The molar ratio variations of organic and inorganic reactants of chloridobismuthates(III) with N,N-dimethylethane-1,2-diammonium, [(CH3)2NH(CH2)2NH3]2+, and N,N,N′,N′-tetramethylguanidinium, [NH2C{N(CH3)2}2]+, cations lead to the formation of four different products, namely, tris(N,N-dimethylethane-1,2-diammonium) bis[hexachloridobismuthate(III)], [(CH3)2NH(CH2)2NH3]3[BiCl6]2 (1), catena-poly[N,N-dimethylethane-1,2-diammonium [[tetrachloridobismuthate(III)]-μ-chlorido]], {[(CH3)2NH(CH2)2NH3][BiCl5]} n (2), tris(N,N,N′,N′-tetramethylguanidinium) tri-μ-chlorido-bis[trichloridobismuthate(III)], [NH2C{N(CH3)2}2]3[Bi2Cl9] (3), and catena-poly[N,N,N′,N′-tetramethylguanidinium [[dichloridobismuthate(III)]-di-μ-chlorido]], {[NH2C{N(CH3)2}2][BiCl4]} n (4). The hybrid crystals 1–4, containing relatively large but different organic cations, are composed of four distinct anionic substructures. They are built up from isolated [BiCl6]3− octahedra in 1, from face-sharing bioctahedral [Bi2Cl9]3− units in 3, from polymeric corner-sharing {[BiCl5]2−} n chains in 2 and from edge-sharing {[BiCl4]−} n chains in 4. The distortions shown by the single [BiCl6]3− polyhedra in 1–4 are associated with intrinsic interactions within the anionic substructures and the organic...inorganic substructures interactions, namely, N/C—H...Cl hydrogen bonds. The first factor is the stronger, which is evident in comparison of the experimentally determined geometrical and calculated distortion parameters for the isolated octahedron in 1 to the more complex inorganic substructures in 2–4. The formation of N—H...Cl hydrogen bonds, in terms of their number and strength, is favoured for 1 and 3 containing relatively easily accessed hydrogen-bond acceptors of isolated [BiCl6]3− and [Bi2Cl9]3− units. The studies of the deviations from regularity of the [BiCl6]3− octahedra within inorganic substructures were supported by a survey of the Cambridge Structural Database, which confirmed the role played by different factors in the variations in geometry of the inorganic anions.

In order to study the preferred hydrogen-bonding pattern of 6-amino-2-thiouracil, C4H5N3OS, (I), crystallization experiments yielded five different pseudopolymorphs of (I), namely the dimethylformamide disolvate, C4H5N3OS·2C3H7NO, (Ia), the dimethylacetamide monosolvate, C4H5N3OS·C4H9NO, (Ib), the dimethylacetamide sesquisolvate, C4H5N3OS·1.5C4H9NO, (Ic), and two different 1-methylpyrrolidin-2-one sesquisolvates, C4H5N3OS·1.5C5H9NO, (Id) and (Ie). All structures containR21(6) N—H...O hydrogen-bond motifs. In the latter four structures, additionalR22(8) N—H...O hydrogen-bond motifs are present stabilizing homodimers of (I). No type of hydrogen bond other than N—H...O is observed. According to a search of the Cambridge Structural Database, most 2-thiouracil derivatives form homodimers stabilized by anR22(8) hydrogen-bonding pattern, with (i) only N—H...O, (ii) only N—H...S or (iii) alternating pairs of N—H...O and N—H...S hydrogen bonds.

Halogenidoantimonate(III) monohydrates of the (C4H12N2)[SbX5]·H2O (X = Cl, 1 or Br, 2) formula, crystallizing in the same monoclinic space group of P21/n, are isostructural, with an isostructurality index close to 99%. The single crystal X-ray diffraction data do not show any indication of phase transition in cooling these crystals from room temperature to 85 K. Both hybrid crystals are built up from [SbX6]3– octahedra that are joined together by a common edge forming isolated bioctahedral [Sb2X10]4– units, piperazine-1,4-diium (C4H12N2)2+ cations and water of crystallization molecules. These structural components are joined together by related but somewhat different O/N/C–H···X and N–H···O hydrogen bonded systems. The evolution of structural parameters, notably the secondary Sb–X bonds along with the associated X/Sb–Sb/X–X/Sb angles and O/N/C–H···X hydrogen bonds, as a function of ligand exchange and temperature, along with their influence on the irregularity of [SbX6]3– octahedra, was determined. The comparison of packing features and hydrogen bond parameters, additionally supported by the Hirshfeld surface analysis and data retrieved from the Cambridge Structural Database, demonstrates the hierarchy and importance of hydrogen bond interactions that influence the irregularity of single [SbX6]3– units.

InN,N′-di-tert-butyl-N′′,N′′-dimethylphosphoric triamide, C10H26N3OP, (I), andN,N′,N′′,N′′′-tetra-tert-butoxybis(phosphonic diamide), C16H40N4O3P2, (II), the extended structures are mediated by P(O)...(H—N)2interactions. The asymmetric unit of (I) consists of six independent molecules which aggregate through P(O)...(H—N)2hydrogen bonds, givingR21(6) loops and forming two independent chains parallel to theaaxis. Of the 12 independenttert-butyl groups, five are disordered over two different positions with occupancies ranging from 1 \over 6 to 5 \over 6. In the structure of (II), the asymmetric unit contains one molecule. P(O)...(H—N)2hydrogen bonds giveS(6) andR22(8) rings, and the molecules form extended chains parallel to thecaxis. The structures of (I) and (II), along with similar structures having (N)P(O)(NH)2and (NH)2P(O)(O)P(O)(NH)2skeletons extracted from the Cambridge Structural Database, are used to compare hydrogen-bond patterns in these families of phosphoramidates. The strengths of P(O)[...H—N]x(x= 1, 2 or 3) hydrogen bonds are also analysed, using these compounds and previously reported structures with (N)2P(O)(NH) and P(O)(NH)3fragments.

In recent years there has been considerable interest in chalcogen and hydrogen bonding involving Se atoms, but a general understanding of their nature and behaviour has yet to emerge. In the present work, the hydrogen-bonding ability and nature of Se atoms in selenourea derivatives, selenoamides and selones has been explored using analysis of the Cambridge Structural Database andab initiocalculations. In the CSD there are 70 C=Se structures forming hydrogen bonds, all of them selenourea derivatives or selenoamides. Analysis of intramolecular geometries andab initiopartial charges show that this bonding stems from resonance-induced Cδ+=Seδ−dipoles, much like hydrogen bonding to C=S acceptors. C=Se acceptors are in many respects similar to C=S acceptors, with similar vdW-normalized hydrogen-bond lengths and calculated interaction strengths. The similarity between the C=S and C=Se acceptors for hydrogen bonding should inform and guide the use of C=Se in crystal engineering.

Statistical models to predict the number of hydrogen bonds that might be formed by any donor or acceptor atom in a crystal structure have been derived using organic structures in the Cambridge Structural Database. This hydrogen-bond coordination behaviour has been uniquely defined for more than 70 unique atom types, and has led to the development of a methodology to construct hypothetical hydrogen-bond arrangements. Comparing the constructed hydrogen-bond arrangements with known crystal structures shows promise in the assessment of structural stability, and some initial examples of industrially relevant polymorphs, co-crystals and hydrates are described.

Crystallographic results, retrieved from the Cambridge Structural Database, show that the C--H protons of cyclopropane, aziridine and oxirane form C—H...O (particularly C—H...O—C) hydrogen bonds. The frequency of formation and geometrical characteristics of these bonds indicate a bond-strength ordering: Csp 1—H...O > C(ring)—H...O ≃ Csp 2—H...O > Csp 3—H...O, which is in excellent agreement with the well known ethylenic properties of C(ring)—H and with residual δ+ charges calculated for these systems. There is some evidence to suggest that C=C—H in cyclopropene, known to be a highly acidic H, forms stronger hydrogen bonds than C—H in saturated three-membered rings. Crystallographic data have also been used to provide geometrical evidence for the formation of O,N—H...π(ring) bonding to three-membered rings, proposed on the basis of spectroscopic data [Joris, Schleyer & Gleiter (1968). J. Am. Chem. Soc. 90, 327–336]. The two modes of H...π(ring) binding suggested there, viz. `edge-on' approach of H to a ring C—C bond and `face-on' approach towards the ring centroid, are found to be dominant in crystallographic observations of this novel hydrogen bond.

The structures of six cyclic oxazaphospholidines and three cyclic oxazaphosphinanes have been determined and their supramolecular structures have been compared. The molecules differ with respect to the functional groups attached to the central five- or six-membered rings, but have one phosphoryl group in common. The predominant feature in the supramolecular structures is the existence of relatively weak intermolecular phosphoryl XH...O=P (X = C, N) hydrogen bonds, creating in nearly all cases linear zigzag or double molecular chains. The molecular chains are in general linked to each other via very weak CH...π or usual hydrogen-bond interactions. A survey of the Cambridge Structural Database on similar XH...O=P interactions shows a very large flexibility of the XH...O angle, which is in agreement with the DFT calculation reported elsewhere. The strength of the XH...O=P interaction can therefore be considered as relatively weak to moderately strong, and is expected to play at least a role in the formation of secondary substructures.

Molecules of N-(4′-iodophenylsulfonyl)-4-nitroaniline, 4-O2NC6H4NHSO2C6H4I-4′ (1), are linked by three-centre I...O2N interactions into chains and these chains are linked into a three-dimensional framework by C—H...O hydrogen bonds. In the isomeric N-(4′-nitrophenylsulfonyl)-4-iodoaniline, 4-IC6H4NHSO2C6H4NO2-4′ (2), the chains generated by the I...O2N interactions are again linked into a three-dimensional framework by C—H...O hydrogen bonds. Molecules of N,N-bis(3′-nitrophenylsulfonyl)-4-iodoaniline, 4-IC6H4N(SO2C6H4NO2-3′)2 (3), lie across twofold rotation axes in space group C2/c and they are linked into chains by paired I...O=S interactions: these chains are linked into sheets by a C—H...O hydrogen bond, and the sheets are linked into a three-dimensional framework by aromatic π...π stacking interactions. In N-(4′-iodophenylsulfonyl)-3-nitroaniline, 3-O2NC6H4NHSO2C6H4I-4′ (4), there are R^2_2(8) rings formed by hard N—H...O=S hydrogen bonds and R^2_2(24) rings formed by two-centre I...nitro interactions, which together generate a chain of fused rings: the combination of a C—H...O hydrogen bond and aromatic π...π stacking interactions links the chains into sheets. Molecules of N-(4′-iodophenylsulfonyl)-4-methyl-2-nitroaniline, 4-CH3-2-O2NC6H3NHSO2C6H4I-4′ (5), are linked by N—H...O=S and C—H...O(nitro) hydrogen bonds into a chain containing alternating R^2_2(8) and R^2_2(10) rings, but there are no I...O interactions of either type. There are two molecules in the asymmetric unit of N-(4′-iodophenylsulfonyl)-2-nitroaniline, 2-O2NC6H4NHSO2C6H4I-4′ (6), and the combination of an I...O=S interaction and a hard N—H...O(nitro) hydrogen bond links the two types of molecule to form a cyclic, centrosymmetric four-component aggregate. C—H...O hydrogen bonds link these four-molecule aggregates to form a molecular ladder. Comparisons are made with structures retrieved from the Cambridge Structural Database.

The structure of the title compound, C15H14Br2N2O, at 180 K has monoclinic (P21/n) symmetry. It was obtained unexpectedly from the decomposition of the parent 4-bromo-N-tert-butoxycarbonyl-N-methyl-aniline. It exhibits an `endo' conformation with angles between the two aromatic rings slightly lower than the average values found for similar compounds on the Cambridge Structural Database. In the crystal, C—H...O hydrogen bonds and short Br...Br halogen bonds [3.444 (1) Å] are observed.
