[pi]-[pi] stacking in 7,8,15,16-tetraazadibenzo[b,n]perylene monohydrate at 110 K

Z. Stein and I. Goldberg

Abstract: The title compound, C24H12N4·H2O, characterized earlier with limited precision [Rudi, Benayahu, Goldberg & Kashman (1988). Tetrahedron Lett. 29, 6655-6656], was redetermined at ca 110 K in the context of its uniquely interesting metal complexation and crystal packing features. It reveals tight stacking of the flat aromatic molecules, arranged in layered zones parallel to the ab plane of the crystal structure.
