The isomers 4′-(4-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl)-4,2′:6′,4″-terpyridine (1), 4′-(3-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl)-4,2′:6′,4″-terpyridine (2), 4′-(4-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl)-3,2′:6′,3″-terpyridine (3), and 4′-(3-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl)-3,2′:6′,3″-terpyridine (4) have been prepared and characterized. The single crystal structures of 1 and 2 were determined. The 1D-polymers [Cu2(hfacac)4(1)2]n.2nC6H4Cl2 (Hhfacac = 1,1,1,5,5,5-hexafluoropentane-2,4-dione), [Cu(hfacac)2(2)]n.2nC6H5Me, [Cu2(hfacac)4(3)2]n.nC6H4Cl2, [Cu2(hfacac)4(3)2]n.nC6H5Cl, and [Cu(hfacac)2(4)]n.nC6H5Cl have been formed by reactions of 1, 2, 3 and 4 with [Cu(hfacac)2].H2O under conditions of crystal growth by layering and four of these coordination polymers have been formed on a preparative scale. [Cu2(hfacac)4(1)2]n.2nC6H4Cl2 and [Cu(hfacac)2(2)]n.2nC6H5Me are zig-zag chains and the different substitution position of the CF3 group in 1 and 2 does not affect this motif. Packing of the polymer chains is governed mainly by C–F...F–C contacts, and there are no inter-polymer π-stacking interactions. The conformation of the 3,2′:6′,3″-tpy unit in [Cu2(hfacac)4(3)2]n.nC6H4Cl2 and [Cu(hfacac)2(4)]n.nC6H5Cl differs, leading to different structural motifs in the 1D-polymer backbones. In [Cu(hfacac)2(4)]n.nC6H5Cl, the peripheral 3-CF3C6H4 unit is accommodated in a pocket between two {Cu(hfacac)2} units and engages in four C–Hphenyl...F–Chfacac contacts which lock the phenylpyridine unit in a near planar conformation. In [Cu2(hfacac)4(3)2]n.nC6H4Cl2 and [Cu(hfacac)2(4)]n.nC6H5Cl, π-stacking interactions between 4′-trifluoromethylphenyl-3,2′:6′,3″-tpy domains are key packing interactions, and this contrasts with the packing of polymers incorporating 1 and 2. We use powder X-ray diffraction to demonstrate that the assemblies of the coordination polymers are reproducible, and that a switch from a 4,2′:6′,4″- to 3,2′:6′,3″-tpy metal-binding unit is accompanied by a change from dominant C–F...F–C and C–F...H–C contacts to π-stacking of arene domains between ligands 3 or 4.

The title compounds, 6-(2-hydroxybenzyl)-5H-thiazolo[3,2-a]pyrimidin-5-one, C13H8N2O3S, (1), and 6-(2-hydroxybenzyl)-3-methyl-5H-thiazolo[3,2-a]pyrimidin-5-one, C14H10N2O3S, (2), were synthesized when a chromone-3-carboxylic acid, activated with (benzotriazol-1-yloxy)tripyrrolidinylphosphonium hexafluoridophosphate (PyBOP), was reacted with a primary heteromamine. Instead of the expected amidation, the unusual title thiazolopyrimidine-5-one derivatives were obtained serendipitously and a mechanism of formation is proposed. Both compounds present an intramolecular O—H...O hydrogen bond, which generates anS(6) ring. The dihedral angles between the heterocyclic moiety and the 2-hydroxybenzoyl ring are 55.22 (5) and 46.83 (6)° for (1) and (2), respectively. In the crystals, the molecules are linked by weak C—H...O hydrogen bonds and π–π stacking interactions.

How many strong C−I⋯N halogen bonds can one 1,3,5-trifluoro-2,4,6-triiodobenzene molecule form in a crystal structure? To answer this question, we investigated in detail the noncovalent interactions between 1,3,5-trifluoro-2,4,6-triiodobenzene and a series of 1,10-phenanthroline derivatives by employing a combined theoretical and experimental method. The results of the quantum chemical calculations and crystallographic experiments clearly show that there is a structural competition between a C−I⋯N halogen bond and π⋯π stacking interaction. For example, when there are much stronger π⋯π stacking interactions between two 1,10-phenanthroline derivative molecules or between two 1,3,5-trifluoro-2,4,6-triiodobenzene molecules in the crystal structures, then one 1,3,5-trifluoro-2,4,6-triiodobenzene molecule forms only one C−I⋯N halogen bond with one 1,10-phenanthroline derivative molecule. Another example is when π⋯π stacking interactions in the crystal structures are not much stronger, one 1,3,5-trifluoro-2,4,6-triiodobenzene molecule can form two C−I⋯N halogen bonds with two 1,10-phenanthroline derivative molecules.

To explore the coordination possibilities of perylene-based ligands with a larger conjugated π-system, four ZnII, MnII, and CoII coordination polymers with perylene-3,4,9,10-tetracarboxylate (ptc) and the chelating 1,10-phenanthroline (phen) ligands were synthesized and characterized: {[Zn2(ptc)(phen)2](H2O)10}∞ (1), {[Zn3(ptc)(OH)2(phen)2](H2O)3}∞ (2), {[Mn(ptc)0.5(phen)(H2O)2](H2O)1.5}∞ (3), and {[Co(ptc)0.5(phen)(H2O)2](H2O)2.5}∞ (4). Structural analysis reveals that complexes 1 and 2 both take one-dimensional polymeric chain structures with dinuclear and trinuclear units as nodes, respectively, which are further extended via the accessorial secondary interchain interactions, such as C–H···O H-bonding or aromatic π···π stacking interactions, to give rise to the relevant higher-dimensional frameworks. Compound 3 has a two-dimensional sheet structure that is further assembled to form a three-dimensional framework by interlayer π···π stacking interactions. Complex 4 is a one-dimensional ribbon-like array structure that is interlinked by the co-effects of intermolecular π···π stacking and C–H···π supramolecular interactions, resulting in a higher-dimensional framework from the different crystallographic directions. Moreover, complexes 1–4 exhibit strong solid-state luminescence emissions at room temperature, which mainly originate from intraligand π→π* transitions of ptc.

We describe the syntheses and crystal structures of two indole derivatives, namely 6-isopropyl-3-(2-nitro-1-phenylethyl)-1H-indole, C19H20N2O2, (I), and 2-(4-methoxyphenyl)-3-(2-nitro-1-phenylethyl)-1H-indole, C23H20N2O3, (II); the latter crystallizes with two molecules (AandB) with similar conformations (r.m.s. overlay fit = 0.139 Å) in the asymmetric unit. Despite the presence of O atoms as potential acceptors for classical hydrogen bonds, the dominant intermolecular interaction in each crystal is an N—H...π bond, which generates chains in (I) andA+AandB+Binversion dimers in (II). A different aromatic ring acts as the acceptor in each case. The packing is consolidated by C—H...π interactions in each case but aromatic π–π stacking interactions are absent.

Abstract The crystal structures of the title compounds, [Mn(phen)2Cl2] (I) and [Mn(bipy)2Cl2] (II), have been determined at 150 K. The manganese atoms in both compounds are coordinated by four pyridine nitrogen atoms from two 1,10-phenanthroline or 4,4´-bipyridine ligands and two chloride anions, resulting in a distorted cis-MnN4Cl2 octahedral geometry. Both complexes are connected through C-H・・・Cl hydrogen bonds into frameworks. The π-π stacking interactions are observed in crystal structure of both ones.

The structures of three new 7-aryl-benzo[h]pyrazolo[3,4-b]quinolines, 8-methyl-7-(4-chlorophenyl)-10-phenyl-6,10-dihydro-5H-benzo[h]pyrazolo[3,4-b]quinoline, C27H20ClN3, 8-methyl-7-(3-pyridinyl)-10-phenyl-6,10-dihydro-5H-benzo[b]pyrazolo[3,4-b]quinoline, C26H20N4, and 8-methyl-7-(4-pyridinyl)-10-phenyl-10H-benzo[h]pyrazolo[3,4-b]quinoline, C26H18N4, which is an unexpected oxidation product isolated from the attempted synthesis of 8-methyl-7-(4-pyridinyl)-10-phenyl-6,10-dihydro-5H-benzo[h]pyrazolo[3,4-b]quinoline, and those of three new 11-aryl-benzo[f]pyrazolo[3,4-b]quinolines, 11-(4-methylphenyl)-10-methyl-8-phenyl-6,8-dihydro-5H-benzo[f]pyrazolo[3,4-b]quinoline, C28H23N3 (P\bar 1, Z′ = 2), 11-(4-methoxyphenyl)-10-methyl-8-phenyl-6,8-dihydro-5H-benzo[f]pyrazolo[3,4-b]quinoline, C28H23N3O (P21/c, Z′ = 4), and 11-(3,4,5-trimethoxyphenyl)-10-methyl-8-phenyl-6,8-dihydro-5H-benzo[f]pyrazolo[3,4-b]quinoline, C30H27N3O3, are reported. The crystal structures are compared with those of a number of analogues reported in the recent literature; in particular, structural comparisons are drawn within each series as the substituted pendent aryl group is varied, and between several pairs of strictly isomeric 7-aryl-benzo[h]pyrazolo[3,4-b]quinolines and 11-aryl-benzo[f]pyrazolo[3,4-b]quinolines containing the same aryl substituents within each pair. Intermolecular interactions of the C—H...π type are found in the crystal structures of both series, but π...π stacking interactions are found only in the 7-aryl-benzo[h]pyrazolo[3,4-b]quinoline series.
