A systematic evaluation of the CSD and the PDB in conjunction with DFT calculations reveal that non-covalent Carbon-bonding interactions with X–CH3 can be weakly directional in the solid state (P ≤ 1.5) when X = N or O. This is comparable to very weak CH hydrogen bonding interactions and is in line with the weak interaction energies calculated (≤ –1.5 kcal·mol−1) of typical charge neutral adducts such as [Me3N-CH3···OH2] (2a). The interaction energy is enhanced to ≤–5 kcal·mol−1 when X is more electron withdrawing such as in [O2N-CH3··O=Cdme] (20b) and to ≤18 kcal·mol−1 in cationic species like [Me3O+-CH3···OH2]+ (8a).

Crystallization of neptunyl(v) tetrachlorides over neptunyl(vi) species occurs simultaneously with charge assisted hydrogen bonding in our solid state materials, which we explored by DFT calculations, cyclic voltammograms, and Raman spectroscopy.

Abstract The delicate balance among conformation, coordination bonds and hydrogen bonding has been probed in solvatomorphs of known metal-organic molecules synthesised from copper(II), cadmium(II) and cobalt(II) with acetate (OAc) and 2,2′-bipyridine (bipy). The Cu(OAc)2(bipy) complex, isolated as a pentahydrate, has the acetate ligands oriented to opposite sides of the coordination square plane. DFT calculations show the energy difference between this structure and a syn form amount to approximately 16 kJ/mol. The presence of lattice water enables the formation of O–H···O hydrogen bonds with the acetate ligands. Different coordination numbers and energies are found as a function of the number of water molecules co-crystallising in the Cd(OAc)2(bipy)(OH2)·3H2O and [Co(OAc)(bipy)2](OAc)·3H2O complexes.

X-ray structures and DFT calculations show that the HT phase is of Me2Cd is two-dimensionally disordered, while the LT phase is ordered. Both phases contain linearly coordinated cadmium atoms; methyl groups are staggered in the HT form and eclipsed in the LT-form.

Two new Na and K coordination polymers with halogen bond, metallophilic and hydrogen bonding interactions were synthesized. These two compounds were synthesized sonochemically and solid-state conversions of them to each other were investigated.
