A 1:1 co-crystal of trinitrotoluene (TNT) and 2,3-diaminotoluene was prepared by solvent evapo- ration, and the structure of the co-crystal was determined by single-crystal and powder X-ray diffraction. The results indicate that the main mechanism of co-crystallization originates from the intermolecular hy- drogen bonding (amino-nitro) and π-π stacking. We also examined the Hirshfeld surfaces and associated fingerprint plots of the co-crystal and reveal that the structures are stabilized by H…H, O–H, O…O and C…C (π-π) intermolecular interactions. We analyzed the crystal packing and show its influence upon im- pact sensitivity. The results highlight that co-crystallization is an effective way to modify the sensitivity, oxygen balance and density of explosives.

Single crystals of molybdenum-incorporated tris(thiourea)zinc(II) sulfate (MoZTS) are grown by the slow evaporation solution growth technique. Crystal composition as determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis reveals that it belongs to the orthorhombic system with space groupPca21and cell parametersa= 11.153 (2),b= 7.7691 (14),c= 15.408 (3) Å,V= 1335.14 (4) Å3andZ= 4. The surface morphological changes are studied by scanning electron microscopy. The vibrational patterns in FT–IR are used to identify the functional group and TGA/DTA (thermogravimetric analysis/differential thermal analysis) indicates the stability of the material. The structure and the crystallinity of the material were confirmed by powder X-ray diffraction analysis and the simulated X-ray diffraction (XRD) closely matches the experimental one with varied intensity patterns. The band gap energy is estimated using diffuse reflectance data by the application of the Kubelka–Munk algorithm. The relative second harmonic generation (SHG) efficiency measurements reveal that MoZTS has an efficiency comparable to that of tris(thiourea)zinc(II) sulfate (ZTS). Hirshfeld surfaces were derived using single-crystal X-ray diffraction data. Investigation of the intermolecular interactions and crystal packingviaHirshfeld surface analysis reveal that the close contacts are associated with strong interactions. Intermolecular interactions as revealed by the fingerprint plot and close packing could be the possible reasons for facile charge transfer leading to SHG activity.

Precision And Accuracy

The crystal structure of the monoclinic polymorph of the primary amino acid L-histidine has been determined for the first time by single-crystal neutron diffraction, while that of the orthorhombic polymorph has been reinvestigated with an untwinned crystal, improving the experimental precision and accuracy. For each polymorph, neutron diffraction data were collected at 5, 105 and 295 K. Single-crystal X-ray diffraction experiments were also performed at the same temperatures. The two polymorphs, whose crystal packing is interpreted by intermolecular interaction energies calculated using the Pixel method, show differences in the energy and geometry of the hydrogen bond formed along the c direction. Taking advantage of the X-ray diffraction data collected at 5 K, the precision and accuracy of the new Hirshfeld atom refinement method implemented in NoSpherA2 were probed choosing various settings of the functionals and basis sets, together with the use of explicit clusters of molecules and enhanced rigid-body restraints for H atoms. Equivalent atomic coordinates and anisotropic displacement parameters were compared and found to agree well with those obtained from the corresponding neutron structural models.

A new polymorph belonging to the tetrahydropyrimidinium class of compounds, namely 6-(4-chlorophenyl)-5-(methoxycarbonyl)-4-methyl-2-(3-(trifluoromethylthio)phenylamino)-3,6-dihydropyrimidin-1-ium chloride, and a hydrate of 2-(3-bromophenylamino)-6-(4-chlorophenyl)-5-(methoxycarbonyl)-4-methyl-3,6-dihydropyrimidin-1-ium chloride, have been isolated and characterized using single-crystal X-ray diffraction (XRD). A detailed comprehensive analysis of the crystal packing in terms of the associated intermolecular interactions and a quantification of their interaction energies have been performed for both forms of the two different organic salts (AandB) using X-ray crystallography and computational methods such as density functional theory (DFT) quantum mechanical calculations, PIXEL lattice-energy calculations (with decomposition of total lattice energy into the Coulombic, polarization, dispersion and repulsion contribution), the calculation of the Madelung constant (the EUGEN method), Hirshfeld and two-dimensional fingerprint plots. The presence of ionic [N—H]+...Cl−and [C—H]+...Cl−hydrogen bonds mainly stabilizes the crystal packing in both formsAandB, while in the case ofB·H2O [N—H]+...Owaterand Owater—H...Cl−hydrogen bonds along with [N—H]+...Cl−and [C—H]+...Cl−provide stability to the crystal packing. The lattice-energy calculations from both PIXEL and EUGEN methods revealed that in the case ofA, form (I) (monoclinic) is more stable whereas forBit is the anhydrous form that is more stable. The analysis of the `Madelung mode' of crystal packing of two forms ofAandBand its hydrates suggest that differences exist in the position of the charged ions/atoms in the organic solid state. TheR/E(distance–energy) plots for all the crystal structures show that the molecular pairs in their crystal packing are connected with either highly stabilizing (due to the presence of organicR+and Cl−) or highly destabilizing Coulombic contacts. The difference in crystal packing and associated intermolecular interactions between polymorphs (in the case ofA) or the hydrates (in the case ofB) have been clearly elucidated by the analysis of Hirshfeld surfaces and two-dimensional fingerprint plots. The relative contributions of the various interactions to the Hirshfeld surface for the cationic (dihydropyrimidinium) part and anionic (chloride ion) part for the two forms ofAandBand its hydrate were observed to be different.

By the reaction of benzoyl chloride, potassium isothiocyanate and the appropriate halogenoaniline, i.e. 2/3/4-(bromo/iodo)aniline, we have obtained five new 1-benzoyl-3-(halogenophenyl)thioureas, namely, 1-benzoyl-3-(2-bromophenyl)thiourea and 1-benzoyl-3-(3-bromophenyl)thiourea, C14H11BrN2OS, and 1-benzoyl-3-(2-iodophenyl)thiourea, 1-benzoyl-3-(3-iodophenyl)thiourea and 1-benzoyl-3-(4-iodophenyl)thiourea, C14H11IN2OS. Structural and conformational features of the compounds have been analyzed using X-ray diffraction and theoretical calculations. The novel compounds were characterized by solid-state IR and 1H/13C NMR spectroscopy. The conformations and intermolecular interactions, such as hydrogen bonds, π–π and S(6)...π stacking, and X...O (X = I or Br), I...S and I...π, have been examined and rationalized, together with four analogous compounds described previously in the literature. The set of nine compounds was chosen to examine how a change of the halogen atom and its position on the phenyl ring affects the molecular and crystal structures.

rac-Bis{μ-trans-2,2′-[pentane-1,5-diylbis(azanediyl)]ditroponato}dipalladium(II), [Pd2(C19H20N2O2)2], has been synthesized and fully characterized using single-crystal X-ray diffraction,1H NMR, FT–IR and mass spectroscopy. Thetranscoordination, vaulted structure andanticonformation have been unequivocally established from the X-ray diffraction studies. This is the first example of a bis(aminotroponato)palladium complex. In the crystalline state, the molecule has twofold symmetry and each molecular unit undergoes intermolecular offset π-stacking of the tropone rings to afford heterochiral interpenetrating dimers that are aligned in a lamellar manner with a herringbone packing motif.

Thiourea derivatives [N-(di-n-propylcarbamothioyl)-4-fluorobenzamide (HL1) and N-(di-n-propylcarbamothioyl)-4-bromobenzamide (HL2)] and their platinum complexes have been successfully synthesized and structurally characterized by spectroscopic 1H NMR, 13C NMR, COSY, HMQC, and FT-IR techniques. The structure of both complexes was also confirmed by single crystal X-ray diffraction studies. The study of X-ray single crystal diffraction shows that the supramolecular aggregation of the complexes is stabilized via weak interactions as well as stacking interactions such as C-H···π and π···π. The cis-[Pt(L1-S,O)2 showed C–H···π and π···π stacking interactions, whereas only C–H···π stacking interaction was observed in cis-[Pt(L2-S,O)2]. In addition, the strong classical and non-classical intermolecular hydrogen bonds are not found in the prepared complexes. Therefore, it can be said that the C–H···π and π···π stacking interactions play an important role in the formation of supramolecular structures of the complexes.

Abstract The reaction between CdCl2 and PPh2{C6H4 [CH2N(CH2CH2)2O]-2} (1) in a 1:1 molar ratio resulted in the cadmium(II) complex CdCl2[PPh2{C6H4[CH2N(CH2CH2)2O]-2}] (2). The complex 2 was characterized in solution by NMR spectroscopy (1H, 13C, and 31P). Single-crystal X-ray diffraction studies revealed no intramolecular N→P interaction in 1. The phosphane ligand behaves as a P,N chelating moiety in the cadmium complex 2, thus resulting in a species containing distorted tetrahedral environments around cadmium and phosphorus. Short intermolecular interactions CH‧‧‧π aryl and CH‧‧‧O in 1 and CH‧‧‧π aryl and CH‧‧‧Cl in 2 resulted in supramolecular networks.
