shortening of the C—N bond distances in both compounds is due to the electron‐withdrawing character of the phenyl­sulfonyl group. The S atoms are in distorted tetrahedral configurations. The molecular structures are stabilized by C—H?O and C—H?I interactions in (I), and by C—H?O and C—H?N interactions in (II).     

Three derivatives of 4‐fluoro‐5‐sulfonylisoquinoline

In 4‐fluoroisoquinoline‐5‐sulfonyl chloride, C₉H₅ClFNO₂S, (I), one of the two sulfonyl O atoms lies approximately on the isoquinoline plane as a result of minimizing the steric repulsion between the chlorosulfonyl group and the neighbouring F atom. In (S)‐(−)‐4‐fluoro‐N‐(1‐hydroxypropan‐2‐yl)isoquinoline‐5‐sulfonamide, C₁₂H₁₃FN₂O₃S, (II), there are two crystallographically independent molecules (Z′ = 2). The molecular conformations of these two molecules differ in that the amine group of one forms an intramolecular bifurcated hydrogen bond with the F and OH groups, whilst the other forms only a single intramolecular N—H...F hydrogen bond. The N—H...F hydrogen bonds correspond to weak coupling between the N(H) and ¹⁹F nuclei, observed in the ¹H NMR solution‐state spectra. In (S)‐(−)‐4‐[(4‐fluoroisoquinolin‐5‐yl)sulfonyl]‐3‐methyl‐1,4‐diazepan‐1‐ium chloride, C₁₅H₁₉FN₃O₂S⁺·Cl⁻, (III), the isoquinoline plane is slightly deformed, suggestive of a steric effect induced by the bulky substituent on the sulfonyl group.     

Racemic dipeptide glycyl‐dl‐leucine at 120 K

The structure of glycyl‐dl ‐leucine, C₈H₁₆N₂O₃, has been determined at 120 K by single‐crystal X‐ray diffraction. In addition to three N—H?O‐type hydrogen bonds of the positively charged RNH₃⁺ group of the zwitterionic mol­ecule, an intermolecular N—H?O contact exists between the peptide bond and the carboxyl­ate group. Four hydrogen‐bond cycles were identified, giving a complex pattern.     

8‐Aza‐7‐deaza‐2′‐de­oxy‐2‐(methyl­sulfan­yl)adenosine

In the title compound, 4‐amino‐1‐(2‐de­oxy‐β‐d ‐erythro‐pentofuranos­yl)‐6‐methyl­sulfanyl‐1H‐pyrazolo[3,4‐d]pyrimidine, C₁₁H₁₆N₅O₃S, the conformation of the glycosidic bond is between anti and high anti. The 2′‐deoxy­ribofuranosyl moiety adopts the C3′‐exo–C4′‐endo conformation (₃T⁴, S‐type sugar pucker), and the conformation at the exocyclic C—C bond is +sc (+gauche). The exocyclic 6‐amine group and the 2‐methyl­sulfanyl group lie on different sides of the heterocyclic ring system. The mol­ecules form a three‐dimensional hydrogen‐bonded network that is stabilized by O—H⋯N, N—H⋯O and C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds.     

3,4‐Di‐2‐pyridyl‐1,2,5‐oxadiazole and its perchlorate salt

In 3,4‐di‐2‐pyridyl‐1,2,5‐oxadiazole (dpo), C₁₂H₈N₄O, each mol­ecule resides on a twofold axis and inter­acts with eight neighbours via four C—H⋯N and four C—H⋯O inter­actions to generate a three‐dimensional hydrogen‐bonded architecture. In the perchlorate analogue, 2‐[3‐(2‐pyrid­yl)‐1,2,5‐oxadiazol‐4‐yl]pyridinium perchlorate, C₁₂H₉N₄O⁺·ClO₄⁻ or [Hdpo]ClO₄, the [Hdpo]⁺ cation is bisected by a crystallographic mirror plane, and the additional H atom in the cation is shared by the two pyridyl N atoms to form a symmetrical intra­molecular N⋯H⋯N hydrogen bond. The cations and perchlorate anions are linked through C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds and π–π stacking inter­actions to form one‐dimensional tubes along the b‐axis direction.     

Polymorphism in 2‐(4‐hydroxy‐2,6‐dimethylanilino)‐5,6‐dihydro‐4H‐1,3‐thiazin‐3‐ium chloride

Details of the structures of two conformational polymorphs of the title compound, C₁₂H₁₇N₂OS⁺·Cl⁻, are reported. In form (I) (space group P), the two N—H groups of the cation are in a trans conformation, while in form (II) (space group P2₁/c), they are in a cis arrangement. This results in different packing and hydrogen‐bond arrangements in the two forms, both of which have extended chains lying along the a direction. In form (I), these chains are composed of centrosymmetric R₄²(18) (N—H...Cl and O—H...Cl) hydrogen‐bonded rings and R₂²(18) (N—H...O) hydrogen‐bonded rings. In form (II), the chains are formed by centrosymmetric R₄²(18) (N—H...Cl and O—H...Cl) hydrogen‐bonded rings and by R₄²(12) (N—H...Cl) hydrogen‐bonded rings.     

catena‐Poly­[[di­aqua­lithium(I)]‐μ‐[9H‐purine‐2,6(1H,3H)‐dionato‐O2:N7]]

In the title compound, [Li(C₅H₃N₄O₂)(H₂O)₂]_n, the coordinate geometry about the Li⁺ ion is distorted tetrahedral and the Li⁺ ion is bonded to N and O atoms of adjacent ligand mol­ecules forming an infinite polymeric chain with Li—O and Li—N bond lengths of 1.901 (5) and 2.043 (6) Å, respectively. Tetrahedral coordination at the Li⁺ ion is completed by two cis water mol­ecules [Li—O 1.985 (6) and 1.946 (6) Å]. The crystal structure is stabilized both by the polymeric structure and by a hydrogen‐bond network involving N—H?O, O—H?O and O—H?N hydrogen bonds.     

trans‐Di­chloro­tetrakis(4‐methylpyrimidine‐N1)­ruthenium(II)

The title compound, trans‐[Ru^IICl₂(N¹‐mepym)₄] (mepym is 4‐methylpyrimidine, C₅H₆N₂), obtained from the reaction of trans,cis,cis‐[Ru^IICl₂(N¹‐mepym)₂(SbPh₃)₂] (Ph is phenyl) with excess mepym in ethanol, has fourfold crystallographic symmetry and has the four pyrimidine bases coordinated through N¹ and arranged in a propeller‐like orientation. The Ru—N and Ru—Cl bond distances are 2.082 (2) and 2.400 (4) Å, respectively. The methyl group, and the N³ and Cl atoms are involved in intermolecular C—H?N and C—­H?Cl hydrogen‐bond interactions.     

Hydrogen‐bonded chains of rings in 1‐(4‐chloroanilinomethyl)‐5‐(4‐chlorophenyl)‐1,3,5‐triazinane‐2‐thione and hydrogen‐bonded sheets in 1‐anilinomethyl‐5‐phenyl‐1,3,5‐triazinane‐2‐thione

In 1‐(4‐chloroanilinomethyl)‐5‐(4‐chlorophenyl)‐1,3,5‐triazinane‐2‐thione, C₁₆H₁₆Cl₂N₄S, there are two independent molecules in the asymmetric unit which form inversion dimers via two weak N—H...S hydrogen bonds. The dimers are then linked into C(9)C(14) chains by a C—H...S hydrogen bond and a C—H...Cl contact. In 1‐(anilinomethyl)‐5‐phenyl‐1,3,5‐triazinane‐2‐thione, C₁₆H₁₈N₄S, molecules are linked into complex sheets via a combination of N—H...S and C—H...π hydrogen bonds.     

N‐(X‐Methylphenyl)‐2‐{(Z)‐[(2,3,4‐trimethoxyphenyl)methylidene]amino}‐4,5,6,7‐tetrahydro‐1‐benzothiophene‐3‐carboxamide,where X = 2 and 3

The title isomers, viz. the N‐(3‐methylphenyl)‐, (I), and N‐(2‐methylphenyl)‐, (II), derivatives, both C₂₆H₂₈N₂O₄S, adopt an E configuration that places the thiophene and trimethoxyphenyl groups on opposite sides of the C=N double bond, providing a suitable orientation for formation of an intramolecular N—H...N hydrogen bond. However, while the molecule in (I) is close to being planar, the N‐methylphenyl group in (II) is twisted significantly from the plane of the remainder of the molecule. Both crystal structures are essentially layered and there are no intermolecular N—H...O hydrogen bonds. Compound (I) has a significantly higher calculated density than (II) (1.340 cf 1.305 Mg m⁻³), indicating that the molecular packing in the meta isomer is overall more efficient than that in the ortho isomer.     

An unusual two‐dimensional hydrogen‐bonding network in bis(2,9‐dimethyl‐1,10‐phenanthrolin‐1‐ium) peroxodisulfate dihydrate

The title compound, 2C₁₄H₁₃N₂⁺·S₂O₈²⁻·2H₂O, is a protonated amine salt which is formed from two rather uncommon ionic species, namely a peroxodisulfate (pds²⁻) anion, which lies across a crystallographic inversion centre, and a 2,9‐dimethyl‐1,10‐phenanthrolin‐1‐ium (Hdmph⁺) cation lying in a general position. Each pds²⁻ anion binds to two water molecules through strong water–peroxo O—H...O interactions, giving rise to an unprecedented planar network of hydrogen‐bonded macrocycles which run parallel to (100). The atoms of the large R₈⁸(30) rings are provided by four water molecules bridging in fully extended form (...H—O—H...) and four pds²⁻ anions alternately acting as long (...O—S—O—O—S—O...) and short (...O—S—O...) bridges. The Hdmph⁺ cations, in turn, bind to these units through hydrogen bonds involving their protonated N atoms. In addition, the crystal structure also contains π–π and aromatic–peroxo C—H...O interactions.     

Two Fe3(μ3‐S)2(CO)8 clusters with terminal N‐heterocyclic carbenes

The title compounds with terminal N‐heterocyclic carbenes, namely octacarbonyl(imidazolidinylidene‐κC²)di‐μ₃‐sulfido‐triiron(II)(2 Fe—Fe), [Fe₃(C₃H₆N₂)(μ₃‐S)₂(CO)₈], (I), and octacarbonyl(1‐methylimidazo[1,5‐a]pyridin‐3‐ylidene‐κC³)di‐μ₃‐sulfido‐triiron(II)(2 Fe—Fe), [Fe₃(C₈H₈N₂)(μ₃‐S)₂(CO)₈], (II), have been synthesized. Each compound contains two Fe—Fe bonds and two S atoms above and below a triiron triangle. One of the eight carbonyl ligands deviates significantly from linearity. In (I), dimers generated by an N—H...S hydrogen bond are linked into [001] double chains by a second N—H...S hydrogen bond. These chains are packed by a C—H...O hydrogen bond to yield [101] sheets. In (II), dimers generated by an N—H...S hydrogen bond are linked by C—H...O hydrogen bonds to form [111] double chains.     

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.     

Constructor graph description of hydrogen bonding in a supramolecular assembly of (3,5‐dimethyl‐1H‐pyrazol‐4‐ylmethyl)isopropylammonium chloride monohydrate

Five distinct strong hydrogen‐bonding interactions of four kinds (N—H...Cl, N—H...O, O—H...N, and O—H...Cl) connect molecules of the title compound, C₉H₁₈N₃⁺·Cl⁻·H₂O, in the crystal structure into corrugated sheets stacked along the a axis. The intermolecular interactions are efficiently described in terms of the first‐ through fifth‐level graph sets. A two‐dimensional constructor graph helps visualize the supramolecular assembly.     

The anilinium chloride adduct of 4‐bromo‐N‐phenylbenzene­sulfonamide

The title compound anilinium chloride–4‐bromo‐N‐phenyl­benzene­sulfonamide (1/1), C₆H₈N⁺·Cl⁻·C₁₂H₁₀BrNO₂S, displays a hydrogen‐bonded ladder motif with four independent N—H⋯Cl bonds in which both the NH group of the sulfonamide molecule and the NH₃ group of the anilinium ion [N⋯Cl = 3.135 (3)–3.196 (2) Å and N—H⋯Cl = 151–167°] are involved. This hydrogen‐bonded chain contains two independent R₄²(8) rings and each chloride ion acts as an acceptor of four hydrogen bonds.     

Hydro­gen‐bonding patterns in 2‐amino‐4,6‐di­methyl­pyrimidinium hydrogen sulfate

In the title compound, C₆H₁₀N₃⁺·HSO₄⁻, the asymmetric unit consists of a hydrogen sulfate anion and a 2‐amino‐4,6‐di­methyl­pyrimidinium cation. The hydrogen sulfate anions self‐assemble through O—H⋯O hydrogen bonds, forming supramolecular chains along the b axis, while the organic cations form base pairs via N—H⋯N hydrogen bonds. The amino­pyrimidinium cations join to the sulfate anions via a pair of hydrogen bonds donated from the pyrimidinium protonation site and from the exo amine group cis to the protonated site.     

A novel photosensitive ternary complex consisting of phenol‐formaldehyde resin,sodium dodecyl sulfate,and diazo resin

A novel photosensitive ternary complex formed from phenol‐formaldehyde resin (PR), sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS), and diazo resin (DR) was developed. In the presence of SDS, PR remains soluble in water when its solution is neutralized. The PR‐SDS‐DR ternary complex forms when DR is added to the PR‐SDS solution. The ternary complex dissolves in polar solvents such as dimethylformamide and is sensitive toward UV light or heating. It was confirmed that the ionic bond of  SO +N₂ between SDS and DR converts to a covalent bond after the decomposition of the ⁺N₂ group under UV irradiation or heating. As a result, the solubility of PR‐SDS‐DR changes dramatically; that is, after treatment with UV light or heating, PR‐SDS‐DR becomes insoluble in polar solvents. © 2000 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
