Crystal structure and Hirshfeld surface analysis of 3-[2-(3,5-di-methyl-phen-yl)hydrazinyl-idene]benzo-furan-2(3H)-one.

In the title compound, C16H14N2O2, the 2,3-di-hydro-1-benzo-furan ring system is essentially planar and makes a dihedral angle of 3.69 (7)° with the di-methyl-phenyl ring. The mol-ecular conformation is stabilized by an intra-molecular N-H⋯O hydrogen bond with an S(6) ring motif. In the crystal, mol-ecules are connected by C-H⋯π and π-π stacking inter-actions, forming a layer lying parallel to the (11) plane. One methyl group is disordered over two orientations, with occupancies of 0.67 (4) and 0.33 (4). Hirshfeld surface analysis indicates that the most important contributions to the crystal packing are from H⋯H (51.2%), O⋯H/H⋯O (17.9%), C⋯H/H⋯C (15.2%) and C⋯C (8.1%) contacts.

Crystal structure and Hirshfeld surface analysis of (3Z)-7-meth-oxy-3-(2-phenyl-hydrazinyl-idene)-1-benzo-furan-2(3H)-one.

In the title compound, C15H12N2O3, pairs of mol-ecules are linked into dimers by N-H⋯O hydrogen bonds, forming an R 2 2(12) ring motif, with the dimers stacked along the a axis. These dimers are connected through π-π stacking inter-actions between the centroids of the benzene and furan rings of their 2,3-di-hydro-1-benzo-furan ring systems. Furthermore, there exists a C-H⋯π inter-action that consolidates the crystal packing. A Hirshfeld surface analysis indicates that the most important contacts are H⋯H (40.7%), O⋯H/H⋯O (24.7%), C⋯H/H⋯C (16.1%) and C⋯C (8.8%).

Crystal structure and Hirshfeld surface analysis of 4-{2,2-di-chloro-1-[(E)-(4-chloro-phen-yl)diazen-yl]ethen-yl}-N,N-di-methyl-aniline.

The title compound, C16H14Cl3N3, comprises three mol-ecules of similar shape in the asymmetric unit. The crystal cohesion is ensured by inter-molecular C-H⋯N and C-H⋯Cl hydrogen bonds in addition to C-Cl⋯π inter-actions. Hirshfeld surface analysis and two-dimensional fingerprint plots reveal that Cl⋯H/H⋯Cl (33.6%), H⋯H (27.9%) and C⋯H/H⋯C (17.6%) are the most important contributors towards the crystal packing.

Crystal structure and Hirshfeld surface analysis of (E)-4-{[2,2-di-chloro-1-(4-meth-oxy-phen-yl)ethen-yl]diazen-yl}benzo-nitrile.

In the title compound, C16H11Cl2N3O, the 4-meth-oxy-substituted benzene ring makes a dihedral angle of 41.86 (9)° with the benzene ring of the benzo-nitrile group. In the crystal, mol-ecules are linked into layers parallel to (020) by C-H⋯O contacts and face-to-face π-π stacking inter-actions [centroid-centroid distances = 3.9116 (14) and 3.9118 (14) Å] between symmetry-related aromatic rings along the a-axis direction. A Hirshfeld surface analysis indicates that the most important contributions to the crystal packing are from Cl⋯H/H⋯Cl (22.8%), H⋯H (21.4%), N⋯H/H⋯N (16.1%), C⋯H/H⋯C (14.7%) and C⋯C (9.1%) inter-actions.
