The title compound, C₁₈H₁₈N₄S₄·2C₃H₇NO, crystallizes with the dibenzyl dihydrazinecarbodithioate mol­ecule residing on a crystallographic inversion centre. The mol­ecule adopts a trans conformation with respect to the central C—C single bond. The dihedral angle between the phenyl group and the thio­thio­semicarbazone unit is 74.1 (1)°.     

Di­spiro­[fluorene‐9,5′‐[1,2,3,4]­tetra­thia­ne‐6′,9′′‐fluorene]

The tetra­thia­ne ring of the title compound, C₂₆H₁₆S₄, has a chair conformation and the mol­ecule has approximate C₂ symmetry. Each of the two fluorene ring systems is virtually planar, with the ring planes intersecting at an angle of 67.58 (5)°. This novel compound has been formed as a side product from the treatment of 9H‐fluorene‐9‐thione with methyl N‐[(benzyl­idene)­phenyl]­glycinate in the presence of LiBr and 1,6‐di­aza­bi­cyclo­[5.4.0]­un­decane.     

meso‐2,2′‐Di­phenyl‐3,3′,4,4′‐tetra­hydro‐2,2′‐bi­furan‐5,5′(2H,2′H)‐dione

The crystal structure of the title compound, C₂₀H₁₈O₄, contains a crystallographic inversion center. The C—C bond linking the two halves of the mol­ecule is slightly elongated at 1.577 (3) Å.     

1,1′‐Di­acetyl‐3‐hydroxy‐2,2′,3,3′‐tetra­hydro‐3,3′‐bi(1H‐indole)‐2,2′‐dione

In the title compound, C₂₀H₁₆N₂O₅, both of the 1‐acetyl­isatin (1‐acetyl‐1H‐indole‐2,3‐dione) moieties are planar and form a dihedral angle of 74.1 (1)°. Weak intermolecular hydrogen bonds and C—H?π interactions stabilize the packing in the crystal.     

2,8‐Di­hydroxy‐1,3,7,9‐tetra­methyl‐6,12‐di­hydro­dipyrido­[1,2‐a:1′,2′‐d]pyrazine­diyl­ium dichloride dihydrate

The 2,8‐di­hydroxy‐1,3,7,9‐tetra­methyl‐6,12‐di­hydro­di­pyrido[1,2‐a:1′,2′‐d]pyrazine­diyl­ium dication possesses 2/m symmetry and lies in the mirror plane together with a chloride anion and the water O atom. The dication also lies on an inversion centre, i.e. C₁₆H₂₀N₂O₂²⁺·2Cl^?·2H₂O. Due to these symmetry constrictions the dication adopts an unexpected planar conformation. Molecules are linked by O—H?O and O—H?Cl hydrogen bonds to form chains, which are cross‐connected by C—H?Cl attractive interactions forming a complex three‐dimensional hydrogen‐bond network.     

[N,N′‐Bis­(salicyl­idene)‐2,2‐di­methyl‐1,3‐propane­diaminato]­nickel(II) and [N,N′‐bis­(salicyl­idene)‐2,2‐di­methyl‐1,3‐propane­diaminato]copper(II)

In the title compounds, {2,2′‐[2,2‐di­methyl‐1,3‐propane­diyl­bis­(nitrilo­methyl­idyne)]­diphenolato‐κ⁴N,N′,O,O′}nickel(II), [Ni(C₁₉H₂₀N₂O₂)], and {2,2′‐[2,2‐di­methyl‐1,3‐propane­diyl­bis­(nitrilo­methyl­idyne)]­diphenolato‐κ⁴N,N′,O,O′}copper(II), [Cu(C₁₉H₂₀N₂O₂)], the Ni^II and Cu^II atoms are coordinated by two iminic N and two phenolic O atoms of the N,N′‐bis­(salicyl­idene)‐2,2‐di­methyl‐1,3‐propane­diaminate (SALPD^2?, C₁₇H₁₆N₂O₂^2?) ligand. The geometry of the coordination sphere is planar in the case of the Ni^II complex and distorted towards tetrahedral for the Cu^II complex. Both complexes have a cis configuration imposed by the chelate ligand. The dihedral angles between the N/Ni/O and N/Cu/O coordination planes are 17.20 (6) and 35.13 (7)°, respectively.     

(1E)‐2‐(Di­acetyl­amino)‐1‐methyl­prop‐­1‐enyl acetate

The analysis of the title compound, C₁₀H₁₅NO₄, firmly establishes the configuration of the double bond as E, a stereochemistry that had been assigned tentatively by other methods. The di­acetyl­amine and acetate substituents are approximately coplanar to one another, but approximately perpendicular to the planar ethene core. H atoms of the ethene methyl substituents are found within the ethene plane, indicating that hyperconjugation does not play an important role in stabilizing the double bond.     

Di­aqua­(2,2′‐di­amino‐4,4′‐bi‐1,3‐thia­zole)­oxo­sulfato­vanadium(IV) tetrahydrate

The title compound, [VO(SO₄)(C₆H₆N₄S₂)(H₂O)₂]·4H₂O, displays a distorted octahedral coordination geometry. The 2,2′‐di­amino‐4,4′‐bi­thia­zole ligand is present in the usual chelating bidentate mode. The sulfate ligand coordinates in a monodentate fashion to the V atom. A large displacement of the V atom from the equatorial plane towards the oxo group correlates with the strong V=O double bond. In the crystal structure, a three‐dimensional supramolecular network is formed by hydrogen bonds.     

(E)‐2‐[2‐(1‐Naphthyl)­vinyl]‐3‐tosyl‐2,3‐di­hydro‐1,3‐benzo­thia­zole

The title compound, C₂₆H₂₁NO₂S₂, which consists of a benzo­thia­zole skeleton with α‐naphthyl­vinyl and tosyl groups at positions 2 and 3, respectively, was prepared by palladium–copper‐catalyzed heteroannulation. The E configuration of the mol­ecule about the vinyl C=C bond is established by the benzothiazole–naphthyl C—C—C—C torsion angle of 177.5 (4)°. The five‐membered heterocyclic ring adopts an envelope conformation with the Csp³ atom 0.380 (6) Å from the C₂NS plane. The two S—C [1.751 (4) and 1.838 (4) Å] and two N—C [1.426 (5) and 1.482 (5) Å] bond lengths in the thia­zole ring differ significantly.     

μ‐Oxo‐bis{{2,2′‐[2,2‐di­methyl­propane‐1,3‐diyl­bis­(nitrilomethyl­idyne)]­diphenolato}­oxo­rhenium(V)}

The title compound, [Re₂O₃(C₁₉H₂₀N₂O₂)₂], is a hexacoordinate complex containing an [Re₂O₃]⁴⁺ core with a linear O=Re—O—Re=O bridge. The distorted octahedral coordination of the Re^V atom is achieved by an N₂O₂ donor set from the tetradentate imine–phenol ligand. The overall charge of the compound is neutral due to deprotonation of the phenol groups, and the terminating and bridging O atoms. The Re=O and Re—O bond distances of the [Re₂O₃]⁴⁺ core are 1.699 (4) and 1.911 (1) Å, respectively. The Re—O and Re—N bond distances of the equatorial plane are in the ranges 2.024 (4)–2.013 (4) and 2.128 (5)–2.120 (5) Å, respectively.     

2‐(2‐Pyridyl­imino)‐2H‐1,2,4‐thia­diazo­lo­[2,3‐a]­pyridine

The title compound, C₁₁H₈N₄S, is found to have a symmetrical resonance structure in which both pyridyl‐N atoms interact with the S atom forming hemi‐bonds. This also results in the formation of a delocalized di­imine region and disturbance of the aromaticity in the pyridyl rings.     

7‐Chloro‐1‐(2,6‐di­fluoro­phenyl)‐1H,3H‐thia­zolo­[3,4‐a]­benz­imidazole and 1‐(2,6‐di­fluoro­phenyl)‐6‐methyl‐1H,3H‐thia­zolo­[3,4‐a]­benz­imidazole

The title mol­ecules, C₁₅H₉ClF₂N₂S and C₁₆H₁₂F₂N₂S, respectively, display the well known butterfly‐like conformation with a flat thia­zolobenz­imidazole system. In both compounds, the mean plane through the tricyclic system is almost perpendicular to the 2,6‐di­fluoro­phenyl ring. This arrangement of the aryl group is determined by two intramolecular hydrogen bonds and by an attractive F?S interaction.

The crystal structures of 4‐methyl‐2‐[N‐(3,4‐methyl­ene­dioxybenzyl­idene)hydrazino]­thia­zole, C₁₂H₁₁N₃O₂S, and its reduction product 4‐methyl‐2‐[N‐(3,4‐methyl­ene­dioxybenzyl­idene)hydrazono]‐4,5‐di­hydro­thia­zole, C₁₂H₁₃N₃O₂S, have been determined and compared. In the reduction product, the tautomer observed bears an H atom on the exocyclic N atom. Both compounds form hydrogen‐bonded dimers over centers of inversion.

The title compound, 2,2‐di­methyl­chroman‐6‐ol, C₁₁H₁₄O₂, has been identified as a side product from the condensation of hydro­quinone with 2‐methyl­but‐3‐en‐2‐ol. The pyran ring has a half‐chair conformation. The hydroxyl groups are involved in intermolecular hydrogen bonding which generates infinite spiral chains around the fourfold screw axes; the O?O hydrogen‐bonded distances are 2.661 (1) Å.     

5,6‐Di­phenyl­[1,3]­di­thiolo­[4,5‐b]di­thiine‐2‐thione

In the title compound, C₁₇H₁₀S₅, the dithiine ring adopts a boat conformation while the di­thiole ring has an envelope conformation.

2,2′‐(Iminodimethylene)bis(1H‐benzimidazolium)(1+) chloride

The title compound, C₁₆H₁₆N₅⁺·Cl⁻ (nbbH⁺·Cl⁻), displays N—H⋯N, N—H⋯Cl and π–π inter­actions in the crystal packing. The Cl⁻ anion is chelated by the nbbH⁺ cation via two N—H⋯Cl hydrogen bonds. Inter‐ion N—H⋯N and N—H⋯Cl hydrogen bonds link ions related by 2₁ screw axes into chains along the c axis. These chains are further linked by glide‐plane operations to generate a three‐dimensional network, which is additionally stabilized by inter­chain π–π inter­actions.

The crystal structures of the hemi­pentane (0.5C₅H₁₂) and di­tetra­hydro­furan (2C₄H₈O) solvates of trans‐[MoCl₂(dppe)₂], (IIIa) and (IIIb), respectively, have been determined.

The title complex, C₁₄H₂₀O₄S₈^+.BF₄^?, is a charge‐transfer complex with typical charges for the donor and anion of +1 and ?1, respectively. Two centrosymmetrically related donors form a face‐to‐face π‐dimer with a strong intermolecular S?S interaction. These π‐dimers stack along the a axis to form a donor column. The structure is extensively hydrogen bonded.
