A new H-bonded supramolecular assembly of the diamine-diol family has been obtained from (1R,2R)-1,2-diaminocyclohexane (DAC) and (S)-1-phenyl-1,2-ethanediol (PED). The structure was characterized by single-crystal X-ray analysis and showed the typical architecture of DAC based assemblies, consisting of a three-stranded helicate coiling around a H-bonded core, with a predictable helicity sense determined by the configuration of DAC. The new assembly, while reconfirming the unique role of DAC as a powerful assembler of supramolecular structures, demonstrated that the C2 symmetry of diol partners employed so far is not essential for assembling helicates, although chirality is. In the case of the adduct between (1R,2R)-1,2-diaminocyclohexane and (2R,3R)-2,3-butanediol, molecular recognition and self-assembly have been shown to take place even in the absence of solvent, in the gas phase, where long crystals were formed by spontaneous organized aggregation of diamine-diol units. A thorough analysis of the results from the present and previous investigations has lead to a deeper understanding of the key features of the diamine-diol molecular code and of the requirements for recognition and assembly.Key words: supramolecular, hydrogen bonding, molecular recognition, self-assembly, diamines, diols.

The secondary bonding interactions that link the supramolecular structures assembled by 1,2,5-chalcogenadiazoles were analyzed through explicit orthogonalization of molecular orbitals (NBO), topological analysis of the electron density (AIM), and the electron localization function (ELF). The results of these analyses are consistent with a bonding description that attributes important covalent and electrostatic character to these interactions. Application of these analyses to the individual molecules highlighted the structural features from which each of those contributions originates, namely the polarity and modest strength of the E–N bond. Both of these effects increase along the series S, Se, Te. Perturbations to the heterocycle electronic structure that result in a weaker and more polar E–N bond cause an increase in the Lewis acidity at the chalcogen centre, which in turn leads to stronger secondary bonding interactions with Lewis bases. Additionally, the contribution of dispersion forces is not negligible and is most important in the case of sulfur.

AbstractA well-known selective xanthine oxidase inhibitor topiroxostat, 4-[3-(4-pyridinyl)-1H-1,2,4-triazol-5-yl]-2-pyridinecarbonitrile (ptpc), was selected to react with Cu(NO3)2 · 3H2O in dialkylformamide solvents, affording two novel supramolecular coordination compounds [Cu(ptpc)2(NO3)(DMF)2] · NO3 (1) and Cu(ptpc)2(NO3)2(DEF)2 (2). Single-crystal X-ray diffraction revealed that compound 1 crystallizes in the monoclinic space group C2/c. The components are assembled to a 3D supramolecular framework through hydrogen-bonding interactions between the large [Cu(ptpc)2(NO3)(DMF)2]+ cationic moieties and the nitrate anions. Compound 2 crystallizes in the triclinic space group P1̅ and shows a 2D hydrogen-bonded network structure. The results clearly indicate that dialkylformamide solvents with different sizes have an important influence on the structures of the complexes. The luminescence properties of 1 and 2 in the solid state and their thermal stabilities were also investigated.
