Base Properties

The BF4− anion is characterised by weak Lewis base properties; it is usually classified as a “non-coordinating anion”. The searches through the Cambridge Structural Database (CSD) were performed and it was found that the BF4− anion often occurs in crystal structures and it is involved in numerous intermolecular interactions; hydrogen bonds are the majority of them. The hydrogen bonds involving the BF4− anion as a proton acceptor are closer to linearity with the increase of the strength of interaction that is in line with the tendency known for other hydrogen bonds. However, even for short contacts between the proton and the Lewis base centre, slight deviations from linearity occur. The MP2/aug-cc-pVTZ calculations on the BF4−…HCN complex and on the BF4−…(HCN)4 cluster were also carried out to characterise corresponding C-H…F hydrogen bonds; such interactions often occur in crystal structures.

Statistical models to predict the number of hydrogen bonds that might be formed by any donor or acceptor atom in a crystal structure have been derived using organic structures in the Cambridge Structural Database. This hydrogen-bond coordination behaviour has been uniquely defined for more than 70 unique atom types, and has led to the development of a methodology to construct hypothetical hydrogen-bond arrangements. Comparing the constructed hydrogen-bond arrangements with known crystal structures shows promise in the assessment of structural stability, and some initial examples of industrially relevant polymorphs, co-crystals and hydrates are described.

Compounds (2), (3) and (4) are isomorphous and accordingly their molecular and supramolecular structures are similar. An analysis of the dihedral angles between the purine and exocyclic phenyl rings show that the molecules of (1) and (5) are essentially planar but that in the case of the three isomorphous compounds (2), (3) and (4), these rings are twisted by a dihedral angle of approximately 38°. With the exception of (1) all molecules are linked by weak C—H...O hydrogen bonds in their crystals. There is π–π stacking in all compounds. A Cambridge Structural Database search revealed the existence of 11 deposited compounds containing the 1-phenyl-2-sulfanylethanone scaffold; of these, only eight have a cyclic ring as substituent, the majority of these being heterocycles.

The second-order Møller–Plesset perturbation theory calculations with the aug-cc-pVTZ basis set were performed for complexes of molecular hydrogen. These complexes are connected by various types of interactions, the hydrogen bonds and halogen bonds are most often represented in the sample of species analysed; most interactions can be classified as σ-hole and π-hole bonds. Different theoretical approaches were applied to describe these interactions: Quantum Theory of ‘Atoms in Molecules’, Natural Bond Orbital method, or the decomposition of the energy of interaction. The energetic, geometrical, and topological parameters are analysed and spectroscopic properties are discussed. The stretching frequency of the H-H bond of molecular hydrogen involved in intermolecular interactions is considered as a parameter expressing the strength of interaction.

In order to study the preferred hydrogen-bonding pattern of 6-amino-2-thiouracil, C4H5N3OS, (I), crystallization experiments yielded five different pseudopolymorphs of (I), namely the dimethylformamide disolvate, C4H5N3OS·2C3H7NO, (Ia), the dimethylacetamide monosolvate, C4H5N3OS·C4H9NO, (Ib), the dimethylacetamide sesquisolvate, C4H5N3OS·1.5C4H9NO, (Ic), and two different 1-methylpyrrolidin-2-one sesquisolvates, C4H5N3OS·1.5C5H9NO, (Id) and (Ie). All structures containR21(6) N—H...O hydrogen-bond motifs. In the latter four structures, additionalR22(8) N—H...O hydrogen-bond motifs are present stabilizing homodimers of (I). No type of hydrogen bond other than N—H...O is observed. According to a search of the Cambridge Structural Database, most 2-thiouracil derivatives form homodimers stabilized by anR22(8) hydrogen-bonding pattern, with (i) only N—H...O, (ii) only N—H...S or (iii) alternating pairs of N—H...O and N—H...S hydrogen bonds.

InN,N,N′,N′-tetraethyl-N′′-(4-fluorobenzoyl)phosphoric triamide, C15H25FN3O2P, (I), andN-(2,6-difluorobenzoyl)-N′,N′′-bis(4-methylpiperidin-1-yl)phosphoric triamide, C19H28F2N3O2P, (II), the C—N—C angle at each tertiary N atom is significantly smaller than the two P—N—C angles. For the other new structure,N,N′-dicyclohexyl-N′′-(2-fluorobenzoyl)-N,N′-dimethylphosphoric triamide, C21H33FN3O2P, (III), one C—N—C angle [117.08 (12)°] has a greater value than the related P—N—C angle [115.59 (9)°] at the same N atom. Furthermore, for most of the analogous structures with a [C(=O)NH]P(=O)[N(C)(C)]2skeleton deposited in the Cambridge Structural Database [CSD; Allen (2002).Acta Cryst.B58, 380–388], the C—N—C angle is significantly smaller than the two P—N—C angles; exceptions were found for four structures with theN-methylcyclohexylamide substituent, similar to (III), one structure with the seven-membered cyclic amide azepan-1-yl substituent and one structure with anN-methylbenzylamide substituent. The asymmetric units of (I), (II) and (III) contain one molecule, and in the crystal structures, adjacent molecules are linkedviapairs of N—H...O=P hydrogen bonds to form dimers.

Weak C—H...Br intramolecular interactions in each of the four molecules in the asymmetric unit are observed. In (II), weak C—H...O, bifurcated three-center intermolecular interactions forming dimers along with weak C—H...π and π–π stacking interactions are observed, linking the molecules into sheets along [001]. A weak C—H...Br intramolecular interaction is also present. There are no classical hydrogen bonds present in either structure.

Tetrel Bonds

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.

Abstract The crystal structures of four azines, namely 1-3-bis(4-methoxyphenyl)-2,3-diaza-1,4-butadiene, 1, 1,3-bis(2,3-dimethoxyphenyl)-2,3-diaza-1,4-butadiene, 2, 1,3-bis(2-hydroxy-3-methoxyphenyl)-2,3-diaza-1,4-butadiene, 3, and 1,3-bis(2-hydroxy-4-methoxyphenyl)-2,3-diaza-1,4-butadiene, 4, are reported. Molecules of 3 and 4, and both independent molecules of 2, Mol A and Mol B, possess inversion centers. The central C=N–N=C units in each molecule is planar with an (E,E) conformation. The intermolecular interactions found in the four compounds are C–H···O, C–H–N, C–H---π and π---π interactions. However, there is no consistent set of intermolecular interactions for the four compounds. Compound, 1, has a two-dimensional undulating sheet structure, generated from C–H···O and C–H···N intermolecular hydrogen bonds. The only recognized intermolecular interaction in 2 is a C–H···O hydrogen bond, which results in a zig-zag chain of alternating molecules, Mol A and Mol B. While 3 forms a puckered sheet of molecules, solely via C–H···π interactions, its isomeric compound, 4, has a more elaborate three-dimensional structure generated from a combination of C–H···O hydrogen bonds, C–H···π and π···π interactions. The findings in this study, based on both PLATON and Hirshfeld approaches, for the four representative compounds match well the reported structural findings in the literature of related compounds, which are based solely on geometric parameters.

The molar ratio variations of organic and inorganic reactants of chloridobismuthates(III) with N,N-dimethylethane-1,2-diammonium, [(CH3)2NH(CH2)2NH3]2+, and N,N,N′,N′-tetramethylguanidinium, [NH2C{N(CH3)2}2]+, cations lead to the formation of four different products, namely, tris(N,N-dimethylethane-1,2-diammonium) bis[hexachloridobismuthate(III)], [(CH3)2NH(CH2)2NH3]3[BiCl6]2 (1), catena-poly[N,N-dimethylethane-1,2-diammonium [[tetrachloridobismuthate(III)]-μ-chlorido]], {[(CH3)2NH(CH2)2NH3][BiCl5]} n (2), tris(N,N,N′,N′-tetramethylguanidinium) tri-μ-chlorido-bis[trichloridobismuthate(III)], [NH2C{N(CH3)2}2]3[Bi2Cl9] (3), and catena-poly[N,N,N′,N′-tetramethylguanidinium [[dichloridobismuthate(III)]-di-μ-chlorido]], {[NH2C{N(CH3)2}2][BiCl4]} n (4). The hybrid crystals 1–4, containing relatively large but different organic cations, are composed of four distinct anionic substructures. They are built up from isolated [BiCl6]3− octahedra in 1, from face-sharing bioctahedral [Bi2Cl9]3− units in 3, from polymeric corner-sharing {[BiCl5]2−} n chains in 2 and from edge-sharing {[BiCl4]−} n chains in 4. The distortions shown by the single [BiCl6]3− polyhedra in 1–4 are associated with intrinsic interactions within the anionic substructures and the organic...inorganic substructures interactions, namely, N/C—H...Cl hydrogen bonds. The first factor is the stronger, which is evident in comparison of the experimentally determined geometrical and calculated distortion parameters for the isolated octahedron in 1 to the more complex inorganic substructures in 2–4. The formation of N—H...Cl hydrogen bonds, in terms of their number and strength, is favoured for 1 and 3 containing relatively easily accessed hydrogen-bond acceptors of isolated [BiCl6]3− and [Bi2Cl9]3− units. The studies of the deviations from regularity of the [BiCl6]3− octahedra within inorganic substructures were supported by a survey of the Cambridge Structural Database, which confirmed the role played by different factors in the variations in geometry of the inorganic anions.
