2‐Amino‐5‐methyl­pyridinium (2‐amino‐5‐methyl­pyridine)trichloro­zincate(II)

The title compound, (C₆H₉N₂)[ZnCl₃(C₆H₈N₂)], consists of one 2‐amino‐5‐methyl­pyridinium cation and one (2‐amino‐5‐methyl­pyridine)trichloro­zincate(II) anion, which are held together by N—H·Cl hydrogen bonds and π–π inter­actions. The cation and the pyridine ligand show similar geometric features, except for the N—C bond lengths. Mol­ecules of the title compound are connected by N—H·Cl hydrogen bonds to form chiral chains; these chains are associated further by C—H·Cl hydrogen bonds to form layers, which are in turn linked by π–π inter­actions.     

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′‐Hydro­xy­bi­phenyl‐4‐carbo­nitrile

The title compound, C₁₃H₉NO, crystallizes with four mol­ecules in the asymmetric unit. Each of the four crystallographically independent mol­ecules forms a chain parallel to the a axis with symmetry‐equivalent mol­ecules. These chains are held together by similar O—H·NC hydrogen bonds, with approximately linear O—H·N angles and significantly bent H·N—C angles. The four different mol­ecules are related by strong elements of pseudosymmetry. To better describe the pseudosymmetry, the structure has been reported in the non‐standard space group .

Tartronic acid forms a hydrogen‐bonded complex, C₅H₅NO·C₃H₄O₅, (I), with 2‐pyridone, while it forms acid salts, namely 3‐hydroxy­pyridinium hydrogen tartronate, (II), and 4‐hy­droxy­pyridinium hydrogen tartronate, (III), both C₅H₆NO⁺·C₃H₃O₅⁻, with 3‐hydroxy­pyridine and 4‐hydroxy­pyridine, respectively.

In (II) and (III), the cations and anions are linked by N—H⋯O and O—H⋯O hydrogen bonds to form a hydrogen‐bonded chain. In each of (I), (II) and (III), an intermolecular hydrogen bond is formed between a carboxyl group and the hydroxyl group attached to the central C atom, and in (I), the hydroxyl group participates in an intramolecular hydrogen bond with a carbonyl group. No intermolecular hydrogen bond is formed between the carboxyl groups in (I), or between the carboxyl and carboxyl­ate groups in (II) and (III).     

Triclinic and orthorhombic polymorphs of 2‐iodo‐4‐nitro­aniline: interplay of hydrogen bonds,nitro⃛I interactions and aromatic π–π‐stacking interactions

In the triclinic polymorph of 2‐iodo‐4‐nitro­aniline, C₆H₅IN₂O₂, space group P, the mol­ecules are linked by paired N—­H?O hydrogen bonds into C(8)[R(6)] chains of rings.

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.
