Strontium hydroxide octahydrate Sr(OH)2 · 8 H2O crystallizes in the tetragonal space group P4/ncc with cell constants a = 9.017(1) and c = 11.603(1) Å . The crystal structure has been refined from 2656 diffractometer data up to 2ϑ = 60° to an R value of 0.0303. With the new diffraction data it was possible to localize the positions of all hydrogen atoms for the first time and to describe the hydrogen bonding scheme in detail. The Sr2+ ions are square antiprismatically coordinated by eight water molecules. These {Sr(H2O)8}2+ coordination polyhedra are linked with each other via hydrogen bonds in a way that linear columns parallel to the c axis result. The two hydroxyl anions of the asymmetric unit are linked by weak hydrogen bonds and are not coordinated to strontium atoms. Like the strontium atoms, they form linear chains parallel to the c axis. Both, {Sr(H2O)8}2+ columns and OH- chains, are interconnected through two types of additional hydrogen bonds.

N,N-Dimethylglycine, C4H9NO2, and its hemihydrate, C4H9NO2·0.5H2O, are discussed in order to follow the effect of the methylation of the glycine amino group (and thus its ability to form several hydrogen bonds) on crystal structure, in particular on the possibility of the formation of hydrogen-bonded `head-to-tail' chains, which are typical for the crystal structures of amino acids and essential for considering amino acid crystals as mimics of peptide chains. Both compounds crystallize in centrosymmetric space groups (PbcaandC2/c, respectively) and have twoN,N-dimethylglycine zwitterions in the asymmetric unit. In the anhydrous compound, there are no head-to-tail chains but the zwitterions formR44(20) ring motifs, which are not bonded to each other by any hydrogen bonds. In contrast, in the crystal structure ofN,N-dimethylglycinium hemihydrate, the zwitterions are linked to each other by N—H...O hydrogen bonds into infiniteC22(10) head-to-tail chains, while the water molecules outside the chains provide additional hydrogen bonds to the carboxylate groups.

The title compound belongs to space group P21/c with a = 23.99(1), b = 4.245(2), c = 25.98(1) Å, β = 117.58(7)°, and Z = 8. The structure was solved by the heavy-atom method and refined by block-diagonal least squares on 2589 independent observed reflections. All non-hydrogen atoms were refined anisotropically and some of the hydrogen atoms were located but their parameters were not refined. The final values of R and Rw were 0.042 and 0.047, respectively.The two nonequivalent mercury atoms have very similar environments. Two short Hg—Cl bonds (2.34–2.38 Å) at ∼ 165° define a quasi-molecular HgCl2 unit. Overall octahedral coordination is completed with two chloride ions at 2.76–2.84 Å and two chlorine atoms at 3.19–3.26 Å on neighboring HgCl2 quasi-molecules. HgCl6 octahedra share edges to form twofold ribbons in the b direction. This pattern of octahedra is identical with the onereported for β-NH4HgCl3. The cations are pairs of N(1)-protonated adenine molecules linked by two N(10)—H(10)… N(7) hydrogen bonds and stacked in the b direction. Water molecules act as acceptors in moderately strong hydrogen bonds with acidic protons H(1) and H(9) of adeninium ions. Other generally weaker hydrogen bonds exist between the various parts of the structure.

The crystal structure of the hexahydrate co-crystal of gallic acid and caffeine, C7H6O5·3C8H10N4O2·6H2O or GAL3CAF·6H2O, is a remarkable example of the importance of hydrate water acting as structural glue to facilitate the crystallization of two components of different stoichiometries and thus to compensate an imbalance of hydrogen-bond donors and acceptors. The water molecules provide the additional hydrogen bonds required to form a crystalline solid. Whereas the majority of hydrogen bonds forming the intermolecular network between gallic acid and caffeine are formed by crystal water, only one direct classical hydrogen bond between two molecules is formed between the carboxylic oxygen of gallic acid and the carbonyl oxygen of caffeine with d(D...A) = 2.672 (2) Å. All other hydrogen bonds either involve crystal water or utilize protonated carbon atoms as donors.

AbstractThe crystal structure of whewellite [Ca(C2O4)·H2O] and the dehydration mechanism of caoxite [Ca(C2O4)·3H2O] have been studied by means of differential thermal analysis, X-ray diffraction (powder and single-crystal) analysis and infrared analysis. The first and second analyses confirmed the direct transformation of caoxite into whewellite without an intermediate weddellite [Ca(C2O4)·2H2O] stage. Infrared spectra obtained from caoxite, weddellite and whewellite emphasize the similarity of the O–H-stretching band and O–C–O-stretching band in whewellite and caoxite and the unique bands of weddellite. The structure refinement at low temperature (123 K) reveals that all the hydrogen atoms of whewellite form hydrogen bonds and the two water molecules prop up the crystal structure by the hydrogen bonds that cause a strong anisotropy of the displacement parameter.Comparing the structural features of whewellite with those of weddellite and caoxite suggests that caoxite and whewellite have a sheet structure consisting of Ca2+ ions and oxalate ions although weddellite does not. It is additionally confirmed that the sheets of caoxite are corrugated by hydrogen bonds but whewellite has flat sheets. The corrugated sheets of caoxite would be flattened by dehydration so the direct transformation of caoxite into whewellite would not occur via weddellite. Essential for this transformation is the dehydration of interlayered water molecules in caoxite leading to the building of the crystal structure of whewellite on its intralayered water molecules. The difference in conformation of water molecules between those two crystal structures may explain the more common occurrence of whewellite than of caoxite in nature.

The crystal structure of strontium hydrogen citrate monohydrate has been solved using laboratory X-ray powder diffraction data, refined using both laboratory and synchrotron data, and optimized using density functional techniques. Strontium hydrogen citrate monohydrate crystallizes in space group C2/c (#15) with a = 25.15601(17), b = 10.90724(6), c = 6.37341(4) Å, β = 91.9846(6)°, V = 1747.704(12) Å3, and Z = 8. The Sr coordination and the hydrogen bonding result in a layered structure. The SrO8 coordination polyhedra share edges to form corrugated layers parallel to the bc-plane. Hydrogen bonds between the carboxylic acid groups and water molecules link the layers. Intermolecular hydroxyl–carboxyl hydrogen bonds also link the layers in a ring pattern with a graph set symbol R2,2(12). After storage for 2 years, partial re-crystallization occurred, to an as-yet unknown compound with a triclinic unit cell.

In the title compound, [Zn(C4H11N2)2(S2O3)2]·2H2O, two thiosulfate ions coordinate to the zinc(II) atom through the terminal S atoms. The tetrahedral coordination around the ZnII ion is completed by ligating to two N atoms of two piperazinium ions. The remaining two N atoms of the piperazinium ions are diprotonated and do not coordinate to the metal centre. In the crystal, however, they are involved in N—H...Owater and N—H...Osulfato hydrogen bonds. Together, a series of N—H...O and O—H...O hydrogen bonds, involving the O atoms of the thiosulfate ions and the water molecules as acceptors and the hydrogen atoms of the piperazinium ions and the water molecules as donors, form a three-dimensional supramolecuar structure. Within this framework there are a number of intra- and intermolecular C—H...O and C—H...S contacts present.

The crystal structure of pantoprazole sodium sesquihydrate has been solved and refined using synchrotron X-ray powder diffraction data and optimized using density functional techniques. Pantoprazole sodium sesquihydrate crystallizes in space group Pbca (#61) with a = 33.4862(6), b = 17.29311(10), c = 13.55953(10) Å, V = 7852.06(14) Å3, and Z = 16. The crystal structure is characterized by layers parallel to the bc-plane. One layer contains the Na coordination spheres. The two independent sodium ions are trigonal bipyramidal and octahedral. The NaO3N2 and NaO4N2 coordination spheres share an edge to form pairs. The sodium bond valence sums are 1.17 and 1.15. The difluoromethyl groups are probably disordered. Two water molecules act as hydrogen bond donors to pyridine nitrogen atoms and sulfoxide oxygen atoms. The third water molecule participates in bifurcated hydrogen bonds, but one of its hydrogen atoms does not participate in hydrogen bonds. The powder pattern is included in the Powder Diffraction File™ as entry 00-065-1424.

The 2-hydroxycyclohexane-1,3,5-triaminium (= H3 L 3+) cation of the title compound, 3C6H18N3O3+·8Cl−·HSO4 −·2H2O, exhibits a cyclohexane chair with three equatorial ammonium groups and one axial hydroxy group in an all-cis configuration. The hydrogen sulfate anion and two water molecules lie on or in proximity to a threefold axis and are disordered. The crystal structure features N—H...Cl and O—H...Cl hydrogen bonds. Three C 3-symmetric motifs can be identified in the structure: (i) Two chloride ions (on the C 3-axis) together with three H3 L 3+ cations constitute an [(H3 L)3Cl2]7+ cage. (ii) The lipophilic C6H6-sides of three H3 L 3+ cations, which are oriented directly towards the C 3-axis, generate a lipophilic void. The void is filled with the disordered water molecules and with the disordered part of the hydrogen sulfate ion. The hydrogen atoms of these disordered moieties were not located. (iii) Three H3 L 3+ cations together with one HSO4 − and three Cl− counter-ions form an [(HSO4)(H3 L)3Cl3]5+ cage. Looking along the C 3-axis, these three motifs are arranged in the order (cage 1)...(lipophilic void)...(cage 2). The crystal studied was found to be a racemic twin.

The title compound, [CoCd(C9H10NO2)3Cl2]·H2O, is a solvatomorph of the corresponding hemihydrate recently published by us [Nesterova et al. (2018). Appl. Cat. A, 560, 171–184]. The current structure reveals different cell parameters and space group compared with the published one while both are monoclinic with almost the same cell volume. The title compound is formed of discrete neutral dinuclear molecules with no crystallographically imposed symmetry and water molecules of crystallization. The overall geometry about the cobalt(III) ion is octahedral with an N3O3 environment; each ligand acts as a meridional ONO donor. The CdII coordination sphere approximates an irregular square pyramid with a chlorine atom at the apex. There is significant shortening of a Cd—O bond length to the oxygen atom of the methoxo group on one of the ligands [2.459 (3) Å] compared to the corresponding distance in the published structure [2.724 (7) Å], while other Cd—Cl/N/O bonds remain roughly the same. In the crystal lattice, the heterometallic molecules, which are related by the crystallographic n-glide plane and interlinked by weak hydrogen bonds to solvent water molecules, form columns along [101]. Adjacent columns lie antiparallel to each other.

The X-ray structure of ammonium decavanadate hexahydrate was redetermined at a low temperature (100 K) in order to locate the hydrogen sites and to study the hydrogen bonds. The hydrogen atoms were assigned to the appropriate atomic group, NH4 + cations, and water molecules, missing to the best of our knowledge in the literature. A kappa refinement was performed to estimate the experimental atomic charges. These charges were used to generale the electrostatic potential on the molecular surfaces of decavanadate polyanions isolated from the influence of the crystal lattice. Comparisons with previous theoretical (ab initio) calculations were made and are also discussed. .
