4‐Iodo­anilinium 3‐nitro­phthalate(1–): tripartite sheets built from O—H...O and N—H...O hydrogen bonds

In the title compound, 4‐iodoanilinium 2‐carboxy‐6‐nitrobenzoate, C₆H₇IN⁺·C₈H₄NO₆⁻, the anions are linked by an O—H...O hydrogen bond [H...O = 1.78 Å, O...O = 2.614 (3) Å and O—H...O = 171°] into C(7) chains, and these chains are linked by two two‐centre N—H...O hydrogen bonds [H...O = 1.86 and 1.92 Å, N...O = 2.700 (3) and 2.786 (3) Å, and N—H...O = 153 and 158°] and one three‐centre N—H...(O)₂ hydrogen bond [H...O = 2.02 and 2.41 Å, N...O = 2.896 (3) and 2.789 (3) Å, N—H...O = 162 and 105°, and O...H...O = 92°], thus forming sheets con­taining R(6), R(8), R(13) and R(18) rings.     

6‐Amino‐3‐methyl‐5‐nitro­so­pyrimi­dine‐2,4(1H,3H)‐dione forms a three‐dimensional hydrogen‐bonded framework structure

Molecules of the title compound, C₅H₆N₄O₃, are linked into a single three‐dimensional framework by a two‐centre N—H⃛O hydrogen bond [H⃛O = 1.92 Å, N⃛O = 2.785 (2) Å and N—H⃛O = 168°], a two‐centre N—H⃛H hydrogen bond [H⃛N = 2.19 Å, N⃛N = 3.017 (2) Å and N—H⃛N = 157°] and the intermolecular component of an effectively planar three‐centre N—H⃛(O)₂ hydrogen bond [H⃛O = 2.03 and 2.31 Å, N⃛O = 2.645 (2) and 2.957 (2) Å, N—H⃛O = 126 and 130°, and O⃛H⃛O = 101°].     

Crystal structures of the pyrazinamide–p‐aminobenzoic acid (1/1) cocrystal and the transamidation reaction product 4‐(pyrazine‐2‐carboxamido)benzoic acid in the molten state

The synthesis of pharmaceutical cocrystals is a strategy to enhance the performance of active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) without affecting their therapeutic efficiency. The 1:1 pharmaceutical cocrystal of the antituberculosis drug pyrazinamide (PZA) and the cocrystal former p‐aminobenzoic acid (p‐ABA), C₇H₇NO₂·C₅H₅N₃O, (1), was synthesized successfully and characterized by relevant solid‐state characterization methods. The cocrystal crystallizes in the monoclinic space group P2₁/n containing one molecule of each component. Both molecules associate via intermolecular O—H...O and N—H...O hydrogen bonds [O...O = 2.6102 (15) Å and O—H...O = 168.3 (19)°; N...O = 2.9259 (18) Å and N—H...O = 167.7 (16)°] to generate a dimeric acid–amide synthon. Neighbouring dimers are linked centrosymmetrically through N—H...O interactions [N...O = 3.1201 (18) Å and N—H...O = 136.9 (14)°] to form a tetrameric assembly supplemented by C—H...N interactions [C...N = 3.5277 (19) Å and C—H...N = 147°]. Linking of these tetrameric assemblies through N—H...O [N...O = 3.3026 (19) Å and N—H...O = 143.1 (17)°], N—H...N [N...N = 3.221 (2) Å and N—H...N = 177.9 (17)°] and C—H...O [C...O = 3.5354 (18) Å and C—H...O = 152°] interactions creates the two‐dimensional packing. Recrystallization of the cocrystals from the molten state revealed the formation of 4‐(pyrazine‐2‐carboxamido)benzoic acid, C₁₂H₉N₃O₃, (2), through a transamidation reaction between PZA and p‐ABA. Carboxamide (2) crystallizes in the triclinic space group P with one molecule in the asymmetric unit. Molecules of (2) form a centrosymmetric dimeric homosynthon through an acid–acid O—H...O hydrogen bond [O...O = 2.666 (3) Å and O—H...O = 178 (4)°]. Neighbouring assemblies are connected centrosymmetrically via a C—H...N interaction [C...N = 3.365 (3) Å and C—H...N = 142°] engaging the pyrazine groups to generate a linear chain. Adjacent chains are connected loosely via C—H...O interactions [C...O = 3.212 (3) Å and C—H...O = 149°] to generate a two‐dimensional sheet structure. Closely associated two‐dimensional sheets in both compounds are stacked via aromatic π‐stacking interactions engaging the pyrazine and benzene rings to create a three‐dimensional multi‐stack structure.     

The 7‐bromo derivative of 2‐amino‐2′‐deoxytubercidin fluorinated at the sugar moiety

The title compound, 2,4‐diamino‐5‐bromo‐7‐(2‐deoxy‐2‐fluoro‐β‐d ‐arabinofuranosyl)‐7H‐pyrrolo[2,3‐d]pyrimidine, C₁₁H₁₃BrFN₅O₃, shows two conformations of the exocyclic C4′—C5′ bond, with the torsion angle γ (O5′—C5′—C4′—C3′) being 170.1 (3)° for conformer 1 (occupancy 0.69) and 60.7 (7)° for conformer 2 (occupancy 0.31). The N‐glycosylic bond exhibits an anti conformation, with χ = −114.8 (4)°. The sugar pucker is N‐type (C3′‐endo; ³T₄), with P = 23.3 (4)° and τ_m = 36.5 (2)°. The compound forms a three‐dimensional network that is stabilized by several intermolecular hydrogen bonds (N—H...O, O—H...N and N—H...Br).     

N‐(4‐Nitrobenzoyl)‐N′‐phenylhydrazine: a three‐dimensional hydrogen‐bonded framework

In the title compound (systematic name: N‐anilino‐4‐nitrobenzamide), C₁₃H₁₁N₃O₃, the molecules are linked into a complex three‐dimensional framework structure by a combination of two‐centre N—H...O and C—H...O hydrogen bonds and a three‐centre N—H...(O,N) hydrogen bond.     

A three‐dimensional hydrogen‐bonded framework in 2‐amino‐6‐(N‐methylanilino)pyrimidin‐4(3H)‐one and a ribbon of fused hydrogen‐bonded rings in 2‐amino‐6‐(N‐methylanilino)‐5‐nitropyrimidin‐4(3H)‐one

The molecular dimensions of both 2‐amino‐6‐(N‐methylanilino)pyrimidin‐4(3H)‐one, C₁₁H₁₂N₄O, (I), and 2‐amino‐6‐(N‐methylanilino)‐5‐nitropyrimidin‐4(3H)‐one, C₁₁H₁₁N₅O₃, (II), are consistent with considerable polarization of the molecular–electronic structures. The molecules of (I) are linked into a three‐dimensional framework by a combination of one N—H...N hydrogen bond, two independent N—H...O hydrogen bonds and one C—H...π(arene) hydrogen bond. The molecules of (II) are linked into ribbons containing three types of edge‐fused ring by the combination of two independent three‐centre N—H...(O)₂ hydrogen bonds.     

(E)‐N′‐(4‐Chlorobenzylidene)‐, (E)‐N′‐(4‐bromobenzylidene)‐ and (E)‐N′‐[4‐(diethylamino)benzylidene]‐ derivatives of 4‐hydroxybenzohydrazide

The 4‐chloro‐ [C₁₄H₁₁ClN₂O₂, (I)], 4‐bromo‐ [C₁₄H₁₀BrN₂O₂, (II)] and 4‐diethylamino‐ [C₁₈H₂₁N₃O₂, (III)] derivatives of benzylidene‐4‐hydroxybenzohydrazide, all crystallize in the same space group (P2₁/c), (I) and (II) also being isomorphous. In all three compounds, the conformation about the C=N bond is E. The molecules of (I) and (II) are relatively planar, with dihedral angles between the two benzene rings of 5.75 (12) and 9.81 (17)°, respectively. In (III), however, the same angle is 77.27 (9)°. In the crystal structures of (I) and (II), two‐dimensional slab‐like networks extending in the a and c directions are formed via N—H...O and O—H...O hydrogen bonds. The molecules stack head‐to‐tail viaπ–π interactions involving the aromatic rings [centroid–centroid distance = 3.7622 (14) Å in (I) and 3.8021 (19) Å in (II)]. In (III), undulating two‐dimensional networks extending in the b and c directions are formed via N—H...O and O—H...O hydrogen bonds. The molecules stack head‐to‐head viaπ–π interactions involving inversion‐related benzene rings [centroid–centroid distances = 3.6977 (12) and 3.8368 (11) Å].     

(6‐Oxido‐2‐oxo‐1,2‐dihydropyrimidine‐5‐carboxylato‐κ2O5,O6)bis[2‐(2‐pyridyl)‐1H‐benzimidazole‐κ2N2,N3]manganese(II) monohydrate

In the title compound, [Mn(C₅H₂N₂O₄)(C₁₂H₉N₃)₂]·H₂O, the Mn^II centre is surrounded by three bidentate chelating ligands, namely, one 6‐oxido‐2‐oxo‐1,2‐dihydropyrimidine‐5‐carboxylate (or uracil‐5‐carboxylate, Huca²⁻) ligand [Mn—O = 2.136 (2) and 2.156 (3) Å] and two 2‐(2‐pyridyl)‐1H‐benzimidazole (Hpybim) ligands [Mn—N = 2.213 (3)–2.331 (3) Å], and it displays a severely distorted octahedral geometry, with cis angles ranging from 73.05 (10) to 105.77 (10)°. Intermolecular N—H...O hydrogen bonds both between the Hpybim and the Huca²⁻ ligands and between the Huca²⁻ ligands link the molecules into infinite chains. The lattice water molecule acts as a hydrogen‐bond donor to form double O...H—O—H...O hydrogen bonds with the Huca²⁻ O atoms, crosslinking the chains to afford an infinite two‐dimensional sheet; a third hydrogen bond (N—H...O) formed by the water molecule as a hydrogen‐bond acceptor and a Hpybim N atom further links these sheets to yield a three‐dimensional supramolecular framework. Possible partial π–π stacking interactions involving the Hpybim rings are also observed in the crystal structure.     

Assembling an isomer grid: the isomorphous 4‐, 3‐ and 2‐fluoro‐N′‐(4‐pyridyl)benzamides

The three title isomers, 4‐, (I), 3‐, (II), and 2‐fluoro‐N′‐(4‐pyridyl)benzamide, (III), all C₁₂H₉FN₂O, crystallize in the P2₁/c space group (No. 14) with similar unit‐cell parameters and are isomorphous and isostructural at the primary hydrogen‐bonding level. An intramolecular C—H...O=C interaction is present in all three isomers [C...O = 2.8681 (17)–2.884 (2) Å and C—H...O117–118°], with an additional N—H...F [N...F = 2.7544 (15) Å] interaction in (III). Intermolecular amide–pyridine N—H...N hydrogen bonds link molecules into one‐dimensional zigzag chains [graph set C(6)] along the [010] direction as the primary hydrogen bond [N...N = 3.022 (2), 3.049 (2) and 3.0213 (17) Å]. These are augmented in (I) by C—H...π(arene) and cyclic C—F...π(arene) contacts about inversion centres, in (II) by C—F...F—C interactions [C...F = 3.037 (2) Å] and weaker C—H...π(arene)/C—H...F contacts, and in (III) by C—H...π(arene) and C=O...O=C interactions, linking the alternating chains into two‐dimensional sheets. Typical amide N—H...O=C hydrogen bonds [as C(4) chains] are not present [N...O = 3.438 (2) Å in (I), 3.562 (2) Å in (II) and 3.7854 (16) Å in (III)]; the C=O group is effectively shielded and only participates in weaker interactions/contacts. This series is unusual as the three isomers are isomorphous (having similar unit‐cell parameters, packing and alignment), but they differ in their interactions and contacts at the secondary level.     

S‐(4‐Nitrophenyl) 4‐nitrobenzenethiosulfonate

The title compound, C₁₂H₈N₂O₆S₂, (I), is a positional isomer of S‐(2‐nitrophenyl) 2‐nitrobenzenethiosulfonate [Glidewell, Low & Wardell (2000). Acta Cryst. B 56 , 893–905], (II). The most obvious difference between the two isomers is the rotation of the nitro groups with respect to the planes of the adjacent aryl rings. In (I), the nitro groups are only slightly rotated out of the plane of the adjacent aryl ring [2.4 (6) and 6.7 (7)°], while in (II) the nitro groups are rotated by between 37 and 52°, in every case associated with S—S—C—C torsion angles close to 90°. Other important differences between the isomers are the C—S—S(O₂)—C torsion angle [78.39 (2)° for (I) and 69.8 (3)° for (II) (mean)] and the dihedral angles between the aromatic rings [12.3 (3)° for (I) and 28.6 (3)° for (II) (mean)]. There are two types of C—H...O hydrogen bond in the structure [C...O = 3.262 (7) Å and C—H...O = 144°; C...O = 3.447 (7) Å and C—H...O = 166°] and these link the molecules into a two‐dimensional framework. The hydrogen‐bond‐acceptor properties differ between the two isomers.     

Ammonium N‐(6‐amino‐3,4‐di­hydro‐3‐methyl‐5‐nitro­so‐4‐oxopyrimidin‐2‐yl)­glycinate monohydrate forms hydrogen‐bonded bilayers

In the title compound, NH₄⁺·C₇H₈N₅O₄⁻·H₂O, the independent components are linked into bilayers by an extensive series of two‐centre N—H⃛O hydrogen bonds [H⃛O = 1.85–1.96 Å, N⃛O = 2.776 (2)–2.840 (2) Å and N—H⃛O = 149–172°], and by asymmetric three‐centre N—H⃛(O)₂, O—H⃛(N,O) and O—H⃛(O)₂ hydrogen bonds.     

2‐(4‐Bromophenyl)‐1,2‐dihydropyrimido[1,2‐a]benzimidazol‐4(3H)‐one and 4‐(4‐methylphenyl)‐3,4‐dihydropyrimido[1,2‐a]benzimidazol‐2(1H)‐one form hydrogen‐bonded base‐paired dimers

The title compounds, 2‐(4‐bromo­phenyl)‐1,2‐di­hydro­pyrimido­[1,2‐a]­benzimidazol‐4‐(3H)‐one, C₁₆H₁₂Br­N₃O, (IVa), and 4‐(4‐methylphenyl)‐3,4‐dihydropyrimido[1,2‐a]benzimidazol‐2‐(1H)‐one, C₁₇H₁₅N₃O, (Vb), both form R(8) centrosymmetric dimers via N—H?N hydrogen bonds. The N?N distance is 2.943 (3) Å for (IVa) and 2.8481 (16) Å for (Vb), with the corresponding N—H?N angles being 129 and 167°, respectively. However, in other respects, the supra­molecular structures of the two compounds differ. Both compounds contain different C—H?π interactions, in which the C—H?π(centroid) distances are 2.59 and 2.47 Å for (IVa) and (Vb), respectively (the latter being a short distance), with C—H?π(centroid) angles of 158 and 159°, respectively. The supramolecular structures also differ, with a short Br?O distance of 3.117 (2) Å in bromo derivative (IVa), and a C—H?O interaction with a C?O distance of 3.2561 (19) Å and a C—H?O angle of 127° in tolyl system (Vb). The di­hydro­pyrimido part of (Vb) is disordered, with a ratio of the major and minor components of 0.9:0.1. The disorder consists of two non‐interchangeable envelope conformers, each with an equatorial tolyl group and an axial methine H atom.     

[2‐(2‐Pyridyl)‐1H‐benzimidazole‐κ2N2,N3]bis(p‐toluato‐κ2O,O′)manganese(II)

In the title compound, [Mn(C₈H₇O₂)₂(C₁₂H₉N₃)], the manganese(II) centre is surrounded by three bidentate chelating ligands, namely, one 2‐(2‐pyridyl)benzimidazole ligand [Mn—N = 2.1954 (13) and 2.2595 (14) Å] and two p‐toluate ligands [Mn—O = 2.1559 (13)–2.2748 (14) Å]. It displays a severely distorted octahedral geometry, with cis angles ranging from 58.87 (4) to 106.49 (5)°. Intermolecular C—H...O hydrogen bonds between the p‐toluate ligands link the molecules into infinite chains, and every two neighbouring chains are further coupled by N—H...O and C—H...O hydrogen bonds between the 2‐(2‐pyridyl)benzimidazole and p‐toluate ligands, leading to an infinite ribbon‐like double‐chain packing mode. The complete solid‐state structure can be described as a three‐dimensional supramolecular framework, stabilized by these intermolecular hydrogen‐bonding interactions and possible C—H...π interactions, as well as stacking interactions involving the 2‐(2‐pyridyl)benzimidazole ligands.     

Hydrogen‐bonded dimers in 3‐amino‐4‐anilino‐1H‐isochromen‐1‐one and a hydrogen‐bonded sheet in 3‐amino‐4‐[methyl(phenyl)amino]‐1H‐isochromen‐1‐one

The molecules of 3‐amino‐4‐anilino‐1H‐isochromen‐1‐one, C₁₅H₁₂N₂O₂, (I), and 3‐amino‐4‐[methyl(phenyl)amino]‐1H‐isochromen‐1‐one, C₁₆H₁₄N₂O₂, (II), adopt very similar conformations, with the substituted amino group PhNR, where R = H in (I) and R = Me in (II), almost orthogonal to the adjacent heterocyclic ring. The molecules of (I) are linked into cyclic centrosymmetric dimers by pairs of N—H...O hydrogen bonds, while those of (II) are linked into complex sheets by a combination of one three‐centre N—H...(O)₂ hydrogen bond, one two‐centre C—H...O hydrogen bond and two C—H...π(arene) hydrogen bonds.     

Helical supramolecular assembly of N2,N2′‐bis[3‐(morpholin‐4‐yl)propyl]‐N1,N1′‐(1,2‐phenylene)dioxalamide dimethyl sulfoxide monosolvate

In the title compound, C₂₄H₃₆N₆O₆·C₂H₆OS, the carbonyl groups are in an antiperiplanar conformation, with O=C—C=O torsion angles of 178.59 (15) and −172.08 (16)°. An intramolecular hydrogen‐bonding pattern is depicted by four N—H...O interactions, which form two adjacent S(5)S(5) motifs, and an N—H...N interaction, which forms an S(6) ring motif. Intermolecular N—H...O hydrogen bonding and C—H...O soft interactions allow the formation of a meso‐helix. The title compound is the first example of a helical 1,2‐phenylenedioxalamide. The oxalamide traps one molecule of dimethyl sulfoxide through N—H...O hydrogen bonding. C—H...O soft interactions give rise to the two‐dimensional structure.     

1‐Methyl‐4‐nitraminopyridinium nitrate and 4‐nitraminopyridinium methanesulfonate

In the title compounds, C₆H₈N₃O₂⁺·NO₃^? and C₅­H₆­N₃­O₂⁺·­CH₃SO₃^?, respectively, the cations are almost planar; the twist of the nitr­amino group about the C—N and N—N bonds does not exceed 10°. The deviations from coplanarity are accounted for by intermolecular N—H?O interactions. The coplanarity of the NHNO₂ group and the phenyl ring leads to the deformation of the nitr­amino group. The C—N—N angle and one C—C—N angle at the junction of the phenyl ring and the nitr­amino group are increased from 120° by ca 6°, whereas the other junction C—C—N angle is decreased by ca 5°. Within the nitro group, the O—N—O angle is increased by ca 5° and one O—N—N angle is decreased by ca 5°, whereas the other O—N—N angle remains almost unchanged. The cations are connected to the anions by relatively strong N—H?O hydrogen bonds [shortest H?O separations 1.77 (2)–1.81 (3) Å] and much weaker C—H?O hydrogen bonds [H?O separations 2.30 (2)–2.63 (3) Å].     

Three sterically hindered 6‐amino‐5‐cyano‐2‐methyl‐4‐(1‐naphthyl)‐4H‐pyran‐3‐carboxylate derivatives

In the title compounds, 2‐methoxyethyl 6‐amino‐5‐cyano‐2‐methyl‐4‐(1‐naphthyl)‐4H‐pyran‐3‐carboxylate, C₂₁H₂₀N₂O₄, (II), isopropyl 6‐amino‐5‐cyano‐2‐methyl‐4‐(1‐naphthyl)‐4H‐pyran‐3‐carboxylate, C₂₁H₂₀N₂O₃, (III), and ethyl 6‐amino‐5‐cyano‐2‐methyl‐4‐(1‐naphthyl)‐4H‐pyran‐3‐carboxylate, C₂₀H₁₈N₂O₃, (IV), the heterocyclic pyran ring adopts a flattened boat conformation. In (II) and (III), the carbonyl group and a double bond of the heterocyclic ring are mutually anti, but in (IV) they are mutually syn. The ester O atoms in (II) and (III) and the carbonyl O atom in (IV) participate in intramolecular C—H...O contacts to form six‐membered rings. The dihedral angles between the naphthalene substituent and the closest four atoms of the heterocyclic ring are 73.3 (1), 71.0 (1) and 74.3 (1)° for (II)–(IV), respectively. In all three structures, only one H atom of the NH₂ group takes part in N—H...O [in (II) and (III)] or N—H...N [in (IV)] intermolecular hydrogen bonds, and chains [in (II) and (III)] or dimers [in (IV)] are formed. In (II), weak intermolecular C—H...O and C—H...N hydrogen bonds, and in (III) intermolecular C—H...O hydrogen bonds link the chains into ladders along the a axis.     

4‐Amino‐7‐(2‐de­oxy‐2‐fluoro‐β‐d‐arabinofuranos­yl)‐5‐fluoro‐7H‐pyrrolo[2,3‐d]pyrimidine: a bis‐fluorinated analogue of 2′‐deoxy­tubercidin

The title compound, C₁₁H₁₂F₂N₄O₃, exhibits an anti glycosylic bond conformation, with a torsion angle χ = −117.8 (2)°. The sugar pucker is N‐type (C4′‐exo, between ³T₄ and E₄, with P = 45.3° and τ_m = 41.3°). The conformation around the exocyclic C—C bond is −ap (trans), with a torsion angle γ = −177.46 (15)°. The nucleobases are stacked head‐to‐head. The crystal structure is characterized by a three‐dimensional hydrogen‐bond network involving N—H⋯O, O—H⋯O and O—H⋯N hydrogen bonds.     

Diaquabis(4‐fluorobenzoato‐κO)bis(nicotinamide‐κN)cobalt(II)

The title compound, [Co(C₇H₄FO₂)₂(C₆H₆N₂O)₂(H₂O)₂], is a three‐dimensional hydrogen‐bonded supramolecular complex. The Co^II ion resides on a centre of symmetry and is in an octahedral coordination environment comprising two pyridyl N atoms, two carboxylate O atoms and two O atoms from water molecules. Intermolecular N—H...O and O—H...O hydrogen bonds produce R₃²(6), R₂²(12) and R₂²(16) rings, which lead to two‐dimensional chains. An extensive three‐dimensional network of C—H...F, N—H...O and O—H...O hydrogen bonds and π–π interactions are responsible for crystal stabilization.     

Self‐inclusion structure of 5,11,17,23‐tetrakis(azidomethyl)‐25,26,27,28‐tetrahydroxycalix[4]arene,and 5,11,17,23‐tetra‐tert‐butyl‐25,27‐bis(chloroacetoxy)‐26,28‐bis(2‐pyridylmethoxy)calix[4]arene

In the structures of the two title calix[4]arene derivatives, C₃₂H₂₈N₁₂O₄, (I), and C₆₀H₆₈Cl₂N₂O₆, (II), compound (I) adopts an open‐cone conformation in which there are four intramolecular O—H...O hydrogen bonds, while compound (II) adopts a distorted chalice conformation where the two pendant pyridyl rings, one of which is disordered, are almost mutually perpendicular, with an interplanar angle of 79.2 (2) or 71.4 (2)°. The dihedral angles between the virtual plane defined by the four bridging methylene C atoms and the phenol rings are 120.27 (7), 124.03 (6), 120.14 (8) and 128.25 (7)° for (I), and 95.99 (8), 135.93 (7), 97.21 (8) and 126.10 (8)° for (II). In the supramolecular structure of (I), pairs of molecules associate by self‐inclusion, where one azide group of the molecule is inserted into the cavity of the inversion‐related molecule, and the association is stabilized by weak intermolecular C—H...N hydrogen bonds and π(N₃)–π(aromatic) interactions. The molecular pairs are linked into a two‐dimensional network by a combination of weak intermolecular C—H...N contacts. Each network is further connected to its neighbor to produce a three‐dimensional framework via intersheet C—H...N hydrogen bonds. In the crystal packing of (II), the molecular components are linked into an infinite chain by intermolecular C—H...O hydrogen bonds. This study demonstrates the ability of calix[4]arene derivatives to form self‐inclusion structures.
