The complex mol­ecules are linked to form a three‐dimensional supra­molecular array by hydrogen‐bonding inter­actions between coordinated/uncoordinated water mol­ecules and the uncoordinated oxalate O atoms of neighboring mol­ecules.     

Diaqua­malonato(1,10‐phenanthro­line)­zinc(II)

In the crystal structure of the title complex, [Zn(C₃H₂O₄)(C₁₂H₈N₂)(H₂O)₂], the Zn^II atom displays a distorted octa­hedral geometry, being coordinated by two N atoms from the 1,10‐phenanthroline ligand, two O atoms from different carboxyl­ate groups of the chelating malonate dianion and two O atoms of cis water mol­ecules. The complex mol­ecules are linked to form a three‐dimensional supramolecular array by both hydrogen‐bonding inter­actions between coordinated water molecules and the uncoordinated carboxyl­ate O atoms of neighboring mol­ecules, and aromatic π–π stacking inter­actions between neighboring phenanthroline rings.

There are intramolecular hydrogen bonds between the coordinated water mol­ecules and the non‐coordinated O atoms of the carboxyl­ate groups. Hydrogen bonds between the amino groups and the carboxyl­ate groups of neighbouring mol­ecules generate a layered hydrogen‐bonded network.

In (I), the mol­ecules are linked through inter­molecular hydrogen bonds, forming a three‐dimensional framework. In (II), the solvent water mol­ecules are linked to the zinc(II) moieties through inter­molecular O—H⋯O and O—H⋯Cl hydrogen bonds. The mol­ecules in (II) are further linked via other inter­molecular hydrogen bonds, forming a three‐dimensional framework.

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.

The coordinated NO₂ groups are almost coplanar with the benzene rings.     

Copper(II) and zinc(II) complexes of pyridine‐2,6‐di­carboxyl­ic acid

The title compounds, bis­(pyridine‐2,6‐di­carboxyl­ato‐N,O,O′)copper(II) monohydrate, [Cu(C₇H₄NO₄)₂]·H₂O, andbis(pyridine‐2,6‐dicarboxylato‐N,O,O′)zinc(II) trihydrate, [Zn(C₇H₄NO₄)₂]·3H₂O, have distorted octahedral geometries about the metal centres. Both metal ions are bonded to four O atoms and two pyridyl‐N atoms from the two terdentate ligand mol­ecules, which are nearly perpendicular to each other. The copper(II) complex has twofold crystallographic symmetry and contains two different ligand mol­ecules, one of which is neutral and another doubly ionized. In contrast, the zinc(II) complex contains two identical singly ionized ligand mol­ecules.

In the crystal structure of the title compound, [Ni(C₆H₆N₂O)₂(H₂O)₂](C₇H₄NO₃S)₂·4H₂O or [Ni(pia)₂(H₂O)₂](sac)₂·4H₂O (pia is picolin­amide or pyridine‐2‐carbox­amide, and sac is the saccharinate anion), the Ni²⁺ cation, located on a centre of symmetry, is coordinated by two symmetry‐related aqua ligands together with a pair of symmetry‐related bidentate pia mol­ecules and exhibits a distorted octahedral environment. The unique unligated sac anion in the asymmetric unit resides on a general position and has a single negative charge. The coordinated water mol­ecules link the sac ions to the metal complex via O—H⋯O hydrogen bonds. In addition, the sac ions are linked to the metal complex via intermolecular π–π interactions between the benzene ring of the sac ion and the pyridine ring of a pia ligand.

The Ba^II ions are bridged by bidentate water mol­ecules and by tridentate and tetra­dentate 2,4‐dichloro­phenoxy­acetate groups, leading to a two‐dimensional layer structure. The crystal structure is further stabilized by hydrogen‐bonding inter­actions within each layer.
