4‐Pyridone–terephthalic acid–water (2/1/2) and bis(3‐hydroxypyridinium) terephthalate

4‐Hydroxypyridine and terephthalic acid cocrystallize as a hydrate, 4‐pyridone–terephthalic acid–water (2/1/2), 2C₅H₅NO·C₈H₆O₄·2H₂O, from a methanol–water solution. The molecules form a two‐dimensional hydrogen‐bonded network resulting in sheets of hydrogen‐bonded molecules that lie parallel to the (10) plane. In contrast, 3‐hydroxypyridine and terephthalic acid form the salt bis(3‐hydroxypyridinium) terephthalate, 2C₅H₆NO⁺·C₈H₄O₄²⁻, giving rise to two‐dimensional hydrogen‐bonded sheets extending through the lattice parallel to the (10) plane.     

The acid adducts hydrazinium 2‐hydroxybenzoate–2‐hydroxybenzoic acid (1/1) and hydrazinium 3‐hydroxy‐2‐naphthoate–3‐hydroxy‐2‐naphthoic acid (1/1)

The title molecular salts, N₂H₅⁺·C₇H₅O₃⁻·C₇H₆O₃ and N₂H₅⁺·C₁₁H₇O₃⁻·C₁₁H₈O₃, are acid adducts containing a hydrazinium cation, one molecule of a deprotonated acid and one molecule of a neutral acid. The two compounds contain essentially identical hydrogen‐bond networks between the hydrazinium cation and the acid molecules, which define closely comparable two‐dimensional layers in the structures. The planes of the aromatic rings within both structures are approximately parallel and the layers are stacked with comparable intermolecular interactions.     

Comparison of the hydrogen‐bond patterns in 2‐amino‐1,3,4‐thiadiazolium hydrogen oxalate, 2‐amino‐1,3,4‐thiadiazole–succinic acid (1/2), 2‐amino‐1,3,4‐thiadiazole–glutaric acid (1/1) and 2‐amino‐1,3,4‐thiadiazole–adipic acid (1/1)

The X‐ray single‐crystal structure determinations of the chemically related compounds 2‐amino‐1,3,4‐thiadiazolium hydrogen oxalate, C₂H₄N₃S⁺·C₂HO₄⁻, (I), 2‐amino‐1,3,4‐thiadiazole–succinic acid (1/2), C₂H₃N₃S·2C₄H₆O₄, (II), 2‐amino‐1,3,4‐thiadiazole–glutaric acid (1/1), C₂H₃N₃S·C₅H₈O₄, (III), and 2‐amino‐1,3,4‐thiadiazole–adipic acid (1/1), C₂H₃N₃S·C₆H₁₀O₄, (IV), are reported and their hydrogen‐bonding patterns are compared. The hydrogen bonds are of the types N—H...O or O—H...N and are of moderate strength. In some cases, weak C—H...O interactions are also present. Compound (II) differs from the others not only in the molar ratio of base and acid (1:2), but also in its hydrogen‐bonding pattern, which is based on chain motifs. In (I), (III) and (IV), the most prominent feature is the presence of an R₂²(8) graph‐set motif formed by N—H...O and O—H...N hydrogen bonds, which are present in all structures except for (I), where only a pair of N—H...O hydrogen bonds is present, in agreement with the greater acidity of oxalic acid. There are nonbonding S...O interactions present in all four structures. The difference electron‐density maps show a lack of electron density about the S atom along the S...O vector. In all four structures, the carboxylic acid H atoms are present in a rare configuration with a C—C—O—H torsion angle of ∼0°. In the structures of (II)–(IV), the C—C—O—H torsion angle of the second carboxylic acid group has the more common value of ∼|180|°. The dicarboxylic acid molecules are situated on crystallographic inversion centres in (II). The Raman and IR spectra of the title compounds are presented and analysed.

The title bimolecular compound, C₄H₅N₃·C₂₁H₁₈O₂, constructed from 2‐aminopyrimidine and 3,3,3‐triphenylpropanoic acid, forms a tetramolecular hydrogen‐bonded motif via O—H...N, N—H...O and N—H...N contacts. This aggregate organizes to give crystal‐packing motifs with hydrophilic and hydrophobic regions.     

(Z)‐1‐Ferrocenyl‐3‐(3‐hydroxy­anilino)­but‐2‐en‐1‐one and (Z)‐1‐ferrocenyl‐3‐(4‐hydroxy­anilino)­but‐2‐en‐1‐one

The title compounds, both [Fe(C₅H₅)(C₁₅H₁₄NO₂)], crystallize with Z′ = 2 in the centrosymmetric space group P. In each compound, there is an intra­molecular N—H⋯O=C hydrogen bond, and pairs of inter­molecular O—H⋯O=C hydrogen bonds link the mol­ecules into chains, parallel to [10] in the 3‐hydr­oxy compound and parallel to [10] in the 4‐hydr­oxy compound.     

2‐Amino­pyridinium–fumarate–fumaric acid (2/1/1)

The title complex, 2C₅H₇N₂⁺·C₄H₂O₄²⁻·C₄H₄O₄, contains cyclic eight‐membered hydrogen‐bonded rings involving 2‐­aminopyridinium and fumarate ions. The fumaric acid mol­ecules and fumarate ions lie on inversion centers and are linked into zigzag chains by O—H⋯O hydrogen bonds. The dihedral angle between the pyridinium ring and the hydrogen‐bonded fumarate ion is 7.60 (4)°. The fumarate anion is linked to the pyridinium cations by intermolecular N—H⋯O hydrogen bonds. The heterocycle is fully protonated, thus enabling amine–imine tautomerization.

In the title compound, [Ca(C₆H₅O₄)₂(C₆H₆O₄)₂]·4H₂O, which is a kojic acid–Ca²⁺ complex, the Ca atom is on a twofold axis and is octacoordinated by O atoms from four pyrone ligand mol­ecules. The hydroxyl and ketone O atoms of each ligand form a five‐membered chelate ring with the Ca atom. The crystal structure is stabilized by partial stacking and O—H?O hydrogen bonds.

(–)‐2‐(1,2,3,4,4a,5,6,7,8,8aα‐Decahydro‐4aβ,8α‐dimethyl‐7‐oxo‐2β‐naphthyl)propionic acid: catemeric hydrogen bonding in a bicyclic sesquiterpenoid ζ‐keto acid

In the title compound, C₁₅H₂₄O₃, derived from a naturally occurring sesquiterpenoid, the asymmetric unit consists of two mol­ecules differing by 167.4 (8)° in the rotational conformation of the carboxyl group. Each molecule aggregates separately with its own type as carboxyl‐to‐ketone hydrogen‐bonding catemers [O⋯O = 2.715 (6) and 2.772 (6) Å, and O—H⋯O = 169 and 168°]. This generates two crystallographically independent single‐strand hydrogen‐bonding helices passing through the cell in the b direction, with opposite end‐to‐end orientations. One intermolecular C—H⋯O=C close contact exists for the carboxyl group of one of the mol­ecules. The structure is isostructural with that of a closely related unsaturated keto acid reported previously.     

1:1 Adduct of (S,S)‐4‐amino‐3,5‐bis­(1‐hydroxy­ethyl)‐1,2,4‐triazole with (S,S)‐1,2‐bis­(2‐hydroxy­propionyl)­hydrazine stabilized by eight hydrogen bonds

All eight O‐ and N‐bound H atoms are involved in inter­molecular hydrogen bonds, resulting in infinite zigzag chains of the triazole mol­ecules, with the hydrazine mol­ecules filling the gaps between the chains and completing a three‐dimensional hydrogen‐bonded array.     

Weak hydrogen and halogen bonding in 4‐[(2,2‐difluoroethoxy)methyl]pyridinium iodide and 4‐[(3‐chloro‐2,2,3,3‐tetrafluoropropoxy)methyl]pyridinium iodide

To enable a comparison between a C—H…X hydrogen bond and a halogen bond, the structures of two fluorous‐substituted pyridinium iodide salts have been determined. 4‐[(2,2‐Difluoroethoxy)methyl]pyridinium iodide, C₈H₁₀F₂NO⁺·I⁻, (1), has a –CH₂OCH₂CF₂H substituent at the para position of the pyridinium ring and 4‐[(3‐chloro‐2,2,3,3‐tetrafluoropropoxy)methyl]pyridinium iodide, C₉H₉ClF₄NO⁺·I⁻, (2), has a –CH₂OCH₂CF₂CF₂Cl substituent at the para position of the pyridinium ring. In salt (1), the iodide anion is involved in one N—H…I and three C—H…I hydrogen bonds, which, together with C—H…F hydrogen bonds, link the cations and anions into a three‐dimensional network. For salt (2), the iodide anion is involved in one N—H…I hydrogen bond, two C—H…I hydrogen bonds and one C—Cl…I halogen bond; additional C—H…F and C—F…F interactions link the cations and anions into a three‐dimensional arrangement.     

The ternary complex 4‐(2‐pyridyl)pyridinium–3,5‐di­nitro­benzoate–3,5‐di­nitro­benzoic acid (1/1/1)

In the title ternary complex, C₁₀H₉N₂⁺·C₇H₃N₂O₆^?·C₇H₄N₂O₆, the pyridinium cation adopts the role of the donor in an intermolecular N—H?O hydrogen‐bonding interaction with the carboxyl­ate group of the 3,5‐di­nitro­benzoate anion. The mol­ecules of the ternary complex form molecular ribbons perpendicular to the b direction, which are stabilized by one N—H?O, one O—H?O and five C—H?O intermolecular hydrogen bonds. The ribbons are further interconnected by three intermolecular C—H?O hydrogen bonds into a three‐dimensional network.     

Hydrogen bonding in 1,2‐diazine–chloranilic acid (2/1) and 1,4‐diazine–chloranilic acid (2/1) determined at 110 K

The crystal structures of the isomeric title compounds [systematic names: pyridazine–2,5‐dichloro‐3,6‐dihydroxy‐p‐benzoquinone (2/1), (I), and pyrazine–2,5‐dichloro‐3,6‐dihydroxy‐p‐benzoquinone (2/1), (II)], 2C₄H₄N₂·C₆H₂Cl₂O₄, have been redetermined at 110 K. The H atom in the intermolecular O...H...N hydrogen bond in each compound was revealed to be disordered; the relative occupancies at the O and N sites are 0.33 (3) and 0.67 (3), respectively, for (I), and 0.56 (4) and 0.44 (4) for (II). The formal charges of the chloranilic acid in (I) and (II) estimated from the occupancy factors are ca−1.3 and −0.8, respectively. The geometries of the centrosymmetric chloranilic acid molecule in (I) and (II) are compared with the neutral, monoanionic and dianionic forms of chloranilic acid optimized by density functional theory (DFT) at the B3LYP/6–311+G(3df,2p) level. The result implies that the chloranilic acid molecule in (I) is close to the monoanionic state, while that in (II) is between neutral and monoanionic, consistent with the result derived from the H‐atom occupancies.     

4,4′‐Bipyridyl N,N′‐dioxide–3‐hydroxy‐2‐naphthoic acid (1/2)

4,4′‐Bipyridyl N,N′‐dioxide crystallizes with 3‐hydr­oxy‐2‐naphthoic acid to give a centrosymmetric three‐component adduct, C₁₀H₈N₂O₂·2C₁₁H₈O₃, which is engineered into a two‐dimensional layer structure by two kinds of π–π inter­actions. Weak C—H⋯O inter­actions further link the two‐dimensional structure into a three‐dimensional structure.

The structure was refined to an R value of 0.072 for 3382 observed reflections. The four crystallographically independent mol­ecules are designated A, B, C and D. All four oxa­thia­ne rings adopt the chair conformation and the purine bases are in an anti orientation with respect to the sugar moieties. Molecules A and D and mol­ecules C and B are base paired by a single hydrogen bond of the type N—H?N. These base pairs are again hydrogen bonded to their translated pairs in the direction of a cell diagonal.
