The absolute structure was not determined. Friedel opposites merged prior to merging of data in Pca21. H atoms were placed geometrically and allowed to ride during subsequent refinement with an isotropic displacement parameter fixed at 1.2 times Uiso for the C atom to which they are attached.

Geometry. All e.s.d.'s (except the e.s.d. in the dihedral angle between two l.s. planes) are estimated using the full covariance matrix. The cell e.s.d.'s are taken into account individually in the estimation of e.s.d.'s in distances, angles and torsion angles; correlations between e.s.d.'s in cell parameters are only used when they are defined by crystal symmetry. An approximate (isotropic) treatment of cell e.s.d.'s is used for estimating e.s.d.'s involving l.s. planes. |
Refinement. Refinement of F2 against ALL reflections. The weighted R-factor wR and goodness of fit S are based on F2, conventional R-factors R are based on F, with F set to zero for negative F2. The threshold expression of F2 > σ(F2) is used only for calculating R-factors(gt) etc. and is not relevant to the choice of reflections for refinement. R-factors based on F2 are statistically about twice as large as those based on F, and R- factors based on ALL data will be even larger. |

As part of a continuing study of cocrystal formation between organic acids and N-containing organic bases, we have determined the structure of 4,7-phenanthroline, (I), at 180 K. The molecular unit possesses pseudo-C2v point symmetry, but does not exhibit crystallographic mirror symmetry. Similar observations have been made for the isomeric 1,10-phenanthroline (OPENAN; Nishigaki et al., 1978). In the crystal structure, 4,7-phenanthroline forms planar stacks approximately along the b direction with molecules in adjacent stacks forming an interplane angle of ca 54° (Fig. 2); this contrasts with the observation of two approximately perpendicular layers in 1,10-phenanthroline. There is no conclusive evidence for directional C—H···N contacts in 4,7-phenanthroline, with the shortest H···N contacts, H1···N7i = 2.72, H8···N4ii = 3.00 and H10···N7iii = 3.00 Å, exhibiting C—H···N angles of 153.6, 128.6 and 119.5°, respectively [symmetry codes: (i) 3/2 - x, -1 + y, 1/2 + z; (ii) 1/2 + x, 1 - y, z; (iii) 3/2 - x, y, 1/2 + z].
