Methyl {1‐[2,3‐O‐iso­propyl­idene‐5‐O‐(4‐nitro­benzoyl)‐α‐d‐ribo­furan­osyl]‐4‐methoxy­carbonyl‐1H‐1,2,3‐triazol‐5‐yl}acetate

In the title compound, C₂₂H₂₄N₄O₁₁, the N‐glycosidic torsion angles O′—C′—N—C and O′—C′—N—N are ?34.1 (6) and 148.8 (3)°, respectively. The mol­ecule displays an α‐d configuration with the ribo­furan­ose moiety in an O′‐exo–C′‐endo pucker. There are only weak C—H?O and C—H?N intra‐ and intermolecular interactions.     

1‐Phenyl‐5‐(piperidino­methyl)‐1H‐tetrazole

In the mol­ecule of the title 1,5‐disubstituted tetrazole, C₁₃H₁₇N₅, the tetrazole and benzene rings are not coplanar, having a dihedral angle of 42.96 (5)° between them. The piperidine fragment adopts a chair conformation, and there is a non‐classical intramolecular contact between the benzene H atom and the piperidine N atom. Intermolecular C—H⋯π interactions involving the piperidine C—H groups and the benzene rings are responsible for the formation of two‐dimensional networks, extending parallel to the ab plane. These networks are linked together into a three‐dimensional polymeric structure viaπ–π stacking interactions between the tetrazole rings of two adjacent mol­ecules.     

Hydro­gen‐bonded adducts of ferrocene‐1,1′‐diyl­bis­(di­phenyl­methanol): a finite cyclic 1:1 adduct with 2,2′‐dipyridyl­amine

In ferrocene‐1,1′‐diyl­bis­(di­phenyl­methanol)–2,2′‐dipyridyl­amine (1/1), [Fe(C₁₈H₁₅O)₂]·C₁₀H₉N₃, (I), there is an intramolecular O—H?O hydrogen bond [H?O 2.03 Å, O?O 2.775 (2) Å and O—H?O 147°] in the ferrocenediol component, and the two neutral molecular components are linked by one O—H?N hydrogen bond [H?N 1.96 Å, O?N 2.755 (2) Å and O—H?N, 157°] and one N—H?O hydrogen bond [H?O 2.26 Å, N?O 3.112 (2) Å and N—H?O 164°] forming a cyclic R(8) motif. One of the pyridyl N atoms plays no part in the intermolecular hydrogen bonding, but participates in a short intramolecular C—H?N contact [H?N 2.31 Å, C?N 2.922 (2) Å and C—H?N 122°].     

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.     

Two derivatives of 5‐amino­tetrazole: 5‐amino‐1‐phenyl­tetrazole and 5‐amino‐1‐(1‐naphthyl)­tetrazole

In the mol­ecules of 5‐amino‐1‐phenyl­tetrazole, C₇H₇N₅, (I), and 5‐amino‐1‐(1‐naphthyl)­tetrazole, C₁₁H₉N₅, (II), the tetrazole rings and aryl fragments are not coplanar; corresponding dihedral angles are 50.58 (5) and 45.19 (7)° for the two independent mol­ecules of (I), and 64.14 (5)° for (II). Intermolecular N—H⋯N hydrogen bonds between the amino groups and tetrazole N atoms are primarily responsible for formation of two‐dimensional networks extending parallel to the bc plane in both compounds. The presence of the amino group has a distinct effect on the geometry of the tetrazole rings in each case.     

Hydro­gen‐bonded adducts of ferrocene‐1,1′‐diyl­bis­(di­phenyl­methanol): monomeric and dimeric 1:1 adducts with 1,2‐bis(4‐pyridyl)­ethane and 1,2‐­diamino­ethane

In ferrocene‐1,1′‐diyl­bis­(di­phenyl­methanol)–4,4′‐ethyl­enedi­pyridine (1/1), [Fe(C₁₈H₁₅O)₂]·C₁₂H₁₂N₂, there is an intra­molecular O—H?O hydrogen bond in the ferrocenediol component and a single O—H?N hydrogen bond linking the two components into a finite monomeric adduct. Ferrocene‐1,1′‐diyl­bis­(di­phenyl­methanol)–ethyl­enedi­amine (1/1), [Fe(C₁₈H₁₅O)₂]·C₂H₈N₂, crystallizes with Z′ = 2 in space group P, and there are two independent four‐component aggregates in the structure, both of which are centrosymmetric. In the first type of aggregate, the molecular components are linked by O—H?N and N—H?O hydrogen bonds, in which both di­amine N atoms participate; in the second type of aggregate, the di­amine component is disordered over two sets of sites, but only one N atom is involved in the hydrogen bonding.     

3,4‐Di­hydro‐6‐methyl‐3‐β‐d‐ribo­furan­osyl‐4,5′‐cyclo‐9H‐imidazo[1,2‐a]­purin‐9‐one hydrate

In the title compound, C₁₃H₁₃N₅O₄·H₂O (4,5′‐cyclo­wyosine·H₂O), the cyclization forces a syn arrangement of the aglycon with respect to the sugar moiety. The ribo­furan­ose part of the mol­ecule displays a β‐d configuration with an envelope C1′‐endo pucker. The mol­ecules are arranged in columns along the short a axis and are linked to water mol­ecules through O—H?O and O—H?N hydrogen bonds.     

The layered structure of poly­[[di‐μ‐chloro‐bis­[chloro(2‐ethyl­tetrazole‐κN4)copper(II)]]‐di‐μ‐2‐ethyl­tetrazole‐κ2N1:N4]

In the polymeric title complex, [CuCl₂(C₃H₆N₄)₂]_n, there are two ligands in the asymmetric unit. The Cu atom adopts an elongated octahedral geometry, with two 2‐ethyl­tetrazole ligands [Cu—N = 2.0037 (16) and 2.0136 (16) Å] and two Cl atoms [Cu—Cl = 2.2595 (6) and 2.2796 (6) Å] in equatorial positions. A Cl atom and a symmetry‐related 2‐ethyl­tetrazole mol­ecule [Cu—Cl = 2.8845 (8) Å and Cu—N = 2.851 (2) Å] lie in the axial positions of the octahedron. One of the two 2‐­ethyltetrazole ligands of the asymmetric unit exhibits bidentate binding to two Cu atoms through two N atoms of the tetrazole ring, whereas the other ligand is coordinated in a monodentate fashion via one tetrazole N atom. The Cu‐atom octahedra form dimer entities by sharing edges with equatorial and axial Cl atoms. The dimers are linked together through the 2‐ethyl­tetrazole ligands to form one‐dimensional polymeric zigzag chains extending along the b axis. The chains are connected into infinite layers parallel to the (10) plane via the 2‐ethyl­tetrazole ligands.     

Hydro­gen‐bonded adducts of ferrocene‐1,1′‐diyl­bis­(di­phenyl­methanol): monomeric and polymeric adducts with 1,2‐bis(4‐pyridyl)­ethene and 1,6‐di­amino­hexane

In the adduct ferrocene‐1,1′‐diyl­bis­(di­phenyl­methanol)–1,2‐bis(4‐pyridyl)­ethene (1/1), [Fe(C₁₈H₁₅O)₂]·C₁₂H₁₀N₂, there is an intramolecular O—H?O hydrogen bond in the ferro­cene­diol component and a single O—H?N hydrogen bond linking the diol to the di­amine, which is disordered over two sets of sites, so forming a finite monomeric adduct. In the adduct ferrocene‐1,1′‐diyl­bis­(di­phenyl­methanol)–1,6‐di­amino­hexane (2/1), 2[Fe(C₁₈H₁₅O)₂]·C₆H₁₆N₂, the amine lies across a centre of inversion in space group P. There is an intramolecular O—H?O hydrogen bond in the ferrocenediol, and the molecular components are linked by O—H?N and N—H?O hydrogen bonds, one of each type, into a C(13)[R(12)] chain of rings.     

1‐(2,4,6‐Tri­methyl­phenyl)‐1H‐1,2,3,4‐tetrazole

In the title compound, C₁₀H₁₂N₄, the tetrazole and phenyl rings are planar to within 0.001 (2) and 0.006 (2) Å, respectively. The two rings are not coplanar and have a dihedral angle of 69.07 (9)° between them. Each mol­ecule is connected with two adjacent ones by C—H?N bridges between atoms of tetrazole rings forming chains parallel with the y axis of the unit cell.     

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.     

Supramolecular structures of 5‐[3‐(4‐methyl­phenyl)‐ and 5‐[3‐(4‐chloro­phenyl)‐2‐propenyl­idene]‐2,2‐di­methyl‐1,3‐dioxane‐4,6‐dione

2,2‐Di­methyl‐5‐[3‐(4‐methyl­phenyl)‐2‐propenyl­idene]‐1,3‐di­ox­ane‐4,6‐dione, C₁₆H₁₆O₄, crystallizes in the triclinic space group , with two mol­ecules in the asymmetric unit. These mol­ecules and a centrosymmetrically related pair, linked together by weak C—H?O hydrogen bonds, form a tetramer. 5‐[3‐(4‐Chloro­phenyl)‐2‐propenyl­idene]‐2,2‐di­methyl‐1,3‐dioxane‐4,6‐dione, C₁₅H₁₃ClO₄, also crystallizes in the triclinic space group , with one mol­ecule in the asymmetric unit. Centrosymmetrically related mol­ecules are linked together by weak C—H?O hydrogen bonds to form dimers which are further linked by yet another pair of centrosymmetrically related C—H?O hydrogen bonds to form a tube which runs parallel to the a axis.     

Ethyl 3‐(2′‐deoxyuridin‐5‐yl)‐3‐hydroxy‐2‐iodopropanoate,a ­nucleoside analogue

In the title compound, C₁₄H₁₉IN₂O₈, an almost planar heterocyclic base is oriented anti with respect to the puckered sugar moiety. The sugar pucker is C2′‐endo/C3′‐exo, the N‐glycosidic torsion angle is 166.4 (4)° and the conformation of O5′ is +sc. The mol­ecules are linked by hydrogen bonds of the types N—H?O and O—H?O.     

4,7‐Bis(4‐pyridyl­ethynyl)‐2,1,3‐benzo­thia­diazo­le and its dipyridinium diperchlorate

The title compound, C₂₀H₁₀N₄S, and its dipyridinium salt, 4,4′‐(2,1,3‐benzo­diazol‐4,7‐diyl­diethynyl)­dipyridinium diperchlorate, C₂₀H₁₂N₄S²⁺·2ClO₄^?, display bond alternation in the 2,1,3‐benzo­thia­diazo­le rings, which suggests their quinonoid character. The dipyridinium dication mol­ecules stack along the a axis and form a dimer with short S?N interheteroatom contacts [3.146 (4) Å] between the two 1,2,5‐thia­diazo­le rings. The dimer is surrounded by the perchlorate anions with which it forms a large number of intermolecular N—H?O and C—H?O hydrogen bonds.     

3′,4′‐Bis(4‐chloro­phenyl)­spiro­[chroman‐3,5′(4′H)‐isoxazol]‐4‐one

The title compound, C₂₃H₁₅Cl₂NO₃, crystallizes with two independent mol­ecules in the asymmetric unit. The chroman­one moiety consists of a benzene ring fused with a six‐membered heterocyclic ring which adopts a sofa conformation. The five‐membered spiro­isoxazoline ring is in an envelope conformation. The p‐chloro­phenyl rings bridged by the five‐membered ring are nearly perpendicular to each other. The chromanone moiety of one mol­ecule packs into the cavity formed by the p‐chloro­phenyl rings of a second mol­ecule through the formation of C—H?π interactions. The structure is stabilized by weak C—H?O, C—H?Cl and C—H?π interactions.     

4‐Ethynyl‐4‐hydroxycyclohexan‐1‐one and 4‐ethynyl‐4‐hydroxy‐2,3,5,6‐tetramethylcyclohexa‐2,5‐dien‐1‐one

The title compounds, C₈H₁₀O₂, (I), and C₁₂H₁₄O₂, (II), occurred as by‐products in the controlled synthesis of a series of bis­(gem‐alkynols), prepared as part of an extensive study of synthon formation in simple gem‐alkynol derivatives. The two 4‐(gem‐alkynol)‐1‐ones crystallize in space group P2₁/c, (I) with Z′ = 1 and (II) with Z′ = 2. Both structures are dominated by O—H?O=C hydrogen bonds, which form simple chains in the cyclo­hexane derivative, (I), and centrosymmetric dimers, of both symmetry‐independent mol­ecules, in the cyclo­hexa‐2,5‐diene, (II). These strong synthons are further stabilized by C[triple‐bond]C—H?O=C, C_methylene—H?O(H) and C_methyl—H?O(H) interactions. The direct intermolecular interactions between donors and acceptors in the gem‐alkynol group, which characterize the bis­(gem‐alkynol) analogues of (I) and (II), are not present in the ketone derivatives studied here.     

catena‐Poly­[[[cis‐bis(1‐phenyl­tetra­zole‐κN4)copper(II)]‐di‐μ‐chloro] hemi(1‐phenyl­tetrazole)]

The title compound, {[CuCl₂(PhTz)₂]·0.5PhTz}_n (PhTz is 1‐­phenyl­tetrazole, C₇H₆N₄), has a polymeric structure, with uncoordinated disordered PhTz mol­ecules in the cavities. The coordination polyhedron of the Cu atom is a highly elongated octahedron. The equatorial positions are occupied by two Cl atoms [Cu—Cl = 2.2687 (9) and 2.2803 (7) Å] and two N atoms of the PhTz ligands [Cu—N = 2.0131 (19) and 2.0317 (18) Å]. The more distant axial positions are occupied by two Cl atoms [Cu—Cl = 3.0307 (12) and 2.8768 (11) Å] that lie in the equatorial planes of two neighbouring Cu octahedra. The [CuCl₂(PhTz)₂] units are linked by Cu—Cl bridges into infinite chains extending parallel to the a axis. The chains are linked into two‐dimensional networks by intermolecular C—H⋯N interactions between the phenyl and tetrazole fragments, and by face‐to‐face π–π interactions between symmetry‐related phenyl rings. These two‐dimensional networks, which lie parallel to the ac plane, are connected by intermolecular π–π stacking interactions between phenyl rings, thus forming a three‐dimensional network.     

2′‐Deoxy‐7‐propynyl‐7‐deaza­adenosine: a DNA duplex‐stabilizing nucleoside

In the title compound, 2′‐deoxy‐7‐propynyl‐7‐deaza­adenosine, C₁₄H₁₆N₄O₃, the torsion angle of the N‐glycosylic bond is anti [χ = −130.7 (2)°]. The sugar pucker of the 2′‐deoxy­ribo­furanosyl moiety is C2′‐endo–C3′‐exo, ²T₃ (S‐type), with P = 185.9 (2)° and τ_m = 39.1 (1)°, and the orientation of the exocyclic C4′—C5′ bond is −ap (trans). The 7‐substituted propynyl group is nearly coplanar with the heterocyclic base moiety. Mol­ecules of the nucleoside form a layered network in which the heterocyclic bases are stacked head‐to‐tail with a closest distance of 3.197 (1) Å. The crystal structure of the nucleoside is stabilized by three inter­molecular hydrogen bonds of types N—H⋯ O, O—H⋯ N and O—H⋯ O.     

3,9‐Bis(dicyanomethylene)‐2,4,8,10‐tetrathiaspiro[5.5]undecane

The title compound, 2,2′‐(2,4,8,10‐tetra­thia­spiro­[5.5]­undec­ane‐3,9‐diyl­idene)­bis­(propane­di­nitrile), C₁₃H₈N₄S₄, has been designed and synthesized for use as a potential new organic molecular electronic material. The spiro‐annulated structure has twofold symmetry and is formed by two equal push–pull ethyl­ene units, with the cyclo­alkyl­thio groups as electron donors and the cyano groups as electron acceptors. The intermolecular S?N non‐bonded separation within a layer in the lattice is 3.296 (6) Å, indicating a strong intermolecular interaction between the cyano groups and the S atoms, while the S atoms in two neighbouring mol­ecules have a shortest S?S contact of 3.449 (3) Å. In addition, attractive C—H?N and C—H?S interactions bridge adjacent mol­ecules either within a layer or between layers. In short, these four types of intermolecular interactions combine to form an extended three‐dimensional network in the lattice, resulting in a highly ordered array of molecular packing.     

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.
