The title compound, C25H25N3O, comprises a 2-aminopyridine ring fused with a cycloheptane ring, which adopts a chair conformation. The central pyridine ring (r.m.s. deviation = 0.013 Å) carries three substituents,viz.a benzylamino group, a methoxyphenyl ring and a carbonitrile group. The N atom of the carbonitrile group is significantly displaced [by 0.2247 (1) Å] from the plane of the pyridine ring, probably due to steric crowding involving the adjacent substituents. The phenyl and benzene rings are inclined to one another by 58.91 (7)° and to the pyridine ring by 76.68 (7) and 49.80 (6)°, respectively. In the crystal, inversion dimers linked by pairs of N—H...Nnitrilehydrogen bonds generateR22(14) loops. The dimers are linked by C—H...π and slipped parallel π–π interactions [centroid–centroid distance = 3.6532 (3) Å] into a three-dimensional structure.

In the title molecular structure, C20H8Cl4N4O, the 1,3,4-triazole ring is twisted with an r.m.s. deviation of 0.0035 Å. One of the quinolinyl substituents makes a dihedral angle of 55.8 (1)° with respect to the central ring, while the other is rotated by 71.7 (1)°; these twists are necessary to relieve steric crowding.

The title compound, C18H28O3, was prepared by the reaction of 2,6-di-tert-butylphenol with methyl acrylate under basic conditions using dimethyl sulfoxide as the promoter. The structure of this antioxidant indicates significant strain between theortho tert-butyl substituents and the phenolic OH group. In spite of the steric crowding of the OH group, it participates in intermolecular hydrogen bonding with the ester carbonyl O atom.

The MP2/aug-cc-pVTZ calculations were performed on the dihalometallylenes to indicate their Lewis acid and Lewis base sites. The results of the Cambridge Structural Database search show corresponding and related crystal structures where the tetrel center often possesses the configuration of a trigonal bipyramid or octahedron. The calculations were also carried out on dimers of dichlorogermylene and dibromogermylene and on complexes of these germylenes with one and two 1,4-dioxide molecules. The Ge⋯Cl, Ge⋯Br, and Ge⋯O interactions are analyzed. The Ge⋯O interactions in the above mentioned germylene complexes may be classified as the π-hole tetrel bonds. The MP2 calculations are supported by the results of the Quantum Theory of Atoms in Molecules (QTAIM) and the Natural Bond Orbital (NBO) approaches.
