The analysis of π/π and H /π interactions in complexes are a challenging aspect of theoretical research. Due to the different approximations of different levels of theory, results tend to be inconsistent. We compared the reliabilities of HF, SVWN, M06L, PW91, BLYP, B3LYP, BHandHLYP, B97D, MP2, and DFTB-D approaches in researching π/π and H /π interactions by calculating the binding energies of five benzene-containing dimers. The effects of 6-31+G**, 6-311++G** and 6-311++G(2df,2p) basis sets on the results were analyzed too. We found that the DFTB-D and B97D methods combined with the 6-311++G** basis set perform well for dimers that contain π/π and H /π interactions. With high efficiency and satisfactory precision, DFTB-D is helpful for the calculation of complexes containing π/π and H /π stacking. We further calculated the structures and properties of phenylalanine-containing dimers using the DFTB-D and B97D methods. The properties of low energy conformers such as rotational constants, dipole moments and molecular orbitals were also analyzed. These data should be helpful for research into systems that contain π/π and H /π stacking.

A new three-dimensional (3D) supramolecular framework, [Ag2(bipy)2(bdc)·4H2O]n 1, has been synthesized by the ultrasonic reaction of Ag2O, bipy and H2bdc (H2bdc = 1,4-benzenedicarboxylic acid; bipy = 4,4’-bipyridine) at room temperature. It exhibits a new 3D supramolecular framework which is built from cationic Ag-bipy chains and anionic bdc-H2O sheets through hydrogen bonds, π · · ·π stacking and C-H· · ·π interactions. Additionally, the photoluminescent and thermal properties of 1 were investigated.

In the asymmetric unit of the title compound, C16H14N4O2·0.5C4H8O2, there are two crystallographically independent oxime molecules and one solvent molecule. Each oxime molecule has intramolecular N—H...O and N—H...N hydrogen bonds, which make the non-H atoms approximately coplanar except for the naphthyl groups. The two independent molecules are connected to each other by O—H...N hydrogen bonds, forming a dimer. Dimers are linked into a layer through C—H...O, C—H...N and C—H...π interactions. There is π-stacking of approximately parallel oxadiazole rings, with a centroid–centroid distance of 3.6234 (9) Å and a dihedral angle of 8.90 (6)°. Dioxane C and H atoms are disordered over two sites each, with occupancy factors of ca 0.78:0.22.

Based on the ligands N,N′-bis(pyridin-2-ylmethylene)benzene-1,4-diamine (pmb) and N,N′-bis(pyridin-2-ylmethylene)biphenyl-4,4′-diamine (pmbb), the three compounds [Cu2(pmb) (PPh3)2(Cl)2] (1), [Cu2(pmbb)(CH3CN)2(PPh3)2](BF4)2·2DMF (2), and [Ag2(pmbb)(PPh3)2] (ClO4)2 (3) have been synthesised and characterised. Structural analysis reveals that all of these complexes contain 1D supramolecular arrays, with different variations in π-stacking patterns and intermolecular C–H···π interactions. Crystal structures of 1 and 2 contain 1D tape-like arrays formed by C–H···π and π···π interactions, and an ordered-layer-lattice of DMF and BF4– in 2 is located between the one-dimensional array. For 3, π-stacking interactions lead to the construction of 1D supramolecular arrays and a 2D network. The results indicate that C–H···π and π···π interactions play an important role in the construction of the supramolecular structure. In addition, the absorption peaks of complexes 1 and 3 in the solid state at room temperature show intraligand charge transfer and metal-to-ligand charge transfer absorptions. The optical and fluorescent properties of 2 were also studied in acetonitrile solution at room temperature.

The non-H atoms of the title molecule, C10H10N2O, are essentially coplanar, with a maximum deviation of 0.046 (4) Å for the O atom. In the crystal, molecules are linked by weak C—H...O hydrogen bonds, forming chains along [010]. In addtion, weak C—H...π interactions and π–π stacking interactions between benzene and pyrimidine rings, with a centroid–centroid distance of 3.730 (3) Å, link the chains, forming a two-dimensional network parallel to (001).
