The title compound, C₁₃H₁₀N₂O₄, adopts the keto–amine tautomeric form and displays an intramolecular N—H⋯O [N⋯O = 2.579 (2) Å] and three intermolecular O—H⋯O [O⋯O = 2.561 (2) Å] and C—H⋯O [C⋯O = 3.274 (2) and 3.318 (2) Å] hydrogen bonds. The keto–amine structure is favoured by through‐mol­ecule conjugation between the hydroxy O atom and imine N atom. The dihedral angle between the planes of the two aromatic rings is 10.79 (4)°.     

4‐[(3‐Chloro­phenyl)­diazenyl]‐2‐{[tris(hydroxy­methyl)­methyl]amino­methyl­ene}cyclo­hexa‐3,5‐dien‐1(2H)‐one

The title compound, C₁₇H₁₈ClN₃O₄, adopts the keto–amine tautomeric form and displays an intramolecular N—H⋯O hydrogen bond [N⋯O = 2.639 (2) Å]. The configuration around the azo N=N double bond is trans, and the dihedral angle between the planes of the two aromatic rings is 20.5 (2)°. The mol­ecules are linked by O—H⋯O hydrogen bonds to form a three‐dimensional network.

The title compound, C₁₉H₂₃N₃O₅, adopts the keto–amine tautomeric form with the hydr­oxy H atom located on the N atom, where it is involved in a strong intra­molecular N—H⋯O hydrogen bond. The compound exhibits trans geometry with respect to the azo N=N double bond, with a dihedral angle between the two benzene rings of 38.03 (6)°. The packing of the mol­ecules in the crystal structure is determined by O—H⋯O and C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds. A comparison with closely related compounds is given.     

4‐[(2‐Chloro­phenyl)­diazenyl]‐6‐methoxy‐2‐{[tris­(hydroxy­methyl)­methyl]­amino­methyl­ene}cyclo­hexa‐3,5‐dien‐1(2H)‐one

The structure of the title compound, C₁₈H₂₀ClN₃O₅, displays the characteristic features of azo­benzene derivatives. Intramolecular N—H⋯O, weak intramolecular C—H⋯O, and intermolecular O—H⋯O and C—H⋯O interactions influence the conformation of the mol­ecules and the crystal packing.

The azo­benzene moiety of the mol­ecule has a trans configuration. The mol­ecule is not planar, and the dihedral angle between the two phenyl rings is 35.6 (2)°.     

(2‐Hydro­xy‐5‐methyl­phenyl)­di­phenyl­phosphine oxide

Pairs of individual mol­ecules of the title compound, C₁₉H₁₇O₂P, (I), containing tetrahedrally coordinated P atoms are connected across crystallographic inversion centres via complementary O—H?O=P hydrogen bonds.     

2‐Hydro­xy‐5‐[(E)‐(4‐methoxy­phenyl)­diazenyl]­benzoic acid

The title compound, C₁₄H₁₂N₂O₄, shows an E conformation about the diazenyl N atoms. The crystal structure features layers of mol­ecules with the primary connection between the layers afforded by carboxyl­ic acid dimer motifs; no evidence for extensive π–π stacking between the layers was found.     

2‐[Benzoyl­(hydroxy­imino)­methyl­amino]­benzoic acid

The structure of the title compound, C₁₅H₁₂N₂O₄, consists of a polymeric arrangement, around inversion centres, of mol­ecules linked through O—H⋯N and O—H⋯O hydrogen bonds; there are also intramolecular hydrogen bonds.

5‐(2‐Chloro­phenyl­diazenyl)­salicyl­aldehyde and 4‐(2‐chloro­phenyl­diazenyl)‐2‐{[tris­(hydroxy­methyl)­methyl]­amino­methyl­ene}cyclo­hexa‐3,5‐dien‐1(2H)‐one

The mol­ecule of the former title compound, C₁₃H₉ClN₂O₂, (I), is nearly planar, with an intramolecular O⋯O hydrogen bond of 2.692 (2) Å. The latter title compound, C₁₇H₁₈ClN₃O₄, (II), exists in the keto–amine tautomeric form, with a strong intramolecular hydrogen bond of 2.640 (2) Å between the O and N atoms, the H atom being bonded to the N atom. The azo­benzene moieties of both mol­ecules have trans configurations, and the dihedral angle between the planes of the two aromatic rings is 4.1 (1)° in (I) and 9.9 (1)° in (II). The N—H⋯O hydrogen‐bonded rings are almost planar and coupled with the cyclo­hexa­diene rings in (II).     

1‐(2‐{4‐[6‐Hydro­xy‐2‐(4‐hydroxy­phenyl)­benzo­[b]­thiol‐3‐yl­carbonyl]­phenoxy}ethyl)­piperidinium chloride

The title compound, raloxifene hydro­chloride, C₂₈H₂₈NO₄S⁺·Cl^?, belongs to the benzo­thio­phene class of antiosteoporotic drugs. In the molecular cation, the 2‐phenol ring sustains a dihedral angle of 45.3 (1)° relative to the benzo­[b]­thio­phene system. The benzo­[b]­thio­phene and phenyl ring planes are twisted with respect to the carbonyl plane, with the smallest twist component occurring between the phenyl and carbonyl planes. The N atom bears the positive charge in the molecular cation and the piperidine ring adopts an almost perfect chair conformation. The Cl^? anion is involved in the formation of N—H?Cl and O—H?Cl intermolecular hydrogen bonds, which lead to the formation of a layer of molecular cations.     

3‐[(2‐Oxo‐1‐naphthylidene)methyl­amino]­benzoic acid

The title compound, C₁₈H₁₃NO₃, exists as a keto­amino tautomer implying a fairly short N—H?O intramolecular hydrogen bond between the 2‐naphthalenone and amino moieties [N?O 2.531 (3) Å] which is enhanced by the π‐electron delocalization effect. The naphthald­imine and 3‐carboxy­phenyl fragments are inclined at an angle of 4.41 (7)°, so the mol­ecule is almost planar. The mol­ecules are connected by intermolecular O—H?O hydrogen bonds between the carboxy and keto O atoms, forming infinite chains around the twofold screw axes parallel to b .     

[2‐(Anilino­methyl)­phenyl]­di­phenyl­phosphine and {2‐[(N‐methyl­anilino)­methyl]­phenyl}di­phenyl­phosphine

The title compounds, Ph₂PCH₂N(H)Ph or C₂₅H₂₂NP and Ph₂PCH₂N(CH₃)Ph or C₂₆H₂₄NP, respectively, are isomorphous, with calculated theoretical Tolman angles of 174 and 182°.     

The new chiral ligand 3‐ethoxy‐4‐[(1R,2S)‐(2‐hydroxy‐1,2‐di­phenyl­ethyl)­amino]‐3‐cyclo­butene‐1,2‐dione

The asymmetric unit of C₂₀H₁₉NO₄ contains two mol­ecules with slightly different conformations. In the crystal, the mol­ecules are linked by O—H?O and N—H?O hydrogen bonds [O?O 2.764 (3) and 2.811 (3) Å; N?O 2.907 (3) and 2.968 (3) Å] to form a two‐dimensional network.     

(E)‐5‐[(4‐Nitro­phenyl­hydrazono)­phenyl­acetyl]‐3‐phenyl­isoxazole

The title compound, C₂₃H₁₆N₄O₄, can be considered as consisting of two connected fragments: a nitro­phenyl­hydrazone moiety, which assumes an E configuration, and an isoxazole moiety. In this latter fragment, the weak π‐electron delocalization shortens the carbonyl–isoxazole O?O distance [2.643 (2) Å] to less than the van der Waals radii sum.     

1‐[(4‐Chloro­benzoyl)­methyl]‐4‐(N,N‐di­methyl­amino)­pyridinium bromide sesquihydrate and 1‐[(4‐bromo­benzoyl)­methyl]‐4‐(N,N‐di­methyl­amino)­pyridinium bromide sesquihydrate

The title compounds, C₁₅H₁₆ClN₂O⁺·Br⁻·1.5H₂O and C₁₅H₁₆BrN₂O⁺·Br⁻·1.5H₂O, are isomorphous. The benzene ring is oriented nearly normal to the pyridine ring in both compounds. The molecular packing is mainly influenced by intermolecular O—H⋯O and O—H⋯Br interactions, as well as weak intramolecular C—H⋯O interactions. The H₂OBr⁻ units form an extended water–bromide chain, with a bridging water mol­ecule on a twofold axis.     

2‐{[Bis(2‐pyridylmethyl)amino]­methyl}‐6‐[(2‐hydroxy­anilino)­methyl]‐4‐methyl­phenol: a novel binucleating asymmetric ligand as a precursor to synthetic models for metalloenzymes

The title compound (H₂L), C₂₇H₂₈N₄O₂, is an asymmetric binucleating ligand with well defined soft (N₃O‐donor) and hard (NO₂‐donor) sides. H₂L was designed as a ligand for the preparation of heterodinuclear mixed‐valence M^III/M′^II complexes which are models for heterobimetallic active sites of enzymes, principally calcineurin. The mol­ecular structure of H₂L shows a spatial pre‐organization of the donor groups for coordination. This conformation is stabilized by bifurcated intra‐ and inter­molecular O—H⋯N hydrogen bonds involving both phenol groups. The inter­molecular hydrogen bonds link mol­ecules of H₂L into chains running parallel to the crystallographic c axis.     

Ethyl N‐[2‐(hydroxy­acetyl)­phenyl]­carbamate,ethyl N‐[2‐(hydroxy­acetyl)‐4‐iodo­phenyl]­carbamate and ethyl N‐[2‐(hydroxy­acetyl)‐4‐methyl­phenyl]­carbamate

In ethyl N‐[2‐(hydroxy­acetyl)phenyl]carbamate, C₁₁H₁₃NO₄, all of the non‐H atoms lie on a mirror plane in the space group Pnma; the mol­ecules are linked into simple chains by a single C—H⋯O hydrogen bond. The mol­ecules of ethyl N‐[2‐(hydroxy­acetyl)‐4‐iodo­phenyl]carbamate, C₁₁H₁₂INO₄, are linked into sheets by a combination of O—H⋯I and C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds and a dipolar I⋯O contact. Ethyl N‐­[2‐(hydroxy­acetyl)‐4‐methyl­phenyl]carbamate, C₁₂H₁₅NO₄, crystallizes with Z′ = 2 in the space group P; pairs of mol­ecules are weakly linked by an O—H⋯O hydrogen bond and these aggregates are linked into chains by two independent aromatic π–π stacking inter­actions.     

3‐Methoxy‐5‐(4‐methyl­phenyl­diazenyl)­salicyl­aldehyde and 3‐methoxy‐5‐(2‐methyl­phenyl­diazenyl)­salicyl­aldehyde

The two title mol­ecules, both C₁₅H₁₄N₂O₃, are roughly planar and display a trans conformation with respect to the –N=N– double bond, as found for other diazene derivatives. In both compounds, there are intramolecular O—H⋯O hydrogen bonds and the crystal packing is governed by weak intermolecular C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds and π–π stacking.     

{2,6‐Bis­[(di­methyl­amino)­methyl]­phenyl‐N2,C1,N6}di­phenyl­tin(II) bromide monohydrate

In the title compound, [Sn(C₆H₅)₂(C₁₂H₁₉N₂)]Br·H₂O, the Sn^IV atom lies on a twofold axis and is coordinated by a C and two N atoms from the 2,6‐bis­[(di­methyl­amino)­methyl]­phenyl ligand in a tridentate fashion and by two phenyl groups. The resulting geometry is intermediate between square pyramidal and trigonal bipyramidal, with three C atoms in equatorial and the two N atoms in axial positions. The main deformation from ideal trigonal‐bipyramidal geometry is seen for the N—Sn—N angle [152.18 (7)°]. The Br^? anion and the water solvate mol­ecule are on an inversion centre and twofold axis, respectively. They form an infinite chain of Br?H—O—H?Br hydrogen bonds [Br?O 3.529 (2) Å] without contributing to the primary coordination sphere of the Sn atom.     

2‐[(4‐Hydroxyphenyl)iminomethyl]­thiophene

The molecular structure of the title compound, C₁₁H₉NOS, has three planar moieties, two of which are rings, namely the hydroxy­phenyl and the thio­phene, with an angle of 20.76 (10)° between them. The crystal structure is stabilized by an O—H?N hydrogen bond and by C—H?O intermolecular interactions. The C?O intermolecular contact distance is 3.443 (2) Å.     

2‐Hydro­xy‐1‐naphth­aldehyde 2‐methyl­thio­semicarbazone

The potentially tridentate O,N,S‐donor ligand, 2‐hydroxy‐1‐naphth­aldehyde 2‐methyl­thio­semicarbazone, C₁₃H₁₃N₃OS, has been structurally characterized and the mol­ecule is found to exhibit a distorted planar structure with the thio­semicarbazide moiety being twisted slightly out of the plane defined by the naphthyl ring.
