The crystal structures of (2-carboxyphenoxy)acetic acid (cpaa) (1) and its 1 : 1 adduct [( cpaa )(4-aba)] (2) with 4-aminobenzoic acid have been determined by X-ray diffraction and refined to residuals R 0.077, (1), and 0.051, (2), for 783 and 1062 observed reflections, respectively. The dicarboxylic acid (1) is extended into a one-dimensional zig-zag polymer by hydrogen bonding through the two acid groups [O…O, 2.67(1)Ǻ]. The adduct (2) represents the first example of a phenoxyalkanoic involved in a hetero-dimer association through the conventional cyclic hydrogen-bonding system [O…O, 2.54, 2.68(1)Ǻ]. The 2-carboxy group is also weakly hydrogen bonded to the 4-amino group of (4-aba) [O…N, 2.99(1)Ǻ], and in both (1) and (2) it has an intramolecular hydrogen bond to the ether oxygen of the oxyacetic acid side chain.

The structures of 1-α-D-xylofuranosylcytosine, C9H13N3O5 (1), and its hydrochloride salt, C9H13N3O5•HCl (1•HCl), have been determined by X-ray diffraction from diffractometer data, using direct method techniques. Both compounds crystallize in the orthorhombic system with Z = 4. Space group and cell parameters are, for 1: P21212, a = 18.706, b = 8.127, c = 7.007 Å; and for 1 HCl::P21212, a = 16.800, b = 8.045, c = 8.897 Å. Refinement by block-diagonal least-squares calculations gave a final R of 0.033 on 873 reflections and 0.034 on 914 reflections for 1 and 1 HCl, respectively. The glycosyl torsion angles are in the anti domain, χCN = −25.1° (1) and −28.6° (1•HC1), and the sugar puckers are nearly pure [Formula: see text] and 3E (1•HCl) forms. The C(4′)—C(5′) rotamer is trans–gauche in both cases. No intramolecular hydrogen bonding occurs in the xylofuranosyl rings. Lattice packing in the crystal structures occurs via intermolecular hydrogen bonding, with base stacking in pairs about one of the 2-fold axes for the neutral form, and with no base-stacking interactions for the protonated form. The biological implications of the structure and conformation of α-nucleosides are examined.

The title compounds benzylammonium phenylacetate, C7H10N+·C8H7O2 − (1), and its monohydrate, C7H10N+·C8H7O2 −·H2O (2), can be obtained by evaporating methanolic solutions containing equimolar amounts of benzylamine and phenylacetic acid in the absence and presence of water, respectively. N—H...O hydrogen bonds in the crystal structure of 1 lead to the formation of hydrophilic channels running along the b-axis direction. The hydrogen-bonding system is best described by fused R 3 4(10) ring patterns, often observed in ammonium carboxylate salts. In 2, the presence of the crystal water leads to the formation of a two-dimensional hydrogen-bonding network. The benzyl moieties in 1 and 2 form hydrophobic layers in the crystal structures with the aromatic rings adopting edge-to-face arrangements.

The absorption and fluorescence spectra along with the fluorescence quantum yields and lifetimes of the 1-cyano and 1-carboethoxy derivatives of carbazole in polar and non-polar fluids and in rigid solutions at 77 K have been investigated. The existence of the cyclic dimer has been confirmed for 1-cyanocarbazole in 3-methylpentane. The enthalpy and entropy of complexation are evaluated to be −39 kJ mol−1 and −78 J mol−1 K−1 respectively. No tautomeric species has been observed following excitation of the dimer. On the other hand, the intramolecular hydrogen bonding system always predominates in the gas phase and in non-polar solvents in the ground electronic state. This intramolecular hydrogen bonding has been shown to be broken in ethanol, where intermolecular hydrogen bonding to the solvent takes place. 1-Cyano carbazole follows the same behaviour in ethanol. All the 1-substituted derivatives of carbazole show exciplex fluorescence in ethanol and the formation of these exciplexes has been explained by the strong charge transfer character involved in the excited 1Lb states of these molecules.

The 1:1 molecular adducts of pyrazine-2,3-dicarboxylic acid with 4-aminobenzoic acid, [(C6H3N2O4)-(C7H8NO2)+], 3-hydroxypyridine, [(C6H4N2O4) (C5H5NO)], and 3-amino-1,2,4-triazole, [(C6H3N2O4)-(C2H5N4)+] have been prepared, and their structures determined by X-ray diffraction methods. All structures involve intra- and inter-molecular hydrogen-bonding interactions. The 1:2 complex of pyrazine-2,3-dicarboxylic acid with triphenylphosphine oxide has also been prepared, and characterized by using spectroscopic methods.

The crystal structures of perfluorophenoxyacetic acid [(2,3,4,5,6- pentafluorophenoxy )acetic acid] and its anhydrous complexes with silver(I) and mercury(I) have been determined by X-ray diffraction and refined to residuals R = 0.046, 0.042 and 0.104 for 1235, 1789 and 2750 observed reflections respectively. The acid forms the usual hydrogen- bonded cyclic dimers [O---O, 2.705(3)Ǻ] with the oxyacetic acid side- chain synclinally oriented. Crystals age triclinic, space group Pī with Z 2 in a cell of dimensions a 7.479(1), b 7.592(2), c 8.463(2)Ǻ,α 80.15(2),β 85.34(2),γ 61.31(1)Ǻ. The silver complex, [Ag2L2],(1), has crystals with a 5.992(3), b 30.22(2), c 5.277(2)Ǻ, β 106.42(5)°, space group P21/a and Z 2. The bis-carboxylato (O,O′) dimers have Ag-Ag 2.943(1)Ǻ with Ag-O, 2.203, 2.230(3)Ǻ and O-Ag-O 161.6(2)°. The complex with mercury(I), [Hg2L2]n, (2), is centrosymmetric with the usual linear O-Hg-Hg-O-bonds [Hg-Hg, 2.514(1)Ǻ; Hg-O, 2.13(1)Ǻ; O-Hg-Hg, 173.9(2)°]. Longer peripheral bonds to Hg [Hg-O, 2.63(1)Ǻ] produce a polymeric structure. Crystals of (2) are triclinic, space group Pī with Z 1 in a cell of dimensions a 5.038(1), b 5.970(1), c 15.774(6)Ǻ, α 80.77(2),β 86.42(2),γ 84.38(2)°.

The crystal structures of (2-formyl-6-methoxyphenoxy)acetic acid (1), diaquabis [(2-formyl-6-methoxyphenoxy) acetato ]zinc(11) (2), tetraaquabis [(2-chlorophenoxy) acetato ]zinc(11) (3), triaquabis [(2-chlorophenoxy) acetato ]cadmium(11) dihydrate (4) and lithium (2-chloro- phenoxy )acetate 1.5 hydrate (5) have been determined by X-ray diffraction. The acid (1) forms centrosymmetric hydrogen-bonded cyclic dimers [O…0, 2.677(6) �] which are non-planar. Complex (2) is six-coordinate with two waters [Zn- Ow , 1.997(2) �] and four oxygens from two asymmetric bidentate carboxyl groups [Zn-O, 2.073, 2.381(2) �] completing a skew trapezoidal bipyramidal stereochemistry. Complex (5) is also six-coordinate but is octahedral, with two trans-related unidentate carboxyl oxygens [mean Zn-O, 2.134(9) �] and four waters [mean Zn-O, 2.081(9) �]. The seven-coordinate complex (4) has crystallographic twofold rotational symmetry relating two :symmetric bidentate acid ligands [ Cd -O, 2.26, 2 48(:) �] and two waters [ Cd -O, 2.34(2) �] while the third water lies on this axis [ Cd -O, 2.27(2) �]. In contrast to the monomers (2)-(4), complex (5) is polymeric with tetrahedral lithium coordinated to one water and three carboxylate oxygens [mean Li-0, 1.95(1) �]. The essential conformation of the free acid is retained in complexes (2), (3) and (4) but in (5), it is considerably changed.

The crystal structure of the title compound, C2H10N2 2+·C6H2O4S2−·2H2O, is built of ethylenediammonium dications, occupying a special position on an inversion center, thiophene-2,5-dicarboxylate dianions, in a special position on the twofold axis, and water molecules in general positions. All residues are involved in an extensive hydrogen-bonding system, which links them into a three-dimensional supramolecular arrangement.
