In the title compound, the central OsII ion is ligated by a hexahaptic η6 p-cymene ring, a Br− ligand and two O atoms of a chelating tropolonate group. The p-cymene ligand presents more than one conformation, giving rise to a discrete disorder, which was modelled with two different orientations with occupancy values of 0.561 (15) and 0.439 (15).

3,3′-[(3-Methoxy-4-hydroxyphenyl)methanediyl]bis(4-hydroxy-2H-chromen-2-one), the 4-hydroxy-3-methoxyphenyl-substituted derivative of dicoumarol, was deprotonated by the addition of triethylamine, yielding the respective ammonium salt which was crystallized from a methanol solution. The deprotonated dicoumarol derivative exhibits an intramolecular negative charge-assisted hydrogen bond between the deprotonated and non-deprotonated alcohol functions of the coumarol substituents.

The coordination geometry in (n-Bu)2Sn[S2CN(CH2CH2OCH3)2]2, (I), is based on a skewed trapezoidal bipyramid, while that in (C6H5)3Sn[S2CN(CH3)CH2CH2OCH3], (II), is based on a tetrahedron. In the crystal of (I), supramolecular layers parallel to (10-1) are sustained by methylene-C—H⋯O(methoxy) interactions, while in (II), centrosymmetric dimers are formed via pairwise weak phenyl-C—H⋯π(phenyl) contacts.

The aldoximes (E)-1-naphthaldehyde oxime (I) and E-phenanthrene-9-carbaldehyde oxime (II) were synthesized and characterized using NMR and XRD. The crystal structures of both (I) and (II) are similar with a single intermolecular O—H⋯N hydrogen-bonding interaction, giving rise to the formation of one-dimensional polymeric chains extending along the 21 (b) screw axes in each.

The molecular structure of (2E)-1,4-bis(4-chlorophenyl)but-2-ene-1,4-dione (1) is composed of two p-chloro phenyl rings, each bonded on opposite ends to a near planar 1,4-trans enedione moiety [–C(= O)—CH=CH—(C=O)–]. (2E)-1,4-Bis(4-bromophenyl)but-2-ene-1,4-dione (2) has a similar structure to (1), but with two p-bromo phenyl rings and a less planar enedione group. In the crystal, molecules of (1) exhibit C—Cl⋯Cl type I interactions, whereas molecules of (2) present C–Br⋯Br type II interactions.

Reaction of N-(4-chlorobenzenesulfonyl)glycinyl hydrazide with 4-nitrobenzaldehyde gives the N,N-dimethylformamide monosolvated N-acylhydrazone derivative, (E)-N-{2-[2-(4-nitrobenzylidene)- hydrazine-1-yl]-2-oxoethyl}-4-χhlorobenzenesulfonamide. Rings of (10) and (11) graph-set motifs are formed in the crystal structure by N—H⋯O and C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds. The two-dimensional fingerprint (FP) plots for significant intermolecular interactions indicate that the greatest contribution is from the O⋯H/H⋯O contacts (31.3%), corresponding to N⋯H⋯O/C⋯H⋯O interactions.
