The crystal structures of two chromone derivatives are described, one of which has two independent molecules in the asymmetric unit. A comparison of the dihedral angles between the mean planes of the central chromone core with those of the substituents shows that each molecule differs significantly from the others.

The title complex is one of the few structurally characterized coordination compounds of an organotin(IV) trihalide with 2,2′-biypridine. Its distorted octahedral geometry shows a meridional arrangement of the I atoms and the methyl group is in-plane with the five-membered chelate ring. Directional intermolecular interactions are restricted to weak I⋯H van der Waals contacts.

In the title coordination polymer, [Co(C3H3O4)Cl(H2O)]n, the sixfold coordination environment of the CoII atom consists of two O atoms from a chelating hydrogen malonate anion (HMal−), one O atom originating from a μ2-bridging malonate ligand (HMal−), one O atom from a water molecule and two μ2-bridging Cl− atoms, connecting neighbouring Co2Cl4 motifs into a two-dimensional polymer extending parallel to (001). Interlayer O—H⋯O hydrogen bonds link the layers into a three-dimensional network.

The inorganic part of the crystal structure of the 1-D hybrid compound (C4N2H12)2[PbI5]I·H2O contains corner-sharing [PbI6]4− octahedra running as zigzag chains along the a axis. The organic (piprazineH2)2+ cations are lodged around the anionic framework. Water molecules and isolated iodine ions play an important role in the structure connectivity.

The title cobalt(II) complex consists of a CoCl2 moiety linked to the terminal N atoms of two dimethyl N-cyanodithioiminocarbonate molecules which leads to an overall distorted tetrahedral configuration around the CoII atom. Weak C—H⋯Cl and C—H⋯S hydrogen-bonding interactions consolidate the packing of the structure.

The asymmetric unit of the title compound contains two crystallographically unique copper complexes. In each complex, the Cu atom is bound to two chloride ligands and to three N atoms of the 2-(4-trifluoromethylbenzylideneamino)ethylamine-bis(2–2aminoethyl)amine ligand to give a distorted square-based pyramidal geometry in which the axial Cu—Cl bond is elongated, indicative of Jahn–Teller distortion. A Cu atom from a symmetry-related molecule is in nearby proximity to the remaining axial Cu site, thus the overall geometry about each Cu atom could be described as being between distorted square-based pyramidal and very elongated Jahn–Teller-distorted octahedral.

The Mn2+ ion in [Mn(bdc)(Hspar)2(H2O)0.25]·2H2O (Hspar = sparfloxacin and bdc = benzene-1,4-dicarboxylate) is coordinated by two O,O′-bidentate Hspar neutral molecules (which exist as zwitterions) and an O,O′-bidentate bdc dianion to generate a distorted MnO6 trigonal prism. In [Cu(Hspar)2](bdc)·2H2O,the Cu2+ ion lies on a crystallographic inversion centre and a CuO4 square-planar geometry arises from its coordination by two O,O′-bidentate Hspar molecules. The bdc dianion acts as a counter-ion to the cationic complex and does not bond to the metal ion.

The reaction of 1-naphthol with cyclohexadiene in the presence of catalytic amounts of Lewis acid, which interacts with 1-naphthol with release of protons, does not afford the Diels–Alder adduct but the Friedel–Crafts products followed by aromatization. The crystal structure of the final tetrahydrobenzonaphthofuran product is described.
