Naphthalene‐1,7‐diol

The asymmetric unit of the title compound, C₁₀H₈O₂, contains two planar symmetry‐independent mol­ecules linked by an O—H⋯O hydrogen bond. In the crystal structure, mol­ecules are linked into infinite chains of rings, formed by a combination of O—H⋯O and C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds, and additionally reinforced by π–π stacking inter­actions. Adjacent chains are connected by weak C—H⋯π inter­actions.     

(Benzo­furan‐2‐yl)(3‐methyl‐3‐phenyl­cyclo­butyl)­methanone

The structure of the title compound, C₂₀H₁₈O₂, consists of a dimeric arrangement of benzo­furan mol­ecules around an inversion centre, linked via C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds. There are also C—H⋯π ring interactions. All these interactions result in the formation of infinite chains parallel to the [100] axis. The cyclo­butane ring is puckered, with a dihedral angle of 29.03 (13)° between the two three‐atom planes.     

4‐(Trifluoromethyl)benzonitrile

4‐(Tri­fluoro­methyl)­benzo­nitrile, C₈H₄F₃N, at 123 K contains mol­ecules linked together through one C—H?F bond and two C—H?N hydrogen bonds into sheets that are further crosslinked to form a dense two‐dimensional network without π?π ring interactions. The aromatic ring is slightly deformed due to the two para‐related electronegative groups.     

C—H⋯π, π–π and C—H⋯Cl interactions in chloro‐substituted Schiff bases and 4‐chloro‐N‐[4‐(di­methyl­amino)­benzyl­idene]­aniline

Molecular packing analyses were carried out on 15 crystal data sets of chloro‐substituted Schiff bases, including that of the title compound, C₁₅H₁₅ClN₂. C—H⋯π and π–π interactions play a major role in the molecular self‐assembly in the crystal. The former interactions favor mol­ecules assembling into a screw, with a non‐centrosymmetric crystal structure. When the molecular dipole is small, π–π interactions favor a parallel, but not usually antiparallel, mode of packing. Weak C—H⋯X hydrogen bonds (X = Cl or Br) and X⋯X interactions seem to be a secondary driving force in packing. The title mol­ecule takes the trans form and the two benzene rings are twisted around the central linkage in opposite directions. In the crystal structure, mol­ecules interact through C—H⋯π and π–π interactions, forming a `dimer' and further forming double chains along [001]. The double chains are extended along [10] through C—H⋯Cl hydrogen bonds, forming double layers in (010). In the third direction, there are only ordinary, weaker, van der Waals interactions, which explains the crystal habit (i.e. thin plate).     

N‐{4‐Bromo‐2‐[(3‐bromo‐1‐phenylsulfonyl‐1H‐indol‐2‐yl)methyl]‐5‐methoxyphenyl}acetamide

In the title compound, C₂₄H₂₀Br₂N₂O₄S, the indole ring system is planar and the S atom has a distorted tetrahedral configuration. The sulfonyl‐bound phenyl ring is orthogonal to the indole ring system and the conformation of the phenyl­sulfonyl substituent with respect to the indole moiety is influenced by intramolecular C—H⃛O hydrogen bonds involving the two sulfonyl O atoms. The mean plane through the acetyl­amido group makes a dihedral angle of 57.0 (1)° with the phenyl ring of the benzyl moiety. In the crystal, glide‐related mol­ecules are linked together by N—H⃛O hydrogen bonds and C—H⃛π interactions to form molecular chains, which extend through the crystal. Inversion‐related chains are interlinked by C—H⃛π interactions to form molecular layers parallel to the bc plane. These layers are interconnected through π–π interactions involving the five‐ and six‐membered rings of the indole moiety.     

Bis(3‐nitro­phenyl) di­sulfide forms no C—H⃛O hydrogen bonds

In the title compound, C₁₂H₈N₂O₄S₂, the mol­ecules lie across twofold rotation axes in the space group C2/c. There are no intermolecular C—H?O hydrogen bonds, but the mol­ecules are linked into chains along [001] by aromatic π?π stacking interactions.     

4,6‐Bis­(methyl­sulfanyl)‐1‐(4‐phenoxy­butyl)‐1H‐pyrazolo­[3,4‐d]­pyrimidine

The molecular structure of the title compound, C₁₇H₂₀N₄OS₂, does not show any intramolecular aromatic π–π interactions, but the crystal packing reveals the presence of intermolecular C—H...O and C—H...π interactions. The C—H...O interactions generate chains of mol­ecules that are linked into sheets by C—H...π interactions about inversion centres.     

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.     

2′‐(4‐Fluoro­phenyl)‐[1,2,3]­triazolo[4′,5′:16,17]­androst‐5‐en‐3β‐ol methanol hemisolvate

The asymmetric unit of the title compound, C₂₅H₃₀FN₃O·0.5CH₃OH, contains four symmetry‐independent steroid and two methanol mol­ecules. The conformations of the independent steroid mol­ecules are very similar. Intermolecular O—H⋯O hydrogen bonds create two independent chains, each of which links two of the independent steroid mol­ecules plus one methanol mol­ecule via a co‐operative O—H⋯O—H⋯O—H pattern. Intermolecular C—H⋯O and C—H⋯F interactions are also observed.     

1‐(1‐Amino‐4‐bromo‐9,10‐dioxo‐9,10‐dihydro­anthracen‐2‐ylcarbon­yl)‐1,3‐dicyclo­hexyl­urea

In the title compound, C₂₈H₃₀BrN₃O₄, the mol­ecules are linked by C—H⋯Br and N—H⋯O hydrogen bonds into one‐dimensional chains, which are arranged into a three‐dimensional network through a combination of C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds and two kinds of π–π inter­actions between the benzene rings of the anthraquinone units.     

4‐Amino‐5‐(2‐hydroxy‐4,4‐di­methyl‐6‐oxo­cyclo­hexenyl­methyl)‐1‐methyl‐2‐(methyl­sulfanyl)­pyrimidin‐6(1H)‐one: hydrogen‐bonded chains are π‐stacked in pairs

Molecules of the title compound, C₁₅H₂₁N₃O₃S, have a markedly polarized electronic structure; the carbocyclic ring adopts an envelope conformation and the overall molecular conformation appears to be controlled by two intramolecular hydrogen bonds, one each of the O—H⋯O and N—H⋯O types. The mol­ecules are linked into C(6) chains by an intermol­ecular N—H⋯O hydrogen bond, and pairs of these hydrogen‐bonded chains are linked by a π–π stacking interaction.     

Triclinic and orthorhombic polymorphs of 2‐iodo‐4‐nitro­aniline: interplay of hydrogen bonds,nitro⃛I interactions and aromatic π–π‐stacking interactions

In the triclinic polymorph of 2‐iodo‐4‐nitro­aniline, C₆H₅IN₂O₂, space group P, the mol­ecules are linked by paired N—­H?O hydrogen bonds into C(8)[R(6)] chains of rings. These chains are linked into sheets by nitro?I interactions, and the sheets are pairwise linked by aromatic π–π‐stacking interactions. In the orthorhombic polymorph, space group Pbca, the mol­ecules are linked by single N—H?O hydrogen bonds into spiral C(8) chains; the chains are linked by nitro?O interactions into sheets, each of which is linked to its two immediate neighbours by aromatic π–π‐stacking inter­actions, so producing a continuous three‐dimensional ­structure.     

2‐Ethyl‐6‐methylpyridin‐3‐ol and its salt bis(2‐ethyl‐3‐hydroxy‐6‐methylpyridinium) succinate

The title compounds, C₈H₁₁NO, (I), and 2C₈H₁₂NO⁺·C₄H₄O₄²⁻, (II), both crystallize in the monoclinic space group P2₁/c. In the crystal structure of (I), intermolecular O—H...N hydrogen bonds combine the molecules into polymeric chains extending along the c axis. The chains are linked by C—H...π interactions between the methylene H atoms and the pyridine rings into polymeric layers parallel to the ac plane. In the crystal structure of (II), the succinate anion lies on an inversion centre. Its carboxylate groups interact with the 2‐ethyl‐3‐hydroxy‐6‐methylpyridinium cations via intermolecular N—H...O hydrogen bonds with the pyridine ring H atoms and O—H...O hydrogen bonds with the hydroxy H atoms to form polymeric chains, which extend along the [01] direction and comprise R₄⁴(18) hydrogen‐bonded ring motifs. These chains are linked to form a three‐dimensional network through nonclassical C—H...O hydrogen bonds between the pyridine ring H atoms and the hydroxy‐group O atoms of neighbouring cations. π–π interactions between the pyridine rings and C—H...π interactions between the methylene H atoms of the succinate anion and the pyridine rings are also present in this network.     

cis‐Diaqua­[(E)‐2‐(2‐oxidobenzyl­idene­amino‐κ2N,O)­benzoato‐κO]copper(II): tubes built from O—H⋯O hydrogen‐bonding, π–π and C—H⋯π inter­actions

In the title compound, [Cu(C₁₄H₉NO₃)(H₂O)₂], which crystallizes with Z = 18 in the space group R, pairs of complexes are linked into dimers by three O—H⋯O hydrogen bonds. Strong O—H⋯O hydrogen bonds link the dimers into one‐dimensional chains that further assemble into tubes through π–π and C—H⋯π inter­actions.     

N,N′‐Bis(2‐pyridylmeth­yl)ferrocene‐1,1′‐diyldicarboxamide and N,N′‐bis­(3‐pyridylmeth­yl)ferrocene‐1,1′‐diyldicarboxamide

The mol­ecules of N,N′‐bis­(2‐pyridylmeth­yl)ferrocene‐1,1′‐diyl­dicarboxamide, [Fe(C₁₂H₁₁N₂O)₂], contain intra­molecular N—H⋯N hydrogen bonds and are linked into sheets by three independent C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds. The mol­ecules of the isomeric compound N,N′‐bis­(3‐pyridylmeth­yl)ferrocene‐1,1′‐diyldicarboxamide lie across inversion centres, and the mol­ecules are linked into sheets by a combination of N—H⋯N hydrogen bonds and π–π stacking inter­actions between pyridyl groups.     

N‐(o‐Chloro­phenyl)‐2,5‐di­methyl­pyrrole‐3‐carb­aldehyde

Crystal structure analysis of the title compound, C₁₃H₁₂ClNO, reveals three crystallographically independent mol­ecules in the asymmetric unit. The main conformational difference between these mol­ecules is the orientation of the phenyl rings with respect to the pyrrole rings. The coplanar arrangement of the aldehyde groups attached to the pyrrole rings influences the pyrrole‐ring geometry. The C2—C3 and N1—C5 bonds are noticeably longer than the C4—C5 and N1—C2 bonds. Two independent mol­ecules of the title compound form dimers via intermolecular C—H⃛O hydrogen bonds [D⃛A = 3.400 (3) Å and D—H⃛A = 157°]. The perpendicular orientation of the phenyl and pyrrole rings of one independent mol­ecule and its symmetry‐related mol­ecule allows C—H⃛π interactions, with an H⃛centroid distance of 2.85 Å and a C—H⃛π angle of 155°. The distances between the H atom and the pyrrole‐ring atoms indicate that the C—H bond points towards one of the bonds in the pyrrole ring.     

2‐Iodo‐N‐(3‐nitrobenzyl)aniline and 3‐iodo‐N‐(3‐nitrobenzyl)aniline exhibit entirely different patterns of supramolecular aggregation

In 2‐iodo‐N‐(3‐nitro­benzyl)­aniline, C₁₃H₁₁IN₂O₂, the mol­ecules are linked into a three‐dimensional structure by a combination of C—H?O hydrogen bonds, iodo–nitro interactions and aromatic π–π‐stacking interactions, but N—H?O and C—H?π(arene) hydrogen bonds are absent. In the isomeric 3‐iodo‐N‐(3‐nitro­benzyl)­aniline, a two‐dimensional array is generated by a combination of N—H?O, C—H?O and C—H?π(arene) hydrogen bonds, but iodo–nitro interactions and aromatic π–π‐stacking interactions are both absent.     

C—H⋯N and C—H⋯π interactions in 2‐ethoxy‐4,6‐diphenylpyridine‐3‐carbonitrile

The title compound, C₂₀H₁₆N₂O, has two mol­ecules in the asymmetric unit and the crystal structure shows that the central pyridine ring of each mol­ecule has a flat boat conformation. The terminal C atom in one of the mol­ecules is disordered over two positions, with relative occupancies of 0.594 (14) and 0.398 (14). Intermolecular C—H?N and C—H?π interactions and π–π stacking, along with intramolecular C—H?N and C—H?π interactions, help to stabilize the structure.     

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.
