Abstract  

Two imidazolyl derived complexes [N,N′-butylenebis(imidazole): (fumaric acid)₂ (1), and N,N′-butylenebis(imidazole): (2,4,6-trinitrophenol)₂ (2)] were prepared and structurally characterized by X-ray crystallography.

For 1, two dimensional network structure is formed through imidazolium moieties forming hydrogen bonds to di-ionic carboxylate groups of fumarate chains. In the same network layers and adjacent layers, C–H···O contact also accompanies the N⁺–H···O⁻ hydrogen bonds, all these lead the extended architecture to show a three-dimensional lamellar structure. Compound 2 crystallizes in the triclinic, space group P − 1, with a = 7.0236(14) ?, b = 8.2831(17) ?, c = 12.053(2) ?, α = 106.05(4)°, β = 99.13(2)°, γ = 98.84(3)°, V = 650.8(2) ?³, Z = 1. In 2, two parallel imidazolium cations and two antiparallel 2,4,6-trinitrophenolate anions formed 32-membered rings through hydrogen bonding interaction, these rings extended along the c axis direction to form one dimensional railway structure. Adjacent parallel railways connect further through C–H···O hydrogen bonds between the 2-CH of the imidazole ring and the NO₂ group O atoms. These weak interactions combined, the complex showed 3D layer structure.     

The Crystal Structure and Conformational Studies of Acridinedione Derivatives

Abstract  

Two crystal structures of acridinediones namely, TMHAD and MPHAD were studied by X-ray crystallographic method in view of their occurrence in numerous commercial products including pharmaceuticals, fragrances and dyes. Crystal data of TMHAD are: C₁₇H₂₃NO₂, orthorhombic, Fdd2, with cell parameters a = 40.417(6) ?, b = 5.744(1) ?, c = 12.979(2) ?, V = 3013.1(7) ?³, Z = 8, D_cal = 1.205 Mg/m³, μ = 0.078 mm⁻¹.

Orthorhombic Polymorphs of 1-Phenyl-3-(3-Hydroxyphenyl)-2-Propen-1-One

Abstract  

Chalcones, 1,3-diphenyl-2-propene-1-ones, exist naturally and synthetically, and are characterized by the linkage of two aromatic rings joining a three carbon α-β-unsaturated carbonyl entity. We report the observation of two new polymorphs of a hydroxy chalcone, C₆H₅–CO–CH=CH–C₆H₄ (m-OH), identified as a result of a Claisen–Schmidt synthesis and manual screening technique. One polymorph of this compound has been reported previously and exists in the monoclinic system, space group P2/n, with unit cell parameters a = 13.295(6) ?, b = 5.659(2) ?, c = 16.144(8) ?, β = 109.73(5)°, V = 1143.3(9) ?³, and Z = 4. Two crystalline forms (II and III) reported herein, are polymorphs of the reported monoclinic form (I). Form II exists in the orthorhombic system, space group Pca2₁, with unit cell constants a = 11.631 (2) ?, b = 13.163 (3) ?, c = 7.3977 (14) ?, V = 1132.6 (4) ?³, and Z = 4. Form III also crystallizes in the orthorhombic system, however in space group Pbca, with unit cell parameters a = 11.8100(8) ?, b = 7.4075(5) ?, c = 25.8729(19) ?, V = 2263.4(3) ?³, and Z = 8. Variations in the hydrogen bonding connectivity help to distinguish these two forms from the monoclinic, whereas crystal packing differentiates the two orthorhombic forms. The conformation of the C=C (C2–C3) is E for both orthorhombic forms.

Hydrogen Bonded 3D Supramolecular Architectures of Two Organic Salts Assembled from 2-Aminoheterocyclic Compounds and Phosphoric Acid

Abstract  

Two phosphate salts (2-aminopyrimidine): (phosphoric acid): H₂O [HL1⁺ (H₂PO₄) ⁻ ]·H₂O (1), and (4-phenylthiazol-2-amine): (phosphoric acid) [HL2⁺·(H₂PO₄)⁻] (2) based on 2-aminoheterocyclic compounds, 2-aminopyrimidine (L1), and 4-phenylthiazol-2-amine (L2) were prepared and structurally characterized by X-ray crystallography. Compound 1 crystallizes in the triclinic, space group P-1, with a = 6.2201(7) Å, b = 8.6139(9) Å, c = 9.4800(10) Å, α = 109.685(2)°, β = 106.3340(10)°, γ = 95.4450(10)°, V = 448.72(8) Å³, Z = 2. For 1, the cations were linked to each other via intermolecular C–H···N hydrogen bonds to form a 1-D chain structure running along the a-axis direction. The anions and the water molecules were connected alternatively along the a-axis direction through O–H···O hydrogen bonds to form a 1-D chain also. The cationic chains and the anionic chains were alternatively connected along the c-axis direction through N–H···O and C–H···O hydrogen bonds to form a 2D corrugated sheet. Adjacent sheets were combined together through π–π interaction to form double sheet. These double sheets were further joined together by O–H···O and N–H···O hydrogen bonds to produce a 3D network structure. Compound 2 crystallizes in the Orthorhombic, space group Pbca, with a = 10.1929(10) Å, b = 8.4406(9) Å, c = 27.589(2) Å, α = 90°, β = 90°, γ = 90°, V = 2373.6(4) Å³, Z = 8. In 2, the phosphates formed 1D chain along the b-axis through two P–O–H···O = P hydrogen bonds. The cations formed 1D zigzag chain along the b-axis direction under the CH–π interaction. The anionic chains were intercalated between two adjacent cationic chains through N–H···O, O–H···O, C–H···O, and O–S contacts. Such stacking repeated along the c-axis direction to form a 3D network structure.

Molecular Structure of an Unexpected Binuclear Salicylaldimine Semicarbazone Palladium(II) Complex

Abstract  

Reaction of a salicylaldehyde semicarbazone ligand with PdCl₂(PPh₃)₂ yields an unexpected binuclear Pd(II) complex, 2. The complex crystallizes in a triclinic system with a P-1 space group, with unit cell parameters a = 14.0283(3) ?, b = 15.2603(3) ?, c = 18.7142(3) ?, α = 66.662(10)°, β = 86.162(10)°, γ = 76.265(10)°, Z = 2. The semicarbazone ligand acts as a tridentate chelating donor to one palladium metal centre, forming a five- and six- membered ring, and a monodentate donor to the second palladium centre. There are four molecules of solvent per complex molecule in the asymmetric unit. Each metal centre is contained within a slightly distorted square-planar environment.
