Head‐to‐head dimers in the zwitterion of 1‐hydroxy‐1‐phosphono‐3‐(1‐piperidino)propylidene‐1‐phosphonate (PHPBP)

The title compound, C₈H₁₉NO₇P₂, is a member of the bis­phosphonate family of therapeutic compounds. PHPBP has inner‐salt character, consisting of a negatively charged PO₃ group and a positively charged N atom. The six‐membered piperidine ring adopts an almost‐perfect chair conformation. The hydroxyl group and the N atom have gauche and trans conformations in relation to the O—C—C—C—N backbone, respectively. Hydrogen bonding is the main contributor to the packing in the crystal, which consists of head‐to‐head dimers formed through phosphonyl–phosphonyl hydrogen bonds, while O—H⋯O and N—H⋯O interactions join the dimers into a plane parallel to crystallographic b and c axes.     

1‐Phenyl‐5‐(piperidino­methyl)‐1H‐tetrazole

In the mol­ecule of the title 1,5‐disubstituted tetrazole, C₁₃H₁₇N₅, the tetrazole and benzene rings are not coplanar, having a dihedral angle of 42.96 (5)° between them. The piperidine fragment adopts a chair conformation, and there is a non‐classical intramolecular contact between the benzene H atom and the piperidine N atom. Intermolecular C—H⋯π interactions involving the piperidine C—H groups and the benzene rings are responsible for the formation of two‐dimensional networks, extending parallel to the ab plane. These networks are linked together into a three‐dimensional polymeric structure viaπ–π stacking interactions between the tetrazole rings of two adjacent mol­ecules.     

N1‐(4‐tert‐Butyl­phenyl)‐N2‐hydroxy‐α‐oxo‐α‐phenyl­acet­amidine and N2‐hydroxy‐N1‐(4‐nitro­phenyl)‐α‐oxo‐α‐phenyl­acet­amidine hemihydrate

In the title compounds, C₁₈H₂₀N₂O₂, (I), and C₁₄H₁₁N₃O₄·0.5H₂O, (II), respectively, the oxime groups have an E configuration. In (I), the mol­ecules exist as polymers bound by intermolecular C—H⋯O and O—H⋯N hydrogen bonds around inversion centres. In (II), intermolecular OW—H⋯N, OW—H⋯O and O—H⋯OW interactions stabilize the molecular packing.     

{4(S)‐(Piperidin‐1‐ylcarbonyl)‐4‐[3‐(trifluoro­methyl)phenylsulfon­amido]butyl}guanidinium chloride: a model of a graftable thrombin inhibitor

In the title compound, C₁₈H₂₇F₃N₅O₃S⁺·Cl⁻, the guanidine group forms N—H⋯Cl hydrogen bonds, with four N⋯Cl distances in the range 3.164 (3)–3.337 (4) Å. In the crystal packing, the cations are further linked by N—H⋯O and C—H⋯O inter­actions. The structure is compared with that of argatroban complexed with thrombin and is the subject of docking studies in the active site of thrombin.     

6‐(2‐Fluorobenzylidene)‐2‐[1‐(2‐fluoro‐4‐biphenyl)ethyl]thiazolo[3,2‐b][1,2,4]triazol‐5(6H)‐one

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

In the title compound, C₈H₁₂N⁺·C₈HN₄O₂⁻, the anion and cation lie on a crystallographic mirror plane and form planar ribbons via N—H⋯O [N⋯O = 2.933 (4) Å, H⋯O = 2.01 Å and N—H⋯O = 170°] and N—H⋯N [N⋯N = 3.016 (5) Å, H⋯N = 2.15 Å and N—H⋯N = 169°] hydrogen bonds. The ribbons are further linked via weak C—H⋯O and C—H⋯N hydrogen bonds. In adjacent planes, anions lie opposite cations; π–π interactions (separation a/2 = 3.520 Å) exist between the anions and the cations, and stacks are formed, running along the a axis. The cations are disordered over two interpenetrating sites, with occupancies of 0.833 (5) and 0.167 (5).     

4‐(4‐Fluoro‐3‐phenoxy­phen­yl)‐6‐(4‐fluoro­phen­yl)‐2‐oxo‐1,2‐dihydro­pyridine‐3‐carbonitrile and the 6‐(4‐methyl­phen­yl)‐ analogue

The crystal structures of the title compounds, viz. C₂₄H₁₄F₂N₂O₂, (I), and C₂₅H₁₇FN₂O₂, (II), respectively, have been determined in order to unravel the role of an ordered F atom in generating stable supra­molecular assemblies. On changing the substitution from fluorine to a methyl group, C—H⋯F inter­actions are replaced by C—H⋯π inter­actions, revealing the importance of such weak inter­actions when present alongside N—H⋯O and C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds. The dihedral angle between the planes of the 4‐fluoro­phenyl ring and the pyridine ring is 26.8 (1)° in (I), while that between the planes of the 4‐methyl­phenyl and pyridine rings is 29.5 (1)° in (II).     

Bromo­(η4‐cyclo­octa‐1,5‐diene)[1‐(2,3,4,5,6‐penta­fluoro­benz­yl)‐3‐(2,4,6‐trimethyl­benz­yl)benzimidazol‐2‐yl­idene]rhodium(I)

The title complex, [RhBr(C₈H₁₂)(C₂₄H₁₉F₅N₂)], has a distorted pseudo‐square‐planar geometry. The Rh—C bond distance between the N‐heterocyclic ligand and the metal atom is 2.022 (3) Å. The angle between the carbene heterocycle and the coordination plane is 75.60 (11)°. It is shown that the average Rh—C(cyclo­octa­diene) distance is linearly dependent on the Rh—C(imidazole) distance in this type of compound. The crystal structure contains one intra­molecular and two inter­molecular types of C—H⋯F inter­actions, as well as one type of π–π stacking inter­action.     

6‐Amino‐2‐(3,4‐di­methoxy­benzyl­amino)‐3‐methyl‐5‐nitro­so­pyrimidin‐4(3H)‐one: hydrogen‐bonded sheets form interdigitated bilayers

Molecules of the title compound, C₁₄H₁₇N₅O₄, exhibit a highly polarized molecular–electronic structure. The mol­ecules are linked into sheets by two N—H⋯O hydrogen bonds [H⋯O = 2.03 and 2.02 Å, N⋯O = 2.836 (2) and 2.887 (2) Å, and N—H⋯O = 153 and 168°], augmented by a single C—H⋯O hydrogen bond [H⋯O = 2.47 Å, C⋯O = 3.403 (2) Å and C—H⋯O = 166°]. Pairs of sheets, related by inversion, form bilayers with interdigitated di­methoxy­benzyl substituents, weakly linked by a further C—H⋯O interaction [H⋯O = 2.50 Å, C⋯O = 3.350 (2) Å and C—H⋯O = 146°].     

Three‐dimensional hydrogen‐bonding supramolecular architecture of 2‐(3‐pyridinio)‐5‐(3‐pyridyl)‐1,3,4‐oxa­diazole perchlorate

In the crystal structure of the title compound, C₁₂H₉N₄O⁺·ClO₄⁻, the protonated cation adopts a cis‐I conformation and approximately planar geometry. Each perchlorate anion acts as the acceptor of three C—H⋯O weak interactions, which, together with N—H⋯N and C—H⋯N hydrogen bonds between the protonated cations, extend this structure into a three‐dimensional hydrogen‐bonded network.

1,1′‐(Ethenyl­idene)bis­(4‐chloro­benzene)

The title compound, C₁₄H₁₀Cl₂, crystallizes as colourless prisms with two symmetry‐independent mol­ecules in the unit cell. Numerous inter­molecular C—H⋯π inter­actions dominate in the crystal structure, where C—H⋯Cl and long Cl⋯Cl contacts are also observed.     

π‐Stacked hydrogen‐bonded dimers in 2‐(2‐nitro­phenyl­amino­carbonyl)­benzoic acid,and hydrogen‐bonded sheets in orthorhombic and monoclinic polymorphs of 2‐(4‐nitro­phenyl­amino­carbonyl)­benzoic acid

Molecules of 2‐(2‐nitrophenylaminocarbonyl)benzoic acid, C₁₄H₁₀N₂O₅, are linked into centrosymmetric R(8) dimers by a single O—H⋯O hydrogen bond [H⋯O = 1.78 Å, O⋯O = 2.623 (2) Å and O—H⋯O = 178°] and these dimers are linked into sheets by a single aromatic π–π stacking interaction. The isomeric compound 2‐(4‐nitrophenylaminocarbonyl)benzoic acid crystallizes in two polymorphic forms. In the orthorhombic form (space group P2₁2₁2₁ with Z′ = 1, crystallized from ethanol), the mol­ecules are linked into sheets of R(22) rings by a combination of one N—H⋯O hydrogen bond [H⋯O = 1.96 Å, N⋯O = 2.833 (3) Å and N—H⋯O = 171°] and one O—H⋯O hydrogen bond [H⋯O = 1.78 Å, O⋯O = 2.614 (3) Å and O—H⋯O = 173°]. In the monoclinic form (space group P2₁/n with Z′ = 2, crystallized from acetone), the mol­ecules are linked by a combination of two N—H⋯O hydrogen bonds [H⋯O = 2.09 and 2.16 Å, N⋯O = 2.873 (4) and 2.902 (3) Å, and N—H⋯O = 147 and 141°] and two O—H⋯O hydrogen bonds [H⋯O = 1.84 and 1.83 Å, O⋯O = 2.664 (3) and 2.666 (3) Å, and O—H⋯O = 166 and 174°] into sheets of some complexity. These sheets are linked into a three‐dimensional framework by a single C—H⋯O hydrogen bond [H⋯O = 2.45 Å, C⋯O = 3.355 (4) Å and C—­H⋯O = 160°].     

(R)‐N‐[(R)‐1‐(2‐Hydroxy‐5‐methyl­phenyl)‐2‐phenyl­ethyl]‐2‐methyl‐1‐phenyl­propyl­ammonium chloride

In the title compound, C₂₅H₃₀NO⁺·Cl⁻, the mol­ecules are linked by a combination of inter­molecular N—H⋯Cl and O—H⋯Cl hydrogen bonds and intra­molecular N—H⋯O hydrogen bonds. The absolute configuration of the new stereogenic centre (the C atom adjacent to the N atom on the phenol side) is determined to have an R configuration.     

2,2′‐(Iminodimethylene)bis(1H‐benzimidazolium)(1+) chloride

The title compound, C₁₆H₁₆N₅⁺·Cl⁻ (nbbH⁺·Cl⁻), displays N—H⋯N, N—H⋯Cl and π–π inter­actions in the crystal packing. The Cl⁻ anion is chelated by the nbbH⁺ cation via two N—H⋯Cl hydrogen bonds. Inter‐ion N—H⋯N and N—H⋯Cl hydrogen bonds link ions related by 2₁ screw axes into chains along the c axis. These chains are further linked by glide‐plane operations to generate a three‐dimensional network, which is additionally stabilized by inter­chain π–π inter­actions.     

3‐(4‐Acetyl­phenyl)‐1‐(4‐nitro­phenyl)­triazene

The crystal structure of the title compound, C₁₄H₁₂N₄O₃, shows that the stereochemistry about the N=N double bond of the N=N—N(H) moiety is trans. The whole mol­ecule is almost planar (r.m.s. deviation = 0.0654 Å), the interplanar angle between the phenyl rings being 0.7 (1)° and the largest interplanar angle being that between the phenyl ring and the nitro group of the 4‐nitro­phenyl substituent [11.5 (2)°]. Intermolecular N—H⋯O interactions between mol­ecules related by translation give rise to chains along the [110] and [10] directions, and these chains are held together by N⋯O π–π interactions. An unequal distribution of the double‐bond character among the N atoms suggests a delocalization of π electrons over the diazo­amine group and the adjacent aryl substituents.     

A hydrogen‐bonded heterodimer of 1‐(4‐hexyloxyphenyl)pyridin‐4(1H)‐one with 4‐cyano­benzoic acid

The two components of the title heterodimer, C₁₇H₂₁NO₂·C₈H₅NO₂, are linked end‐to‐end via O—H⋯O(=C) and C—H⋯O(=C) hydrogen‐bond inter­actions. Additional lateral C—H⋯O inter­actions link the dimers in a side‐by‐side fashion to produce wide infinite mol­ecular ribbons. Adjacent ribbons are inter­connected viaπ–π stacking and C—H⋯π(arene) inter­actions. This structure represents the first evidence of robust hydrogen‐bond formation between the moieties of pyridin‐4(1H)‐one and benzoic acid.     

Ethyl (E)‐3‐(2‐hydroxy­phenyl)‐2‐(morpholino­carbonyl)­propenoate

The title compound, C₁₆H₁₉NO₅, crystallizes as a centrosymmetric dimer through strong O—H⋯O hydrogen‐bonding interactions between the hydroxy­phenyl and morpholino­carbonyl groups. The morpholino­carbonyl group is almost perpendicular to the propenoate moiety. Electron delocalization in the N—C(=O) fragment leads to the formation of hydrogen‐bonded S(5) ring motifs through C—H⋯O interactions.
