Molecules of the title compound, C₂₈H₂₇ClN₄O₄·C₂H₆O, form a C(6) chain via an N—H⋯O hydrogen bond along the c axis by the operation of a c-glide plane, with N⋯O = 2.761 (3) Å and N—H⋯O = 165°. The mol­ecules are further linked by a weak C—H⋯O interaction, with C⋯O = 3.344 (4) Å and C—H⋯O = 150°. Pendant hydrogen-bonded ethanol solvent mol­ecules are attached to the chains by O—H⋯N hydrogen bonds, with O⋯N = 2.904 (3) Å and O—H⋯N = 175°.     

(2S,RS)‐6‐Phenyl‐1‐(p‐tolyl­sulfinyl)­hexa‐3(E),5(E)‐dien‐2‐ol

The mol­ecule of the title compound, C₁₉H₂₀O₂S, corresponds to a chiral sulfinyldienol with two stereogenic centres, viz. the C atom susbtituted by the hydr­oxy group and the sulfinyl S atom. The mol­ecule displays a V‐shape in the solid state. The dihedral angle defined by the least‐squares planes of the aromatic rings is 72.9 (1)°. The packing pattern exhibits the following inter­molecular hydrogen bonds: one O—H⋯O [H⋯O = 1.98 Å, O⋯O = 2.785 (4) Å and O—H⋯O = 166°] and two C—H⋯O [H⋯O = 2.58 and 2.60 Å, C⋯O = 3.527 (5) and 3.347 (5) Å, and C—H⋯O = 164 and 134°].

rac‐1‐Phenyl­ethyl­ammonium carboxy­methyl­phospho­nate(1–): hydrogen‐bonded anion sheets with pendent cations

In the title compound, C₈H₁₂N⁺·C₂H₄O₅P⁻, the anions are linked by two O—H⋯O hydrogen bonds [H⋯O both 1.75 Å, O⋯O = 2.5781 (15) and 2.5834 (15) Å, and O—H⋯O = 169 and 176°] into sheets built from alternating (8) and (32) rings. Each cation is linked to an anion sheet by three N—H⋯O hydrogen bonds [H⋯O = 1.88–2.04 Å, N⋯O = 2.7603 (16)–2.9334 (17) Å and N—H⋯O = 162–166°], such that all the cations pendent from one face of the sheet are of the R configuration, while all those pendent from the opposite face are of the S configuration.     

catena‐Poly­[[(di‐2‐pyridyl­amine)­silver(I)]‐μ‐nicotinato] and catena‐poly­[[(di‐2‐pyridyl­amine)silver(I)]‐μ‐2,6‐di­hydroxy­benzoato]

In catena‐poly­[[(di‐2‐pyridyl­amine‐κ²N,N′)silver(I)]‐μ‐nico­tinato‐κ²N:O], [Ag(C₆H₄NO₂)(C₁₀H₉N₃)]_n, the Ag^I atom is tetracoordinated by two N atoms from the di‐2‐pyridyl­amine (BPA) ligand [Ag—N = 2.3785 (18) and 2.3298 (18) Å] and by one N atom and one carboxyl­ate O atom from nicotinate ligands [Ag—N = 2.2827 (15) Å and Ag—O = 2.3636 (14) Å]. Bridging by nicotinate N and O atoms generates a polymeric chain structure, which extends along [100]. The carboxyl O atom not bonded to the Ag atom takes part in an intrachain C—H⋯O hydrogen bond, further stabilizing the chain. Pairs of chains are linked by N—H⋯O hydrogen bonds to generate ribbons. There are no π–π interactions in this complex. In catena‐poly­[[(di‐2‐pyridyl­amine‐κ²N,N′)silver(I)]‐μ‐2,6‐di­hydroxy­benzoato‐κ²O¹:O²], [Ag(C₇H₅O₄)(C₁₀H₉N₃)]_n, the Ag^I atom has a distorted tetrahedral coordination, with three strong bonds to two pyridine N atoms from the BPA ligand [Ag—N = 2.286 (5) and 2.320 (5) Å] and to one carboxyl­ate O atom from the 2,6‐di­hydroxy­benzoate ligand [Ag—O = 2.222 (4) Å]; the fourth, weaker, Ag‐atom coordination is to one of the phenol O atoms [Ag⋯O = 2.703 (4) Å] of an adjacent moiety, and this interaction generates a polymeric chain along [100]. Pairs of chains are linked about inversion centers by N—H⋯O hydrogen bonds to form ribbons, within which there are π–π interactions. The ribbons are linked about inversion centers by pairs of C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds and additional π–π interactions between inversion‐related pairs of 2,6‐di­hydroxy­benzoate ligands to generate a three‐dimensional network.     

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).     

Tri­phenyl­phosphine oxide–1‐naphthoic acid (1/1)

In the title compound, C₁₈H₁₅OP·C₁₁H₈O₂, co‐crystallization of tri­phenyl­phosphine oxide with 1‐naphthoic acid yields a supramolecular structure held together by one O—H⋯O and three C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds. The O—H⋯O hydrogen bond [O⋯O = 2.592 (2) Å] has little effect on the O=P bond distance.     

2‐[(2‐Hydro­xy‐4‐nitro­phenyl)­amino­methyl­ene]­cyclo­hexa‐3,5‐dien‐1(2H)‐one

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)°.     

Berberine formate–succinic acid (1/1)

The title compound [systematic name: 9,10‐di­methoxy‐2,3‐methyl­ene­dioxy‐5,6‐di­hydro­dibenzo­[a,g]­quinolizinium form­ate–succinic acid (1/1)], C₂₀H₁₈NO₄⁺·CHO₂⁻·C₄H₆O₄, con­tains centrosymmetric pairs of almost planar berberine cations, and hydrogen‐bonded (C₄H₆O₄⋯HCOO⁻)₂ rings of succinic acid with formate anions, bonded by O—H⋯O hydrogen bonds with O⋯O distances of 2.4886 (15) and 2.5652 (16) Å. Pairs of cations and mol­ecules of succinic acid are connected by non‐conventional weak C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds, with C⋯O distances of 3.082 (2) and 3.178 (2) Å.

Molecules of the title compound, C₁₃H₁₆N₄O₂, are linked by one N—H⋯O hydrogen bond [H⋯O = 2.47 Å, N⋯O = 3.326 (2) Å and N—H⋯O = 166°] and one N—H⋯N hydrogen bond [H⋯N = 2.19 Å, N⋯N = 3.063 (2) Å and N—H⋯N = 173°] into sheets containing alternating (20) and (32) rings, both types of which are centrosymmetric.     

Ferrocene compounds. XXXIV. 1′‐(tert‐Butoxycarbonylamino)ferrocene‐1‐carboxylic acid

Heteroannularly substituted ferrocene derivatives can act as model systems for various hydrogen‐bonded assemblies of biomol­ecules formed, for instance, by means of O—H⋯O and N—H⋯O hydrogen bonding. The crystal structure analysis of 1′‐(tert‐butoxy­carbonyl­amino)­ferrocene‐1‐carbox­ylic acid, [Fe(C₁₀H₁₄NO₂)(C₆H₅O₂)] or (C₅H₄COOH)Fe(C₅­H₄NHCOOC(CH₃)₃, reveals two independent mol­ecules within the asymmetric unit, and these are joined into discrete dimers by two types of intermolecular hydrogen bonds, viz. O—H⋯O and N—H⋯O. The –COOH and –NHCOOR groups are archetypes for dimer formation via two eight‐membered rings. The O—H⋯O hydrogen bonds [2.656 (3) and 2.663 (3) Å] form a cyclic carboxylic acid dimer motif. Another eight‐membered ring is formed by N—H⋯O hydrogen bonds [2.827 (3) and 2.854 (3) Å] between the N—H group and an O atom of another carbamoyl moiety. The dimers are assembled in a herring‐bone fashion in the bc plane.     

Hydro­gen bonding in C‐substituted nitro­anilines: a chain of R(12) rings in 2‐methane­sulfonyl‐4‐nitro­aniline

The title compound, C₇H₈N₂O₄S, exhibits a markedly polarized molecular–electronic structure. The mol­ecules are linked into a chain of edge‐fused (12) rings by two N—H⋯Ozdbnd;S hydrogen bonds [H⋯O = 2.10 and 2.21 Å, N⋯O = 2.900 (2) and 2.878 (2) Å, and N—H⋯O = 152 and 133°].     

Intermolecular interactions in N‐(ferrocenyl­methyl)­anthracene‐9‐carbox­amide

The title compound, [Fe(C₅H₅)(C₂₁H₁₆NO)], was synthesized from the coupling reaction of anthracene‐9‐carboxyl­ic acid and ferrocenyl­methyl­amine. The ferrocenyl (Fc) group and the anthracene ring system both lie approximately orthogonal to the amide moiety. An amide–amide interaction (along the a axis) is the principal interaction [N⋯O = 2.910 (2) Å]. A C—H⋯π(arene) interaction [C⋯centroid = 3.573 (2) Å] and a C—H⋯O interaction [C⋯O = 3.275 (3) Å] complete the hydrogen bonding; two short (Fc)C⋯C(anthracene) contacts are also present.     

(−)‐3,7‐Dioxo‐5β‐cholanic acid: dual hydrogen‐bonding modes in a diketonic bile‐acid derivative

The asymmetric unit of the title compound, C₂₄H₃₆O₄, contains three mol­ecules, all differing in their side‐chain conformations and all linked by hydrogen bonding confined entirely within a three‐mol­ecule block. One connection is of the acid‐to‐ketone type [O⋯O = 2.7055 (19) Å and O—H⋯O = 180°] and the other involves carboxyl pairing [O⋯O = 2.6485 (18) and 2.6598 (18) Å, and O—H⋯O = 168 and 174°]. Numerous inter­molecular C—H⋯O close contacts connect neighbouring mol­ecules.     

1,4,7,10‐Tetra­oxacyclo­dodeca­ne–triphenyl­methane­thiol (1/2)

In the centrosymmetric formula unit of the title complex, C₈H₁₆O₄·2C₁₈H₁₆S, the 1,4,7,10‐tetra­oxacyclo­dodecane mol­ecule adopts the biangular [66] conformation, and the triphenyl­methane­thiol mol­ecules are linked to the macrocycle via a long S—H⋯O hydrogen bond [S⋯O = 3.460 (2) Å and S—H⋯O = 161 (2)°]. Attractive inter­actions of phenyl groups in edge‐to‐face conformations combine inversion‐related formula units into chains running along the [111] direction in the crystal structure. Association of the chains into sheets is achieved via C—H⋯π inter­actions.     

A three‐dimensional supramolecular network built with the zigzag chain complex bis(5‐carboxy‐1H‐imidazole‐4‐carboxyl­ato)copper(II)

In the title complex, poly[copper(II)‐di‐μ‐5‐carboxy‐1H‐imidazole‐4‐carboxyl­ato], [Cu(C₅H₃N₂O₄)₂]_n or [Cu(H₂Imda)₂]_n, each imidazole moiety is bonded to the Cu atom via O and N atoms to give a square‐planar coordination [Cu—O = 2.014 (2) and 2.016 (2) Å, and Cu—N = 1.982 (3) and 1.992 (2) Å]. The distorted square‐pyramidal geometry at the Cu atom results from coordination to an adjacent O atom [Cu—O = 2.305 (2) Å], which generates zigzag chains. There is a sixth, weaker, octahedral coordination to the Cu atom from an inversion‐related O atom [Cu—O = 3.090 (2) Å], which links the chains into sheets in the (100) plane. Imidazole moieties in the sheets are linked in the [100] direction by pairs of N—H⋯O and C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds, thus generating a three‐dimensional network.     

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.
