4H-Chromene-2-carboxylic acid ester derivatives of renieramycin M might be of use for the structural-activity relationship studies of antitumor antibiotic tetrahydroisoquinoline natural products. Accordingly, 6-tert-butyl-4-phenyl-4H-chromene-2-carboxylic acid, one key intermediate, was synthesized via the condensation of (3E)-2-oxo-4-phenylbut-3-enoate methyl ester with 4-tert-butylphenol in the presence of AuCl3/3AgOTf (5 mol%), followed by cyclodehydration and aqueous hydrolysis. The product was unambiguously shown to the 4H-chromene-2-carboxylic acid by spectroscopy and X-ray crystallographic analysis. A packing diagram of the crystal structure shows that aromaticπ-stacking interactions and O–H⋯O hydrogen bond stabilize the structure in the solid.

Theortho-,para- andmeta-chloro-substitutedN-chlorophenyl-2-phthalimidoethanesulfonamide derivatives, C16H13ClN2O4S, have been structurally characterized by single-crystal X-ray crystallography.N-(2-Chlorophenyl)-2-phthalimidoethanesulfonamide, (I), has orthorhombic (P212121) symmetry,N-(4-chlorophenyl)-2-phthalimidoethanesulfonamide, (II), has triclinic (P\overline{1}) symmetry andN-(3-chlorophenyl)-2-phthalimidoethanesulfonamide, (III), has monoclinic (P21/c) symmetry. The molecules of (I)–(III) are regioisomers which have crystallized in different space groups as a result of the differing intra- and intermolecular hydrogen-bond interactions which are present in each structure. Compounds (I) and (II) are stabilized by N—H...O and C—H...O hydrogen bonds, while (III) is stabilized by N—H...O, C—H...O and C—H...Cl hydrogen-bond interactions. The structure of (II) also displays π–π stacking interactions between the isoindole and benzene rings. All three structures are of interest with respect to their biological activities and have been studied as part of a programme to develop anticonvulsant drugs for the treatment of epilepsy.

N-(dimethoxyphosphoryl)-1-methylpyridinium-4-carboximidate, a new carbacylamidophosphate-type compound, was synthesized and characterized by means of IR, 1H and 31P NMR and UV-Vis spectroscopies and X-ray analysis. The molecule of the synthesized compound has triclinic (P-1) symmetry, displays monomeric motif in crystal and crystalizes as solvate containing methanol molecule, which is connected to carbacylamidophosphate molecule through O(2)H(5A)–O(5) hydrogen bond. Through – stacking interactions, the molecules of the synthesized compound are linked in the chain along the a crystallographic axis. Several other intermolecular bonds connect these chains along b and c crystallographic axes. The intermolecular interactions with HH and OH contacts prevail in the crystalline structure of N-(dimethoxyphosphoryl)-1-methylpyridinium-4-carboximidate, the contribution of planar stacking CC contacts being equal to 4.1%. The synthesized compound was found to be well soluble in water. By using computer program PASS, we established that the synthesized substance is likely can exhibit 18 types of biological activity in experiment.

Creating crystalline porous materials with large pores is typically challenging due to undesired interpen-etration, staggered stacking, or weakened framework stability. Here, we report a pore size expansion strategy by self-recognizing π-π stacking interactions in a series of two-dimensional (2D) hydrogen–bonded organic frameworks (HOFs), HOF-10x (x=0,1,2), self-assembled from pyrene-based tectons with systematic elongation of π-conjugated molecular arms. This strategy successfully avoids interpene-tration or staggered stacking and expands the pore size of HOF materials to access mesoporous HOF-102, which features a surface area of ~ 2,500 m2/g and the largest pore volume (1.3 cm3/g) to date among all reported HOFs. More importantly, HOF-102 shows significantly enhanced thermal and chemical stability as evidenced by powder x-ray diffraction and N2 isotherms after treatments in chal-lenging conditions. Such stability enables the adsorption of dyes and cytochrome c from aqueous media by HOF-102 and affords a processible HOF-102/fiber composite for the efficient photochemical detox-ification of a mustard gas simulant.

The isomers 4′-(4-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl)-4,2′:6′,4″-terpyridine (1), 4′-(3-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl)-4,2′:6′,4″-terpyridine (2), 4′-(4-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl)-3,2′:6′,3″-terpyridine (3), and 4′-(3-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl)-3,2′:6′,3″-terpyridine (4) have been prepared and characterized. The single crystal structures of 1 and 2 were determined. The 1D-polymers [Cu2(hfacac)4(1)2]n.2nC6H4Cl2 (Hhfacac = 1,1,1,5,5,5-hexafluoropentane-2,4-dione), [Cu(hfacac)2(2)]n.2nC6H5Me, [Cu2(hfacac)4(3)2]n.nC6H4Cl2, [Cu2(hfacac)4(3)2]n.nC6H5Cl, and [Cu(hfacac)2(4)]n.nC6H5Cl have been formed by reactions of 1, 2, 3 and 4 with [Cu(hfacac)2].H2O under conditions of crystal growth by layering and four of these coordination polymers have been formed on a preparative scale. [Cu2(hfacac)4(1)2]n.2nC6H4Cl2 and [Cu(hfacac)2(2)]n.2nC6H5Me are zig-zag chains and the different substitution position of the CF3 group in 1 and 2 does not affect this motif. Packing of the polymer chains is governed mainly by C–F...F–C contacts, and there are no inter-polymer π-stacking interactions. The conformation of the 3,2′:6′,3″-tpy unit in [Cu2(hfacac)4(3)2]n.nC6H4Cl2 and [Cu(hfacac)2(4)]n.nC6H5Cl differs, leading to different structural motifs in the 1D-polymer backbones. In [Cu(hfacac)2(4)]n.nC6H5Cl, the peripheral 3-CF3C6H4 unit is accommodated in a pocket between two {Cu(hfacac)2} units and engages in four C–Hphenyl...F–Chfacac contacts which lock the phenylpyridine unit in a near planar conformation. In [Cu2(hfacac)4(3)2]n.nC6H4Cl2 and [Cu(hfacac)2(4)]n.nC6H5Cl, π-stacking interactions between 4′-trifluoromethylphenyl-3,2′:6′,3″-tpy domains are key packing interactions, and this contrasts with the packing of polymers incorporating 1 and 2. We use powder X-ray diffraction to demonstrate that the assemblies of the coordination polymers are reproducible, and that a switch from a 4,2′:6′,4″- to 3,2′:6′,3″-tpy metal-binding unit is accompanied by a change from dominant C–F...F–C and C–F...H–C contacts to π-stacking of arene domains between ligands 3 or 4.
