The crystal structure of hydroxytropylium chloride, C7H6OH+·Cl−, the hydrochloride salt of tropone, is described, which represents the first crystallographic characterization of an unfunctionalized hydroxytropylium ion. Crystals were obtained serendipitously from a sample of chlorotropylium chloride after partial hydrolysis. This highlights the role of hydroxytropylium ions as an intermediate in the hydrolytic decomposition of halotropylium halides to tropone. The solid-state structure consists of layers, in which the hydroxytropylium and chloride ions interact via both strong hydrogen bonds formed by the hydroxy protons and weaker hydrogen bonds formed by the tropylium protons to produce a two-dimensional network.

The chemical preparation, crystal structure and spectroscopic characterization of [C9H28N4][Bi2Cl10].H2O have been reported. This compound crystallizes in the monoclinic system in space group P21/c and cell parameters a = 12.2385 (6), b = 17.3062 (7), c = 13.0772 (6) Å, β = 104.475 (5)°, Z = 4 and V = 2681.9 (2) Å3. Its crystal structure has been determined and refined to R = 0.049, using 5848 independent reflections. The atomic arrangement can be described by an alternation of organic and inorganic layers. The inorganic layer built up of [Bi2Cl10]4– bioctahedra arranged in sandwich between the organic layer. The organic groups are interconnected by the water molecules through N-H…O(W) hydrogen bonds to form infinite zig-zag chains spreading along the b-axis. These Chains are themselves interconnected by means of the N–H…Cl hydrogen bonds originating from [Bi2Cl10]4– anions, to form a three-dimensional network. Intermolecular Cl…Cl interactions between adjacent dimeric [Bi2Cl10]4– anions have been observed. The compound was also characterized by FT-IR and Raman spectrscopies.

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.

In the title compound, [Cd2(C6H9N3O2)2Cl6], the coordination polyhedra around the CdII cations are distorted trigonal bipyramids. Two of the chloride ions (one axial and one equatorial) are bridging to the other metal atom, leading to a Cd...Cd separation of 3.9162 (4) Å. The O atom of the L-histidinium cation lies in an axial site. In the crystal, numerous N—H...Cl, N—H...O, C—H...O and C—H...Cl hydrogen bonds link the molecules into a three-dimensional network. Theoretical calculations and spectroscopic data are available as supporting information.

AbstractWe report here the crystal and electronic structure of a new spiro-derivative, namely methyl (2R,4S)- 4-(benzothiazol-2-ylamino)-8,8´-dimethoxyspiro[chroman-2,2´-chromene]-3´-carboxylate (I), C28H24N2O6S, which crystallizes as racemate in the space group C2/c. In this compound, the chromanone moiety consists of a benzene ring fused with a six-membered heterocyclic ring which adopts a distorted half-chair conformation. The molecules are linked by a combination of N-H∙∙∙N hydrogen bonds and weak C-H∙∙∙O, C-H∙∙∙S, C-H∙∙∙ π, inter- and intra-molecular interactions resulting in a two-dimensional network in the crystal structure.

The crystal structure of tofacitinib dihydrogen citrate (tofacitinib citrate) has been solved and refined using synchrotron X-ray powder diffraction data, and optimized using density functional techniques. Tofacitinib dihydrogen citrate crystallizes in space group P212121 (#19) with a = 5.91113(1), b = 12.93131(3), c = 30.43499(7) Å, V = 2326.411(6) Å3, and Z = 4. The crystal structure consists of corrugated layers perpendicular to the c-axis. Within the layers, cation⋯anion and anion⋯anion hydrogen bonds link the fragments into a two-dimensional network parallel to the ab-plane. Between the layers, there are only van der Waals contacts. A terminal carboxylic acid group in the citrate anion forms a strong charge-assisted hydrogen bond to the ionized central carboxylate group. The other carboxylic acid acts as a donor to the carbonyl group of the cation. The citrate hydroxy group forms an intramolecular charge-assisted hydrogen bond to the ionized central carboxylate. Two protonated nitrogen atoms in the cation act as donors to the ionized central carboxylate of the anion. These hydrogen bonds form a ring with the graph set symbol R2,2(8). The powder pattern has been submitted to ICDD® for inclusion in the Powder Diffraction File™ (PDF®).

In the title compound, C10H6N4O5S, the mean plane of the non-H atoms of the central amide fragment C—N—C(=O)—C [r.m.s. deviation = 0.0294 Å] forms dihedral angles of 12.48 (7) and 46.66 (9)° with the planes of the thiazole and benzene rings, respectively. In the crystal, molecules are linked by N—H...O hydrogen bonds, forming chains along [001]. In addition, weak C—H...O hydrogen bonds link these chains, forming a two-dimensional network, containingR44(28) ring motifs parallel to (100).

The molecular shape of the title compound, C16H12O7, is bent around the central CH2—O bond. The two benzene rings are almost perpendicular to one another, making a dihedral angle of 87.78 (7)°. In the crystal, each molecule is linked to three others by three pairs of O—H...O hydrogen bonds, forming undulating sheets parallel to thebcplane and enclosingR22(8) ring motifs. The sheets are linked by C—H...O hydrogen bonds and C—H...π interactions, forming a three-dimensional network.

In an attempt to brominate 1,4-dipropoxy-9,10-anthraquinone, a mixture of products, including the title compound, C14H7BrO4, was obtained. The molecule is essentially planar (r.m.s. deviation = 0.029 Å) and two intramolecular O—H...O hydrogen bonds occur. In the crystal, the molecules are linked by weak C—H...O hydrogen bonds, Br...O contacts [3.240 (5) Å], and π–π stacking interactions [shortest centroid–centroid separation = 3.562 (4) Å], generating a three-dimensional network.

The room-temperature single-crystal X-ray structural characterization of the title compound (tpyH2)2[Tb(OH2)8]Cl7.~2⅓H2O is recorded. Crystals are triclinic, Pī , a 17.063(5), b 16.243(3), c 7.878(3) Ǻ, α 84.78(2), β 84.39(3), γ 87.81(2)°, Z = 2 formula units; 3167 'observed' diffractometer reflections were refined by full-matrix least-squares procedures to a residual of 0.057. Notable features of interest of the compound are the 'chelation' of chloride ions by the terpyridinium cations , and the existence of a free [Tb(OH2)8]2+ cation in the presence of an abundance of chloride ions.
