The title compound, (C9H8NO)[CuCl3(C7H5NO4)]·2H2O, was prepared by reacting CuII acetate dihydrate, solid 8-hy-droxy-quinoline (8-HQ), and solid pyridine-2,6-di-carb-oxy-lic acid (H2pydc), in a 1:1:1 molar ratio, in an aqueous solution of dilute hydro-chloric acid. The CuII atom exhibits a distorted CuO2NCl3 octa-hedral geometry, coordinating two oxygen atoms and one nitro-gen atom from the tridentate H2pydc ligand and three chloride atoms; the nitro-gen atom and one chloride atom occupy the axial positions with Cu-N and Cu-Cl bond lengths of 2.011 (2) Šand 2.2067 (9) Å, respectively. In the equatorial plane, the oxygen and chloride atoms are arranged in a cis configuration, with Cu-O bond lengths of 2.366 (2) and 2.424 (2) Å, and Cu-Cl bond lengths of 2.4190 (10) and 2.3688 (11) Å.

The crystal structure features strong O-H⋯O and O-H⋯Cl hydrogen bonds as well as weak inter-actions including C-H⋯O, C-H⋯Cl, Cu-Cl⋯π, and π-π, which result in a three-dimensional network. A Hirshfeld surface analysis indicates that the most important contributions to the crystal packing involving the main residues are from H⋯Cl/Cl⋯H inter-actions, contributing 40.3% for the anion. Weak H⋯H contacts contribute 13.2% for the cation and 28.6% for the anion.

The title compound, [Sn(C6H5)Cl3(C12H8N2)], which was obtained by the reaction between 1,10-phenanthroline and phenyl-tin trichloride in methanol, exhibits intra-molecular hydrogen-bonding inter-actions involving the chlorine and hydrogen atoms. Crystal cohesion is ensured by inter-molecular C-H⋯Cl hydrogen bonds, as well as Y-X⋯π and π-stacking inter-actions involving three different aromatic rings with centroid-centroid distances of 3.6605 (13), 3.9327 (14) and 3.6938 (12) Å]. Hirshfeld surface analysis and the associated two-dimensional fingerprint plots reveal significant contributions from H⋯H (30.7%), Cl⋯H/H⋯Cl (32.4%), and C⋯H/H⋯C (24.0%) contacts to the crystal packing while the C⋯C (6.2%), C⋯Cl/Cl⋯C (4.1%), and N⋯H/H⋯N (1.7%) inter-actions make smaller contributions.

The title compound, bis-[µ-2,2'-(4H-1,2,4-triazole-3,5-di-yl)di-acetato]-bis-[di-aqua-copper(II)] dihydrate, [Cu2(C6H5N3O4)2(H2O)4]·2H2O, is a dinuclear octa-hedral CuII triazole-based complex. The central copper atoms are hexa-coordinated by two nitro-gen atoms in the equatorial positions, two equatorial oxygen atoms of two carboxyl-ate substituents in position 3 and 5 of the 1,2,4-triazole ring, and two axial oxygen atoms of two water mol-ecules. Two additional solvent water mol-ecules are linked to the title mol-ecule by O-H⋯N and O⋯H-O hydrogen bonds. The crystal structure is built up from the parallel packing of discrete supra-molecular chains running along the a-axis direction. Hirshfeld surface analysis suggests that the most important contributions to the surface contacts are from H⋯O/O⋯H (53.5%), H⋯H (28.1%), O⋯O (6.3%) and H⋯C/C⋯H (6.2%) inter-actions. The crystal studied was twinned by a twofold rotation around [100].

The Pd atom has a square-planar coordination. In the crystal, mol-ecules are linked by inter-molecular N-H⋯O and C-H⋯N hydrogen bonds, forming layers parallel to the bc plane. A Hirshfeld surface analysis showed that the H⋯H contacts dominate the crystal packing with a contribution of 41.4%. The contribution of the N⋯H/H⋯N and H⋯O/O⋯H inter-actions is somewhat smaller, amounting to 12.4% and 5%, respectively.

A new three-dimensional barium(II) coordination polymer constructed from N,N'-bis(glycinyl)pyromellitic diimide: microwave-assisted synthesis, structure, Hirshfeld surface analysis and properties.

A new three-dimensional (3D) coordination polymer, namely, poly[diaqua[µ5-2,2'-(1,3,5,7-tetraoxo-1,2,3,5,6,7-hexahydropyrrolo[3,4-f]isoindole-2,6-diyl)diacetato]barium(II)], [Ba(C14H6N2O8)(H2O)2]n, (I), has been synthesized by the microwave-irradiated reaction of Ba(NO3)2 with N,N'-bis(glycinyl)pyromellitic diimide {BGPD, namely, 2,2'-(1,3,5,7-tetraoxo-1,2,3,5,6,7-hexahydropyrrolo[3,4-f]isoindole-2,6-diyl)diacetatic acid, H2L}. The title compound was structurally characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis and powder X-ray diffraction analysis, as well as IR spectroscopy. In the crystal structure of (I), the BaII ion is nine-coordinated by six carboxylate O atoms from five symmetry-related L2- dianions and one imide O atom, as well as two water O atoms. The coordination geometry of the central BaII ion can be described as a spherical capped square antiprism. One carboxylate group of the ligand serves as a µ3-bridge linking the BaII cations into a one-dimensional polynuclear secondary building unit (SBU). Another carboxylate group of the ligand acts as a µ2-bridge connecting the 1D SBUs, thereby forming a two-dimensional (2D) SBU. The resulting 2D SBUs are extended into a 3D framework via the pyromellitic diimide moiety of the ligand as a spacer. The 3D Ba framework can be simplified as a 5-connected hexagonal boron nitride net (bnn) topology. The intermolecular interactions in the 3D framework were further investigated by Hirshfeld surface analysis and the results show that the prominent interactions are H...O (45.1%), Ba...O (11.1%) and C...H (11.1%), as well as H...H (11.1%) contacts. The thermal stability, photoluminescence properties and UV-Vis absorption spectra of (I) were also investigated. The coordination polymer exhibits a fluorescence emission with a quantum yield of 0.071 and high thermal stability.

Synthesis, crystal structure, Hirshfeld surface, computational and biological studies of spiro-oxindole derivatives as MDM2-p53 inhibitors.

The spiro-oxindole derivatives were synthesized via a 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition approach and characterized by FT-IR, 1H, 13C NMR and mass spectral techniques. The single crystal XRD of 6d further validates the formation of compounds. DFT calculations indicated the reactive nature of compound 6d. Docking studies with 5LAW disclosed the minimum binding energy of - 10.83 kcal/mol for 6d. Furthermore, safe oral bioavailability was ensured by the physicochemical, pharmacokinetic, and toxicity predictions. The anticancer analysis of synthesized compounds showed substantial activity against A549 cells, notably with an IC50 value of 8.13 ± 0.66 µM for 6d compared to standard doxorubicin. 6d was also evaluated for cytotoxicity against L929 healthy cells and A549, showing selectivity towards A549 than healthy cells.

Crystal structure determination and Hirshfeld surface analysis of N-acetyl-N-3-meth-oxy-phenyl and N-(2,5-di-meth-oxy-phen-yl)-N-phenyl-sulfonyl derivatives of N-[1-(phenyl-sulfon-yl)-1H-indol-2-yl]methanamine.

Two new [1-(phenyl-sulfon-yl)-1H-indol-2-yl]methanamine derivatives, namely, N-(3-meth-oxy-phen-yl)-N-{[1-(phenyl-sulfon-yl)-1H-indol-2-yl]meth-yl}acetamide, C24H22N2O4S, (I), and N-(2,5-di-meth-oxy-phen-yl)-N-{[1-(phenyl-sulfon-yl)-1H-indol-2-yl]meth-yl}benzene-sulfonamide, C29H26N2O6S2, (II), reveal a nearly orthogonal orientation of their indole ring systems and sulfonyl-bound phenyl rings. The sulfonyl moieties adopt the anti-periplanar conformation. For both compounds, the crystal packing is dominated by C-H⋯O bonding [C⋯O = 3.312 (4)-3.788 (8) Å], with the structure of II exhibiting a larger number, but weaker bonds of this type. Slipped π-π inter-actions of anti-parallel indole systems are specific for I, whereas the structure of II delivers two kinds of C-H⋯π inter-actions at both axial sides of the indole moiety. These findings agree with the results of Hirshfeld surface analysis. The primary contributions to the surface areas are associated with the contacts involving H atoms. Although II manifests a larger fraction of the O⋯H/H⋯O contacts (25.8 versus 22.4%), most of them are relatively distal and agree with the corresponding van der Waals separations.

Synthesis, structural studies and Hirshfeld surface analysis of 2-[(4-phenyl-1H-1,2,3-triazol-1-yl)methyl]pyridin-1-ium hexa-kis-(nitrato-κ2 O,O')thorate(IV).

Reaction of thorium(IV) nitrate with 2-[(4-phenyl-1H-1,2,3-triazol-1-yl)meth-yl]pyridine (L) yielded (LH)2[Th(NO3)6] or (C14H13N4)2[Th(NO3)6] (1), instead of the expected mixed-ligand complex [Th(NO3)4 L 2], which was detected in the mass spectrum of 1. In the structure, the [Th(NO3)6]2- anions display an icosa-hedral coordination geometry and are connected by LH+ cations through C-H⋯O hydrogen bonds. The LH+ cations inter-act via N-H⋯N hydrogen bonds. Hirshfeld surface analysis indicates that the most important inter-actions are O⋯H/H⋯O hydrogen-bonding inter-actions, which represent a 55.2% contribution.

Synthesis, crystal structure and Hirshfeld surface analysis of [1-(4-bromo-phen-yl)-1H-1,2,3-triazol-4-yl]methyl 2-(4-nitro-phen-oxy)acetate.

The mol-ecules, with a near-perpendicular orientation of the bromo-phenyl-triazole and nitro-phen-oxy-acetate fragments, are connected into a three-dimensional network by inter-molecular C-H⋯O and C-H⋯N hydrogen bonds (confirmed by Hirshfeld surface analysis), π-π and Br-π inter-actions.

Crystal structures, phase transition, and Hirshfeld surface analyses of the bromide and chloride congeners of aqua[2,4,6-tris(pyridin-4-yl)-1,3,5-triazine]zinc(II) halide.

During the course of exploring crystallization conditions in generating metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) for use in the crystalline sponge method, two discrete metal-organic complexes, namely, aqua[2,4,6-tris(pyridin-4-yl)-1,3,5-triazine]zinc(II) bromide, [Zn(C18H12N6)(H2O)]Br2, and aqua[2,4,6-tris(pyridin-4-yl)-1,3,5-triazine]zinc(II) chloride, [Zn(C18H12N6)(H2O)]Cl2, were encountered. Structures in the orthorhombic space group Pnma (No. 62) for the bromide congener at 299 K and the chloride congener at 100 K were obtained. A phase transition for the bromide congener occurred upon cooling from 299 to 100 K, yielding a crystal polymorph with four domains that exhibits monoclinic P21/m space-group symmetry (No. 11), which arises from conformational changes. The main intramolecular contacts that contribute to the crystal packing in all observed structures are H...H, Halide...H/H...Halide, C...H/H...C, and N...H/H...N. Intramolecular hydrogen bonding between the Zn-bound water and non-Zn-bound pyridyl N atoms is a prominent feature within the three-dimensional networks. Aromatic π-stacking between the non-Zn-bound pyridine rings and contacts involving the halide ligands further stabilize the crystal packing.

Coordination structure and intermolecular interactions in copper(II) acetate complexes with 1,10-phenanthroline and 2,2'-bipyridine.

The geometry around the metal centre is pentacoordinated, but highly distorted in all three cases. The coordination number and the geometric distortion are both discussed in detail, and all complexes belong to the space group P-1. The analysis of the geometric parameters and the Hirshfeld surface properties dnorm and curvedness provide information about the metal-ligand interactions in these complexes and allow comparison with similar systems.
