The crystal structure of a dihydrate of the title compound, 3-[(2-hydroxyethoxy)methyl]-6-methyl-3H-imidazolo[1,2-a]-purin-9(5H)-one, C11H13N5O3·2H2O, has been reinvestigated. The asymmetric unit contains two molecules of tricyclic acyclovir and four molecules of water. The structure consists of a three-dimensional network of strong hydrogen bonds that integrates all of the components. While the crystal structure and the formation of an (H2O)8solvent water molecule cluster through a disordered strong hydrogen bond [O...O = 2.807 (3) Å] between two water molecules across an inversion centre has been described previously [Suwińska, Golankiewicz & Zielenkiewicz (2001).Acta Cryst.C57, 767–769], the disorder was incompletely modelled. In this work, the disorder model is extended and includes disorder of one tricyclic acyclovir hydroxy group across another inversion centre [O...O = 2.644 (4) Å]. The resulting infinite O—H...O hydrogen-bonded water–hydroxy chains, analogous to the `proton wires' found in the membrane protein gramicidin A, are discussed and an unusual disorder model involving infinite concerted chains of O—H...O hydrogen bonds is provided.

The asymmetric unit of the title compound, 2,4,6-triamino-1,3,5-triazin-1-ium cyanoacetate monohydrate, C3H7N6 +·NCCH2COO−·H2O, consists of a melaminium cation, a cyanoacetate anion and a water molecule, which are connected to each other via N—H...O and O—H...O hydrogen bonds, generating an eight-membered ring. In the crystal, the melaminium cations are connected by two pairs of N—H...N hydrogen bonds, forming tapes along [110]. These tapes develop a three-dimensional network through N—H...O, O—H...O, N—H...N and C—H...O hydrogen bonds between the cations, anions and water molecules.

The asymmetric unit of the polymeric title compound, [Ni(C8H4O4)(C10H14N4)(H2O)]n, contains one Ni2+cation, one coordinating water molecule, one 3,3′,5,5′-tetramethyl-4,4′-bipyrazole ligand and half each of two benzene-1,4-dicarboxylate anions, the other halves being generated by inversion symmetry. The Ni2+cation exhibits an octahedral N2O4coordination sphere defined by the O atoms of the water molecule and two different anions and the N atoms of two symmetry-relatedN-heterocycles. TheN-heterocycles and both anions bridge adjacent Ni2+cations into a three-dimensional network structure, with one of the anions in a bis-bidentate and the other in a bis-monodentate bridging mode. N—H...O and O—H...O hydrogen bonds between the N-heterocycles and water molecules as donor groups and the carboxylate O atoms as acceptor groups consolidate the crystal packing.

The crystal structure of the hydrated title salt, C22H48N4 4+·4Cl−·4H2O (C22H48N4 = H4 L = 3,14-diethyl-2,6,13,17-tetraazoniatricyclo[16.4.0.07,12]docosane), has been determined using synchrotron radiation at 220 K. The structure determination reveals that protonation has occurred at all four amine N atoms. The asymmetric unit comprises one half of the macrocyclic cation (completed by crystallographic inversion symmetry), two chloride anions and two water molecules. The macrocyclic ring of the tetracation adopts an exodentate (3,4,3,4)-D conformation. The crystal structure is stabilized by intermolecular hydrogen bonds involving the macrocycle N—H groups and water O—H groups as donors, and the O atoms of the water molecules and chloride anions as acceptors, giving rise to a three-dimensional network.

The asymmetric unit of the title compound, {[Mn2Sb2S5(C15H11N3)2]·4H2O} n , consists of two crystallographically independent MnII ions, two unique terpyridine ligands, one [Sb2S5]4− anion and four solvent water molecules, all of which are located in general positions. The [Sb2S5]4− anion consists of two SbS3 units that share common corners. Each of the MnII ions is fivefold coordinated by two symmetry-related S atoms of [Sb2S5]4− anions and three N atoms of a terpyridine ligand within an irregular coordination. Each two anions are linked by two [Mn(terpyridine)]2+ cations into chains along the c-axis direction that consist of eight-membered Mn2Sb2S4 rings. These chains are further connected into a three-dimensional network by intermolecular O—H...O and O—H...S hydrogen bonds. The crystal investigated was twinned and therefore, a twin refinement using data in HKLF-5 [Sheldrick (2015). Acta Cryst. C71, 3–8] format was performed.

In the crystal structure of the title complex, [Mn(NCS)2(C6H8N2)(H2O)3]·2C6H8N2, the MnIIcation is coordinated by two terminallyN-bonded thiocyanate anions, three water molecules and one 2,6-dimethylpyrazine ligand within a slightly distorted N3O3octahedral geometry; the entire complex molecule is generated by the application of a twofold rotation axis. The asymmetric unit also contains an uncoordinating 2,5-dimethylpyrazine ligand in a general position. Obviously, the coordination to the 2,6-dimethylpyrazine ligand is preferred because coordination to the 2,5-dimethylpyrazine is hindered due to the bulky methyl group proximate to the N atom. The discrete complexes are linked by water-O—H...N(2,6-dimethylpyzazine/2,5-dimethylpyzazine) hydrogen bonding, forming a three-dimensional network. In the crystal, molecules are arranged in a way that cavities are formed in which unspecified, disordered solvent molecules reside. These were modelled employing the SQUEEZE routine inPLATON[Spek (2015).Acta Cryst. C71, 9–18]. The composition of the unit cell does not take into account the presence of the unspecified solvent.

The asymmetric unit of the title compound, [Fe(NCS)2(C6H4N2)2(H2O)2]·2C6H4N2, comprises one FeIIcation occupying an inversion centre as well as one thiocyanate anion, one water molecule and two 4-cyanopyridine molecules in general positions. The iron cations are coordinated by two N-bonded thiocyanate anions, two (pyridine)N-bonded 4-cyanopyridine ligands and two water molecules into discrete complexes. The resulting coordination polyhedron can be described as a slightly distorted octahedron. The discrete complexes are connected through centrosymmetric pairs of (pyridine)C—H...N(cyano) hydrogen bonds into chains that are further linked into a three-dimensional network through intermolecular O—H...N hydrogen bonds involving the 4-cyanopyridine solvent molecules.

The title molecular salt, C6H8N+·C6H2N3O7−(systematic name: 2-methylpyridinium 2,4,6-trinitrophenolate), crystallizes with two cations and two anions in the asymmetric unit. In the crystal, the cations are linked to the anionsviabifurcated N—H...(O,O) hydrogen bonds, generatingR12(6) graph-set motifs. Numerous C—H...O hydrogen bonds are observed between these cation–anion pairs, which result in a three-dimensional network. In addition, weak aromatic π–π stacking between the 2-methylpyridinium rings [inter-centroid distance = 3.8334 (19) Å] and very weak stacking [inter-centroid distance = 4.0281 (16) Å] between inversion-related pairs of picrate anions is observed. The title salt is a second triclinic polymorph of the structure (also withZ′ = 2) reported earlier [Anitaet al.(2006).Acta Cryst.C62, o567–o570; Chanet al.(2014).CrystEngComm,16, 4508–4538]. In the title compound, the cations and anions display a chequerboard arrangement when viewed down [100], whereas in the first polymorph, (010) layers of alternating cations and anions are apparent in a [100] view. It is interesting that the unit-cell lengths are almost identical for the two polymorphs, although the inter-axial angles are quite different.

The title compound, [CdNa2(C8H4O4)2(C3H7NO)(H2O)2]nor [CdNa2(1,3-bdc)2(DMF)(H2O)2]n, is a new CdII–NaIheterobimetallic coordination polymer. The asymmetric unit consists of one CdIIatom, two NaIatoms, two 1,3-bdc ligands, two coordinated water molecules and one coordinated DMF molecule. The CdIIatom exhibits a seven-coordinate geometry, while the NaIatoms can be considered to be pentacoordinate. The metal ions and their symmetry-related equivalents are connectedviachelating–bridging carboxylate groups of the 1,3-bdc ligands to generate a three-dimensional framework. In the crystal, there are classical O—H...O hydrogen bonds involving the coordinated water molecules and the 1,3-bdc carboxylate groups and π–π stacking between the benzene rings of the 1,3-bdc ligands present within the frameworks.

In the structure of the brucinium salt of 4-aminophenylarsonic acid (p-arsanilic acid), systematically 2,3-dimethoxy-10-oxostrychnidinium 4-aminophenylarsonate tetrahydrate, (C23H27N2O4)[As(C6H7N)O2(OH)]·4H2O, the brucinium cations form the characteristic undulating and overlapping head-to-tail layered brucine substructures packed along [010]. The arsanilate anions and the water molecules of solvation are accommodated between the layers and are linked to them through a primary cation N—H...O(anion) hydrogen bond, as well as through water O—H...O hydrogen bonds to brucinium and arsanilate ions as well as bridging water O-atom acceptors, giving an overall three-dimensional network structure.
