The diorganotin(IV) complexes of 5-[(E)-2-aryldiazen-1-yl]-2-hydroxybenzoic acid are of interest because of their structural diversity in the crystalline state and their interesting biological activity. The structures of dimethylbis{2-hydroxy-5-[(E)-2-(4-methylphenyl)diazen-1-yl]benzoato}tin(IV), [Sn(CH3)2(C14H11N2O3)2], and di-n-butylbis{2-hydroxy-5-[(E)-2-(4-methylphenyl)diazen-1-yl]benzoato}tin(IV) benzene hemisolvate, [Sn(C4H9)2(C14H11N2O3)2]·0.5C6H6, exhibit the usual skew-trapezoidal bipyramidal coordination geometry observed for related complexes of this class. Each structure has two independent molecules of the SnIVcomplex in the asymmetric unit. In the dimethyltin structure, intermolecular O—H...O hydrogen bonds and a very weak Sn...O interaction link the independent molecules into dimers. The planar carboxylate ligands lend themselves to π–π stacking interactions and the diversity of supramolecular structural motifs formed by these interactions has been examined in detail for these two structures and four closely related analogues. While there are some recurring basic motifs amongst the observed stacking arrangements, such as dimers and step-like chains, variations through longitudinal slipping and inversion of the direction of the overlay add complexity. The π–π stacking motifs in the two title complexes are combinations of some of those observed in the other structures and are the most complex of the structures examined.

The title compound, C15H16N2O2S, contains a five-membered thiophene ring fused to a benzene ring and a substituted pyrimidinone ring. All three rings in each of the independent molecules of the asymmetric unit lie in approximately the same plane. The crystal structure is stabilized by intermolecular C—H...O hydrogen bonding and π–π stacking interactions.

The asymmetric unit of the title compound, C22H25F2N4O2, contains two crystallographically independent molecules. In one molecule, the two benzene rings are oriented at a dihedral angle of 1.93 (10)° and in the other molecule the corresponding dihedral angle is 7.19 (9)°. The piperidine rings in the two molecules adopt a similar distorted chair conformation, and both have pseudo-mirror planes passing through the N—O bonds. An intramolecular O—H...N hydrogen bond between the hydroxy group and the imine N atom is observed in both molecules. In the crystal, weak C—H...O and C—H...F hydrogen bonds, enclosingR22(6) ring motifs, and weak π–π stacking interactions link the molecules into a three-dimensional supramolecular network, with centroid-to-centroid distances between the nearly parallel phenyl and benzene rings of adjacent molecules of 3.975 (2) and 3.782 (2) Å.

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.

In the title compound, C13H13NO4, the asymmetric unit contains four independent molecules, each exhibiting an intramolecular N—H...O hydrogen bond. The ethyl group in one of the four molecules is disordered, with a refined occupancy ratio of 0.295 (16):0.705 (16). A face-to-face stacking interaction is found between the benzene rings of the quinoline units of two of the molecules [centroid–centroid distance = 3.541 (2) Å], which are sandwiched by the other two molecules through N—H...O hydrogen bonding. In the crystal, the sandwiched molecules are assembledviastacking interactions along theb-axis direction with their translation-symmetry equivalents [centroid–centroid distance = 3.529 (2) Å], and are further linked through N—H...O hydrogen bonding. The other two molecules are linkedviastacking interactions with their inversion-symmetry equivalents [centroid–centroid distances = 3.512 (3) and 3.716 (4) Å] andviaN—H...O hydrogen bonding.

The title compound, C16H8Cl4O2, crystallizes with two independent molecules in the asymmetric unit. Both molecules have aZconformation around the central double bond and they show significantly different C—C—C—O torsion angles between the aromatic ring and the carbonyl group [30.1 (7) and 3.9 (7)° in one molecule and 23.5 (7) and 9.3 (8)° in the other]. The crystal packing shows short halogen Cl...O [3.003 (5) and 3.246 (4) Å] and Cl...Cl [3.452 (2) Å] contacts and aromatic C—H...Cl and C—H...O interactions link the molecules, resulting in chains propogating along [100]. The crystal structure also features π–π stacking interactions between aromatic units of the two independent molecules, with a centroid–centroid distance of 3.9264 (6) Å.

The asymmetric unit of the title compound, C17H13N5O, comprises four independent molecules (A–D). The respective interplanar angles between the phenyl/oxadiazole/methyltriazole/phenyl rings for the four independent molecules are A 8.8 (2), 13.0 (2), 22.5 (2)°; B 6.3 (2), 8.9 (2), 29.0 (1)°; C 4.0 (2), 10.0 (2), 24.5 (2)°; D 3.5 (2), 10.1 (2), 27.2 (2)°. In the crystal, molecules form two separate stacks parallel to the b-axis direction: one consists of A and D molecules, and the other of B and C molecules. Aromatic π–π stacking is observed within each stack, with the shortest centroid–centroid separation being 3.552 (2) Å.

The asymmetric unit of the title compound, C8H6N4S, consists of two independent molecules differing in the orientation of the side chain. In the crystal, molecules form dimers through N—H...N hydrogen bonds. The dimers stack along thea-axis direction with weak π–π stacking interactions [centroid–centroid distances of 3.898 (2) and 3.908 (2) Å]. The crystal studied was refined as a two-component twin.

The asymmetric unit of the title compound, C16H14N2O, contains three independent molecules differing primarily in the orientations of the benzyl groups. Each independent molecule forms inversion related dimersviaoffset π-stacking interactions. For two of these dimers, stacks are formed approximately along thea-axis direction by a combinations of C—H...N and C—H...π(ring) contacts, in addition to the offset π-stacking interactions. The third set of dimers are also stacked in the same direction but only by pairwise C—H...N hydrogen bonds.

Isomeric 5-bromo-3-nitrosalicylaldehyde phenylhydrazone and 3-bromo-5-nitrosalicylaldehyde phenylhydrazone, C13H10BrN3O3, both crystallize with two molecules in the asymmetric unit. In both isomers, an intramolecular O—H...N hydrogen bond links the hydroxy group and the imine N atom. In the 5-bromo-3-nitro isomer, there are two independent N—H...O hydrogen-bonded chains, each molecule in the asymmetric unit forming its own chain. These chains are then linked to form a three-dimensional framework by a combination of weak C—H...O, C—H...Br, C—H...π and π–π stacking interactions. In the 3-bromo-5-nitro isomer, N—H...O hydrogen bonds link the independent molecules alternately into a zigzag chain, which is reinforced by a weak C—H...O interaction. Individual chains are linked by a C—H...Br interaction and a three-dimensional framework is generated by π–π stacking interactions.
