Selected Abstracts1,1,-Fc(4-C6H4CO2Et)2 and its unusual salt derivative with Z, = 5, catena -[Na+]2[1,1,-Fc(4-C6H4CO2,)2]·0.6H2O [1,1,-Fc = (,5 -(C5H4)2Fe]ACTA CRYSTALLOGRAPHICA SECTION B, Issue 2 2010John F. Gallagher The neutral diethyl 4,4,-(ferrocene-1,1,-diyl)dibenzoate, Fe[,5 -(C5H4)(4-C6H4CO2Et)]2 (I), yields (II) (following base hydrolysis) as the unusual complex salt poly[disodium bis[diethyl 4,4,-(ferrocene-1,1,-diyl)dibenzoate] 0.6-hydrate] or [Na+]2[Fe{,5 -(C5H4)-4-C6H4CO}2]·0.6H2O with Z, = 5. Compound (I) crystallizes in the triclinic system, space group , with two molecules having similar geometry in the asymmetric unit (Z, = 2). The salt complex (II) crystallizes in the orthorhombic system, space group Pbca, with the asymmetric unit comprising poly[decasodium pentakis[diethyl 4,4,-(ferrocene-1,1,-diyl)dibenzoate] trihydrate] or [Na+]10[Fe{,5 -(C5H4)-4-C6H4CO}2]5·3H2O. The five independent 1,1,-Fc[(4-C6H4CO2),]2 dianions stack in an offset ladder (stepped) arrangement with the ten benzoates mutually oriented cisoid towards and bonded to a central layer comprising the ten Na+ ions and three water molecules [1,1,-Fc = ,5 -(C5H4)2Fe]. The five dianions differ in the cisoid orientations of their pendant benzoate groups, with four having their ,C6H4, groups mutually oriented at interplanar angles from 0.6,(3) to 3.2,(3)° (as ,..., stacked C6 rings) and interacting principally with Na+ ions. The fifth dianion is distorted and opens up to an unprecedented ,C6H4, interplanar angle of 18.6,(3)° through bending of the two 4-C6H4CO2 groups and with several ionic interactions involving the three water molecules (arranged as one-dimensional zigzag chains in the lattice). Overall packing comprises two-dimensional layers of Na+ cations coordinated mainly by the carboxylate O atoms, and one-dimensional water chains. The non-polar Fc(C6H4)2 groups are arranged perpendicular to the layers and mutually interlock through a series of efficient C,H..., stacking contacts in a herringbone fashion to produce an overall segregation of polar and non-polar entities. [source] Probing the shapes of chiral bis-(o -naphthalimidobenzoyl) systems using X-ray and circular dichroism methodsACTA CRYSTALLOGRAPHICA SECTION B, Issue 1 2009Urszula Rychlewska CD (circular dichroism) and X-ray investigations have been carried out in order to identify the prevalent conformations and define the forces that determine the molecular and supramolecular organization of the alkyl-bridged bichromophoric [NAB, ortho -(1,8-naphthalimido)benzoyl] units, each consisting of the benzoyl substituted in the ortho position with the 1,8-naphthalimide group. The results reveal that NAB bichromophores incorporated into the same molecule exist in a variety of conformation/helicity combinations. The molecular structures are largely stabilized by local 1,3-CH/CO dipole,dipole interactions, while the crystal packing besides dispersive H...H interactions is mostly governed by multiple C,H...O(=C) and C,H..., interactions. The relatively small contribution of ,..., interactions comes from a pairwise off-face stacking between naphthalimide rings or from pairwise carbonyl..., interactions. All these types of intermolecular interactions have been summarized quantitatively by means of a Hirshfeld surface analysis. [source] Monitoring structural transformations in crystals.ACTA CRYSTALLOGRAPHICA SECTION B, Issue 3 2008Variations in crystal and molecular structures, brought about by the intramolecular [4,+,4] photocycloaddition of bi(anthracene-9,10-dimethylene), were monitored using X-ray diffraction. The cell volume increased by 0.8% until the reaction was ca 40% complete, and afterwards decreased by 1.6% during the remainder of the photoreaction. The changes of the a and b lattice parameters were correlated with the changes of the molecular shape and packing. The distance between the directly reacting C atoms varied in a manner not observed for other photochemical reactions in crystals. It was constant until ca 20% photoreaction progress, then decreased, and later stabilized from ca 40% photoreaction progress. This phenomenon was explained by interplay between stress resulting from the presence of product molecules and the rigidity of reactant molecules. Changes of the orientation of molecules during the photoreaction were smaller than in the case of other monitored photochemical reactions in crystals owing to similarities in the shape and packing of reactant and product molecules. Weak C,H..., hydrogen bonds exist among reactant molecules in the pure reactant and partly reacted crystals.

L1, prepared by grinding picolinaldehyde with 2,3-diamino-3-isocyanoacrylonitrile in a 1:1 molar ratio, crystallized as a monohydrate. L2 was prepared by grinding picolinaldehyde with 2,3-diamino-3-isocyanoacrylonitrile in a 2:1 molar ratio. By varying the conditions of crystallization it was possible to obtain two polymorphs, viz. L2-I and L2-II; both crystallized in the monoclinic space group P21/c. They differ in the orientation of one pyridine ring with respect to the plane of the imidazole ring. In L2-I, this ring is oriented towards and above the imidazole ring, while in L2-II it is rotated away from and below the imidazole ring. In all three molecules, there is a short intramolecular N,H...N contact inherent to the planarity of the systems. In L1·H2O, this involves an amino H atom and the C=N N atom, while in L2 it involves an amino H atom and an imidazole N atom. In the crystal structure of L1·H2O, there are N,H...O and O,H...O intermolecular hydrogen bonds which link the molecules to form two-dimensional networks which stack along [001]. These networks are further linked via intermolecular N,H...N(cyano) hydrogen bonds to form an extended three-dimensional network. In the crystal structure of L2-I, symmetry-related molecules are linked via N,H...N hydrogen bonds, leading to the formation of dimers centred about inversion centres. These dimers are further linked via N,H...O hydrogen bonds involving the amide group, also centred about inversion centres, to form a one-dimensional arrangement propagating in [100]. In the crystal structure of L2-II, the presence of intermolecular N,H...O hydrogen bonds involving the amide group results in the formation of dimers centred about inversion centres. These are linked via N,H...N hydrogen bonds involving the second amide H atom and the cyano N atom, to form two-dimensional networks in the bc plane. In L2-I and L2-II, C,H..., and ,,, interactions are also present.

In the molecule, the carboxylate groups of two aminobenzoate ligands bridge the central and exocyclic Sn atoms, while two further aminobenzoate ligands have highly asymmetric bidentate chelation to the exocyclic Sn atoms plus long O...Sn interactions with the central Sn atoms. Each Sn atom is also coordinated by two pendant n -butyl ligands, which extend roughly perpendicular to the plane of the Sn4O10 core. Only one of the four unique hydrogen-bond donor sites is involved in a classic N,H...O hydrogen bond, and the resulting supramolecular hydrogen-bonded structure is an extended two-dimensional network which lies parallel to the (100) plane and consists of a checkerboard pattern of four-connected molecular cores acting as nodes.

The asymmetric unit of (I) contains one half of the p -phenylenediamine molecule lying about an inversion centre and two halves of water molecules, one lying on a mirror plane and the other lying across a mirror plane. In (II), the asymmetric unit consists of one molecule in a general position and two half molecules located around inversion centres. In both structures, the p -phenylenediamine molecules are arranged in layers stabilized by N,H..., interactions. The diamine layers in (I) are isostructural with half of the layers in (II). On dehydration, crystals of (I) transform to (II). Comparison of their crystal structures suggests the most plausible mechanism of the transformation process which requires, in addition to translational motion of the diamine molecules, in-plane rotation of every fourth p -phenylenediamine molecule by ca 60°. A search of the Cambridge Structural Database shows that the formation of hydrates by aromatic amines should be considered exceptional.

A combination of two-centre N,H...O and C,H...O hydrogen bonds links the molecules of O -ethyl N -(4-methylbenzoyl)thiocarbamate, C11H13NO2S, into chains of rings, which are linked into sheets by an aromatic ,,, stacking interaction. In O,S -diethyl N -(4-methylbenzoyl)imidothiocarbonate, C13H17NO2S, pairs of molecules are linked into centrosymmetric dimers by pairs of symmetry-related C,H...,(arene) hydrogen bonds, while the molecules of O,S -diethyl N -(4-chlorobenzoyl)imidothiocarbonate, C12H14ClNO2S, are linked by a single C,H...O hydrogen bond into simple chains, pairs of which are linked by an aromatic ,,, stacking interaction to form a ladder-type structure.

In both cases, the complexes lie across a centre of inversion. The polymorphs differ substantially in their conformation and in their interactions, viz. Pb...S and ,,, for form (Ia) and Pb...S, Pb..., and C,H..., for form (Ib).

Castillo The molecule of the title compound, C23H27N3O2, adopts a conformation having no internal symmetry so that the compound exhibits conformational chirality. The molecules are linked by a combination of C,H...O and C,H...,(arene) hydrogen bonds into a chain of rings in which two types of centrosymmetric ring alternate. [source] Hydrogen-bonding patterns in 3-alkyl-3-hydroxyindolin-2-onesACTA CRYSTALLOGRAPHICA SECTION C, Issue 2 2010Diana Becerra The molecules of racemic 3-benzoylmethyl-3-hydroxyindolin-2-one, C16H13NO3, (I), are linked by a combination of N,H...O and O,H...O hydrogen bonds into a chain of centrosymmetric edge-fused R22(10) and R44(12) rings. Five monosubstituted analogues of (I), namely racemic 3-hydroxy-3-[(4-methylbenzoyl)methyl]indolin-2-one, C17H15NO3, (II), racemic 3-[(4-fluorobenzoyl)methyl]-3-hydroxyindolin-2-one, C16H12FNO3, (III), racemic 3-[(4-chlorobenzoyl)methyl]-3-hydroxyindolin-2-one, C16H12ClNO3, (IV), racemic 3-[(4-bromobenzoyl)methyl]-3-hydroxyindolin-2-one, C16H12BrNO3, (V), and racemic 3-hydroxy-3-[(4-nitrobenzoyl)methyl]indolin-2-one, C16H12N2O5, (VI), are isomorphous in space group P. In each of compounds (II),(VI), a combination of N,H...O and O,H...O hydrogen bonds generates a chain of centrosymmetric edge-fused R22(8) and R22(10) rings, and these chains are linked into sheets by an aromatic ,,, stacking interaction. No two of the structures of (II),(VI) exhibit the same combination of weak hydrogen bonds of C,H...O and C,H...,(arene) types. The molecules of racemic 3-hydroxy-3-(2-thienylcarbonylmethyl)indolin-2-one, C14H11NO3S, (VII), form hydrogen-bonded chains very similar to those in (II),(VI), but here the sheet formation depends upon a weak ,,, stacking interaction between thienyl rings. Comparisons are drawn between the crystal structures of compounds (I),(VII) and those of some recently reported analogues having no aromatic group in the side chain.

Amine Fourati The title compound, a chromophore of formula C28H18N2O2, crystallizes with the molecule lying on an inversion centre to give one-half of a crystallographically independent molecule in the asymmetric unit. The molecule is almost planar, with slight deviation of the benzene rings from the mean molecular plane. The structure is characterized by a herringbone packing arrangement arising from C,H..., and ,,, intermolecular interactions. The benzoxazole group is disordered between two orientations, with occupancy factors of 0.669,(10) and 0.331,(10) at 150,K [0.712,(7) and 0.288,(7) at 375,K].

There are no hydrogen bonds in the structure of (I), instead pairs of molecules are linked into centrosymmetric dimers by a single ,,, stacking interaction. In (II), a combination of a two-centre N,H...O hydrogen bond, a three-centre N,H...(O)2 hydrogen bond, together utilizing all three O atoms, and a two-centre C,H...N hydrogen bond, link the components into a ribbon containing R12(6), R22(10) and R66(30) rings.
