In the crystal structure of the title organic proton-transfer complex, 2C12H11N2 +·C7H4O5S2−·3H2O, the cations form one-dimensional chains via intermolecular N—H...N hydrogen bonds and these chains, in turn, form a two-dimensional network through π–π stacking interactions. In addition, the anions and water molecules are connected into a two-dimensional hydrogen-bonded network through intermolecular O—H...O hydrogen bonds. The two motifs result in sheets of cations and anions stacked alternately.

The structures of the anhydrous 1:1 proton-transfer compounds of 4,5-dichlorophthalic acid (DCPA) with the monocyclic heteroaromatic Lewis bases 2-aminopyrimidine, 3-(aminocarbonyl)pyridine (nicotinamide) and 4-(aminocarbonyl)pyridine (isonicotinamide), namely 2-aminopyrimidinium 2-carboxy-4,5-dichlorobenzoate, C4H6N3+·C8H3Cl2O4−, (I), 3-(aminocarbonyl)pyridinium 2-carboxy-4,5-dichlorobenzoate, C6H7N2O+·C8H3Cl2O4−, (II), and the unusual salt adduct 4-(aminocarbonyl)pyridinium 2-carboxy-4,5-dichlorobenzoate–methyl 2-carboxy-4,5-dichlorobenzoate (1/1), C6H7N2O+·C8H3Cl2O4−·C9H6Cl2O4, (III), have been determined at 130 K. Compound (I) forms discrete centrosymmetric hydrogen-bonded cyclic bis(cation–anion) units having bothR22(8) andR12(4) N—H...O interactions. In (II), the primary N—H...O-linked cation–anion units are extended into a two-dimensional sheet structureviaamide–carboxyl and amide–carbonyl N—H...O interactions. The structure of (III) reveals the presence of an unusual and unexpected self-synthesized methyl monoester of the acid as an adduct molecule, giving one-dimensional hydrogen-bonded chains. In all three structures, the hydrogen phthalate anions are essentially planar with short intramolecular carboxyl–carboxylate O—H...O hydrogen bonds [O...O = 2.393 (8)–2.410 (2) Å]. This work provides examples of low-dimensional 1:1 hydrogen-bonded DCPA structure types, and includes the first example of a discrete cyclic `heterotetramer.' This low dimensionality in the structures of the 1:1 aromatic Lewis base salts of the parent acid is generally associated with the planar DCPA anion species.

The molecular and supramolecular structures of 18 N-arylpyrazinecarboxamides, Ar NHCO(C4H3N2), have been determined, including the stoichiometric monohydrate of N-(3-methoxyphenyl)pyrazinecarboxamide, and two polymorphs of N-(4-fluorophenyl)pyrazinecarboxamide having Z′ values of 1 and 4, respectively. The aryl groups were selected to include the geometric isomers for a compact range of substituents, namely methyl, trifluoromethyl, fluoro, chloro, methoxy and nitro groups, which exhibit markedly varied electronic properties and markedly varied behaviour as hydrogen-bond donors and acceptors. However, not all isomers in each group could be structurally investigated. A small number of derivatives containing disubstituted aryl groups have also been included in this study. The crystal structures of the solvent-free carboxamides reported here exhibit a wide range of direction-specific intermolecular forces, including N—H...N, N—H...O, C—H...N and C—H...O hydrogen bonds, and π...π stacking interactions, while the structure of N-(3-methoxyphenyl)pyrazinecarboxamide monohydrate also contains O—H...N and O—H...O hydrogen bonds. The resulting supramolecular structures can be zero-, one- or two-dimensional, although no three-dimensional supramolecular aggregation has been observed. In the finite, zero-dimensional structures, pairs of molecules are linked by hydrogen bonds to form cyclic centrosymmetric dimers. The one-dimensional structures include chains formed by the π-stacking of otherwise isolated molecules, simple chains generated by either C—H...O or C—H...N hydrogen bonds, and hydrogen-bonded chains of rings. The two-dimensional structures include examples of both π-stacked hydrogen-bonded chains and hydrogen-bonded sheets.
