The relationship between the structures of a group of flavonoid and chromanone derivatives and their cytotoxic activity has been studied. An inverse relationship was found between the percentage contribution of C⋯C contacts to the Hirshfeld surface and cytotoxic activity against the WM-115 cancer line.

In the crystal structure of a novel stilbene salicylhydrazone derivative, there is a one-dimensional channel for DMSO molecules, which may induce the easy removal of DMSO upon heating, and the crystal shows switchable luminescence colouration by simply removing or re-adding DMSO.

A new family of lanthanide(III) coordination polymers based on 3,3′-[(5-carboxy-1,3-phenylene)bis(oxy)]dibenzoic acid has been structurally characterized and the magnetic properties of the GdIII complex and the luminescence properties of the PrIII, EuIII and GdIII complexes were investigated.

A new langbeinite-type phosphate K2GdHf(PO4)3 with Gd|Hf occupancy disorder was prepared and structurally determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. Ce3+ was then introduced into the Gd3+ sites to prepare polycrystalline K2Gd0.99Ce0.01Hf(PO4)3 and its luminescence properties were studied.

Dispiro[indoline-3,3′-pyrrolizine-1′,5′′-thiazolidine]s containing four contiguous stereogenic centres have been synthesized with high regio- and stereoselectivity in a one-pot procedure using simple starting materials. The various modes of supramolecular assembly depend upon different combinations of N—H⋯N, N—H⋯O, N—H⋯S=C and C—H⋯S=C hydrogen bonds.

Solvatomorphism was observed in a fluorobenzene-substituted dihydropyrimidinone derivative, where two solvatomorphs, namely, those with carbon tetrachloride and ethyl acetate, and one anhydrous form were isolated through extensive crystallization methods. The bulk compound was prepared using a simple and environmentally benign one-pot synthesis. Thermal characteristics of the forms have been analysed in addition to understanding the intermolecular interactions contributing to the crystal packing.

The one-dimensional structure of BATZM·Cl2 can be described as a rhombic helix. The compound crystallizes in the monoclinic space group C2/c with Z = 4. Electrostatic attraction and extensive hydrogen bonding yields a dense three-dimensional structure.

The synthesis and structures of three related compounds are reported, namely, a diorgano selenide and its palladium(II) and mercury(II) complexes. In the complexes, the ligand is coordinated to the Pd atom via N and arene C atoms, while it is coordinated to the Hg atom via Se and N atoms.

The dipharmacophore compound 3-cyclopropyl-5-(2-hydrazinylpyridin-3-yl)-1,2,4-oxadiazole has been synthesized and two concomitant polymorphs have been thoroughly studied. The application of classical and periodic quantum chemical calculations identified a difference in the crystal packing, which is classified as an isotropic packing of dimers in the triclinic form and as a columnar packing of molecules in the orthorhombic form.
