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.     

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.     

3,5‐Dichloro‐4‐cyano­benzoic acid: two polymorphs and the 0.25‐hydrate,exhibiting two‐dimensional ribbons and nets involving hydrogen‐bonding and inter­molecular Cl⋯N inter­actions

Two polymorphs of 3,5‐dichloro‐4‐cyano­benzoic acid, C₈H₃Cl₂NO₂, viz. triclinic and monoclinic, and its 0.25‐hydrate, C₈H₃Cl₂NO₂·0.25H₂O, form crystals in which hydrogen bonding and Cl⋯N inter­actions appear to be equally important to the structures. In all three structures, there are hydrogen‐bonded (COOH) dimers of the well known cyclic type, but in the hydrate there are also dimers in which the two opposing COOH groups are separated by a water mol­ecule. In the monoclinic polymorph and in the hydrate, the inter­molecular inter­actions form two‐dimensional nets inter­woven three at a time. For both the triclinic and monoclinic polymorphs, Z′= 2.     

trans‐[N,N′‐Bis­(salicyl­idene)­cyclo­hexane‐1,2‐diaminato]­nickel(II)–chloro­form (1/1)

In the title complex, trans‐{2,2′‐[cyclo­hexane‐1,2‐diyl­bis­(ni­t­rilo­methyl­idyne)]­di­phenol­ato‐κ⁴O,N,N′,O′}­nickel(II)–chloro­form (1/1), [Ni(C₂₀H₂₀N₂O₂)]·CHCl₃, the Ni atom has a square‐planar geometry, slightly tetrahedrally distorted. The Ni—N and Ni—O bonding distances are within the expected ranges for Ni–Schiff base derivatives. The di­imine bridge has a gauche conformation with the cyclo­hexyl ring almost coplanar with the NiN₂O₂ plane. The complex mol­ecules pack in dimers with an Ni?Ni distance of 3.59 (1) Å and form a three‐dimensional structure displaying a herring‐bone configuration. Channels are occupied by solvent mol­ecules, which are involved in C—H?O hydrogen bonds with the ligand O atoms.     

Solvated and solvent‐free forms of N,N′‐di­thio­diphthal­imide

N,N′‐Di­thio­diphthal­imide, C₁₆H₈N₂O₄S₂, crystallizes from ethyl acetate with two independent mol­ecules in the asymmetric unit, in which the N—S—S—N torsion angles are ?83.59 (19) and 92.9 (2)°. The mol­ecules are linked by C—H?O hydrogen bonds and aromatic π–π‐stacking interactions into a three‐dimensional framework. When crystallized from either di­chloro­methane or ethanol, solvates are formed in which the mol­ecules of the title compound lie across twofold rotation axes in space group C2/c, with N—S—S—N torsion angles of 93.54 (7) and 96.14 (11)°. There are no hydrogen bonds in these solvates, but the mol­ecules are linked by aromatic π–π‐stacking interactions into chains, between which there are continuous channels. Disordered solvent mol­ecules occupy these channels, which account for ca 20% of the unit‐cell volume.     

A dicationic gallium–oxo–hydroxide cage compound

The crystal structure of hexa‐μ‐hydroxo‐do­deca­methylocta‐μ₃‐oxo‐do­deca­gallium(III) bis­[tetra­kis­(penta­fluoro­phenyl)­borate(III)] chloro­benzene disolvate dihydrate, [Ga₁₂(CH₃)₁₂(μ₃‐O)₈(μ‐OH)₆](C₂₄F₂₀B)₂·2C₆H₅Cl·2H₂O, is reported. The gallium–oxo–hydroxide dication is located on an inversion center and adopts a cage structure composed of 12 fused Ga₃O₃ rings and is associated with the hydrate mol­ecules and the [B(C₆F₅)₄]^? anions through hydrogen bonds and one O—H?π‐ring interaction. Disordered chloro­benzene solvent mol­ecules are also present in the crystal structure.     

Three 2‐amino­purine derivatives

The structure of 2‐amino‐6‐chloro­purine, C₅H₄ClN₅, (I), comprises a flat mol­ecule, with all possible strong hydrogen‐bond donors and acceptors involved in the hydrogen‐bonding network. The structures of 2‐amino‐6‐(4‐chloro­phenylsulfanyl)­purine hemihydrate, C₁₁H₈ClN₅S·0.5H₂O, (II), and 2‐amino‐6‐(4‐methylphenylsulfanyl)purine 0.33‐hydrate, C₁₂H₁₁N₅S·0.33H₂O, (III), have two and three unique mol­ecules, respectively, and one water mol­ecule in their asymmetric units. Both (II) and (III) exhibit elaborate hydrogen‐bonding networks that involve the S (for both) and Cl [for (II)] atoms in addition to the expected strong hydrogen‐bonding sites. Both structures also have offset‐stacking formations of the phenyl and purine rings.     

(4R,4aR,6S,7S,7aS)‐6‐Hydro­xy‐7‐hy­droxy­methyl‐4‐methyl­per­hydro­cyclo­penta­[c]­pyran‐1‐one chloro­form solvate from Valeriana laxiflora

The structure of an iridolactone isolated from Valeriana laxiflora was established as (4R,4aR,6S,7S,7aS)‐6‐hydroxy‐7‐hydroxy­methyl‐4‐methyl­per­hydro­cyclo­penta­[c]­pyran‐1‐one chloro­form solvate, C₁₀H₁₆O₄·CHCl₃. The two rings are cis‐fused. The δ‐lactone ring adopts a slightly twisted half‐chair conformation with approximate planarity of the lactone group and the cyclo­pentane ring adopts an envelope conformation. The hydroxy group, the hydroxymethyl group and the methyl group all have β orientations. The absolute configuration was determined using anomalous dispersion data enhanced by the adventitious inclusion of a chloro­form solvent mol­ecule. Hydro­gen bonding, crystal packing and ring conformations are discussed in detail.     

Dihydro[2.2.2]cryptand di‐μ‐hydroxo‐bis[bis(nitrato‐κ2O,O′)dioxouranium(VI)] monohydrate

In the title dinuclear uranyl complex, (C₁₈H₃₈N₂O₆)[(UO₂)₂(NO₃)₄(OH)₂]·H₂O, each pair of uranyl ions in the two independent centrosymmetric dianionic dimers is bridged by the two hydroxide ions, with the nitrate ions ensuring equatorial hexagonal coordination. The di­hydro[2.2.2]­cryptand (4,7,13,16,21,24‐hexaoxa‐1,10‐diazabicyclo[8.8.8]­hexa­cosane) dication presents an `in–in' conformation (endo protonation) and it is hydrogen bonded to the hydroxide ions, either directly or via a water mol­ecule, resulting in the formation of linear hydrogen‐bonded polymers.     

4‐(4‐Chloro­benzyl­ideneamino)‐1,5‐dimethyl‐2‐phenyl‐1H‐pyrazol‐3(2H)‐one and 4‐(2‐chloro­benzyl­idene­amino)‐1,5‐dimethyl‐2‐phenyl‐1H‐pyrazol‐3(2H)‐one

The two title compounds, both with formula C₁₈H₁₆ClN₃O, are structurally similar Schiff bases derived from the condensation of 4‐chloro­benzaldehyde or 2‐chloro­benzaldehyde with 4‐amino­anti­pyrine in methanol solution. As expected, both compounds adopt trans configurations about the central C=N bonds. In the crystal structure of the 4‐chloro analogue, mol­ecules are linked through weak C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds, forming chains running along the a axis. In the crystal structure of the 2‐chloro analogue, mol­ecules are linked through weak C—H⋯O and C—H⋯Cl hydrogen bonds, forming layers parallel to the ab plane.     

Solvates of zafirlukast

The crystal structures of three solvates of zafirlukast [systematic name: cyclopentyl N‐{1‐methyl‐3‐[2‐methyl‐4‐(o‐tolylsulfonylaminocarbonyl)benzyl]‐1H‐indol‐5‐yl}carbamate], viz. the monohydrate, C₃₁H₃₃N₃O₆S·H₂O, (I), the methanol solvate, C₃₁H₃₃N₃O₆S·CH₃OH, (II), and the ethanol solvate, C₃₁H₃₃N₃O₆S·C₂H₅OH, (III), have been determined by single‐crystal X‐ray diffraction analysis. All three compounds crystallize in the monoclinic crystal system. Zafirlukast adopts a similar Z‐shaped conformation in all three solvates. The methanol and ethanol solvates are isostructural. The packing of the zafirlukast mol­ecules in all three crystal structures is similar and is expressed by hydrogen‐bonded mol­ecules that are related by translation, along (101) in (I) and along the b axis in (II) and (III). The methanol and ethanol solvent mol­ecules are hydrogen bonded to two mol­ecules of zafirlukast. The water mol­ecule, on the other hand, acts as a connector via hydrogen bonds between three mol­ecules of zafirlukast. The solvent mol­ecules are not released at temperatures below the melting points of the solvates.     

The crystal packing of 4,7‐dichloro‐ and 4,7‐dibromobenzo[c]furazan 1‐oxide

The molecular structures of 4,7‐di­chloro­benzo­[c]­fur­azan 1‐­oxide, C₆H₂Cl₂N₂O₂, (I), and 4,7‐di­bromo­benzo­[c]­fur­azan 1‐oxide, C₆H₂Br₂N₂O₂, (II), are normal. Compound (I) occurs in two polymorphic forms. One polymorph contains one mol­ecule in the asymmetric unit, organized into two‐dimensional sheets involving intermolecular N?Cl and O?Cl inter­actions. The second polymorph has three mol­ecules in the asymmetric unit, organized into two crystallographically different two‐dimensional sheets with similar interactions. Compound (II) is isomorphous with the second polymorph of (I). The three two‐dimensional sheets in the two polymorphs comprise a set of three two‐dimensional polymorphic arrangements.     

5,11,17,23‐Tetra‐tert‐butyl‐25,27‐bis(carboxy­methoxy)‐26,28‐bis(2‐methoxy­ethoxy)calix­[4]­arene–methanol (1/1)

In the methanol solvate crystal form of the title diacid diglycol calixarene, C₅₄H₇₂O₁₀·CH₄O, two calixarene mol­ecules (in the cone conformation) are dimerized via two methanol mol­ecules hydrogen bonded to the carboxyl groups. An intramolecular bond is also formed between a carboxylic proton and an ether O atom. This result is relevant to the interpretation of the acidic and complexation properties of calixarene carboxylic acids.     

4‐(4‐Hydro­xy­benzyl­idene­amino)‐4H‐1,2,4‐triazole hemihydrate

In the title compound, 4‐(4H‐1,2,4‐triazol‐4‐yl­imino­methyl)­phenol hemi­hydrate, C₉H₈N₄O·0.5H₂O or (I)·0.5H₂O, mol­ecules of (I) are arranged as layers running along the b axis through intermolecular O—H?N and C—H?O hydrogen bonds. These layers are stabilized by hydrogen‐bonded water mol­ecules to form three‐dimensional networks.     

Two new polymorphs of di­phenyl(4‐pyridyl)­methyl methacryl­ate

The title compound (D4PyMA), C₂₂H₁₉NO₂, exhibits polymorphism after crystallization by slow evaporation from a binary mixture of chloro­form and hexane. Long needle‐like crystals have an orthorhombic structure (space group Fdd2), with one mol­ecule in the asymmetric unit, while small tablet‐like crystals exhibit a monoclinic crystal structure (space group P2₁/n), in which two independent but chemically identical mol­ecules comprise the asymmetric unit. The bond lengths and angles are normal, while the torsion angles around the –C—O– bond linking the di­phenyl(4‐pyridyl)methyl and methacryl­ate groups show the flexibility of the mol­ecule by way of packing effects. The two polymorphs both contain weak C—H⋯π and C—H⋯O/N contacts but have different conformations.     

Solvent–metal interactions in bis[1,2‐dicarba‐closo‐dodecaboran(12)‐1‐yl]mercury(II) dichloromethane solvate and bis[1,12‐dicarba‐closo‐dodecaboran(12)‐1‐yl]mercury(II) tetrahydrofuran solvate

The title compounds, bis­[1,2‐dicarba‐closo‐dodecaboran(12)‐1‐yl]­mercury(II) di­chloro­methane solvate, [Hg(C₂B₁₀H₁₁)₂]·CH₂Cl₂, (I), and bis­[1,12‐dicarba‐closo‐dodecaboran(12)‐1‐yl]­mercury(II) tetra­hydro­furan solvate, [Hg(C₂B₁₀H₁₁)₂]·C₄H₈O, (II), were prepared in excellent yields using a robust synthetic procedure involving the reaction of HgCl₂ with the appropriate monoli­thiocarborane. X‐Ray analysis of the products revealed strong interactions between the Hg atoms in both complexes and the respective lattice solvent. The distances between the Hg^II centers and the Cl atoms of the dichloromethane solvent molecule in the ortho‐carborane derivative, (I), and the O atom of the tetra­hydro­furan molecule in the para‐carborane complex, (II), are shorter than the sums of the van der Waals radii for Hg and Cl (3.53 Å), and Hg and O (3.13 Å), respectively, indicating moderately strong interactions. There are two crystallographically independent mol­ecules in the asymmetric unit of both compounds, which, in each case, are related by differing relative positions of the cages.     

trans‐Di­aqua­bis(5‐carboxy‐1H‐imidazole‐4‐carboxyl­ato‐κ2N3,O4)­cobalt(II) 4,4′‐bi­pyridine solvate

In the title compound, [Co(C₅H₃N₂O₄)₂(H₂O)₂]·C₁₀H₈N₂, the Co atom is trans‐coordinated by two pairs of N and O atoms from two monoanionic 4,5‐di­carboxy­imidazole ligands, and by two O atoms from two coordinated water mol­ecules, in a distorted octahedral geometry. The 4,4′‐bi­pyridine solvent molecule is not involved in coordination but is linked by an N—H⋯N hydrogen bond to the neutral [Co(C₅H₃N₂O₄)₂(H₂O)₂] mol­ecule. Both mol­ecules are located on inversion centers. The crystal packing is stabilized by N—H⋯N and O—H⋯O hydrogen bonds, which produce a three‐dimensional hydrogen‐bonded network. Offset π–π stacking interactions between the pyridine rings of adjacent 4,4′‐bi­pyridine molecules were observed, with a face‐to‐face distance of 3.345 (1) Å.     

Bis{μ‐N‐[2‐(η5‐cyclopentadienyl)ethyl]‐4‐toluenesulfonamido‐N,O:O′}bis[bis(trifluoromethanesulfonato‐O)titanium(II)] bis(dichloromethane) solvate

The title compound, [Ti₂(CF₃O₃S)₄(C₁₄H₁₅NO₂S)₂]·2CH₂Cl₂, consists of unique centrosymmetric dimers, with an eight‐membered ring derived from the monomer subunits by formation of two Ti—(N,O)—S—O head‐to‐tail sequences around a crystallographic inversion centre, and two ordered di­chloro­methane solvate mol­ecules. The Ti ion has distorted octahedral coordination, through the N atom and one O atom of one p‐toluene­sulfon­amido group linked by an ethyl group to the bound cyclo­penta­diene moiety, one O atom from the other p‐toluene­sulfon­amido group and two singly bound tri­fluoro­methanesulfonates moieties which are coordinated in pseudo‐cis positions. Both Ti—O(sulfonamido) bond lengths [2.149 (3) and 2.388 (3) Å] are considered bonding interactions.     

(Z)‐7‐Chloro‐3‐[(3‐chloro­phenyl)­methyl­idene]‐4‐p‐tosyl‐3,4‐di­hydro‐2H‐1,4‐benzoxazine

In the title compound, C₂₂H₁₇Cl₂NO₃S, the mol­ecule is a substituted 3,4‐di­hydro‐2H‐1,4‐benzoxazine compound which has three phenyl rings which are essentially planar. The 3,4‐di­hydro‐2H‐oxazine part of the mol­ecule is fused to the benzo ring and has a half‐boat conformation; the dihedral angle between the planar part of the oxazine ring and the benzo ring is 10.2 (2)°. The (3‐chloro­phenyl)­methyl­idene substituent has a Z configuration in relation to the ring N atom of the oxazine moiety. Interestingly, the p‐toluenesulfonyl (p‐tosyl) substituent on the ring N atom protrudes away from the 3‐­chloro­phenyl substituent thus avoiding any steric interaction.     

6‐(2‐Chloro­acetamido)­hexa­noic acid

Crystals of the title compound, C₈H₁₄ClNO₃, belong to the space group Cc and are characterized by an asymmetric unit containing two mol­ecules, both with a twisted conformation. The mol­ecular packing is stabilized by N—H⋯O=C hydrogen bonds between the amide groups of mol­ecules with the same conformation. In addition, hydrogen‐bonded cyclic carboxylic acid dimers are established between mol­ecules with a different conformation. The ClCH₂—CONH bond has a cis conformation in order to favour an intra­molecular Cl⋯HN electrostatic inter­action. Weak intra‐ and inter­molecular CH₂⋯O=C inter­actions are also present.
