Abstract The tendency of forming mixed carboxyl-to-oxime hydrogen bonds was tested on the series of bornane derivatives: one with the acid function only (bornane-2-endo-carboxylic acid), one with the oxime function (2,2′-diethylthiobomane-3-oxime), and one with both oxime and carboxylic functions (bornane-2-oxime-3-endo-carboxylic acid). The crystal structures of these compounds were determined by means of X-ray diffraction. In bornane-2-endo-carboxylic acid and 2,2′-diethylthiobornane-3-oxime 'homogenic' hydrogen bonds were found, and these hydrogen bonds close eight-and six-membered rings, respectively. By contrast, in bornane-2-oxime-3-endo-carboxylic acid 'heterogenic' hydrogen bonds between carboxylic and oxime bonds were found. This carboxylic-oxime, or 'carboxyoxime' system is almost always present in compounds which have both oxime and carboxylic groups; therefore it can be regarded as an element of supramolecular structures (synthon). The presence of such synthons can break the tendency of carboxylic acids and oximes towards crystallizing in centrosymmetric structures.

In solid-state engineering, cocrystallization is a strategy actively pursued for pharmaceuticals. Two 1:1 cocrystals of 5-fluorouracil (5FU; systematic name: 5-fluoro-1,3-dihydropyrimidine-2,4-dione), namely 5-fluorouracil–5-bromothiophene-2-carboxylic acid (1/1), C5H3BrO2S·C4H3FN2O2, (I), and 5-fluorouracil–thiophene-2-carboxylic acid (1/1), C4H3FN2O2·C5H4O2S, (II), have been synthesized and characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction studies. In both cocrystals, carboxylic acid molecules are linked through an acid–acid R 2 2(8) homosynthon (O—H...O) to form a carboxylic acid dimer and 5FU molecules are connected through two types of base pairs [homosynthon, R 2 2(8) motif] via a pair of N—H...O hydrogen bonds. The crystal structures are further stabilized by C—H...O interactions in (II) and C—Br...O interactions in (I). In both crystal structures, π–π stacking and C—F...π interactions are also observed.

The crystal structures of three geotropically active phthalamic acid derivatives have been determined by means of X-ray diffraction and the structural systematics for the series compared. The three acids are conformationally similar and, in contrast to the tendency among carboxylic acids to form hydrogen-bonded dimers, they exist as monomers with intermolecular hydrogen bonding between the carboxylic acid groups and the nitrogen or oxygen of the amide side chains.

The cocrystal adducts of a number of carboxylic acids with organic heterocyclic bases have been prepared, and their structures and intermolecular interactions interpreted through X-ray diffraction and infrared spectroscopic techniques. The crystal structures of three of these compounds, the 1 : 1 adducts [{(2,4-dich1orophenoxy)acetic acid)(3-hydroxypyridine)] (1), [(2,4,6-trinitrobenzoie acid)(2-aminopyrimidine)] (2), and [(4-nitrobenzoic acid)(3-amino- 1,2,4-trimole)] (3), have been determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction and refined to residuals R 0.026, 0.033 and 0.040 for 1814, 1531 and 727 observed reflections, respectively.

The photolysis of ethyl 5-oxo-2-phenyl-2,5-dihydroisoxazole-4-carboxylate in acetonitrile containing 0.5% tri- fluoroacetic acid in the presence of thioamides gives moderate (40–60%) yields of thiazole-5-carboxylate esters. In the absence of trifluoroacetic acid, the intermediate vinyl thioesters can be isolated. That addition of the thioamide to the first formed carbene was, through sulfur, confirmed by X-ray crystal structures of 2-methylthiazole-5-carboxylic acid and a byproduct.

Mefenamic acid (MA) formed solvates with 2-picoline (2PIC), 3-picoline (3PIC), 4-picoline (4PIC) and 3-chloropyridine (3CLPYR). The solvates crystallized in the space group P\bar 1 with the carboxylic acid of MA hydrogen-bonded to the nitrogen of the substituted pyridine. Tolfenamic acid (TFA) formed solvates with 2PIC and 3PIC, the crystal structures successfully solved in the space groupsP21/nandPbca, respectively. The fenamate conformation varied depending on the acid and the included solvent. Similarities were observed in the structures involving MA. The two solvate structures of TFA had different packing arrangements. Grinding and slurry experiments were also successful for the preparation of all of the compounds except MA·2PIC. Recrystallization, grinding and slurry investigations of MA and 2PIC yielded a polymorph; the structure was successfully solved inP21/n. Additionally, the thermal stability of the solvates was determined. Desolvation experiments were also performed and the resultant powders were analysed using powder X-ray diffraction.
