2-(Benzofuran-2-yl)-2-oxoethyl 2-chlorobenzoate, C17H11ClO4 (I), and 2-(benzofuran-2-yl)-2-oxoethyl 2-methoxybenzoate, C18H14O5 (II), were synthesized under mild conditions. Their chemical and molecular structures were analyzed by spectroscopic and single-crystal X-ray diffraction studies, respectively. These compounds possess different ortho-substituted functional groups on their phenyl rings, thus experiencing extra steric repulsion force within their molecules as the substituent changes from 2-chloro (I) to 2-methoxy (II). The crystal packing of compound (I) depends on weak intermolecular hydrogen bonds and π–π interactions. Molecules are related by inversion into centrosymmetric dimers via C—H...O hydrogen bonds, and further strengthened by π–π interactions between furan rings. Conversely, molecules in compound (II) are linked into alternating dimeric chains propagating along the [101] direction, which develop into a two-dimensional plate through extensive intermolecular hydrogen bonds. These plates are further stabilized by π–π and C—H...π interactions.

The title compounds, C30H18N2O5S, (I), and C27H18N2O4S2, (II), are carbazole derivatives with a phenylsulfonyl group and a nitrophenyl group attached to the carbazole moiety in identical positions in both molecules. A benzofuran ring system in (I) and a methylthiophene ring in (II) are fused with the respective carbazole moieties on the same sides. The mean plane of the carbazole ring system makes a dihedral angle of 3.17 (7)° with the benzofuran ring system in (I) and a dihedral angle of 3.39 (11)° with the methylthiophene ring in (II), implying that both fused units are essentially planar. The mean planes of the carbazole ring systems in both the compounds are almost orthogonal to the respective nitro-substituted phenyl rings, making dihedral angles of 75.64 (10) and 77.63 (12)° in compounds (I) and (II), respectively. In (I), the phenylsulfonyl ring system is positionally disordered with a refined occupancy ratio of 0.63 (2):0.37 (2). In both compounds, the molecular structures are stabilized by intramolecular C—H...O hydrogen bonds, generatingS(6) ring motifs with the sulfone group O atoms. In the crystal of compound (I), molecules are linked by pairs of C—H...O hydrogen bonds, which generateR22(18) inversion dimers, and interconnected byC(14) chains running along thec-axis direction, whereas in compound (II), the C—H...O hydrogen bonds generateR43(37) ring motifs. In the crystals of both compounds, C—H...O hydrogen-bonded sheets are formed lying parallel to (10-1). In addition, C—H...π and offset π–π interactions [intercentroid distance = 3.7158 (14) Å in (I) and 3.9040 (15) Å in (II)] are also present in the crystals of both compounds.

The title compounds,catena-poly[[[bis[(R)-propane-1,2-diamine-κ2N,N′]copper(II)]-μ-cyanido-κ2N:C-[tris(cyanido-κC)(nitroso-κN)iron(III)]-μ-cyanido-κ2C:N] monohydrate], {[Cu(Lpn)2][Fe(CN)5(NO)]·H2O}n, (I), and poly[[hexa-μ-cyanido-κ12C:N-hexacyanido-κ6C-hexakis[(R)-propane-1,2-diamine-κ2N,N′]dichromium(III)tricopper(II)] pentahydrate], {[Cu(Lpn)2]3[Cr(CN)6]2·5H2O}n, (II) [where Lpn = (R)-propane-1,2-diamine, C3H10N2], are new chiral cyanide-bridged bimetallic coordination polymers. The asymmetric unit of compound (I) is composed of two independent cation–anion units of {[Cu(Lpn)2][Fe(CN)5)(NO)]} and two water molecules. The FeIIIatoms have distorted octahedral geometries, while the CuIIatoms can be considered to be pentacoordinate. In the crystal, however, the units align to form zigzag cyanide-bridged chains propagating along [101]. Hence, the CuIIatoms have distorted octahedral coordination spheres with extremely long semicoordination Cu—N(cyanido) bridging bonds. The chains are linked by O—H...N and N—H...N hydrogen bonds, forming two-dimensional networks parallel to (010), and the networks are linkedviaN—H...O and N—H...N hydrogen bonds, forming a three-dimensional framework. Compound (II) is a two-dimensional cyanide-bridged coordination polymer. The asymmetric unit is composed of two chiral {[Cu(Lpn)2][Cr(CN)6]}−anions bridged by a chiral [Cu(Lpn)2]2+cation and five water molecules of crystallization. Both the CrIIIatoms and the central CuIIatom have distorted octahedral geometries. The coordination spheres of the outer CuIIatoms of the asymmetric unit can be considered to be pentacoordinate. In the crystal, these units are bridged by long semicoordination Cu—N(cyanide) bridging bonds forming a two-dimensional network, hence these CuIIatoms now have distorted octahedral geometries. The networks, which lie parallel to (10-1), are linkedviaO—H...O, O—H...N, N—H...O and N—H...N hydrogen bonds involving all five non-coordinating water molecules, the cyanide N atoms and the NH2groups of the Lpn ligands, forming a three-dimensional framework.

The title salt (I), C6H8N+·C20H17O8−, comprises a 2-methylpyridinium cation and a 2,3-bis(4-methylbenzoyloxy)succinate mono-anion while the salt (II), 2C6H8N+·2C20H17O8−·5H2O, consists of a pair of 4-methylpyridinium cations and 2,3-bis(4-methylbenzoyloxy)succinate mono-anions and five water molecules of solvation in the asymmetric unit. In (I), the dihedral angle between the aromatic rings of the anion is 40.41 (15)°, comparing with 43.0 (3) and 85.7 (2)° in the conformationally dissimilar anion molecules in (II). The pyridine ring of the cation in (I) is inclined at 23.64 (16) and 42.69 (17)° to the two benzene moieties of the anion. In (II), these comparative values are 4.7 (3), 43.5 (3)° and 43.5 (3), 73.1 (3)° for the two associated cation and anion pairs. The crystal packing of (I) is stabilized by inter-ionic N—H...O, O—H...O and C—H...O hydrogen bonds as well as weak C—H...π interactions, linking the ions into infinite chains along [100]. In the crystal packing of (II), the anions and cations are also linked by N—H...O and O—H...O hydrogen bonds involving also the water molecules, giving a two-dimensional network across (001). The crystal structure is also stabilized by weak C—H...O and C—H...π interactions.

Three anisole building blocks featuring bis(hydroxymethyl) or bis(bromomethyl) pendants have been analyzed with regard to their molecular structures and packing behaviour. The compounds are ethyl 3,5-bis(hydroxymethyl)-4-methoxybenzoate, C12H16O5, (I), [5-bromo-3-(hydroxymethyl)-2-methoxyphenyl]methanol [or 4-bromo-2,6-bis(hydroxymethyl)anisole], C9H11BrO3, (II), and 5-bromo-1,3-bis(bromomethyl)-2-methoxybenzene [or 4-bromo-2,6-bis(bromomethyl)anisole], C9H9Br3O, (III). A typical supramolecular pattern involved C—H...π interactions generating molecular stacks, while π–π interactions were only observed in the absence of bromine, indicating a striking influence on the distances between adjacent aromatic moieties. When comparing bis(hydroxymethyl) compound (II) with bis(bromomethyl) compound (III), we found that the strong O—H...O hydrogen bonds in a zigzag arrangement in the first are replaced by C—H...Br interactions in the second without a change in the general packing.

The title molecular salts, C16H16NO+·PF6 −, (I), and C21H21N2 +·PF6 −, (II), are pyridine derivatives. In compound (I), the cation comprises a methyl N-substituted pyridine ring and a methoxy-substituted benzene ring connected by a C=C double bond. The F atoms of the PF6 − anion are disordered over two sets of sites with refined occupancy factors of 0.614 (7):0.386 (7). In compound (II), the cation comprises a pyridine ring attached to unsubstituted phenyl ring and a dimethylaniline ring, which are connected by a C=C double bond. The anion is PF6 −. In both salts, the cation adopts an E configuration with respect to the C=C bond. The pyridine ring makes a dihedral angle of 9.86 (12)° with the methoxy-substituted benzene ring in compound (I) and 11.2 (3)° with the dimethylamine-substituted benzene ring in compound (II). In compound (I), the crystal packing is stabilized by weak C—H...F intermolecular interactions which result in R 4 3(14) ring motifs, forming molecular sheets running parallel to (\overline{1}03). These are further stabilized by weak P—F...π interactions. In compound (II), the crystal packing is stabilized by C—H...F interactions, which result in R 6 6(40) ring motifs, forming molecular sheets running parallel to (101) and these are further connected by π–π interactions.

Structures are reported for six closely related salts of tris(bipyridyl)iron(II) cations, namely tris(2,2′-bipyridine)iron(II) bis(1,1,3,3-tetracyano-2-methoxypropenide) 0.776-hydrate, [Fe(C10H8N2)3](C8H3N4O)2.0.776H2O, (I), tris(2,2′-bipyridine)iron(II) 1,1,3,3-tetracyano-2-(propylsulfanyl)propenide perchlorate, [Fe(C10H8N2)3](C10H7N4S)(ClO4), (II), tris(5,5′-dimethyl-2,2′-bipyridine)iron(II) 1,1,3,3-tetracyano-2-methoxypropenide tetrafluoridoborate ethanol 0.926-solvate, [Fe(C12H12N2)3](C8H3N4O)(BF4).0.926C2H2O, (III), tris(5,5′-dimethyl-2,2′-bipyridine)iron(II) 1,1,3,3-tetracyano-2-ethoxypropenide tetrafluoridoborate, [Fe(C12H12N2)3](C9H5N4O)(BF4), (IV), tris(5,5′-dimethyl-2,2′-bipyridine)iron(II) 1,1,3,3-tetracyano-2-(ethylsufanyl)propenide tetrafluoridoborate, [Fe(C12H12N2)3](C9H5N4S)(BF4), (V), and tris(5,5′-dimethyl-2,2′-bipyridine)iron(II) 1,1,3,3-tetracyano-2-propoxypropenide tetrafluoridoborate, [Fe(C12H12N2)3](C10H7N4O)(BF4), (VI). In compound (I), one of the anions is disordered over two sets of atomic sites with equal occupancies while, in the second anion, just one of the C(CN)2 units is disordered, again over two sets of atomic sites with equal occupancies: the anionic components are linked by multiple C—H...N hydrogen bonds to form a three-dimensional framework. In compound (II), the polynitrile anion is disordered over two sets of atomic sites with occupancies in the approximate ratio 3:1, while the perchlorate anion is disordered over three sets of atomic sites: there are C—N...π interactions between the cations and the polynitrile anion. The polynitrile anion in compound (III) is fully ordered, but the tetrafluoridoborate anion is disordered over two sets of atomic sites with occupancies 0.671 (4) and 0.329 (4): the cations and the tetrafluoridoborate anions are linked by C—H...F interactions to form an interrupted chain. Compounds (IV) and (V) are isostructural and all of the ionic components are fully ordered in both of them: the cations and tetrafluoridoborate anions are linked into C 2 2(12) chains. The polynitrile anion in compound (VI) is disordered over two sets of atomic sites with approximately equal occupancies, and here the chains formed by the cations and the tetrafluoridoborate anions are of the C 2 2(13) type.

The asymmetric unit of compound (I) consists of two independent molecules and one of the molecules exhibits disorder of the 4-chlorobenzyl substituent with occupancies 0.6289 (17) and 0.3711 (17). Each type of molecule forms a C(8) chain motif built from N—H...N hydrogen bonds, which for the fully ordered molecule is reinforced by C—H...π interactions. In compound (II), the chlorobenzyl unit is again disordered, with occupancies 0.822 (6) and 0.178 (6), and the molecules form C(8) chains similar to those in (I), reinforced by C—H...π interactions involving only the major disorder component. The chlorobenzyl unit in compound (III) is also disordered with occupancies of 0.839 (5) and 0.161 (5). The molecules are linked by a combination of one N—H...N hydrogen bond and four C—H...π interactions, forming a three-dimensional framework.

It has been observed that when electron-rich naphthyl rings are present in chalcones they can participate in π–π stacking interactions, and this can play an important role in orientating inhibitors within the active sites of enzymes, while chalcones containing heterocyclic substituents additionally exhibit fungistatic and fungicidal properties. With these considerations in mind, three new chalcones containing 2-naphthyl substituents were prepared. 3-(4-Fluorophenyl)-1-(naphthalen-2-yl)prop-2-en-1-one, C19H13FO, (I), crystallizes withZ′ = 2 in the space groupP-1 and the four molecules in the unit cell adopt an arrangement which resembles that in the space groupP21/a. Although 3-(4-bromophenyl)-1-(naphthalen-2-yl)prop-2-en-1-one, C19H13BrO, (II), withZ′ = 1, is not isostructural with (I), the molecules of (I) and (II) adopt very similar conformations. In 1-(naphthalen-2-yl)-3-(thiophen-2-yl)prop-2-en-1-one, C17H12OS, (III), the thiophene unit is disordered over two sets of atomic sites, with occupancies of 0.780 (3) and 0.220 (3), which are related by a near 180° rotation of the thiophene unit about its exocyclic C—C bond. The molecules of compound (I) are linked by three independent C—H...π(arene) hydrogen bonds to form centrosymmetric octamolecular aggregates, whereas the molecules of compound (II) are linked into molecular ladders by a combination of C—H...π(arene) and C—Br...π(arene) interactions, and those of compound (III) are linked into centrosymmetric dimers by C—H...π(thiophene) interactions.
