Four 2,2′-bisindolylmethanes (BIMs), a useful class of polyindolyl species joined to a central carbon, were synthesized using salicylaldehyde derivatives and simple acid catalysis; these are 2-[bis(3-methyl-1H-indol-2-yl)methyl]-6-methylphenol, (IIa), 2-[bis(3-methyl-1H-indol-2-yl)methyl]-4,6-dichlorophenol, (IIb), 2-[bis(3-methyl-1H-indol-2-yl)methyl]-4-nitrophenol, (IIc), and 2-[bis(3-methyl-1H-indol-2-yl)methyl]-4,6-di-tert-butylphenol, (IId). BIMs (IIa) and (IIb) were characterized crystallographically as the dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) disolvates, i.e. C26H24N2O·2C2H6OS and C25H20Cl2N2O·2C2H6OS, respectively. Both form strikingly similar one-dimensional hydrogen-bonding chain motifs with the DMSO solvent molecules. BIM (IIa) packs into double layers of chains whose orientations alternate every double layer, while (IIb) forms more simply packed chains along the a axis. BIM (IIa) has a remarkably long c axis.

The biologically active title compounds have been isolated fromHibiscus sabdariffaplants, hibiscus acid as a dimethyl sulfoxide monosolvate [systematic name: (2S,3R)-3-hydroxy-5-oxo-2,3,4,5-tetrahydrofuran-2,3-dicarboxylic acid dimethyl sulfoxide monosolvate], C6H6O7·C2H6OS, (I), and hibiscus acid dimethyl ester [systematic name: dimethyl (2S,3R)-3-hydroxy-5-oxo-2,3,4,5-tetrahydrofuran-2,3-dicarboxylate], C8H10O7, (II). Compound (I) forms a layered structure with alternating layers of lactone and solvent molecules, that include a two-dimensional hydrogen-bonding construct. Compound (II) has two crystallographically independent and conformationally similar molecules per asymmetric unit and forms a one-dimensional hydrogen-bonding construct. The known absolute configuration for both compounds has been confirmed.

The preferred hydrogen-bonding patterns in the crystal structures of 5-propyl-2-thiouracil, C7H10N2OS, (I), 5-methoxy-2-thiouracil, C5H6N2O2S, (II), 5-methoxy-2-thiouracil–N,N-dimethylacetamide (1/1), C5H6N2O2S·C4H9NO, (IIa), 5,6-dimethyl-2-thiouracil, C6H8N2OS, (III), 5,6-dimethyl-2-thiouracil–1-methylpyrrolidin-2-one (1/1), C6H8N2OS·C5H9NO, (IIIa), 5,6-dimethyl-2-thiouracil–N,N-dimethylformamide (2/1), 2C6H8N2OS·C3H7NO, (IIIb), 5,6-dimethyl-2-thiouracil–N,N-dimethylacetamide (2/1), 2C6H8N2OS·C4H9NO, (IIIc), and 5,6-dimethyl-2-thiouracil–dimethyl sulfoxide (2/1), 2C6H8N2OS·C2H6OS, (IIId), were analysed. All eight structures containR22(8) patterns. In (II), (IIa), (III) and (IIIa), they are formed by two N—H...S hydrogen bonds, and in (I) by alternating pairs of N—H...S and N—H...O hydrogen bonds. In contrast, the structures of (IIIb), (IIIc) and (IIId) contain `mixed'R22(8) patterns with one N—H...S and one N—H...O hydrogen bond, as well asR22(8) motifs with two N—H...O hydrogen bonds.

The crystal structures ofN′-aminopyridine-2-carboximidamide (C6H8N4),1, andN′-{[1-(pyridin-2-yl)ethylidene]amino}pyridine-2-carboximidamide (C13H13N5),2, are described. The non-H atoms in compound1are nearly planar (r.m.s. deviation from planarity = 0.0108 Å), while2is twisted about the central N—N bond by 17.8 (2)°. Both molecules are linked by intermolecular N—H...N hydrogen-bonding interactions;1forms a two-dimensional hydrogen-bonding network and for2the network is a one-dimensional chain. The bond lengths of these molecules are similar to those in other literature reports of azine and diimine systems.

One hundred 4,4′-disubstituted benzenesulfonamidobenzenes, X–C6H5–SO2–NH–C6H5–Y, where X, Y = NO2, CN, CF3, I, Br, Cl, F, H, Me, OMe, have been synthesized and their crystal structures determined. The resulting set of 133 structures, which includes polymorphic forms, is used to make a comparative study of the molecular packing and the nature of the intermolecular interactions, including the formation of hydrogen-bonding motifs and the influence of the two substituents X and Y on these features. Nine distinct supramolecular connectivity motifs of hydrogen bonding are encountered. There are 74% of all the structures investigated which exhibit one of two motifs based on N—H...O=S interactions, a dimer or a chain. There are three other, infrequent motifs, also employing N—H...O=S links, which exhibit more complexity. Four different chain motifs result from either N—H...O=N, N—H...C[triple-bond]N or N—H...OMe interactions, arising from the presence of a nitro (position Y), nitrile (X or Y) or methoxy (Y) substituent. The program XPac [Gelbrich & Hursthouse (2005). CrystEngComm, 7, 324–336] was used to systematically analyse the packing relationships between crystal structures. Similar discrete (zero-dimensional) and extended (one-dimensional and two-dimensional) structure components, as well as cases of isostructurality were identified. A hierarchy for the classification of the 56 distinct structure types of this set is presented. The most common type, a series of 22 isostructures containing the simple centrosymmetric N—H...O=S-bonded dimer, is discussed in detail.

The one-dimensional plasma double layer is modelled by numerically integrating the time-dependent Vlasov and Poisson equations. A constant magnetic field at an arbitrary angle with respect to the layer is included. The model shows that such a plasma region can generate as well as reflect Langmuir waves and shows how RF emission may arise. An axial magnetic field does not inhibit the formation of a double layer, although a non-axial field may do so.

The study of ternary systems is interesting because it introduces the concept of molecular preference/competition into the system where one molecule may be displaced because the association between the other two is significantly stronger. Current definitions of a tertiary system indicate that solvent molecules are excluded from the molecule count of the system and some of the latest definitions state that any molecule that is not a solid in the parent form at room temperature should also be excluded from the molecule count. In the structure of the quinoline adduct hydrate of tryptaminium 3,5-dinitrobenzoate, 3C10H13N2+·3C7H3N2O6−·2C9H7N·2H2O, the asymmetric unit comprises multiple cation and anion species which are conformationally similar among each type set. In the crystal, a one-dimensional hydrogen-bonded supramolecular structure is generated through extensive intra- and inter-unit aminium N—H...O and N—H...N, and water O—H...O hydrogen bonds. Within the central-core hydrogen-bonding associations, conjoined cyclicR44(10),R53(10) andR44(12) motifs are generated. The unit is expanded into a one-dimensional column-like polymer extending along [010]. Present also in the crystal packing of the structure are a total of 19 π–π interactions involving both cation, anion and quinoline species [ring-centroid separation range = 3.395 (3)–3.797 (3) Å], as well as a number of weak C—H...O hydrogen-bonding associations. The presence of the two water molecules in the crystal structure is considered to be the principal causative factor in the low symmetry of the asymmetric unit.

Having reference to an elongated structural modification of 2,2′-bis(hydroxydiphenylmethyl)biphenyl, (I), the two 1,1′:4′,1′′-terphenyl-based diol hosts 2,2′′-bis(hydroxydiphenylmethyl)-1,1′:4′,1′′-terphenyl, C44H34O2, (II), and 2,2′′-bis[hydroxybis(4-methylphenyl)methyl]-1,1′:4′,1′′-terphenyl, C48H42O2, (III), have been synthesized and studied with regard to their crystal structures involving different inclusions,i.e.(II) with dimethylformamide (DMF), C44H34O2·C2H6NO, denoted (IIa), (III) with DMF, C48H42O2·C2H6NO, denoted (IIIa), and (III) with acetonitrile, C48H42O2·CH3CN, denoted (IIIb). In the solvent-free crystals of (II) and (III), the hydroxy H atoms are involved in intramolecular O—H...π hydrogen bonding, with the central arene ring of the terphenyl unit acting as an acceptor. The corresponding crystal structures are stabilized by intermolecular C—H...π contacts. Due to the distinctive acceptor character of the included DMF solvent species in the crystal structures of (IIa) and (IIIa), the guest molecule is coordinated to the hostviaO—H...O=C hydrogen bonding. In both crystal structures, infinite strands composed of alternating host and guest molecules represent the basic supramolecular aggregates. Within a given strand, the O atom of the solvent molecule acts as a bifurcated acceptor. Similar to the solvent-free cases, the hydroxy H atoms in inclusion structure (IIIb) are involved in intramolecular hydrogen bonding, and there is thus a lack of host–guest interaction. As a result, the solvent molecules are accommodated as C—H...N hydrogen-bonded inversion-symmetric dimers in the channel-like voids of the host lattice.

Herein, we describe the preparation of heteronuclear dirhodium-silver complexes by reaction between molecular Rh(II)-Rh(II) compounds [Rh2(μ-O2CR)4L2] (R = Me, Ph (1), CH2OEt (2); L = solvent molecules) with paddlewheel structure and PPh4[Ag(CN)2]. One-dimensional coordination polymers of (PPh4)n[Rh2(μ-O2CR)4Ag(CN)2]n (R = Me (3), Ph (4), CH2OEt (5)) formula have been obtained by replacement of the two labile molecules in the axial positions of the paddlewheel structures by a [Ag(CN)2]− bridging unit. The crystal structures of 3–5 display a similar arrangement, having anionic chains with a wavy structure and bulky (PPh4)+ cations placed between the chains. The presence of the (PPh4)+ cations hinders the existence of intermolecular Ag-Ag interactions although several C-H····π interactions have been observed. A similar reaction between [Rh2(μ-O2CCMe3)4(HO2CCMe3)2] and PPh4[Ag(CN)2] led to the molecular compound (PPh4)2{Rh2(μ-O2CCMe3)4[Ag(CN)2]2} (6) by replacement of the axial HO2CCMe3 ligands by two [Ag(CN)2]− units. The trimethylacetate ligand increases the solubility of the complex during the crystallization favouring the formation of discrete heteronuclear species.

The crystal structures of the hydrochloride salts of nine substituted tryptamines, namely, 1-methyltryptammonium chloride, C11H15N2 +·Cl−, (1), 2-methyl-1-phenyltryptammonium chloride, C17H19N2 +·Cl−, (2), 5-methoxytryptammonium chloride, C11H15N2O+·Cl−, (3), 5-bromotryptammonium chloride, C10H12BrN2 +·Cl−, (4), 5-chlorotryptammonium chloride, C10H12ClN2 +·Cl−, (5), 5-fluorotryptammonium chloride, C10H12FN2 +·Cl−, (6), 5-methyltryptammonium chloride, C11H15N2 +·Cl−, (7), 6-fluorotryptammonium chloride, C10H12FN2 +·Cl−, (8), and 7-methyltryptammonium chloride, C11H15N2 +·Cl−, (9), are reported. The seven tryptamines with N—H indoles, (3)–(9), show very similar structures, with N—H...Cl hydrogen-bonding networks forming two-dimensional sheets in the crystals. These sheets are combinations of R 4 2(8) and R 4 2(18) rings, and C 2 1(4) and C 2 1(9) chains. Substitution at the indole N atom reduces the dimensionality of the hydrogen-bonding network, with compounds (1) and (2) demonstrating one-dimensional chains that are a combination of different rings and parallel chains.
