The molecule of the title compound, C14H11N3O5, is approximately planar, the dihedral angles between the two aromatic rings being 4.63 (7)°. O—H...N, N—H...O and O—H...O hydrogen bonds and π–π stacking interactions help to consolidate the crystal packing.

In the title compound, C14H14NO, the two benzene rings make a dihedral angle of 60.4 (4)°. The crystal packing is stabilized by intermolecular N—H...O and C—H...O hydrogen bonds and weak π–π stacking, linking the molecules into ladders of dimers.

An Ullmann-type coupling reaction was employed for the preparation of several N-arylated monopyrrolotetrathiafulvalenes with variable substitution patterns. Spectroscopic and electrochemical properties of the coupling products strongly depend on the electronic nature of the aromatic substituents due to their direct conjugation with the tetrathiafulvalene chromophore. The crystal packing of the arylated monopyrrolotetrathiafulvalenes is primarily defined by networks of C–H···X weak hydrogen bonds and short S···S contacts involving the tetrathiafulvalene moieties.

The isomeric derivatives 1,2-bis(iodomethyl)benzene, (I), and 1,3-bis(iodomethyl)benzene (II), both C8H8I2, were prepared by metathesis from their dibromo analogues. Theortho-derivative, (I), lies about a crystallographic twofold axis that bisects the C—C bond between the two iodomethyl substituents. The packing in (I) relies solely on C—H...I hydrogen bonds supported by weak parallel slipped π–π stacking interactions [inter-centroid distance = 4.0569 (11) Å, inter-planar distance = 3.3789 (8) Å and slippage = 2.245 Å]. While C—H...I hydrogen bonds are also found in the packing of (II), type II, I...I halogen bonds [I...I = 3.8662 (2) Å] and C—H...π contacts feature prominently in stabilizing the three-dimensional structure.

The title compound, C9H10BrNO3, which exists as the E isomer, crystallizes with two independent molecules in the asymmetric unit. The bond lengths and angles in both molecules are normal. The crystal packing is stabilized by intermolecular O—H...O hydrogen bonds, which link the molecules into circular tetramers, and by weak π–π stacking interactions.

Two crystal structures (polymorphs) of di(4-bromobenzenesulfonyl)amine (1), as determined by low-temperature single-crystal X-ray diffraction, are reported: Form A, monoclinic, P21/c, Z' = 1; form B: monoclinic, P21/c, Z' = 2. In A, the molecule adopts an extended conformation approximating to C2 symmetry, whereas the two independent molecules of form B display a folded hair-pin conformation with pseudo-mirror symmetry [torsion τ (C-S···S’-C’) and intercentroid distance dIC of the aromatic rings in A: 173.2° and 750.8 pm, in B: −5.4/−8.90° and 364.1/366.5 pm]. The packings of both polymorphs consist of layers, in which the molecules are connected by N-H···O hydrogen bonds in one and by Br···O interactions in the other dimension. The 1:1 onium salt (2; monoclinic, P21/n, Z' = 1) produced on N-deprotonation of 1 with 2,4-dimethylpyridine is structurally related to B. Its packing involves strands of formula units, whereby the anions retain the folded conformation (τ = 5.8°, dIC = 372.5 pm) and perfectly mimic the catemeric Br···O pattern of B, while the cations are isotactically connected to the anion backbone via an N-H(···O)2 three-centre bond. In all structures, a three-dimensional network of weak hydrogen bonds C-H···A (A = O, in 2 also N−) and C-H···Br contacts supports the controlling N-H···O and Br···O interactions; moreover, an intermolecular (π···π) stacking dimer of the type phenyl/phenyl and a (π···π) stacking trimer of the type phenyl/pyridinium/phenyl have been identified in A and 2, respectively. None of the structures exhibits very short bromine-bromine contacts suggestive of specific attractive forces.

The title compound, C10H11BrO4, a useful precursor to pharmaceutically active isocoumarin and isochroman derivatives, crystallizes with two unique molecules in the asymmetric unit. A π–π stacking interaction links the planar molecules in the asymmetric unit. Additional π–π contacts stack pairs of molecules along thecaxis. A feature of the crystal packing is the presence of a number of short Br...O contacts. A particularly unusual arrangement involves the formation of dimers, with pairs of Br...O contacts imposing a close Br...Br interaction and generating five-membered rings within an eight-membered ring formed by two Br...O contacts. Only two comparable arrangements have been reported previously. The Br...O contacts combine with weak C—H...O hydrogen bonds to form corrugated sheets of molecules approximately parallel to (001). These sheets are stacked along thecaxis by π–π interactions to generate a three-dimensional network.

In the title compound, C15H8Cl4N2O, the quinoxaline ring system is almost planar, with a dihedral angle between the benzene and pyrazine rings of 3.1 (2)°. The 2,4-dichlorophenyl ring is approximately perpendicular to the pyrazine ring, with a dihedral angle of 86.47 (13)° between them. The crystal packing features intermolecular N—H...O hydrogen bonds and π–π stacking interactions, with centroid–centroid distances in the range 3.699 (3)–4.054 (3) Å.

Weak hydrogen bonds control initial molecular recognition modes, but the structure is determined by the interactions among larger supramolecular assemblies.

The title compound, (C15H23N2)2[MnBr4], comprises two N-adamantyl-N′-ethylimidazolium cations and one tetrahedral [MnBr4]2− anion. Next to Coulombic interactions, weak hydrogen bonds of the type C—H...Br consolidate the crystal packing, building up a three-dimensional network.
