A small conformational change in the asymmetric unit has a significant effect on how non-covalent interactions determine (i) the crystal packing and (ii) the effect of T on the relative balance of electrostatics and dispersion–repulsions.

The arylidene–imidazolone derivatives are a group of compounds of great interest in medicinal chemistry due to their various pharmacological actions. In order to study the possible conformations of an arylidene–imidazolone derivative, two new crystal structures were determined by X-ray diffraction, namely (Z)-5-(4-chlorobenzylidene)-2-(4-methylpiperazin-1-yl)-3H-imidazol-5(4H)-one, C15H17ClN4O, (6), and its salt 4-[5-(4-chlorobenzylidene)-5-oxo-4,5-dihydro-3H-imidazol-2-yl]-1-methylpiperazin-1-ium 3-{5-[4-(diethylamino)benzylidene]-4-oxo-2-thioxothiazolidin-3-yl}propionate, C15H18ClN4O+·C17H19N2O3S2 −, (7). Both compounds crystallize in the space group P\overline{1}. The basic form (6) crystallizes with two molecules in the asymmetric unit. In the acid form of (6), the N atom of the piperazine ring is protonated by proton transfer from the carboxyl group of the rhodanine acid derivative. The greatest difference in the conformations of (6) and its protonated form, (6c), is observed in the location of the arylidene–imidazolone substituent at the N atom. In the case of (6c), the position of this substituent is close to axial, while for (6), the corresponding position is intermediate between equatorial and axial. The crystal packing is dominated by a network of N—H...O hydrogen bonds. Furthermore, the crystal structures are stabilized by numerous intermolecular contacts of types C—H...N and C—H...Cl in (6), and C—H...O and C—H...S in (7). The geometry with respect to the location of the substituents at the N atoms of the piperazine ring was compared with other crystal structures possessing an N-methylpiperazine moiety.

Different polymorphs have different intensive physical properties and it is still impossible to predict from scratch if a change in the crystallization conditions will result in different crystal structures or not. In this contribution, possible correlations are highlighted among charge density features, molecular conformation and interaction energetics in the two known polymorphic forms of (DTC)[1,2], an isothiazole β-sultamic derivative. A tentative rationale is provided for the relative stability of the two forms on the basis of their different self-recognition patterns. Both polymorphs crystallize in the same P21/n space group and show very different non-covalent networks of weak C-H–X (X = N,O,π) interactions due to the dissimilar conformation of the asymmetric units (ASU). Accurate multi-temperature (100 K ≤ T ≤ 298 K) single-crystal X-Ray diffraction experiments were carried out and the evolution of crystal packing and self-recognition energetics were monitored through periodic quantum-mechanical calculations at fixed geometries. Preliminary results show that dispersive/repulsive and electrostatic non-covalent interactions dominate the crystal packing in both polymorphs. At T=100 K the form A have a tighter packing, as it shows a greater propensity in being involved in H bonds than B (see the Hirshfeld surface fingerprint plots[3] of forms A -left- and B -right- here reported). This reflects in greater density, whereas the estimated DFT cohesive energies of the two forms are similar. DTC has enough molecular flexibility to access various favourable arrangements during the nucleation, as the interconversion between the A and B conformers in the gas phase takes place with a very small activation energy. The possible role of the solvent in favouring either of the two observed conformations is discussed.

The series of haloanilinium and halopyridinium salts: 4-IPhNH3Cl (1), 4-IPhNH3Br (5), 4-IPhNH3H2PO4 (6), 4-ClPhNH3H2PO4 (8), 3-IPyBnCl (9), 3-IPyHCl (10) and 3-IPyH-5NIPA (3-iodopyridinium 5-nitroisophthalate, 13), where hydrogen or/and halogen bonding represents the most relevant non-covalent interactions, has been prepared and characterized by single crystal X-ray diffraction. This series was further complemented by extracting some relevant crystal structures: 4-BrPhNH3Cl (2, CCDC ref. code TAWRAL), 4-ClPhNH3Cl (3, CURGOL), 4-FPhNH3Cl (4, ANLCLA), 4-BrPhNH3H2PO4, (7, UGISEI), 3-BrPyHCl, (11, CIHBAX) and 3-ClPyHCl, (12, VOQMUJ) from Cambridge Structural Database for sake of comparison. Based on the X-ray data it was possible to highlight the balance between non-covalent forces acting in these systems, where the relative strength of the halogen bonding C–X···A− (X = I, Br or Cl) and the ratio between the halogen and hydrogen bonds [C–X···A− : D–H···A−] varied across the series.

Single-crystal X-ray diffraction reveals a series of phosphorescent cocrystals which were assembled by 1,4-diiodotetrafluorobenzene (1,4-DITFB) and either 4,7-dimethyl-1,10-phenanthroline (DMPhe), 4,7-diphenyl-1,10-phenanthroline (DPPhe) or 4,7-dichloro-1,10-phenanthroline (DClPhe)viaC—I...N halogen bonding. These cocrystals, labeled (1), (2) and (3), respectively, are phosphorescent and a distinct change in phosphorescent color can be observed from orange–yellow, green to yellow–green, with well defined vibrational band maxima at 587, 520 and 611 nm for (1), (2) and (3). Based on the dependence of halogen bonding in sites and strength, we discussed the impact of substituents with different electron-withdrawing effects and steric hindrance on intermolecular noncovalent interactions and phosphorescence. The method of inducing and modulating phosphorescence by halogen bonding and other weak non-covalent interactions through changing the substituent groups of molecules should be significant in both theory and the application of optical function materials with predictable and modulated luminescent properties.

Three aminomethylbenzoic acid derivatives were theoretically studied at M062X/6-311++G(d,p) level in a vacuum, namely 2-ammonio-5-methylcarboxybenzene perchlorate (1), 4-(ammoniomethyl) carboxybenzene nitrate (2) and 4-(ammoniomethyl)carboxybenze perchlorate (3). The compounds’ structures were fully optimized and compared with the single-crystal X-ray diffraction results, showing a very close agreement with the experimental structural parameters. Their IR, 1H- and 13C-NMR spectra were calculated and examined in detail. Furthermore, the molecular electrostatic potential (MEP) maps of the studied compounds were investigated and the strength of the non-covalent interactions evaluated. In addition to these results, the NLO properties of the three compounds were predicted.

During attempts to produce penta-substituted cyclohexanol involving weak interactions, we have crystallized A [where, A = (1S,2S,3R,4S,6S)-2,6-bis(4-bromrophenyl)-4-hydroxy-4-(pyridin- 2-yl)cyclohexane-1,3-diyl)-bis(pyridin-2-ylmethanone)] in DMF-water (1 : 1) solvent mixture with the P-1 space group. Interestingly, in this class of compound, weak interactions have not been explored elaborately in the literature. Herein, we have investigated various types of weak interactions like π · · · π interaction, C–H · · · π interaction, Br· · · Br interaction and H-bonding interaction. These types of non-covalent interactions attribute to the supramolecular framework in the crystal packing of the studied molecule. In addition, the composition of the organic molecule A is confirmed from Single crystal X-ray structure and then performed the theoretical geometry optimization (DFT study) on it.

The title compound N-(4-methoxyphenyl)-2-[4-(3-oxo-3-phenylprop-1-en-1-yl)phenoxy]acetamide, C24H21NO4, was prepared from reaction of N-(4-methoxyphenyl)-2-chloroacetamide and (E)-3-(4-hydroxyphenyl)-1-phenylprop-2-en-1-one, which was obtained from the reaction of 4-hydroxybenzaldehyde and acetophenone. The structure of the title compound was determined by IR, 1H-NMR, 13C-NMR and HR–MS spectroscopic data and further characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The asymmetric unit contains four molecules, each displaying an E-configuration of the C=C bond. The dihedral angle between the phenyl rings in each molecule varies between 14.9 (2) and 45.8 (2)°. In the crystal, C—H...O hydrogen-bonding interactions link the molecules into chains running along the [001] direction. In addition, C—H...π interactions further stabilize the crystal packing. A Hirshfeld analysis indicates that the most important contributions to the surface contacts are from H...H (43.6%), C...H/H...C (32.1%) and O...H/H...O (18.1%) interactions.
