Felodipine–diazabicyclo[2.2.2]octane–water (1/1/1)

The title compound, C₁₈H₁₉Cl₂NO₄·C₆H₁₂N₂·H₂O, is a cocrystal hydrate containing the active pharmaceutical ingredient felodipine and diazabicyclo[2.2.2]octane (DABCO). The DABCO and water molecules are linked through O—H...N hydrogen bonds into chains around 2₁ screw axes, while the felodipine molecules form N—H...O hydrogen bonds to the water molecules. The felodipine molecules adopt centrosymmetric back‐to‐back arrangements that are similar to those present in all of its four reported polymorphs. The dichlorophenyl rings also form π‐stacking interactions. The inclusion of water molecules in the cocrystal, rather than formation of N—H...N hydrogen bonds between felodipine and DABCO, may be associated with steric hindrance that would arise between DABCO and the methyl groups of felodipine if they were directly involved in hydrogen bonding.     

(S)‐5‐Benzylimidazolidine‐2,4‐dione monohydrate

The crystal structure of the title compound, C₁₀H₁₀N₂O₂·H₂O, also known as l ‐5‐benzylhydantoin monohydrate, is described in terms of two‐dimensional supramolecular arrays built up from infinite chains assembled via N—H...O and O—H...O hydrogen bonds among the organic molecules and solvent water molecules, with graph‐set R³₃(10)C(5)C²₂(6). The hydrogen‐bond network is reinforced by stacking of the layers through C—H...π interactions.     

The three‐dimensional hydrogen‐bonded structures in the ammonium and sodium salt hydrates of 4‐aminophenylarsonic acid

The structures of two hydrated salts of 4‐aminophenylarsonic acid (p‐arsanilic acid), namely ammonium 4‐aminophenylarsonate monohydrate, NH₄⁺·C₆H₇AsNO₃⁻·H₂O, (I), and the one‐dimensional coordination polymer catena‐poly[[(4‐aminophenylarsonato‐κO)diaquasodium]‐μ‐aqua], [Na(C₆H₇AsNO₃)(H₂O)₃]_n, (II), have been determined. In the structure of the ammonium salt, (I), the ammonium cations, arsonate anions and water molecules interact through inter‐species N—H...O and arsonate and water O—H...O hydrogen bonds, giving the common two‐dimensional layers lying parallel to (010). These layers are extended into three dimensions through bridging hydrogen‐bonding interactions involving the para‐amine group acting both as a donor and an acceptor. In the structure of the sodium salt, (II), the Na⁺ cation is coordinated by five O‐atom donors, one from a single monodentate arsonate ligand, two from monodentate water molecules and two from bridging water molecules, giving a very distorted square‐pyramidal coordination environment. The water bridges generate one‐dimensional chains extending along c and extensive interchain O—H...O and N—H...O hydrogen‐bonding interactions link these chains, giving an overall three‐dimensional structure. The two structures reported here are the first reported examples of salts of p‐arsanilic acid.     

Water‐induced pseudo‐quadruple hydrogen‐bonding motifs in xanthine–inorganic acid complexes

In xanthinium nitrate hydrate [systematic name: 2,6‐dioxo‐1,2,3,6‐tetrahydro‐9H‐purin‐7‐ium nitrate monohydrate], C₅H₅N₄O₂⁺·NO₃⁻·H₂O, (I), and xanthinium hydrogen sulfate hydrate [systematic name: 2,6‐dioxo‐1,2,3,6‐tetrahydro‐9H‐purin‐7‐ium hydrogen sulfate monohydrate], C₅H₅N₄O₂⁺·HSO₄⁻·H₂O, (II), the xanthine molecules are protonated at the imine N atom with the transfer of an H atom from the inorganic acid. The asymmetric unit of (I) contains a xanthinium cation, a nitrate anion and one water molecule, while that of (II) contains two crystallographically independent xanthinium cations, two hydrogen sulfate anions and two water molecules. A pseudo‐quadruple hydrogen‐bonding motif is formed between the xanthinium cations and the water molecules via N—H...O and O—H...O hydrogen bonds in both structures, and leads to the formation of one‐dimensional polymeric tapes. These cation–water tapes are further connected by the respective anions and aggregate into two‐dimensional hydrogen‐bonded sheets in (I) and three‐dimensional arrangements in (II).     

Streptidinium sulfate monohydrate

In streptidinium sulfate monohydrate {systematic name: 1,1′‐[(1S,3R,4S,6R)‐2,4,5,6‐tetrahydroxycyclohexane‐1,3‐diyl]diguanidinium sulfate monohydrate}, C₈H₂₀N₆O₄²⁺·SO₄²⁻·H₂O, at 100 (2) K, the components are arranged in double helices based on hydrogen bonds. One helix contains streptidinium cations and the other contains disordered sulfate anions and solvent water molecules. The helices are linked into a three‐dimensional hydrogen‐bonded network by O—H...O and N—H...O hydrogen bonds.     

Redetermination of 6‐amino‐5‐formyl‐1,3‐dimethyluracil monohydrate at 120 K: a polarized molecular structure and two interwoven hydrogen‐bonded frameworks

The title compound [systematic name: 6‐amino‐5‐formyl‐1,3‐dimethylpyrimidine‐2,4(1H,3H)‐dione monohydrate], C₇H₉N₃O₃·H₂O, has been reexamined at 120 K. The improved precision of the intramolecular dimensions provides evidence for a polarized molecular–electronic structure, and the molecular components are linked by one N—H...O and two O—H...O hydrogen bonds into two interwoven three‐dimensional frameworks, which are weakly linked by the longer component of a three‐centre N—H...(O)₂ hydrogen bond.     

Three‐dimensional hydrogen‐bonded framework in bis(melamin‐1‐ium) naphthalene‐1,5‐disulfonate melamine pentahydrate

Crystals of the title compound, 2C₃H₇N₆⁺·C₁₀H₆O₆S₂²⁻·C₃H₆N₆·5H₂O, are built up of neutral 2,4,6‐triamino‐1,3,5‐triazine (melamine), singly protonated melaminium cations, naphthalene‐1,5‐disulfonate dianions and water molecules. Two independent anions lie across centres of inversion in the space group P. The melamine molecules are connected by N—H...N hydrogen bonds into two different one‐dimensional polymers almost parallel to the (010) plane, forming a stacking structure along the b axis. The centrosymmetric naphthalene‐1,5‐disulfonate anions interact with water molecules via O—H...O hydrogen bonds, forming layers parallel to the (001) plane. The cations and anions are connected by N—H...O and O—H...N hydrogen bonds to form a three‐dimensional supramolecular framework.     

Tris(1H‐benzimidazol‐2‐yl­meth­yl)­amine–solvent adducts

The tris­(1H‐benzimidazol‐2‐yl­meth­yl)­amine (ntb) mol­ecule crystallizes in different solvent systems, resulting in two kinds of adduct, namely the monohydrate, C₂₄H₂₁N₇·H₂O or ntb·H₂O, (I), and the acetonitrile–methanol–water (1/0.5/1.5) solvate, C₂₄H₂₁N₇·C₂H₃N·0.5CH₄O·1.5H₂O or ntb·1.5H₂O·0.5MeOH·MeCN, (II). In both cases, ntb adopts a tripodal mode to form hydrogen bonds with a solvent water mol­ecule via two N—H⋯O and one O—H⋯N hydrogen bond. In (I), the ntb·H₂O adduct is further assembled into a two‐dimensional network by N—H⋯N and O—H⋯N hydrogen bonds, while in (II), a double‐stranded one‐dimensional chain structure is assembled via N—H⋯O and O—H⋯O hydrogen bonds, with the acetonitrile mol­ecules located inside the cavities of the chain structure.     

Tris(2,2′‐bipyridine)iron(II) bis(1,1,3,3‐tetracyano‐2‐ethoxypropenide) dihydrate: chiral hydrogen‐bonded frameworks interpenetrate in three dimensions

In the title compound, [Fe(C₁₀H₈N₂)₃](C₉H₅N₄O)₂·2H₂O, the chiral cations lie across twofold rotation axes in the space group C2/c. The anions and the water molecules are linked by two independent O—H...N hydrogen bonds to form C₂²(8) chains, and these chains are linked by the cations via C—H...N and C—H...O hydrogen bonds to form two interpenetrating three‐dimensional frameworks, each of which contains only one enantiomeric form of the chiral cation.     

An unusual conformation of gabapentin (Gpn) in Pyr‐Gpn‐NH‐NH‐Pyr stabilized by weak interactions

The crystal structure of N‐[(1‐{2‐oxo‐2‐[2‐(pyrazin‐2‐ylcarbonyl)hydrazin‐1‐yl]ethyl}cyclohexyl)methyl]pyrazine‐2‐carboxamide monohydrate (Pyr‐Gpn‐NN‐NH‐Pyr·H₂O), C₁₉H₂₃N₇O₃·H₂O, reveals an unusual trans–gauche (tg⁻) conformation for the gabapentin (Gpn) residue around the C^γ—C^β (θ₁) and C^β—C^α (θ₂) bonds. The molecular conformation is stabilized by intramolecular N—H...N hydrogen bonds and weak C—H...O interactions. The packing of the molecules in the crystal lattice shows a network of strong N—H...O and O—H...O hydrogen bonds together with weak C—H...O and π–π inteactions.     

Diaquabis(4‐fluorobenzoato‐κO)bis(nicotinamide‐κN)cobalt(II)

The title compound, [Co(C₇H₄FO₂)₂(C₆H₆N₂O)₂(H₂O)₂], is a three‐dimensional hydrogen‐bonded supramolecular complex. The Co^II ion resides on a centre of symmetry and is in an octahedral coordination environment comprising two pyridyl N atoms, two carboxylate O atoms and two O atoms from water molecules. Intermolecular N—H...O and O—H...O hydrogen bonds produce R₃²(6), R₂²(12) and R₂²(16) rings, which lead to two‐dimensional chains. An extensive three‐dimensional network of C—H...F, N—H...O and O—H...O hydrogen bonds and π–π interactions are responsible for crystal stabilization.     

N‐Acetyl‐l‐tyrosine methyl ester monohydrate at 293 and 123 K

The crystal structure of a protected l ‐tyrosine, namely N‐acetyl‐l ‐tyrosine methyl ester monohydrate, C₁₂H₁₅NO₄·H₂O, was determined at both 293 (2) and 123 (2) K. The structure exhibits a network of O—H...O and N—H...O hydrogen bonds, in which the water molecule plays a crucial role as an acceptor of one and a donor of two hydrogen bonds. Molecules of water and of the protected l ‐tyrosine form hydrogen‐bonded layers perpendicular to [001]. C—H...π interactions are observed in the hydrophobic regions of the structure. The structure is similar to that of N‐acetyl‐l ‐tyrosine ethyl ester monohydrate [Soriano‐García (1993). Acta Cryst. C 49 , 96–97].     

7‐Amino‐2‐methylsulfanyl‐1,2,4‐triazolo[1,5‐a]pyrimidine‐6‐carboxylic acid as the dimethylformamide and water monosolvates at 293 K

The molecular structure of 7‐amino‐2‐methylsulfanyl‐1,2,4‐triazolo[1,5‐a]pyrimidine‐6‐carboxylic acid is reported in two crystal environments, viz. as the dimethylformamide (DMF) monosolvate, C₇H₇N₅O₂S·C₃H₇NO, (I), and as the monohydrate, C₇H₇N₅O₂S·H₂O, (II), both at 293 (2) K. The triazolo[1,5‐a]pyrimidine molecule is of interest with respect to the possible biological activity of its coordination compounds. While the DMF solvate exhibits a layered structural arrangement through N...O hydrogen‐bonding interactions, the monohydrate displays a network of intermolecular O...O and N...O hydrogen bonds assisted by cocrystallized water molecules and weak π–π stacking interactions, leading to a different three‐dimensional supramolecular architecture. Based on results from topological analyses of the electron‐density distribution in X—H...O (X = O, N and C) regions, hydrogen‐bonding energies have been estimated from structural information only, enabling the characterization of hydrogen‐bond graph energies.     

Supramolecular architectures of two novel organic–inorganic hybrid materials containing identical monomeric uranyl units

Two isostructural uranyl complexes have been crystallized with different bipyridyl cations to yield the compounds hemi(4,4′‐bipyridinium) tris(5‐chlorothiophene‐2‐carboxylato)dioxidouranate(VI) monohydrate, (C₁₀H₁₀N₂)_0.5[U(C₅H₂ClO₂S)₃O₂]·H₂O, (I), and hemi[4,4′‐(ethane‐1,2‐diyl)dipyridinium] tris(5‐chlorothiophene‐2‐carboxylato)dioxidouranate(VI) monohydrate, (C₁₂H₁₄N₂)_0.5[U(C₅H₂ClO₂S)₃O₂]·H₂O, (II). In the [UO₂X₃]⁻ complexes (X is 5‐chlorothiophene‐2‐carboxylate), the uranyl O atoms occupy the two axial positions and the equatorial positions are occupied by six O atoms of the three X ions so that each U atom is eight coordinated in a puckered hexagonal–bipyramidal structure. In both compounds, the metal centres are linked by classical O—H...O and N—H...O hydrogen bonds involving the coordinated ligands, the diprotonated organic linker cation (which rests on a centre of inversion at the mid‐point of the central C—C bond) and water molecules. The crystal structures are further stabilized by weak C—H...O and π–π stacking interactions, forming similar three‐dimensional supramolecular architectures, forming a two‐dimensional network parallel to the (100) plane in (I) and a three‐dimensional network in (II).     

A three‐dimensional hydrogen‐bonded framework in 2‐amino‐6‐(N‐methylanilino)pyrimidin‐4(3H)‐one and a ribbon of fused hydrogen‐bonded rings in 2‐amino‐6‐(N‐methylanilino)‐5‐nitropyrimidin‐4(3H)‐one

The molecular dimensions of both 2‐amino‐6‐(N‐methylanilino)pyrimidin‐4(3H)‐one, C₁₁H₁₂N₄O, (I), and 2‐amino‐6‐(N‐methylanilino)‐5‐nitropyrimidin‐4(3H)‐one, C₁₁H₁₁N₅O₃, (II), are consistent with considerable polarization of the molecular–electronic structures. The molecules of (I) are linked into a three‐dimensional framework by a combination of one N—H...N hydrogen bond, two independent N—H...O hydrogen bonds and one C—H...π(arene) hydrogen bond. The molecules of (II) are linked into ribbons containing three types of edge‐fused ring by the combination of two independent three‐centre N—H...(O)₂ hydrogen bonds.     

Two scandium–biuret complexes: [Sc(C2H5N3O2)(H2O)5]Cl3·H2O and [Sc(C2H5N3O2)4](NO3)3

The scandium(III) cations in the structures of pentaaqua(biuret‐κ²O,O′)scandium(III) trichloride monohydrate, [Sc(C₂H₅N₃O₂)(H₂O)₅]Cl₃·H₂O, (I), and tetrakis(biuret‐κ²O,O′)scandium(III) trinitrate, [Sc(C₂H₅N₃O₂)₄](NO₃)₃, (II), are found to adopt very different coordinations with the same biuret ligand. The roles of hydrogen bonding and the counter‐ion in the establishment of the structures are described. In (I), the Sc³⁺ cation adopts a fairly regular pentagonal bipyramidal coordination geometry arising from one O,O′‐bidentate biuret molecule and five water molecules. A dense network of N—H...Cl, O—H...O and O—H...Cl hydrogen bonds help to establish the packing, resulting in dimeric associations of two cations and two water molecules. In (II), the Sc³⁺ cation (site symmetry 2) adopts a slightly squashed square‐antiprismatic geometry arising from four O,O′‐bidentate biuret molecules. A network of N—H...O hydrogen bonds help to establish the packing, which features [010] chains of cations. One of the nitrate ions is disordered about an inversion centre. Both structures form three‐dimensional hydrogen‐bond networks.     

Conformational isomers of the [(5‐methyl‐2‐pyridinio)aminomethylene]diphosphonate dianion and [(5‐methyl‐2‐pyridyl)aminomethylene]diphosphonate trianion in salts with 4‐aminopyridine and ammonia

The crystal structures of two salts, products of the reactions between [(5‐methyl‐2‐pyridyl)aminomethylene]bis(phosphonic acid) and 4‐aminopyridine or ammonia, namely bis(4‐aminopyridinium) hydrogen [(5‐methyl‐2‐pyridinio)aminomethylene]diphosphonate 2.4‐hydrate, 2C₅H₇N₂⁺·C₇H₁₀N₂O₆P₂²⁻·2.4H₂O, (I), and triammonium hydrogen [(5‐methyl‐2‐pyridyl)aminomethylene]diphosphonate monohydrate, 3NH₄⁺·C₇H₉N₂O₆P₂³⁻·H₂O, (II), have been determined. In (I), the Z configuration of the ring N—C and amino N—H bonds of the bisphosphonate dianion with respect to the C_ring—N_amino bond is consistent with that of the parent zwitterion. Removing the H atom from the pyridyl N atom results in the opposite E configuration of the bisphosphonate trianion in (II). Compound (I) exhibits a three‐dimensional hydrogen‐bonded network, in which 4‐aminopyridinium cations and water molecules are joined to ribbons composed of anionic dimers linked by O—H...O and N—H...O hydrogen bonds. The supramolecular motif resulting from a combination of these three interactions is a common phenomenon in crystals of all of the Z‐isomeric zwitterions of 4‐ and 5‐substituted (2‐pyridylaminomethylene)bis(phosphonic acid)s studied to date. In (II), ammonium cations and water molecules are linked to chains of trianions, resulting in the formation of double layers.     

A new [(1R,2R)‐1,2‐diaminocyclohexane]platinum(II) complex: formation by nitrate–acetonitrile ligand exchange

The title compound, cis‐diacetonitrile[(1R,2R)‐1,2‐diaminocyclohexane‐κ²N,N′]platinum(II) dinitrate monohydrate, [Pt(C₂H₃N)₂(C₆H₁₄N₂)](NO₃)₂·H₂O, is a molecular salt of the diaminocyclohexane–Pt complex cation. There are two formula units in the asymmetric unit. Apart from the two charge‐balancing nitrate anions, one neutral molecule of water is present. The components interact via N—H...O and O—H...O hydrogen bonds, resulting in supramolecular chains. The title compound crystallizes only from acetonitrile with residual water, with the acetonitrile coordinating to the molecule of cis‐[Pt(NO₃)₂(DACH)] (DACH is 1,2‐diaminocyclohexane) and the water forming a monohydrate.     

trans‐Diaquabis(nicotinamide‐κN)bis(salicylato‐κO)cobalt(II)

The title compound, [Co(C₇H₅O₃)₂(C₆H₆N₂O)₂(H₂O)₂], forms a three‐dimensional hydrogen‐bonded supramolecular structure. The Co^II ion is in an octahedral coordination environment comprising two pyridyl N atoms, two carboxylate O atoms and two O atoms from water molecules. Intermolecular N—H...O and O—H...O hydrogen bonds produce R₂²(8), R₂²(12) and R₂²(14) rings, which lead to two‐dimensional chains. An extensive three‐dimensional supramolecular network of C—H...O, N—H...O and O—H...O hydrogen bonds and C—H...π interactions is responsible for crystal structure stabilization. This study is an example of the construction of a supramolecular assembly based on hydrogen bonds in mixed‐ligand metal complexes.     

Hexakis[3‐(aminocarbonyl)pyridinium] decavanadate(V) dihydrate

The structure of the title compound, (C₆H₇N₂O)₆[V₁₀O₂₈]·2H₂O, at 120 (2) K has monoclinic (C2/c) symmetry. The asymmetric unit consists of one half‐decavanadate anion of C_i symmetry, three cations and one water molecule. Each water molecule is hydrogen bonded to two decavanadate anions, thus forming a one‐dimensional chain of anions. The three‐dimensional supramolecular structure is formed by a network of N—H...O, O—H...O and C—H...O hydrogen bonds, in which the cations, anions and water molecules are involved, and by nonparallel‐displaced π‐stacking interactions between pyridine rings. As a result of hydrogen bonding, the carboxamide groups of the cations are somewhat twisted from the pyridine ring plane.
