Dimorphism in (2Z)‐2‐benzyl­idene‐N,7‐dimethyl‐3‐oxo‐5‐phenyl‐2,3‐dihydro‐5H‐1,3‐thia­zolo[3,2‐a]pyrimidine‐6‐carboxamide

The title compound, C₂₂H₁₉N₃O₂S, crystallizes in two polymorphic forms having the same space group, viz. P, with Z′ = 2 and Z′ = 1. In both polymorphs, the planar thia­zole ring is fused cis with the dihydro­pyrimidine ring, the carbamoyl group is in an extended conformation with an anti­clinal orientation with respect to the pyrimidine ring, and the phenyl ring is attached to the pyrimidine ring approximately at a right angle. The two polymorphs have different inter­planar angles between the phenyl and thia­zole rings. The mol­ecules are linked by N—H⋯O and C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds.     

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).     

Benzoin 4‐ethyl­thio­semicarbazone

In the title compound, 2‐hydr­oxy‐1,2‐diphenyl­ethanone 4‐ethyl­thio­semicarbazone, C₁₇H₁₉N₃OS, the thio­semi­carbazone moiety is planar and has an E configuration. The planar phenyl rings make dihedral angles of 82.34 (8) and 8.07 (17)° with the plane of the thio­semicarbazone moiety. The crystal structure contains two intra­molecular (N—H⋯O and N—H⋯N) and one inter­molecular inter­action (O—H⋯S), as well as two C—H⋯π(benzene) inter­actions. Mol­ecules are stacked in columns running along the a axis. Mol­ecules in each column are connected to each other by means of linear O—H⋯S hydrogen bonds and C—H⋯π inter­actions. In addition, there are also C—H⋯π(benzene) inter­actions between the columns.     

Hydrogen bonding in meso‐4,5‐diphenyl‐3,6‐diaza­octane‐1,8‐diol: the formation of one‐dimensional linear chains of edge‐fused rings

The molecule of the title compound, C₁₈H₂₄N₂O₂, resides on a crystallographic inversion centre. The mol­ecule adopts a transoid conformation with respect to the central C—C single bond and is in the meso form. A polarimetric study of the compound did not show any optical activity, indicating that the compound is a racemic mixture entirely consistent with the centrosymmetric space group. In the mol­ecule, there is one intra­molecular N—H⋯O inter­action, resulting in the formation of a five‐membered ring. In the crystal structure, inter­molecular O—H⋯N and C—H⋯O inter­actions are also observed. These inter­actions form an R₂²(9) ring and one‐dimensional linear chains of edge‐fused rings running parallel to the [010] direction, which stabilize the crystal packing.     

1,17‐Diphenyl‐2,4,6,8,10,12,14,16‐octa­oxahepta­deca­ne

The title compound, C₂₁H₂₈O₈, crystallizes with two independent mol­ecules, each with a crystallographic twofold axis passing through the central CH₂ group. The two mol­ecules have different orientations of the terminal benzyl groups. The average C—O bond length in the polyoxymethyl­ene helix, corrected for librational motion, is 1.419 Å. The mol­ecules are connected into layers by inter­molecular C—H⋯O and C—H⋯π(phenyl) inter­actions.     

(±)‐Methyl and (±)‐ethyl 4‐(2,3‐di­fluoro­phen­yl)‐2,6,6‐trimethyl‐5‐oxo‐1,4,5,6,7,8‐hexa­hydro­quinoline‐3‐carboxyl­ate

The title compounds, C₂₀H₂₁F₂NO₃ and C₂₁H₂₃F₂NO₃, respectively, belong to a class of 1,4‐dihydro­pyridines whose members sometimes display calcium modulatory properties. The 1,4‐dihydro­pyridine rings have the usual shallow boat conformation. In each structure, the 2,3‐difluoro­phenyl ring is oriented such that the fluoro substituents are in a synperi­planar orientation with respect to the 1,4‐dihydro­pyridine ring plane and the oxocyclo­hexene ring has a slightly distorted envelope conformation. Both structures exhibit the same inter­molecular N—H⋯O hydrogen‐bonding motif, in which the mol­ecules are linked into chains by inter­actions involving the carbonyl O atom of the oxocyclo­hexene ring.     

Two N‐substituted 3,5‐diphenyl‐2‐pyrazoline‐1‐thiocarboxamides

The structures of N‐ethyl‐3‐(4‐fluoro­phen­yl)‐5‐(4‐methoxy­phen­yl)‐2‐pyrazoline‐1‐thio­carboxamide, C₁₉H₂₀FN₃OS, (I), and 3‐(4‐fluoro­phen­yl)‐N‐methyl‐5‐(4‐methyl­phen­yl)‐2‐pyrazoline‐1‐thio­carboxamide, C₁₈H₁₈FN₃S, (II), have similar geometric parameters. The meth­oxy/methyl‐substituted phenyl groups are almost perpendicular to the pyrazoline (pyraz) ring [inter­planar angles of 89.29 (8) and 80.39 (10)° for (I) and (II), respectively], which is coplanar with the fluoro­phenyl ring [inter­planar angles of 5.72 (9) and 10.48 (10)°]. The pyrazoline ring approximates an envelope conformation in both structures, with the two‐coordinate N atom involved in an intra­molecular N—H⋯N_pyraz inter­action. In (I), N—H⋯O and C—H⋯S inter­molecular hydrogen bonds are the primary inter­actions, whereas in (II), there are no intermolecular hydrogen bonds.     

N‐(3H‐Thia­zol‐2‐yl­idene)­nitr­amine and N‐methyl‐N‐(thia­zol‐2‐yl)­nitr­amine

The geometries of the thia­zole ring and the nitr­amino groups in N‐(3H‐thia­zol‐2‐yl­idene)­nitr­amine, C₃H₃N₃O₂S, (I), and N‐­methyl‐N‐(thia­zol‐2‐yl)­nitr­amine, C₄H₅N₃O₂S, (II), are very similar. The nitr­amine group in (II) is planar and twisted along the C—N bond with respect to the thia­zole ring. In both structures, the asymmetric unit includes two practically equal mol­ecules. In (I), the mol­ecules are arranged in layers connected to each other by N—H⋯N and much weaker C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds. In the crystal structure of (II), the mol­ecules are arranged in layers bound to each other by both weak C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds and S⋯O dipolar interactions.     

Constructor graph description of hydrogen bonding in a supra­molecular assembly of N,N′‐bis­(2‐hydr­oxy‐1‐methyl­ethyl)phthalamide

Hydrogen bonds of four types (N—H⋯O=C, N—H⋯OH, O—H⋯O=C and O—H⋯OH) connect mol­ecules of the title compound, C₁₄H₂₀N₂O₄, in the crystal into sheets folded into a zigzag pattern. The inter­molecular inter­actions are discussed in terms of the first‐ through fourth‐level graph sets, and a constructor graph helps visualize the supra­molecular assembly.     

Salicylaldehyde 4,4′‐(hexane‐1,6‐di­yl)­thio­semicarbazone

The title compound, C₁₄H₁₉N₃OS, is in the thio­keto form, with the thione S and hydrazine N atoms cis with respect to each other so that the S atom is involved in inter‐ and intra­molecular hydrogen bonds simultaneously. Inter­molecular C—H⋯S and C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds result in one‐dimensional polymeric chains of mol­ecules along the a axis. A weak C—H⋯π ring inter­action binds the polymeric chains together.     

1‐(4,6‐Diethoxy­pyrimidin‐2‐yl)‐2‐thioxo‐2,3‐dihydro­pyrido[2,3‐d]pyrimidin‐4(1H)‐one

In the title compound, C₁₅H₁₅N₅O₃S, two parallel inter­molecular N—H⋯S hydrogen bonds, forming an eight‐membered ring, link two mol­ecules into a dimer unit; these dimer units linked into a chain of edge‐fused rings by weak C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds.     

N—H⋯N and C—H⋯π inter­actions in 4‐amino‐3‐methyl‐5‐(p‐tol­yl)‐4H‐1,2,4‐triazole and 4‐amino‐3‐methyl‐5‐phenyl‐4H‐1,2,4‐triazole

The title compounds, C₁₀H₁₂N₄, (I), and C₉H₁₀N₄, (II), have been synthesized and characterized both spectroscopically and structurally. The dihedral angles between the triazole and benzene ring planes are 26.59 (9) and 42.34 (2)°, respectively. In (I), mol­ecules are linked principally by N—H⋯N hydrogen bonds involving the amino NH₂ group and a triazole N atom, forming R₄⁴(20) and R₂⁴(10) rings which link to give a three‐dimensional network of mol­ecules. The hydrogen bonding is supported by two different C—H⋯π inter­actions from the tolyl ring to either a triazole ring or a tolyl ring in neighboring mol­ecules. In (II), inter­molecular hydrogen bonds and C—H⋯π inter­actions produce R₃⁴(15) and R₄⁴(21) rings.     

Supramolecular structures of three isomeric 4‐(methyl­phenylamino)­pyridine‐3‐sulfonamides

The structures of the three title isomers, namely 4‐(2‐methyl­anilino)pyridine‐3‐sulfonamide, (I), 4‐(3‐methyl­anilino)pyridine‐3‐sulfonamide, (II), and 4‐(4‐methyl­anilino)pyridine‐3‐sulfonamide, (III), all C₁₂H₁₃N₃O₂S, differ in their hydrogen‐bonding arrangements. In all three mol­ecules, the conformation of the 4‐amino­pyridine‐3‐sulfon­amide moiety is conserved by an intra­molecular N—H⋯O hydrogen bond and a C—H⋯O inter­action. In the supra­mol­ecular structures of all three isomers, similar C(6) chains are formed via inter­molecular N—H⋯N hydrogen bonds. N—H⋯O hydrogen bonds lead to C(4) chains in (I), and to R₂²(8) centrosymmetric dimers in (II) and (III). In each isomer, the overall effect of all hydrogen bonds is to form layer structures.     

Dichloro­(O‐ethyl 3‐methyl­pyridine‐2‐carboximidic acid‐κ2N,N′)copper(II)

In the title compound, [CuCl₂(C₉H₁₂N₂O)], the Cu^II atom is coordinated by two Cl⁻ anions and two N atoms of one O‐ethyl 3‐methyl­pyridine‐2‐carboximidic acid mol­ecule in a slightly distorted square‐planar geometry, with Cu—N distances of 2.0483 (17) and 1.9404 (18) Å, and Cu—Cl distances of 2.2805 (10) and 2.2275 (14) Å. In addition, each Cu^II atom is connected by one Cl⁻ anion and the Cu^II atom from a neighbouring mol­ecule, with Cu⋯Cl and Cu⋯Cu distances of 2.9098 (13) and 3.4022 (12) Å, respectively, and, therefore, a centrosymmetric dimer is formed. Adjacent mol­ecular dimers are connected by π–π stacking inter­actions between pyridine rings to form a zigzag mol­ecular chain. The mol­ecular chains are also enforced by N—H⋯Cl and C—H⋯Cl inter­actions.     

1‐((E)‐{(1R,2R)‐2‐[(E)‐(2‐Hydr­oxy‐1‐naphth­yl)methyl­eneamino]cyclo­hexyl}iminiometh­yl)naphthalen‐2‐olate: a Schiff base compound having both OH and NH character

The title Schiff base compound, C₂₈H₂₆N₂O₂, possesses both OH and NH tautomeric character in its mol­ecular structure. While the OH side of the compound is described as an inter­mediate state, its NH side adopts a predominantly zwitterionic form. The mol­ecular structure of the compound is stabilized by both N⁺—H⋯O⁻ and O—H⋯N intra­molecular hydrogen bonds. There are two weak C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds leading to polymeric chains of topology C(5) and C(13) running along the b axis of the unit cell. In addition, inter­molecular C—H⋯π inter­actions serve to stabilize the extended structure.     

Chains of edge‐fused hydrogen‐bonded R33(22) rings in 5,3′‐dihydr­oxy‐3,6,7,4′,5′‐penta­methoxy­flavone

The title compound [systematic name: 5‐hydroxy‐2‐(3‐hydroxy‐4,5‐dimethoxy­phenyl)‐3,6,7‐trimethoxy‐4H‐chromen‐4‐one], C₂₀H₂₀O₉, was isolated from the seeds of Cleom viscosa Linn. Two independent mol­ecules (A and B) are present in the asymmetric unit with almost similar conformations. The dihedral angles between the fused chromene ring system and the benzene ring bonded to it in mol­ecules A and B are 4.2 (1) and 12.7 (1)°, respectively. The hydroxy O atoms are involved in intra­molecular hydrogen bonding. The mol­ecules are linked by C—H⋯O and O—H⋯O inter­actions into chains of edge‐fused R₃³(22) rings. Aromatic π–π and weak C—H⋯π(arene) inter­actions are also observed.     

Naphthalene‐1,7‐diol

The asymmetric unit of the title compound, C₁₀H₈O₂, contains two planar symmetry‐independent mol­ecules linked by an O—H⋯O hydrogen bond. In the crystal structure, mol­ecules are linked into infinite chains of rings, formed by a combination of O—H⋯O and C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds, and additionally reinforced by π–π stacking inter­actions. Adjacent chains are connected by weak C—H⋯π inter­actions.     

Proton‐bifurcated C—H⋯(O,O) hydrogen bonds in 2,3‐dichloro‐6‐nitro­benzyl­aminium chloride

In the crystal structure of the title salt, C₇H₇Cl₂N₂O₂⁺·Cl⁻, the chloride anions participate in extensive hydrogen bonding with the aminium cations and indirectly link the mol­ecules through multiple N⁺—H⋯Cl⁻ salt bridges. There are two independent mol­ecules in the asymmetric unit, related by a pseudo‐inversion center. The direct inter­molecular coupling is established by C—H⋯O, C—H⋯Cl and C—Cl⋯Cl⁻ inter­actions. A rare three‐center (donor bifurcated) C—H⋯(O,O) hydrogen bond is observed between the methyl­ene and nitro groups, with a side‐on intra­molecular component of closed‐ring type and a head‐on inter­molecular component.     

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.     

Secondary inter­actions in two related terphenyl derivatives: 2′,5′‐dimethyl‐p‐terphenyl and 2′,5′‐bis­(bromo­meth­yl)‐p‐terphen­yl

In 2′,5′‐dimethyl‐p‐terphenyl, C₂₀H₁₈, which displays pseudosymmetry (the true space group is Pna2₁, but less satisfactory refinement can also be achieved in Pbcn), the mol­ecules are linked into chains by two short C—H⋯π inter­actions to the centroid of the central ring. In 2′,5′‐bis­(bromo­meth­yl)‐p‐terphenyl, C₂₀H₁₆Br₂, the polar CH₂Br groups cause mol­ecules to aggregate via C—H⋯Br and Br⋯Br inter­actions, forming a layer structure, in which the phenyl rings project outwards from the central, more polar, region.
