AbstractThree donor/acceptor complexes between halide anion donors and the triiodomethane acceptor with tetraphenylphosphonium countercations, {(H5C6)4P⊕ X⊖ ··· I3CH)} (X⊖ = Cl⊖ , Br⊖, I⊖ ) could be crystallized and their structures determined at low temperature. Their crystal packing motifs are donor/acceptor layers of halide anion/triiodomethane patterns and phenyl/ phenyl interacting tetraphenylphosphonium cation chains. Structure comparison and discussion are based on literature-known analogous adducts with organoammonium salts as well as the phenyl/phenyl interactions in the numerous tetraphenylphosphonium salts registered in the Cambridge Structural Database. The results add novel facets to the selforganization phenomena observed on crystallization of halogen compounds and halide salts.

Four donor/acceptor complexes between halide anion donors and the tetraiodoethene acceptor molecule with tetra(n-butyl)ammoniumcountercations, {(H9C4)4N⊕X⊖···I2C=CI2)} (X⊖ = Cl⊖, Br⊖, I⊖, SCN⊖) could be crystallized from acetone solutions of the components R4N⊕X⊖ and I2C=CI2 by using low gradient techniques, and their structures determined at low temperature. Their molecule packing motif are layers of halide anion/tetraiodoethene patterns, which are penetrated by one of the four R4N⊕ n-butyl chains. The structure comparison, including analogous ones from an extensive Cambridge Structural Database search, discusses the geminal or vicinal addition to dimer subunits {X⊖···I2C=CI2}2 as well as their ribbon formation via additional contacts X⊖···I, and the effects of the voluminous R4N⊕ countercations. Altogether some light is shedded on essential facets of the fascinating self-assembly comprising an electron-rich halide anion and a polyiodo acceptor molecule.

Two donor/acceptor complexes between halide anion donors and the tetraiodothiophene acceptor with tetra(n-butyl)ammonium countercations, {(H9C4)4N⊕X⊖···(IC)4Sg (X⊖ = I⊖, SCN⊖) could be crystallized from acetone solutions of the components R4N⊕X$ and (IC)4S by using low-gradient techniques. Low temperature structural studies revealed that the molecule packing motifs are layers of halide anion/tetraiodothiophene patterns penetrated each by one of the four R4N⊕ n-butyl chains. The structure discussion emphasizes observed regularities such as the preferred coordination X⊖···I by the polyiodo acceptor molecules to dimers, followed by the additional aggregation to layers and the inclusion of one n-butyl chain fromeach voluminous R4N⊕ countercation. Especially this effect could be an essential crystallization principle for the fascinating self-assembly comprising a halide anion and a polyiodo acceptor molecule.

Four donor/acceptor complex phosphoniumhalide salts [(H6C5)4P⊕{X⊖···I4MA}] have been crystallized from chloroform solutions of the components (H6C5)4P⊕X⊖ (X⊖ =Br⊖, I⊖, SCN⊖) and the acceptor molecules MAI4 tetraiodoethene, -thiophene, as well as -N-methylpyrrole by using low-gradient techniques and their low-temperature structures determined. The discussion includes analogous salts with the more flexible tetra(n-butyl)ammonium cation and centers on Br$ coordination to tetraiodothiophene, dimer {X⊖···(IC)4NR}2 disordering in the two tetraiodopyrrole salt, the band structures as well as the donor/acceptor complexes formed with bidentate SCN⊖ anions. The regularities detected in the rather complex molecule packing features add essential aspects to the self-aggregation of polyiodo acceptor molecules and electron- rich donor anions in halide salts with rigid tetraphenylphosphonium and more flexible tetra(n-butyl)ammonium cations.

The revived interest in halogen bonding as a tool in pharmaceutical cocrystals and drug design has indicated that cyano–halogen interactions could play an important role. The crystal structures of four closely related δ-keto esters, which differ only in the substitution at a single C atom (by H, OMe, Cl and Br), are compared, namely ethyl 2-cyano-5-oxo-5-phenyl-3-(piperidin-1-yl)pent-2-enoate, C19H22N2O3, (1), ethyl 2-cyano-5-(4-methoxyphenyl)-5-oxo-3-(piperidin-1-yl)pent-2-enoate, C20H24N2O4, (2), ethyl 5-(4-chlorophenyl)-2-cyano-5-oxo-3-(piperidin-1-yl)pent-2-enoate, C19H21ClN2O3, (3), and the previously published ethyl 5-(4-bromophenyl)-2-cyano-5-oxo-3-(piperidin-1-yl)pent-2-enoate, C19H21BrN2O3, (4) [Maurya, Vasudev & Gupta (2013).RSC Adv.3, 12955–12962]. The molecular conformations are very similar, while there are differences in the molecular assemblies. Intermolecular C—H...O hydrogen bonds are found to be the primary interactions in the crystal packing and are present in all four structures. The halogenated derivatives have additional aromatic–aromatic interactions and cyano–halogen interactions, further stabilizing the molecular packing. A database analysis of cyano–halogen interactions using the Cambridge Structural Database [CSD; Groom & Allen (2014).Angew. Chem. Int. Ed.53, 662–671] revealed that about 13% of the organic molecular crystals containing both cyano and halogen groups have cyano–halogen interactions in their packing. Three geometric parameters for the C—X...N[triple-bond]C interaction (X = F, Cl, Br or I),viz.the N...Xdistance and the C—X...N and C—N...Xangles, were analysed. The results indicate that all the short cyano–halogen contacts in the CSD can be classified as halogen bonds, which are directional noncovalent interactions.

This paper discusses the synthesis and structure of a complex compound based on 3,5-diamino-1H-1,2,4-triazole (guanazole) with gallium ions, formed by the interaction of anhydrous gallium (III) chloride and guanazole in dried methanol. After distilling off the solvent under vacuum, the resulting product was washed with hexane, acetone. The target compound was extracted with acetonitrile, and slow evaporation of the latter at room temperature for three days resulted in beige-colored crystals, which were characterized by IR spectroscopy, elemental analysis, mass-spectrometry and X-ray diffraction analysis. The complex composition of gallate, C2H6N5+∙[GaCl4], exists as two crystallographically independent cations and two anions. The complex compound crystallizes in the centrosymmetric space group of the monoclinic syngony. The tetrachlorogallate anion is a slightly distorted tetrahedron, which is typical of structures of this type. 1,2,4-triazolium cations are selectively protonated on the N4 and N4A atoms, however, the site of the preferential localization of the positive charge is the N2 and N2A atoms. In addition to the electrostatic interaction of oppositely charged ions, a developed system of hydrogen bonds plays an important role in the stabilization of the crystal packing: almost all hydrogen and chlorine atoms are involved in its formation. Each of the crystallographically independent cations forms a centrosymmetric dimer due to the intermolecular hydrogen bond N2 – H2···N3 and N2A – H2A···N3A.  A full set of X-ray data is deposited into the Cambridge Structural Database of Compounds - the Cambridge Structural Database (Contributor CCDC 1894815) and it can be gotten from the site www.ccdc.cam.ac.uk/data_request/cif.

The hydrogen-bond networks and crystal packing of 81 unique secondary di- and polyamides in the Cambridge Structural Database are investigated. Graph-set analysis, as implemented in the RPluto program, is used to classify network motifs. These have been rationalized in terms of the relative dispositions of the amide groups. Peptide and retropeptides exhibit significant conformational flexibility, which permits alternative hydrogen-bonding patterns. In peptides, dihedral angles of −ψ ≃ φ ≃ 105° allow an antiparallel ladder arrangement, containing rings of either the same or alternating sizes. For retropeptides, and diamides with an odd number of CH2 spacers, this conformation leads to a parallel ladder with rings of equal size. If φ approaches −60° and ψ 180°, ladders adopt a helical twist, and if the conformation is distorted further, a three-dimensional network is usually adopted. Diamides with aromatic or an even number of CH2 spacers generally form either antiparallel ladders or sheets, although some exhibit both polymorphs. Symmetry relationships within and between hydrogen-bonded chains, ladders and sheets in the crystal packing have also been analysed. Polyamides form considerably more complex networks, although many of the structural motifs present in the diamides occur as components of these networks.

The survey of the shortest contacts in structures deposited in the Cambridge Structural Database shows that chalcogen...halogen, halogen...halogen and chalcogen...chalcogen interactions can compete as cohesion forces in molecular crystals. The smallest parameter δ (defined as the interatomic distance minus the sum of relevant van der Waals radii) for Ch...X contacts between chalcogens (Ch: S, Se) and halogens (X: F, Cl, Br, I) is present only in 0.86% out of 30 766 deposited structures containing these atoms. Thus, in less than 1% of these structures can the Ch...X forces be considered as the main type of cohesion forces responsible for the molecular arrangement. Among the 263 structures with the shortest Ch...X contact, there are four crystals where no contacts shorter than the sums of van der Waals radii are present (so-called loose crystals). The smallest δ criterion has been used for distinguishing between the bonding (covalent bond) and non-bonding contacts and for validating the structural models of crystals.
