3,6‐Bis(dimethylamino)‐10‐(10‐iododecyl)acridinium iodide

In the title compound, C₂₇H₃₉IN₃⁺·I^?, the acridinium system shows the usual approximate mirror symmetry about the central C?N line, and the corresponding bond lengths and angles in the two halves agree within experimental error. The alkyl chain at the ring N atom is initially perpendicular to the ring plane and then bends sharply at the fourth C atom. Pairs of centrosymmetrically related cations overlap two of their rings and the di­methyl­amino groups are also partly involved in the overlap. Each I^? ion is involved in short‐range interactions with two cations. These interactions give rise to a 14‐membered cyclic structure, which involves pairs of cations and anions across an inversion centre.     

Ranitidine hydro­chloride,a polymorphic crystal form

In the title compound, di­methyl­({5‐[2‐(1‐methyl­amino‐2‐nitro­eth­enyl­amino)­ethyl­thio­methyl]‐2‐furyl}­methyl)­ammon­ium chloride, C₁₃H₂₃N₄O₃S⁺·­Cl^?, protonation occurs at the di­methyl­amino N atom. The ranitidine mol­ecule adopts an eclipsed conformation. Bond lengths indicate extensive electron delocalization in the N,N′‐di­methyl‐2‐nitro‐1,1‐ethenedi­amine system of the mol­ecule. The nitro and methyl­amino groups are trans across the side chain C=C double bond, while the ethyl­amino and nitro groups are cis. The Cl^? ions link mol­ecules through hydrogen bonds.     

Bis­[4‐(di­methyl­amino)­pyridinium] hexa­chloro­stannate(IV)

In the title compound, 4‐(di­methyl­amino)­pyridine is proton­ated on the pyridine N atom. The N(CH₃)₂ moiety is twisted 4.4 (2)° from the pyridine‐ring plane. The octahedral [SnCl₆]^2? anion is hydrogen bonded via trans‐Cl atoms to pyridinium N atoms from two cations forming (C₇H₁₁N₂)₂[SnCl₆] structural units.     

A new amidrazone derivative with anti­mycobacterial activity

Of a series of pyridine‐2‐carboxamidrazone derivatives with activity against mycobacteria, the N¹‐[4‐(1,1‐di­methyl­propyl)­benzyl­idene] derivative reported here, C₁₈H₂₂N₄, is one of the most active. The predicted E isomer about the C11=N12 double bond is confirmed and intramolecular hydrogen bonding involving both amino H atoms helps to keep the mol­ecule flat. The same donor and acceptor atoms also form intermolecular hydrogen bonds.     

Di­propyl 3,6‐di­phenyl‐1,2‐di­hydro‐1,2,4,5‐tetrazine‐1,2‐di­carboxyl­ate

The title compound, C₂₂H₂₄N₄O₄, was prepared from propyl chloro­formate and 3,6‐di­phenyl‐1,2‐di­hydro‐s‐tetrazine. This reaction yields the title compound rather than di­propyl 3,6‐di­phenyl‐1,4‐di­hydro‐s‐tetrazine‐1,4‐di­carboxyl­ate. The 2,3‐di­aza­buta­diene group in the central six‐membered ring is not planar; the C=N double‐bond length is 1.285 (2) Å, and the average N—N single‐bond length is 1.401 (3) Å, indicating a lack of conjugation. The ring has a twist conformation, in which adjacent N atoms lie 0.3268 (17) Å from the plane of the ring. The mol­ecule has twofold crystallographic symmetry.     

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.     

Bis­[N,N′‐bis­(di­phenyl­methyl­ene)ethyl­enedi­amine‐κ2N,N′]copper(I) di­chloro­cuprate(I)

The 1:1 adduct of N,N′‐bis­(di­phenyl­methyl­ene)­ethyl­enedi­amine (bz₂en) with copper(I) chloride, viz. [Cu(C₂₈H₂₄N₂)₂][CuCl₂], has been synthesized. The structure contains cationic moieties of Cu^I ions (Cu on a twofold axis) coordinated to four N atoms of two bz₂en mol­ecules (in a distorted tetrahedron) and linear di­chloro­cuprate(I) anions (with Cu on an inversion centre). These cations and anions are packed in columns along b. The packing of the cation and anion columns involves a significant C—H⋯Cl interaction and four short intermolecular C—H⋯π contacts, two of which are between cation columns.     

9‐Cyano‐10‐methylacridinium hydrogen dinitrate

The title compound, C₁₅H₁₁N₂⁺·HN₂O₆^?, crystallizes in the monoclinic space group C2/c with four mol­ecules in the unit cell. The planar 9‐cyano‐10‐methyl­acridinium cations lie on crystallographic twofold axes and are arranged in layers, almost perpendicular to the ac plane, in such a way that neighbouring mol­ecules are positioned in a `head‐to‐tail' manner. These cations and the hydrogen dinitrate anions are linked through C—H?O interactions involving four of the six O atoms of the anion and the H atoms attached to the C atoms of the acridine moiety in ring positions 2 and 4. The H atom of the hydrogen dinitrate anion appears to be located on the centre of inversion relating two of the four O atoms engaged in the above‐mentioned C—H?O interactions. In this way, columns of either anions or cations running along the c axis are held in place by the network of C—H?O interactions, forming a relatively compact crystal lattice.     

Potassium 3‐cyano‐4‐(dicyanomethylene)‐5‐oxo‐4,5‐dihydro‐1H‐pyrrol‐2‐olate

The crystal structure of the title potassium salt, K⁺·C₈HN₄O₂⁻, of the organic anion 3‐cyano‐4‐(di­cyano­methyl­ene)‐5‐oxo‐4,5‐di­hydro‐1H‐pyrrol‐2‐olate shows that the di­cyano­methyl­ene moiety is able to accept an electron in the same way as does tetra­cyano­ethyl­ene, to yield the novel product. The organic anion is nearly planar, with deviations caused by steric crowding among the exocyclic cyano groups. The K⁺ cations lie within tricapped trigonal prisms that stack to form channels. The three‐dimensional structure is completed by the formation of hydrogen‐bonded chains by the anions.     

10‐Methyl‐ and 9,10‐dimethyl­acridinium methyl sulfate

The title compounds, C₁₄H₁₂N⁺·CH₃O₄S^?, (I), and C₁₅H₁₄N⁺·CH₃O₄S^?, (II), respectively, crystallize with the planar 10‐methylacridinium or 9,10‐di­methyl­acridinium cations arranged in layers, parallel to the twofold axis in (I) and perpendicular to the 2₁ axis in (II). Adjacent cations in both compounds are packed in a `head‐to‐tail' manner. The methyl sulfate anion only exhibits planar symmetry in (II). The cations and anions are linked through C—H?O interactions involving three O atoms of the anion, six acridine H atoms and the CH₃ group on the N atom in (I), and the four O atoms of the anion, three acridine H atoms and the carbon‐bound CH₃ group in (II). The methyl sulfate anions are oriented differently in the two compounds relative to the cations, being nearly perpendicular in (I) but parallel in (II). Electrostatic interaction between the ions and the network of C—H?O interactions leads to relatively compact crystal lattices in both structures.     

Di‐μ‐iodo‐bis{[1,1′‐methyl­enebis(3,5‐dimethyl‐1H‐pyrazole‐κN2)]copper(I)}

In the title compound, [Cu₂I₂(C₁₁H₁₆N₄)₂], each of the two crystallographically equivalent Cu atoms is tetrahedrally coordinated by two N atoms from one 1,1′‐methyl­ene­bis(3,5‐di­methyl‐1H‐pyrazole) ligand and two bridging iodide anions. The mol­ecule has a crystallographic center of symmetry located at the mid‐point of the Cu·Cu line. One H atom of the CH₂ group of the 1,1′‐methyl­ene­bis(3,5‐di­methyl‐1H‐pyrazole) ligand interacts with an iodide ion in an adjacent mol­ecule to afford pairwise intermolecular C—H·I contacts, thereby forming chains of mol­ecules running along the [101] direction.     

Poly­[methyl­ammonium tris(μ2‐form­ato‐κ2O:O′)­cobalt(II)]

The structure of the title compound, {(CH₆N)[Co(CHO₂)₃]}_n, consists of a three‐dimensional net of central Co^II ions connected via formate (methane­diolate) bridges. The negative charge is compensated by protonated methyl­amine cations. The CoO₆ chromophores form slightly distorted octahedra, which are bridged by C atoms of formate groups. The central Co atom lies on an inversion center and most of the other atoms lie on an m plane.     

Di­chloro­bis(3,5‐di­methyl­pyrazole‐N2)methyl­phenyl­tin(IV)

The title compound, [SnCl₂(CH₃)(C₆H₅)(C₅H₈N₂)₂], was obtained by reaction of di­chloro­methyl­phenyl­tin(IV) and 3,5‐di­methyl­pyrazole (dmpz) in chloro­form, and was recrystallized from acetone. The structure consists of octahedral all‐trans [SnMePhCl₂(dmpz)₂] mol­ecules, with the Sn atom coordinated to two C [Sn—C 2.127 (5) and 2.135 (4) Å], two Cl [Sn—Cl 2.5753 (8) Å] and two N atoms [Sn—N 2.357 (3) Å]. The dmpz ligands, bound to the metal through their unprotonated N atoms, form weak intra‐ and intermolecular hydrogen bonds with the Cl ligands via their NH groups, giving rise to a polymeric chain along the c axis.     

1,6‐Interactions between di­methyl­amino and aldehyde groups in two bi­phenyl derivatives

The title compounds, 2‐(di­methyl­amino)­bi­phenyl‐2′‐carbox­aldehyde, C₁₅H₁₅NO, and 2‐(di­methyl­amino)­bi­phenyl‐2′,6′‐dicarbox­aldehyde, C₁₆H₁₅­NO₂, show similar 1,6‐interactions [N?C=O 2.929 (3) to 3.029 (3) Å] between the di­methyl­amino and aldehyde groups located in the ortho positions of the two rings, which lie at 58.1 (1)–62.4 (1)° to each other.     

1,4‐Di­methyl­pyridinium hexakis­(di­methyl­form­amide‐κO)­calcium(II) dodecamolybdophosphate

In the title compound, (C₇H₁₀N)[Ca(C₃H₇NO)₆][PMo₁₂O₄₀], two types of cations {viz. 1,4‐di­methyl­pyridinium and a [Ca(DMF)₆]²⁺ complex cation (DMF is di­methyl­form­amide)} and dodecamolybdophosphate (tetra­conta­oxo­phos­phido­dodeca­molybdate) anions form an infinite three‐dimensional assembly via electrostatic forces.     

2,2‐Di­methyl‐1‐(2,4,6‐tri­nitro­phenyl)­hydrazine

The title mol­ecule (DMPH‐H), C₈H₉N₅O₆, was investigated to provide comparison with 2,2‐di­phenyl‐1‐picryl­hydrazine, which unlike DMPH‐H is readily oxidizable to form a well known stable free radical (DPPH). The structure shows essential differences in the configuration of the hydrazine‐N atoms, the ortho‐nitro group orientations and the crystal packing. The bond angles of the di­methyl­amino N atom [107.90 (13), 108.96 (12) and 112.21 (13)°] are consistent with a tetrahedral N atom and sp³ hybridization.     

Bis­[1‐(p‐chloro­phenyl)‐5‐iso­propyl­biguanide‐κ2N2,N4]­nickel(II) dichloride di­methyl­form­amide solvate

The asymmetric unit of the title compound, [Ni(C₁₁H₁₆ClN₅)₂]Cl₂·C₃H₇NO, contains one monomeric nickel(II) com­plex cation, two Cl⁻ anions and one di­methyl­form­amide sol­vent mol­ecule. The Ni atom is coordinated to each of two 1‐­(p‐chloro­phenyl)‐5‐iso­propyl­biguanide (proguanil) ligands via two N atoms. The complex exhibits a square‐planar coordination, with the Ni atom lying 0.021 (2) Å out of the basal plane. The crystal packing is characterized by several hydrogen bonds.     

A one‐dimensional ladder‐like coordination polymer derived from chains formed via hydrogen bonds: catena‐poly­[[aqua­di­pyridine­nickel(II)]‐μ‐2,2′‐di­thio­dibenzoato‐κ3O,O′:O′′]

The title one‐dimensional chain nickel(II)–di­sulfide complex, [Ni(C₁₄H₈O₄S₂)(C₅H₅N)₂(H₂O)]_n, has each Ni^II cation coordinated by two N atoms from two pyridine ligands, three carboxyl­ate O atoms from two different di­thio­dibenzoate ligands and one O atom from a coordinated water mol­ecule, in a distorted octahedral coordination geometry. Each di­thio­dibenzoate ion links two Ni^II cations through its carboxyl­ate O atoms, making the structure polymeric. Hydro­gen‐bond interactions between two shoulder‐to‐shoulder chains lead to the formation of a ladder‐like structure.     

Berberine formate–succinic acid (1/1)

The title compound [systematic name: 9,10‐di­methoxy‐2,3‐methyl­ene­dioxy‐5,6‐di­hydro­dibenzo­[a,g]­quinolizinium form­ate–succinic acid (1/1)], C₂₀H₁₈NO₄⁺·CHO₂⁻·C₄H₆O₄, con­tains centrosymmetric pairs of almost planar berberine cations, and hydrogen‐bonded (C₄H₆O₄⋯HCOO⁻)₂ rings of succinic acid with formate anions, bonded by O—H⋯O hydrogen bonds with O⋯O distances of 2.4886 (15) and 2.5652 (16) Å. Pairs of cations and mol­ecules of succinic acid are connected by non‐conventional weak C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds, with C⋯O distances of 3.082 (2) and 3.178 (2) Å.     

Charge‐transfer complexes of 4‐(di­methyl­amino)­pyridine with 2,4‐, 3,4‐ and 3,5‐di­nitro­benzoic acid

In the three title crystal structures 4‐(di­methyl­amino)­pyridinium 2,4‐di­nitro­benzoate, (I), 4‐(di­methyl­amino)­pyri­dinium 3,4‐di­nitro­benzo­ate, (II), and 4‐(di­methyl­amino)pyri­din­ium 3,5‐di­nitro­benzo­ate, (III), all C₇H₁₁N₂⁺·C₇H₃N₂O₆^?, the ions are connected by an N—H?O hydrogen bond. Dihedral angles between the pyridine and phenyl rings are 69.9 (1), 26.7 (1) and 56.2 (1)° in (I), (II) and (III), respectively. Donor–acceptor π–π stacking is observed in (II) and (III), but not in (I).
