The simultaneous crystallization of different polymorphs, i.e. concomitant polymorphism, is a phenomenon which, when properly recognized and studied, can provide useful information for a variety of disciplines. It is rare for ruthenium complexes, although it has been observed. In the synthesis of the ruthenium(II) complex chlorido(η6-p-cymene)(dimethyl 2,2′-bypyridine-4,5-dicarboxylate-κ2 N,N′)ruthenium(II) hexafluoridophosphate, [RuCl(C10H14)(C14H12N2O4)]PF6, concomitant polymorphs were crystallized under the same conditions. The colour of both crystals was orange, but the shapes, as well as the orientation of the p-cymene and methoxycarbonyl groups, were different. The crystal structures of both isomers show approximately the same bond lengths. In the asymmetric unit, there is one cation and one anion. Due to the absence of strong hydrogen bonds, only weak intermolecular interactions were observed. The Hirshfeld surface and two-dimensional fingerprint plots of both isomers satisfactorily explain the difference in the melting points.

Two polymorphs of the title compound, C19H16N2O3, were obtained from ethanolic (polymorph I) and methanolic solutions (polymorph II), respectively. Both polymorphs crystallize in the monoclinic system with four formula units per cell and a complete molecule in the asymmetric unit. The main difference between the molecules of (I) and (II) is the reversed position of the hydroxy group of the carboxylic function. All other conformational features are found to be similar in the two molecules. The different orientation of the OH group results in different hydrogen-bonding schemes in the crystal structures of (I) and (II). Whereas in (I) intermolecular O—H...O hydrogen bonds with the pyridazinone carbonyl O atom as acceptor generate chains with a C(7) motif extending parallel to the b-axis direction, in the crystal of (II) pairs of inversion-related O—H...O hydrogen bonds with an R 2 2(8) ring motif between two carboxylic functions are found. The intermolecular interactions in both crystal structures were analysed using Hirshfeld surface analysis and two-dimensional fingerprint plots.

AbstractThe crystal structures and Hirshfeld surface analyses of the des-A-B-aromatic steroid derivative, (3a,9b)-1,2,3a,4,5,9b-hexahydro-7-methoxy-3a-methyl-3H-benz[e]-inden-3-one (or 5-methoxy-des-A-estra-5,7,9-triene-17-one) 1, its acetohydrazide derivative, 2, and its hydrazone derivative, 3, are reported. All three compounds crystallize in chiral space groups: compounds 1 and 2 in the orthorhombic space group P212121 each with one molecule in the asymmetric unit, and compound 3 in the monoclinic space group P21 with two similar but independent molecules, Mol A and Mol B, in the asymmetric unit. Both the five-membered and six-membered non-aromatic rings in all three compounds have envelope or near envelope shapes. In compounds 2 and 3 the N=N units have (E)-arrangements. The intermolecular interactions in crystals of compound 1 are C–H · · · O hydrogen bonds and C–H · · · π interactions, in compound 2 N–H · · · O and C–H · · · O hydrogen bonds and C–H · · · π interactions are present, while in compound 3 there are just C–H · · · π interactions. An important substructure in 1 is a sheet of molecules, composed of ${\rm{R}}_6^6(44)$ rings, formed from C–H · · · O(methoxy) and C–H · · · O(carbonyl) hydrogen bonds, the molecules of which form columns linked via the B and D rings, i.e. in a head-to-tail fashion. Compound 2 is an acylhydrazonyl compound, in which the two independent molecules are linked into asymmetric dimers via strong classical N–H · · · O hydrogen bonds, with the formation of ${\rm{R}}_2^2(8)$ rings. In both 1 and 2, further intermolecular interactions result in 3-dimensional structures, while compound 3 has a 1-dimensional structure arising from C–H · · · O interactions generating spiral chains. The results have been compared with existing data.

In the molecules of the title compounds, (2E)-1-(3-bromo-thiophen-2-yl)-3-(2-methoxyphenyl)prop-2-en-1-one, C14H11BrO2S, (I), which crystallizes in the space groupP-1 with four independent molecules in the asymmetric unit (Z′ = 8), and (2E)-1-(3-bromothiophen-2-yl)-3-(3,4-dimethoxyphenyl)prop-2-en-1-one, C15H13BrO3S, (II), which crystallizes withZ′ = 8 in the space groupI2/a, the non-H atoms are nearly coplanar. The molecules of (I) pack with inversion symmetry stacked diagonally along thea-axis direction. Weak C—H...Br intramolecular interactions in each of the four molecules in the asymmetric unit are observed. In (II), weak C—H...O, bifurcated three-center intermolecular interactions forming dimers along with weak C—H...π and π–π stacking interactions are observed, linking the molecules into sheets along [001]. A weak C—H...Br intramolecular interaction is also present. There are no classical hydrogen bonds present in either structure.

In the title molecular salt, C9H10N5 +·C7H7O3S−, the asymmetric unit consists of a 2,4-diamino-6-phenyl-1,3,5-triazin-1-ium cation and a 4-methylbenzenesulfonate anion. The cation is protonated at the N atom lying between the amine and phenyl substituents. The protonated N and amino-group N atoms are involved in hydrogen bonding with the sulfonate O atoms through a pair of intermolecular N—H...O hydrogen bonds, giving rise to a hydrogen-bonded cyclic motif with R 2 2(8) graph-set notation. The inversion-related molecules are further linked by four N—H...O intermolecular interactions to produce a complementary DDAA (D = donor, A = acceptor) hydrogen-bonded array, forming R 2 2(8), R 4 2(8) and R 2 2(8) ring motifs. The centrosymmetrically paired cations form R 2 2(8) ring motifs through base-pairing via N—H...N hydrogen bonds. In addition, another R 3 3(10) motif is formed between centrosymetrically paired cations and a sulfonate anion via N—H...O hydrogen bonds. The crystal structure also features weak S=O...π and π–π interactions. Hirshfeld surface and fingerprint plots were employed in order to further study the intermolecular interactions.

Abstract The crystal structures of four azines, namely 1-3-bis(4-methoxyphenyl)-2,3-diaza-1,4-butadiene, 1, 1,3-bis(2,3-dimethoxyphenyl)-2,3-diaza-1,4-butadiene, 2, 1,3-bis(2-hydroxy-3-methoxyphenyl)-2,3-diaza-1,4-butadiene, 3, and 1,3-bis(2-hydroxy-4-methoxyphenyl)-2,3-diaza-1,4-butadiene, 4, are reported. Molecules of 3 and 4, and both independent molecules of 2, Mol A and Mol B, possess inversion centers. The central C=N–N=C units in each molecule is planar with an (E,E) conformation. The intermolecular interactions found in the four compounds are C–H···O, C–H–N, C–H---π and π---π interactions. However, there is no consistent set of intermolecular interactions for the four compounds. Compound, 1, has a two-dimensional undulating sheet structure, generated from C–H···O and C–H···N intermolecular hydrogen bonds. The only recognized intermolecular interaction in 2 is a C–H···O hydrogen bond, which results in a zig-zag chain of alternating molecules, Mol A and Mol B. While 3 forms a puckered sheet of molecules, solely via C–H···π interactions, its isomeric compound, 4, has a more elaborate three-dimensional structure generated from a combination of C–H···O hydrogen bonds, C–H···π and π···π interactions. The findings in this study, based on both PLATON and Hirshfeld approaches, for the four representative compounds match well the reported structural findings in the literature of related compounds, which are based solely on geometric parameters.

The asymmetric unit of the title salt C8H22N42+·2C7H5O2−, comprises two independent pairs of half a 2,2′-(piperazine-1,4-diyl)diethanaminium dication plus a benzoate anion. The dications are symmetrical and lie across crystallographic centres of inversion. The crystal structure was refined as a two-component pseudo-merohedral twin using the twin law 001 0-10 100 [he domain fractions are 0.8645 (8) and 0.1355 (8)]. The anions and cations are linked by N—H...O hydrogen bonds and weak N—H...O intermolecular interactions to form infinite two-dimensional networks parallel to [101]. The conformation adopted by the cation in the crystal structure is very similar to that adopted by the same cation in the structures of the 2-hydroxybenzoate [Cukrowskiet al.(2012).Acta Cryst, E68, o2387], the nitrate and the tetrahydrogen pentaborate salts.

Hirshfeld surfaces and two-dimensional fingerprint plots are used to analyse the intermolecular interactions in two new phosphorothioic triamide structures, namelyN,N′,N′′-tris(3,4-dimethylphenyl)phosphorothioic triamide acetonitrile hemisolvate, P(S)[NHC6H3-3,4-(CH3)2]3·0.5CH3CN or C24H30N3PS·0.5CH3CN, (I), andN,N′,N′′-tris(4-methylphenyl)phosphorothioic triamide–3-methylpiperidinium chloride (1/1), P(S)[NHC6H4(4-CH3)]3·[3-CH3-C5H9NH2]+·Cl−or C21H24N3PS·C6H14N+·Cl−, (II). The asymmetric unit of (I) consists of two independent phosphorothioic triamide molecules and one acetonitrile solvent molecule, whereas for (II), the asymmetric unit is composed of three components (molecule, cation and anion). In the structure of (I), the different components are organized into a six-molecule aggregate through N—H...S and N—H...N hydrogen bonds. The components of (II) are aggregated into a two-dimensional array through N—H...S and N—H...Cl hydrogen bonds. Moreover, interesting features of packing arise in this structure due to the presence of a double hydrogen-bond acceptor (the S atom of the phosphorothioic triamide molecule) and of a double hydrogen-bond donor (the N—H unit of the cation). For both (I) and (II), the full fingerprint plot of each component is asymmetric as a consequence of the presence of three fragments. These analyses reveal that H...H interactions [67.7 and 64.3% for the two symmetry-independent phosphorothioic triamide molecules of (I), 30.7% for the acetonitrile solvent of (I), 63.8% in the phosphorothioic triamide molecule of (II) and 62.9% in the 3-methylpiperidinium cation of (II)] outnumber the other contacts for all the components in both structures, except for the chloride anion of (II), which only receives the Cl...H contact. The phosphorothioic triamide molecules of both structures include unsaturated C atoms, thus presenting C...H/H...C interactions: 17.6 and 21% for the two symmetry-independent phosphorothioic triamide molecules in (I), and 22.7% for the phosphorothioic triamide molecule of (II). Furthermore, the N—H...S hydrogen bonds in both (I) and (II), and the N—H...Cl hydrogen bonds in (II), are the most prominent interactions, appearing as large red spots on the Hirshfeld surface maps. The N...H/H...N contacts in structure (I) are considerable, whereas for (II), they give a negligible contribution to the total interactions in the system.

In the title compound, C15H13FN2O2, the fluorophenyl and 4-acetylphenyl rings are twisted from each other by a dihedral angle of 11.6 (2)°. In the crystal, molecules are packed into layers parallel to (010). Each layer contains the molecules linked by a pair of strong N—H...O hydrogen bonds, with an R 2 2(14) ring motif, while strong C—H...F hydrogen bonds forming R 4 2(26) ring motifs connect molecules into a two-dimensional network. The intermolecular interactions have been investigated using Hirshfeld surface studies and two-dimensional fingerprint plots.

The title compounds, C9H12O6 and C10H14O6, were formed by careful hydrolysis of the corresponding diethyl esters. Their single crystals were grown from an ethyl acetate/hexane mixture. Crystals of both compounds have monoclinic (P21) symmetry with a single molecule in the asymmetric unit. Both crystal structures are very similar and display four –CO—OH...O=C(OH)– hydrogen bonds, forming a two-dimensional double-layered framework.

The asymmetric unit of O,O′-dimethyl [(2,3,4,5,6-pentafluorophenyl)hydrazinyl]phosphonate, C8H8F5N2O3P, is composed of two symmetry-independent molecules with significant differences in the orientations of the C6F5 and OMe groups. In the crystal structure, a one-dimensional assembly is mediated from classical N—H...O hydrogen bonds, which includes R 2 2(8), D(2) and some higher-order graph-set motifs. By also considering weak C—H...O=P and C—H...O—C intermolecular interactions, a two-dimensional network extends along the ab plane. The strengths of the hydrogen bonds were evaluated using quantum chemical calculations with the GAUSSIAN09 software package at the B3LYP/6-311G(d,p) level of theory. The LP(O) to σ*(NH) and σ*(CH) charge-transfer interactions were examined according to second-order perturbation theory in natural bond orbital (NBO) methodology. The hydrogen-bonded clusters of molecules, including N—H...O and C—H...O interactions, were constructed as input files for the calculations and the strengths of the hydrogen bonds are as follows: N—H...O [R 2 2(8)] > N—H...O [D(2)] > C—H...O. The decomposed fingerprint plots show that the contribution portions of the F...H/H...F contacts in both molecules are the largest.
