13-Benzyl-4,11-dihy-droxy-1,8-diphen-yl-2,9-di-thia-13-aza-dispiro-[4.1.4.3]tetra-decan-6-one.

In the title compound, C30H31NO3S2, the piperidine ring adopts a distorted chair conformation. The thio-phene rings have twisted conformations about the C-C bonds. The mean plane of the piperidine ring makes a near orthogonal conformation with the toluene ring. Two of the phenyl rings in the structure are positionally disordered over two sets of sites with occupancies of 0.56 (2)/0.44 (2) and 0.672 (16)/0.328 (16). A region of disordered electron density was corrected for using the SQUEEZE [Spek (2015 ▸). Acta Cryst. C71, 9-18] routine in PLATON. The given chemical formula and other crystal data do not take into account the unknown solvent mol-ecule. In the crystal, O-H⋯O hydrogen bonds are observed along with intra-molecular S⋯H, O⋯H, C⋯H and H⋯H contacts.

Crystal and geometry-optimized structure, and Hirshfeld surface analysis of 1-(2-bromo-eth-yl)indoline-2,3-dione.

In the title compound, C10H8BrNO2, the isatin (1H-indole-2,3-dione) moiety is nearly planar (r.m.s. deviation = 0.026 Å). In the crystal, mol-ecules are linked by C-H⋯O hydrogen bonds, forming layers parallel to the ab plane, and enclosing R44(24) loops. There are a low percentage (19.3%) of inter-molecular H⋯H contacts in the structure, as estimated by the analysis of Hirshfeld surfaces. This could be due to the presence of the Br atom, present in the bromo-ethyl-ene group, which makes ca 18.7% Br⋯H contacts.

Two new isatin derivatives: 1-benzyl-4,5,6-trimethoxyindoline-2,3-dione and 1-benzyl-5-fluoroindoline-2,3-dione.

Isatin (1H-indole-2,3-dione) derivatives represent synthetically useful substrates which can be used to prepare a broad range of heterocyclic compounds. In the title compounds, C18H17NO5, (I), and C15H10FNO2, (II), the isatin ring systems are planar and form a dihedral angle of 73.04 (7)° in (I) and 76.82 (11)° in (II) with the benzyl groups. The bicyclic scaffolds in both compounds are almost superimposable, with an r.m.s. deviation of 0.061 Å. The crystal structures of both derivatives are stabilized by C-H···O interactions. These contacts generate an R(1)2(7) ring motif in (I) and a C(7) chain motif in (II).

Crystal structure of 4-amino-1-(4-methyl-benz-yl)pyridinium bromide.

The title mol-ecular salt, C13H15N2 (+)·Br(-), crystallized with two independent ion pairs (A and B) in the asymmetric unit. In the cations, the planes of the pyridine and benzene rings are inclined to one another by 79.32 (8) and 82.30 (10)° in ion pairs A and B, respectively. In the crystal, the anions and cations are connected by N-H⋯Br hydrogen bonds, forming a centrosymmetric tetra-mer-like unit enclosing an R 8 (4)(16) ring motif. These units are linked via C-H⋯Br hydrogen bonds, forming a three-dimensional network.

1-[(4-Chlorobenzoyl)methyl]-4-(N,N-dimethylamino)pyridinium bromide sesquihydrate and 1-[(4-bromobenzoyl)methyl]-4-(N,N-dimethylamino)pyridinium bromide sesquihydrate.

The title compounds, C15H16ClN2O+.Br-.1.5H2O and C15H16BrN2O+.Br-.1.5H2O, are isomorphous. The benzene ring is oriented nearly normal to the pyridine ring in both compounds. The molecular packing is mainly influenced by intermolecular O-H...O and O-H...Br interactions, as well as weak intramolecular C-H...O interactions. The H2OBr- units form an extended water-bromide chain, with a bridging water molecule on a twofold axis.
