Methyl 1‐(4‐chloro­benzyl)‐2‐(4‐methyl­piperazin‐1‐yl)‐1H‐benz­imidazole‐5‐carboxyl­ate hemihydrate

The title compound, C₂₁H₂₃ClN₄O₂·0.5H₂O, contains two independent mol­ecules in the asymmetric unit. In each mol­ecule the piperazine ring adopts a chair conformation; the deviations of the piperazine N atoms from the best plane through the remaining four C atoms are ?0.678 (3) and 0.662 (3) Å in mol­ecule A, and 0.687 (3) and ?0.700 (3) Å in mol­ecule B. The mol­ecules are linked by two hydrogen bonds of the O—H?N type involving the O atom of the water mol­ecule of crystallization.     

2,3,6,7‐Tetra­hydroxy‐9,10‐di­methyl‐9,10‐di­hydro‐9,10‐ethano­anthracene bis(1,4‐dioxane) solvate

2,3,6,7‐Tetra­hydroxy‐9,10‐di­methyl‐9,10‐di­hydro‐9,10‐ethano­anthracene crystallizes with 1,4‐dioxane to give a bis‐solvate, C₁₈H₁₈O₄·2C₄H₈O₂. The bis­(catechol) mol­ecule is located on a twofold axis and the two aromatic rings form a dihedral angle of 130.61 (4)°. Hydro­gen bonds are formed between the hydroxyl groups and either a neighbouring bis­(catechol) mol­ecule or the ether‐O atom of a dioxane mol­ecule.     

3,5‐Di­amino‐6‐(2‐fluoro­phenyl)‐1,2,4‐triazine–di­methyl­form­amide (1/1)

The title compound, C₉H₈FN₅·C₃H₇NO, contains two independent complexes in the asymmetric unit, each consisting of one 3,5‐di­amino‐6‐(2‐fluoro­phenyl)‐1,2,4‐triazine mol­ecule and one di­methyl­form­amide solvent mol­ecule. One triazine mol­ecule is disordered over two conformations within the crystal, the occupancies being 62 (1) and 38 (1)%. The phenyl ring of this mol­ecule resolves into two conformations rotated by almost 180° about the bridging bond between the two rings, while the triazine rings approximately superimpose on each other. The triazine mol­ecules of the asymmetric unit differ in the dihedral angles between their respective phenyl and triazine ring planes, these being 57.6 (2)° for the fully occupied, and 76.9 (6) and 106.8 (8)° for the partially occupied mol­ecules. An extensive network of hydrogen bonds maintains the crystal structure.     

Di­methyl (1‐methyl‐1,3‐benzimidazol‐5‐yl)­amino­methyl­ene­propane­dioate monohydrate

In the title compound, C₁₄H₁₅N₃O₄·H₂O, there is a strong conjugation push–pull effect across the central double bond, as reflected in the molecular dimensions and the planarity of the en­amino­ne portion of the mol­ecule. The mol­ecule has an intramolecular hydrogen bond between the NH and CO groups in the Z configuration, adopting the chelated form. The two π systems of the mol­ecule (1‐methyl­benz­imidazole and en­amino­ne) are deconjugated and tilted with respect to each other by 15.6 (2)°. The solvent water mol­ecule is hydrogen bonded to the N¹ atom of the 1‐methyl­benzimidazolyl group.     

4‐Acetamido‐3,3,5,5‐[2H4]‐2,2,6,6‐tetra­([2H3]methyl)piperidin‐1‐yloxyl 0.33‐hydrate

The asymmetric unit of the title compound, C₁₁H₅D₁₆N₂O₂·0.33H₂O, is formed by three crystallographically independent piperidin‐1‐yloxyl mol­ecules and a mol­ecule of water. The mol­ecules are crosslinked by nine hydrogen bonds into layers parallel with the ac plane. The water mol­ecule contributes to the stability of the low‐symmetry arrangement by four hydrogen bonds.     

2‐(Phenyl­amino­methyl­idene)­cyclo­hexane‐1,3‐dione

In the title compound, C₁₃H₁₃NO₂, there is polarization of π‐electron density from the amine N atom to the acceptor carbonyl groups: as a result, the mol­ecule exists predominantly in an azomethino‐1,3‐diketone tautomeric form. There is crystallographic evidence that the phenyl ring, although roughly coplanar with the rest of the mol­ecule, is deconjugated with the adjacent π system of the mol­ecule. The cyclo­hexane ring adopts an unsymmetrical half‐chair conformation and converts between two inversion‐related conformers. The mol­ecule is stabilized by an intramolecular hydrogen bond, while the intermolecular packing is dominated by a number of short C—H⋯O contacts.     

4,5‐Diazafluoren‐9‐ol

The title compound, C₁₁H₈N₂O, has two crystallographically independent mol­ecules in the crystal. Each mol­ecule is basically planar except for the O atom. The two N atoms in the mol­ecule show different behaviour as hydrogen‐bonding acceptors. One of them is involved in intermolecular O—H?N hydrogen bonds which stabilize the crystal packing.     

4‐Dimethyl­amino‐β‐nitro­styrene and 4‐dimethyl­amino‐β‐ethyl‐β‐nitro­styrene at 100 K

The structures of 4‐dimethyl­amino‐β‐nitro­styrene (DANS), C₁₀H₁₂N₂O₂, and 4‐dimethyl­amino‐β‐ethyl‐β‐nitro­styrene (DAENS), C₁₂H₁₆N₂O₂, have been solved at T = 100 K. The structure solution for DANS was complicated by the presence of a static disorder, characterized by a misorientation of 17% of the mol­ecules. The mol­ecule of DANS is almost planar, indicating significant conjugation, with a push–pull effect through the styrene skeleton extending up to the terminal substituents and enhancing the dipole moment. As a consequence of this conjugation, the hexa­gonal ring displays a quinoidal character; the lengths of the C—N [1.3595 (15) Å] and C—C [1.448 (2) Å] bonds adjacent to the benzene ring are shorter than single bonds. The mol­ecules are stacked in dimers with anti­parallel dipoles. In contrast, the mol­ecule of DAENS is not planar. The ethyl substituent pushes the nitro­propene group out of the benzene plane, with a torsion angle of −21.9 (3). Nevertheless, the mol­ecule remains conjugated, with a shortening of the same bonds as in DANS.     

2,2′‐Bi(9,9‐di­hexyl­fluorene)

The central part of the title mol­ecule, C₅₀H₆₆, is planar, all the rings being in the same plane; the lateral chains are also planar (excluding H atoms), almost perpendicular to the ring plane and grafted on the same side of the mol­ecule. The mol­ecule has nearly a mirror plane, perpendicular to the central C—C bond, instead of the centre of symmetry expected. The orientation of the plane of the rings is approximately 45° from the unit‐cell b axis, so that neighbouring mol­ecules are essentially perpendicular.     

[1,3‐Bis(2‐ethoxy­phenyl)imidazolidin‐2‐yl­idene]bromo­(cyclo­octa‐1,5‐diene)­rhodium(I)

The title complex, [RhBr(C₈H₁₂)(C₁₉H₂₂N₂O₂)], has a distorted square‐planar geometry. There are two mol­ecules, A and B, in the asymmetric unit. The Rh—C bond distance between the N‐heterocyclic ligand and the metal atom is 2.039 (2) Å in mol­ecule A and 2.042 (2) Å in mol­ecule B. The angle between the carbene heterocycle and the coordination plane is 87.56 (12)° in mol­ecule A and 87.03 (11)° in mol­ecule B. It is shown that the average Rh—C(COD) (COD is cyclo­octa­diene) distance is linearly dependent on the Rh—C(imidazolidine) distance in this type of compound. This can be ascribed to the steric hindrance produced by the packing. The crystal structure contains intra­molecular C—H⋯O and inter­molecular C—H⋯Br inter­actions.     

tert‐Butyl (3S,6R,9R)‐(5‐oxo‐3‐{[1(R)‐phenyl­ethyl]­carbamoyl}‐1,2,3,5,6,7,8,8a‐octa­hydro­indolizin‐6‐yl)­carbamate monohydrate at 95 K

The asymmetric unit of the title compound, C₂₂H₃₁N₃O₄·H₂O, incorporates one water mol­ecule, which is hydrogen bonded to the 3‐oxo O atom of the indolizidinone system. The two rings of the peptidomimetic mol­ecule are trans‐fused, with the six‐membered ring having a slightly distorted half‐chair conformation and the five‐membered ring having a perfect envelope conformation. The structure is stabilized by intermolecular O—H?O interactions between the water and adjacent peptide mol­ecules, and by N—H?O interactions between the peptide mol­ecules, which link the mol­ecules into infinite chains.     

[2,6‐Bis(1H‐benzimidazol‐2‐yl‐κN3)­pyridine‐κN](di­methyl­form­amide‐κO)­(thio­sulfato‐κ2O,S)­nickel(II) mono­hydrate

The structure of the title compound, [Ni(ths)(bbip)(dmf)]·­H₂O [ths is thio­sulfate, S₂O₃; bbip is 2,6‐bis(1H‐benz­imidazol‐2‐yl)­pyridine, C₂₁H₁₃N₅; and dmf is di­methyl­form­amide, C₃H₇NO], is monomeric, with the nickel ion octahe­drally surrounded by an N,N′,N′′‐tridentate bbip mol­ecule, an S,O‐bidentate ths mol­ecule and an O‐monodentate dmf mol­ecule. The H atoms of the hydration water mol­ecule and the amino groups of bbip are involved in hydrogen bonding and determine a spatial organization of broad layers parallel to (001), which are connected by weak interactions.     

1‐(2‐Hydro­xy‐4‐methoxy­phenyl)‐3‐(2,3,4‐tri­methoxy­phenyl)­prop‐2‐en‐1‐one

The title compound, C₁₉H₂₀O₆, crystallizes in the centrosymmetric space group P2₁/c with one mol­ecule in the asymmetric unit. The mol­ecule is approximately planar and the dihedral angle between the phenyl rings is 11.0 (1)°. The H atoms of the central propenone group are trans. There is an intramolecular O—H⃛O hydrogen bond and the mol­ecules are crosslinked by four intermolecular C—H⃛O hydrogen bonds, producing a three‐dimensional network.     

2,2,4,4‐Tetra‐tert‐butyl‐1,3,5,2,4‐benzotrioxadisilepine‐7‐carbaldehyde

The mol­ecule of the title compound, C₂₃H₄₀O₄Si₂, features an approximate non‐crystallographic C₂ symmetry axis. The aldehyde group is disordered over two positions with similar occupancies. The geometry of the isolated mol­ecule was studied by ab initio quantum mechanical calculations employing a mol­ecular orbital Hartree–Fock method. The calculations reproduce well the equilibrium geometry but slightly overestimate the value of the Si—O bond lengths of the trioxadisilepine ring.     

5‐Fluoro­indoline‐2,3‐dione

In the title compound (5‐fluoro­isatin), C₈H₄FNO₂, the N atom of one mol­ecule is linked to the amido‐O atom of an adjacent mol­ecule across a center of symmetry by a cyclic hydrogen bond [N?O = 2.888 (4) Å].     

4‐[(2‐Chloro­phenyl)­diazenyl]‐6‐methoxy‐2‐{[tris­(hydroxy­methyl)­methyl]­amino­methyl­ene}cyclo­hexa‐3,5‐dien‐1(2H)‐one

The structure of the title compound, C₁₈H₂₀ClN₃O₅, displays the characteristic features of azo­benzene derivatives. Intramolecular N—H⋯O, weak intramolecular C—H⋯O, and intermolecular O—H⋯O and C—H⋯O interactions influence the conformation of the mol­ecules and the crystal packing. Intermolecular hydrogen bonds link the mol­ecules into infinite chains, and the title compound adopts the keto–amine tautomeric form. The azo­benzene moiety of the mol­ecule has a trans configuration. The mol­ecule is not planar, and the dihedral angle between the two phenyl rings is 35.6 (2)°.     

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.     

A substituted EDOT precursor: diethyl 3,4‐di­hydroxy­thio­phene‐2,5‐di­carboxyl­ate

The title compound, C₁₀H₁₂O₆S, has been obtained as dark‐yellow chunk‐shaped crystals, together with the expected thin white needles. The structures of the two phases are identical. Two independent mol­ecules compose the asymmetric unit: one mol­ecule is totally planar, whereas a methyl group of the second mol­ecule points out of the plane. Each mol­ecule participates in several intra‐ and intermolecular hydrogen bonds and short contacts. The overall structure can be regarded as parallel sheets of mol­ecules. Within a sheet, mol­ecules are connected to one another in an infinite network via numerous short intermolecular contacts. Sheets are connected via hydrogen bonds and short contacts, in particular involving the methyl groups.     

N‐(2‐Amino‐1,6‐di­hydro‐5‐nitro­so‐6‐oxopyrimidin‐4‐yl)‐l‐isoleucine–water (4/1): interplay of molecular and supramolecular structures

In the title compound, 2C₁₀H₁₅N₅O₄·0.5H₂O, there are two independent mol­ecules of the pyrimidinyl­isoleucine in general positions and a water mol­ecule lying on a twofold rotation axis. The bond lengths within the organic moieties demonstrate significant polarization of the electronic structure. Each of the organic mol­ecules participates in 12 intermolecular hydrogen bonds, of O—H?O and N—H?O types, while the water mol­ecule acts as a double donor and as a double acceptor of O—H?O hydrogen bonds. The organic components are linked by the hydrogen bonds into a single three‐dimensional framework, reinforced by the water mol­ecules.     

1‐Methyl‐5,6‐di­phenyl­pyrazine‐2(1H)‐thione

The title compound, C₁₇H₁₄N₂S, crystallizes in a triclinic unit cell, with two crystallographically independent mol­ecules in the asymmetric unit. The two independent mol­ecules pack in the same sense and form segregated layers along the c axis. The crystal is light‐stable and no dimers are formed under irradiation. The intermolecular distances between the potential reactive centers (the C‐3 and C‐5 ring positions) are 4.093 (4) and 5.643 (4) Å for mol­ecule A, and 4.081 (4) and 5.614 (4) Å for mol­ecule B.
