The synthesis, molecular X-ray structure and in silico EGFR and HER2 molecular docking studies are reported for 4-hydroxy-3,5-dimethoxybenzaldehyde (6-chloropyridazin-3-yl)hydrazone hydrate, which constitutes a new pyridazine-based compound incorporating a syringaldehyde moiety by condensation of the hydrazine linker with the aldehyde function.
In the title compound, C13H13ClN4O3·H2O, the organic molecule has an E configuration with regard to the C=N bond of the hydrazone bridge. The phenyl and pyridazine rings subtend a dihedral angle of 2.1 (1)° between their mean planes, while the hydrazone moiety makes dihedral angles of 1.6 (2) and 3.0 (2)°, respectively, with these aromatic rings. This renders the entire molecule comparably flat. A C—H⋯N hydrogen bond generates an inversion dimer with a large R22(14) ring motif. Within this ring, a further C—H⋯N hydrogen bond establishes a smaller R22(8) ring. The molecules of a dimer are thereby firmly linked by four hydrogen bonds. A bifurcated O—H⋯(O,O) hydrogen bond is formed between a water hydrogen atom and the hydroxyl and methoxy oxygen atoms of an adjacent molecule, leading to the formation of an R21(5) membered ring. C—H⋯π and face-to-face π–π stacking interactions are also present in the two-dimensional framework, which may be of relevance for the packing. In a complementary analysis, the compound was docked in silico to EGFR and HER2 receptors and the results imply that the compound targets EGFR preferentially over HER2.

The crystal structure of the amino acid Schiff base zinc(II) complex synthesized from salicylaldehyde, l-threonine and zinc(II) acetate is reported.
The title complex, [Zn(C11H11NO4)(C3H4N2)(H2O)], which includes a tridentate ligand, was synthesized from l-threonine and salicylaldehyde. One water molecule and one imidazole molecule additionally coordinate the zinc(II) center in a distorted trigonal–bipyramidal geometry. The crystal structure features N—H⋯O and O—H⋯O hydrogen bonds. A Hirshfeld surface analysis indicates that the most important contributions to the packing are from H⋯H/H⋯H (50.7%) and O⋯H/H⋯O (25.0%) contacts.

The crystal structure is characterized by a three-dimensional hydrogen-bonding network. Chains formed through N—H⋯O contacts are linked by additional intermolecular bonds to complete the structure.
In the title molecule, C20H21N3O5S, the methylideneformohydrazide and methoxybenzene groups are almost coplanar, with the indolyl group being rotated farther from the plane. The molecules in the crystal structure form chains parallel to the a-axis direction through N—H⋯O hydrogen-bonding interactions. Neighbouring chains are linked by N—H⋯O contacts to form a three-dimensional network.

The molecular and crystal structures of 2-[(2,4-dimethylbenzyl)thio]pyrimidine-4,6-diamine were studied and Hirshfeld surfaces and fingerprint plots were generated to investigate the various intermolecular interactions.
The title compound, C13H16N4S (DAMP-DMB), was synthesized through the reaction of 2,4-dimethylbenzyl chloride with diaminopyrimidine-thiol. Single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis confirmed that the compound crystallizes in the monoclinic crystal system, space group P21/c. The asymmetric unit contains a single molecular entity. Structural examination revealed the presence of a dimeric arrangement consolidated by N—H⋯N hydrogen-bonding interactions. Additionally, Hirshfeld surface analysis indicated that H⋯H, N⋯H, C⋯H, and S⋯H contacts account for 98.9% of the total intermolecular interactions to the Hirshfeld surface.

Decapeptide having a gramicidin S sequence forms a helix structure supported by a fluorine–H interaction.
The decapeptide Boc-(d-Phe-tFPro-Val-Leu-Leu)2—OMe (1) (Boc is tert-butoxycarbonyl, tFPro is 4-trans-fluoro-l-proline d-Phe is d-phenylalanine, Val is valine and Leu is leucine) crystallized in a methanol-solvated form (C68H104F2N10O13·CH4O). Peptide 1 has a sequence similar to gramicidin S (GS) incorporating tFPro. GS is a cyclic peptide, with the d-Phe-Pro unit known as a strong β-turn inducer in previous studies. Thus, it was initially assumed that 1 would bend at the d-Phe6-tFPro7 position, potentially forming a sheet-like structure. However, the structure of 1 was a helix, a surprising finding in GS-related structural studies. A factor enabling this helical formation could be the fluorine–H interactions between tFPro and the aromatic rings of d-Phe residues.

The structure of a tris(2-methyl-1H-imidazol-3-ium) dihydrogenetrimesate− monohydrogentrimesate2− compound was determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The compound is mixture of protonated and deprotonated molecules.
The structure of the title salt, 3C4H7N2+·C9H5O6−·C9H4O62−, 1, consists of three 2-methyl-imidazolium cations and both a single and a doubly deprotonated form of trimesic acid as anions. A detailed analysis of the bond lengths and angles reveals both differences and similarities between compound 1 and the previously reported 2-methyl-1H-imidazol-3-ium 3,5-dicarboxybenzoate structure [Baletska et al. (2023). Acta Cryst. E79, 1088–109], as well as the neutral counterpart of the ions. Examination of the crystal packing shows the formation of infinite chains by the anions, which, along with the cations, form zigzag planes parallel to the ab plane. The packing interactions are primarily driven by π–π interactions and hydrogen bonding between anions.

Tetraoxa[2]perfluoroarene[2]triazine (C20H6F8N6O6), composed of two tetrafluorophenylene and two triazine moieties connected by four oxygen atoms, was crystallized via slow evaporation of a dichloromethane solution, yielding two polymorphs with block- and plate-shaped crystals.
The title compound, tetraoxa[2]perfluoroarene[2]triazine (C20H6F8N6O6), composed of two tetrafluorophenylene and two triazine moieties connected by four oxygen atoms, was crystallized via slow evaporation of a dichloromethane solution, yielding two polymorphs: block- (I) and plate-shaped (II) crystals. Polymorph I (triclinic, P1, V = 516 Å3 at 173 K) was previously reported by Yang et al. [(2015. Org. Lett.15, 4414–4417] whereas the newly identified polymorph II (triclinic, P1, V = 1085 Å3 at 100 K) shares the same space group but has a unit-cell volume twice as large, accommodating two symmetrically distinct molecules, Molecule-1 and Molecule-2, with a different molecular arrangement. Since these crystals are expected to exhibit the characteristics of non-porous adaptive crystals, detailed analyses of intermolecular interactions were conducted, revealing that C—F⋯π-hole interactions are more pronounced in II than in I. Hirshfeld surface analysis at 100 K revealed that the primary contributions to the crystal packing in polymorph I were F⋯F (17.1%), F⋯H/H⋯F (21.5%), C⋯H/H⋯C (6.3%), C⋯F/F⋯C (4.5%) and C⋯O/O⋯C (9.2%) interactions, whereas in polymorph II, these interactions were F⋯F (9.9% and 10.0%), F⋯H/H⋯F (20.9% and 26.5%), C⋯H/H⋯C (6.3% and 2.9%), C⋯F/F⋯C (8.5% and 10.0%) and C⋯O/O⋯C (4.9% and 4.6%) for Molecule-1 and Molecule-2, respectively. Powder X-ray diffraction analysis indicates that polymorph I is the more stable crystalline form, predominantly obtained through rapid precipitation or by grinding the crystals.

The composition of the nitro-substituted compound 6-[4-(1-cyclohexyl-1H-tetrazol-5-yl)butoxy]-8-nitro-3,4-dihydroquinolin-2(1H)-one has been unequivocally established from single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The molecular conformation and the role of the different intermolecular interactions in the crystal packing has also been explored.
The crystal structure of 6-[4-(1-cyclohexyl-1H-tetrazol-5-yl)butoxy]-8-nitro-3,4-dihydroquinolin-2(1H)-one, C20H26N6O4 (I), was characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The primary focus was to establish the position of the nitro group, the molecular conformation, and the role of intermolecular interactions towards the crystal packing of I. The crystalline structure is mainly consolidated by π–π, C—H⋯O, C—H⋯N, N⋯C(π) and O⋯C(π) interactions. The contributions of different interactions towards the crystal packing were further analyzed using Hirshfeld surface and fingerprint plots.
