Ammonium N‐(6‐amino‐3,4‐di­hydro‐3‐methyl‐5‐nitro­so‐4‐oxopyrimidin‐2‐yl)­glycinate monohydrate forms hydrogen‐bonded bilayers

In the title compound, NH₄⁺·C₇H₈N₅O₄⁻·H₂O, the independent components are linked into bilayers by an extensive series of two‐centre N—H⃛O hydrogen bonds [H⃛O = 1.85–1.96 Å, N⃛O = 2.776 (2)–2.840 (2) Å and N—H⃛O = 149–172°], and by asymmetric three‐centre N—H⃛(O)₂, O—H⃛(N,O) and O—H⃛(O)₂ hydrogen bonds.     

Bis­[N‐(6‐amino‐3,4‐di­hydro‐3‐methyl‐5‐nitro­so‐4‐oxopyrimidin‐2‐yl)­glycyl­glycinato]­tri­aqua­calcium: ­coordination polymer chains linked by hydrogen bonds

In the title compound, [Ca(C₉H₁₁N₆O₅)₂(H₂O)₃], the Ca atom lies on a twofold rotation axis in C2/c and the three water mol­ecules are all disordered, each over two sites having equal occupancy. The anion acts as a bridging ligand between pairs of Ca sites on the same twofold axis, thus forming a one‐dimensional coordination polymer, with the chains lying along the twofold axes. These chains are linked by multiple O—H?O and N—H?O hydrogen bonds into a single three‐dimensional framework.

The title compound, [Y(C₂H₆OS)₂(H₂O)₆]Cl₃, contains the cation [Y(H₂O)₆{(CH₃)₂SO}₂]³⁺ with a distorted square antiprismatic geometry of the eight coordinated O atoms. The six water mol­ecules are coordinated with an average Y—O distance of 2.38 (2) Å, ranging from 2.360 (3) to 2.404 (3) Å. Each water mol­ecule forms two hydrogen bonds to the chloride anions with O—Cl distances ranging from 3.068 (4) to 3.422 (4) Å. The two di­methyl­ sulfoxide ligands, situated in the cis position with the O—Y—O angle equal to 83.22 (11)°, have Y—O distances of 2.269 (3) and 2.278 (3) Å.     

trans‐Bis­[2,3‐di­amino‐(R,S)‐propion­ato‐N,N′]­di­aqua­copper(II) dihydrate

The title copper complex, [Cu(dl ‐DAP)₂(H₂O)₂]·2H₂O or [Cu(C₃H₇N₂O₂)₂(H₂O)₂]·2H₂O, prepared from the non‐protein amino acid dl ‐2,3‐di­amino­propionic acid (dl ‐HDAP), has a center of symmetry and a distorted octahedral coordination, with four N atoms in equatorial positions and two water mol­ecules in apical sites.

Hemi[hexa­aqua­magnesium(II)] (μ‐2,6‐bis{[bis­(carboxyl­ato­methyl)­amino]­methyl}‐4‐chloro­phenolato)­bis­[di­aqua­magnesium(II)] decahydrate

The crystal structure of the title compound, [Mg(H₂O)₆]_0.5[Mg₂(C₁₆H₁₄ClN₂O₉)(H₂O)₄]·10H₂O, shows that this bi­nuclear complex consists of two Mg centres in distorted octahedral geometry, joined by an oxo bridge which is a derivative of the deprotoned hydroxy group of the phenolate in the ligand mol­ecule. In the anion, the coordination sphere of each Mg^II ion is completed by two carboxyl­ates, a tertiary N atom and two water mol­ecules. The inner coordination spheres for the Mg^II ions are very similar, both in ligand sets and in geometry. Each unit of the binuclear complex has one negative charge neutralized by a neighbouring hydrated cation, [Mg(H₂O)₆]²⁺, in which the Mg atom lies on an inversion centre. In each cell, there are 34 water mol­ecules and most of them participate in the formation of hydrogen bonds, which contribute greatly to the stability of the whole structure.     

Bis(μ‐ethyl pyridine‐2,6‐di­carboxyl­ato)­bis­[di­aqua­chloro­cadmium(II)] dihydrate

The reaction of cadmium chloride with pyridine‐2,6‐di­carboxylic acid (PDA) and 98% H₂SO₄ in ethanol led to the formation of the title compound, bis­[μ‐6‐(ethoxy­carbonyl)­pyridine‐2‐carboxyl­ato]‐1:2κ⁴O⁶,N,O²:O²;1:2κ⁴O²:O²,N,O⁶‐bis­[di­aqua­chloro­cadmium(II)] dihydrate, [Cd₂(C₉H₈NO₄)₂Cl₂(H₂O)₄]·2H₂O. PDA is esterified to monoethyl ­pyridine‐2,6‐di­carboxyl­ate (MEPD) by the catalysis of H₂SO₄ during the reaction. The dinuclear Cd^II complex lies about an inversion centre and the unique Cd atom has a pentagonal–bipyramidal geometry. The two Cd atoms are bridged by two carboxyl­ate O atoms, forming a planar Cd₂O₂ unit. Stair‐like chains are formed via O—H⋯Cl hydrogen bonds and these are further arranged into two‐dimensional layers via hydrogen bonds involving solvate water mol­ecules.     

A host–guest complex of di­aqua­bis­[1‐hydroxy‐2(1H)‐pyridine­thionato‐O,S]­magnesium(II) and 2,2′‐di­thio­bis­(pyridine N‐oxide)

The title compound, [Mg(C₅H₄NOS)₂(H₂O)₂]·C₁₀H₈N₂O₂S₂, is a two‐component host–guest material. The 2,2′‐di­thio­bis(pyridine N‐oxide) molecule has crystallographic twofold symmetry. The metal complex lies on an inversion centre and associates via C—H?S interactions into chains which thread the 2,2′‐di­thio­bis­(pyridine N‐oxide) lattice in perpendicular directions. Hydro­gen bonds exist between the water mol­ecules of the di­aqua­magnesium units and the N—O groups of the host lattice.     

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.     

Di­aqua­bis­(di­methyl sulfoxide)­bis(3,5‐di­nitro­benzoato)­zinc(II) and the synthesis of the Cu,Ni and Co analogs

In order to model processes of chemisorption in organic salts formed between di­nitro­benzoic acids (DNBH) and secondary amines (R₂NH), a series of compounds of composition [M^II(3,5‐DNB)₂(DMSO)₂(H₂O)₂] (where M^II is Zn, Cu, Ni or Co, 3,5‐DNB is the 3,5‐di­nitro­benzoate ion, and DMSO is di­methyl sulfoxide) have been prepared. In di­aqua­bis­(di­methyl sulf­oxide)­bis(3,5‐DNB)­zinc(II), [Zn(C₇H₃N₂O₆)₂(C₂H₆OS)₂(H₂O)₂], the 3,5‐DNB ions and mol­ecules of DMSO are monodentate ligands that are coordinated to the Zn atom through their O atoms. These ligands, together with two mol­ecules of water, form a slightly distorted octahedral coordination environment for the Zn atom, which lies on a center of symmetry.     

Bis[bis­(3‐phenyl­pyrazol‐1‐yl)­(pyrazol‐1‐yl)­methane]­copper(II) bis­(per­chlor­ate) acetonitrile disolvate

The title copper(II) complex, [Cu(C₂₂H₁₈N₆)₂](ClO₄)₂·2C₂H₃N, comprises two neutral substituted tris­(pyrazol‐1‐yl)­methane ligands bonded to a central Cu^II ion, which is positioned on a crystallographic inversion center. Six Cu—N bonds are arranged in a distorted octa­hedral fashion. The unsubstituted pyrazole rings on each ligand are oriented trans with respect to each other, inter­digitated with the two 3‐phenyl­pyrazole rings of the other ligand.     

N‐Meth­yl‐N‐(2‐nitro­phen­yl)nitramine and N‐meth­yl‐N‐(3‐nitro­phen­yl)­nitramine

The structures of the two title isomeric compounds (systematic names: N‐meth­yl‐N,2‐dinitro­aniline and N‐meth­yl‐N,3‐di­nitro­aniline, both C₇H₇N₃O₄) are slightly different because they exhibit different steric hindrances and hydrogen‐bonding environments. The aromatic rings are planar. The –N(Me)NO₂ and –NO₂ groups are not coplanar with the rings. Comparison of the geometric parameters of the ortho, meta and para isomers together with those of N‐meth­yl‐N‐phenyl­nitramine suggests that the position of the nitro group has a strong influence on the aromatic ring distortion. The crystal packing is stabilized by weak C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds to the nitramine group.

In the title compound, polymeric potassium N‐(6‐amino‐3,4‐di­hydro‐3‐methyl‐5‐nitro­so‐4‐oxopyrimidin‐2‐yl)­glycyl­gly­cinate hydrate, (K⁺·C₉H₁₁N₆O₅^?·H₂O)_n, the hexacoordinate K⁺ cation is linked to five different anions as well as to the water mol­ecule, with K—O distances in the range 2.617 (2)–2.850 (2) Å. Four of the O atoms in each anion coordinate to K centres, one of them acting as a bridging ligand, leading to the formation of nearly square centrosymmetric K₂O₂ rings. The structure is analysed in terms of (010) metal–ligand sheets linked by [010] chains of fused rings.

The title compound, whose structure has been redetermined at 120 K, contains almost centrosymmetric trans‐[Zn(C₅H₅N₄O₃)₂(H₂O)₂]·2H₂O units, together with two uncoordinated water mol­ecules. An extensive series of O—H⃛O, O—H⃛N and N—H⃛O hydrogen bonds gives rise to a three‐dimensional framework structure.

The title compound, [Ni(NCS)₂(C₅H₄N₄O)₂(H₂O)₂], crystallizes in the triclinic space group P. The molecular unit contains two neutral mol­ecules of 4,5‐di­hydro‐1,2,4‐triazolo[1,5‐a]­pyrimidin‐5‐one (5HtpO) coordinated through the N atom in position 3, two thio­cyanate ligands coordinated through their N atoms and two water mol­ecules completing an octahedral environment around the Ni^II ion, which lies on a centre of inversion. The structure is stabilized by hydrogen bonding. Distances in the coordination sphere are Ni—N3(5HtpO) 2.132 (2), Ni—O(water) 2.085 (2) and Ni—N(thio­cyanato) 2.040 (2) Å.

The structure consists of a neutral centrosymmetric binuclear unit in which the ox­amide ligand has a trans geometry, is fully deprotonated and acts in a bis‐tridentate fashion.     

Carbonyl­[di­hydro­bis­(pyrazol‐1‐yl‐κN2)­borato]­hydrido­bis­(tri‐p‐tolyl­phosphine‐κP)­ruthenium(II)

The title compound, [RuH(C₆H₈BN₄)(C₂₁H₂₁P)₂(CO)], possesses two trans‐disposed tri‐p‐tolyl­phosphines in axial positions and the remaining ligands in equatorial positions. The overall geometry of the Ru^II ion is a distorted octahedral structure. The P—Ru—P axis deviates from linearity by about 13°. This distortion arises mainly from the steric congestion between the bulky phosphine moieties and the tetrahedral di­hydro­bis­(pyrazol‐1‐yl)­borate ligands.

In ethyl N‐[2‐(hydroxy­acetyl)phenyl]carbamate, C₁₁H₁₃NO₄, all of the non‐H atoms lie on a mirror plane in the space group Pnma; the mol­ecules are linked into simple chains by a single C—H⋯O hydrogen bond. The mol­ecules of ethyl N‐[2‐(hydroxy­acetyl)‐4‐iodo­phenyl]carbamate, C₁₁H₁₂INO₄, are linked into sheets by a combination of O—H⋯I and C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds and a dipolar I⋯O contact. Ethyl N‐­[2‐(hydroxy­acetyl)‐4‐methyl­phenyl]carbamate, C₁₂H₁₅NO₄, crystallizes with Z′ = 2 in the space group P; pairs of mol­ecules are weakly linked by an O—H⋯O hydrogen bond and these aggregates are linked into chains by two independent aromatic π–π stacking inter­actions.     

N‐tert‐Butyl‐N′‐(5,7‐di­methyl‐1,8‐naphthyridin‐2‐yl)­urea

In the title compound, [Co(C₂H₈N₂)₃]₂[Ru₂(C₂H₄O₇P₂)₂Cl₂]Cl·3H₂O, the building unit contains two crystallographically independent dinuclear [Ru₂(hedp)₂Cl₂]⁵⁻ anions, where hedp [viz. (1‐hydroxy­ethyl­idene)­di­phospho­nate] serves as a bis‐chelating bridging ligand, two types of [Co(en)₃]³⁺ cations, one uncoordinated Cl⁻ anion and five water mol­ecules of crystallization. The [Ru₂(hedp)₂Cl₂]⁵⁻ anions are connected to one another, forming one‐dimensional chains along the a axis. The [Co(en)₃]³⁺ cations are located between these chains and lie across inversion centres. An extensive series of hydrogen bonds lead to the formation of a three‐dimensional supramol­ecular network structure, with channels generated along the [100] direction. The uncoordinated water mol­ecules and Cl⁻ anions reside in these channels.
