In the title compound, 4‐(4H‐1,2,4‐triazol‐4‐yl­imino­methyl)­phenol hemi­hydrate, C₉H₈N₄O·0.5H₂O or (I)·0.5H₂O, mol­ecules of (I) are arranged as layers running along the b axis through intermolecular O—H?N and C—H?O hydrogen bonds. These layers are stabilized by hydrogen‐bonded water mol­ecules to form three‐dimensional networks.     

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. All these hydrogen‐bond interactions result in the formation of infinite chains parallel to the [010] direction. The oxime group has an E conformation.     

4‐Phenyl‐3,5‐bis(2‐pyridyl)‐4H‐1,2,4‐triazole

In the title compound, C₁₈H₁₃N₅, the two pyridyl rings form dihedral angles of 32.7 (2) and 30.1 (2)° with the triazole ring. The most favoured orientation of the pyridyl rings is that with their N atoms on opposite sides of the triazole ring directed towards the phenyl ring. π–π‐Stacking interactions involving pyridyl rings are observed along the a axis at a perpendicular distance of 3.670 (3) Å. This arrangement is further stabilized by weak intermolecular C—H?N hydrogen bonds.     

Bis­[4‐(2‐pyridyl­methyl­ene­amino)­phenyl] ether

The title compound, C₂₄H₁₈N₄O, is a bis‐bidentate Schiff base ligand exhibiting pseudo‐C₂ symmetry. The mol­ecule is twisted about the central ether linkage and exhibits an imine E configuration. In the crystal, the mol­ecules are linked by weak intermolecular C—H?N hydrogen bonds.     

N‐(2,4‐Dimethoxy­benzyl­idene­amino)­guanidinium dihydrogenphosphate

In the asymmetric unit of the title compound, C₁₀H₁₅N₄O₂⁺·H₂PO₄⁻, there are two protonated amino­guanidinium cations and two dihydrogenphosphate anions. The positive charge on the protonated amidine group is delocalized over the three C—N bonds in a manner similar to that found in guanidinium salts. The amino­guanidinium cations are found to be the E‐isomer structures. Intra­molecular inter­actions of the N—H⋯N type are observed, leading to the formation of five‐membered rings. Extensive networks of O—H⋯O, N—H⋯O and C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds stabilize the three‐dimensional network. In the crystal structure, π–π inter­actions between the benzene rings, with a distance of 3.778 (2) Å between the ring centroids, also affect the packing of the mol­ecules.     

3,5‐Bis­[4‐(diethyl­amino)­benzyl­idene]‐1‐methyl‐4‐piperidone and 3,5‐bis[4‐(diethyl­amino)­cinnamyl­idene]‐1‐methyl‐4‐piperidone: prospective biophotonic materials

The structures of 3,5‐bis­[4‐(diethyl­amino)­benzyl­idene]‐1‐methyl‐4‐piperidone, C₂₈H₃₇N₃O, (I), and 3,5‐bis­[4‐(diethyl­amino)­cinnamyl­idene]‐1‐methyl‐4‐piperidone, C₃₂H₄₁N₃O, (II), have been characterized. Because of conjugation between donor and acceptor parts, the central heterocycles (including the carbonyl group) in (I) and (II) are flattened and exhibit a `sofa' conformation, with a deviation of the N atom from the planar fragment. The dihedral angles between the planar part of the heterocycle and the two almost flat fragments that include a phenyl ring and bridging atoms are 23.2 (1) and 11.2 (1)° in (I), and 11.8 (1) and 8.7 (2)° in (II).

The folded structure is a result of one intramolecular N—H?O hydrogen bond. A linear chain motif along the c axis best describes the extended intermolecular N—H?O hydrogen bonding.

In the crystal structure of the title compound, C₂₀H₁₆N₄O₂, the two pyridine rings subtend dihedral angles of 39.0 (1) and 43.4 (2)° with the mean quinoxaline plane and 67.6 (1)° with each other. The orientation of the pyridine rings is such that their N‐donors face each other (cis–cis conformation) with a separation of 3.169 (2) Å. There exist significant π–π interactions responsible for the formation of stacks along the crystallographic a axis of the crystal.

Acta Cryst. C 58 , o640–o641], which places all four heteroatoms on the same side of the mol­ecule.

The title compound, [Zn(C₇H₈NO₃S)₂(H₂O)₄], has an octahedral coordination around the central Zn atom composed of two axial N atoms from the pyridine ligands and four equatorial O atoms of water mol­ecules, forming a monomeric centrosymmetric complex. The two Zn—N bond distances are 2.102 (3) Å, while the four Zn—O bond distances range from 2.114 (2) to 2.167 (2) Å. Packing is determined by hydrogen bonds formed by the water mol­ecules. The sulfonate group does not take part in coordination to the Zn atom.

Chalcones (α,β‐unsaturated ketones) are effective antitumour agents. It has been proved that having halogen or methoxy groups substituted in various positions of the phenyl ring enhances the activity of chalcones many times. The title compounds, C₂₁H₂₀O₅ and C₁₉H₁₅BrO₃, respectively, were chosen for crystallographic study in order to determine their structures and conformations. In both compounds, the keto group is in the s‐cis conformation and is almost planar. There are weak intramolecular interactions in both structures.

The title compound, [SnCl₂(CH₃)(C₆H₅)(C₅H₈N₂)₂], was obtained by reaction of di­chloro­methyl­phenyl­tin(IV) and 3,5‐di­methyl­pyrazole (dmpz) in chloro­form, and was recrystallized from acetone. The structure consists of octahedral all‐trans [SnMePhCl₂(dmpz)₂] mol­ecules, with the Sn atom coordinated to two C [Sn—C 2.127 (5) and 2.135 (4) Å], two Cl [Sn—Cl 2.5753 (8) Å] and two N atoms [Sn—N 2.357 (3) Å]. The dmpz ligands, bound to the metal through their unprotonated N atoms, form weak intra‐ and intermolecular hydrogen bonds with the Cl ligands via their NH groups, giving rise to a polymeric chain along the c axis.

The mol­ecule is not planar, the pyridine and di­fluoro­benzene moieties being located above and below the benzo­thia­zole ring system. The carbonyl O atoms are involved in an intramolecular hydrogen‐bond‐type interaction.
