Abstract The proton transfer (PT) complex of 2-amino 4-methoxy 6-methyl pyrimidinium (2A4M6MP) 4-aminosalicylate (4AMSA), C6H10ON3+ C7H6NO3−, (I), and 5-chlorosalicylate (5ClSA), C6H10ON3+ C7H4O3Cl− (II) were synthesized and crystallized. The crystal structures of both salt molecules were investigated by SC-XRD. Further, the calculated ∆pKa values clearly demonstrate that 2A4M6MP is a good salt former when combined with carboxylic acids. Hirshfeld surface analysis provides the quantifying interactions in the solid state and energy framework shows the stability of hydrogen bonding. QTAIM analysis reveals the nature of chemical bonding and electron density distribution of intermolecular interactions of pyrimidine based salt molecules.

The CoII atom in the title complex, [Co(SO4)(C12H8N2)(H2O)3] (or C12H14CoN2O7S), is octahedrally coordinated within a cis-N2O4 donor set defined by the chelating N-donors of the 1,10-phenanthroline ligand, sulfate-O and three aqua-O atoms, the latter occupying an octahedral face. In the crystal, supramolecular layers lying parallel to (110) are sustained by aqua-O—H...O(sulfate) hydrogen bonding. The layers stack along the c-axis direction with the closest directional interaction between them being a weak phenanthroline-C—H...O(sulfate) contact. There are four significant types of contact contributing to the calculated Hirshfeld surface: at 44.5%, the major contribution comes from O—H...O contacts followed by H...H (28.6%), H...C/C...H (19.5%) and C...C (5.7%) contacts. The dominance of the electrostatic potential force in the molecular packing is also evident in the calculated energy frameworks. The title complex is isostructural with its manganese, zinc and cadmium containing analogues and isomeric with its mer-triaqua analogue.

We report the design, synthesis, and crystal structure of a conjugated aryleneethynyl molecule, 2-(2-{4,5-dimethoxy-2-[2-(2,3,4-trifluorophenyl)ethynyl]phenyl}ethynyl)-6-[2-(pyridin-2-yl)ethynyl]pyridine, C30H17F3N2O2, that adopts a planar rhombus conformation in the solid state. The molecule crystallizes in the space group P\overline{1}, with Z = 2, and features two intramolecular sp2 -C—H...N hydrogen bonds that co-operatively hold the arylethynyl molecule in a rhombus conformation. The H atoms are activated towards hydrogen bonding since they are situated on a trifluorophenyl ring and the H...N distances are 2.470 (16) and 2.646 (16) Å, with C—H...N angles of 161.7 (2) and 164.7 (2)°, respectively. Molecular electrostatic potential calculations support the formation of C—H...N hydrogen bonds to the trifluorophenyl moiety. Hirshfeld surface analysis identifies a self-complementary C—H...O dimeric interaction between adjacent 1,2-dimethoxybenzene segments that is shown to be common in structures containing that moiety.
