A new dithiolene derivative has been synthesized from [TBA]2[Zn(dmit)2] and 3-chloro-2,4-pentanedione. Crystals were obtained by slow evaporation of an acetonitrile solution of the title compound, which crystallizes in the triclinic space group P. The structure of the S—C heterocycle includes two pentadione moieties that are outside of the plane of the molecule. Intra- and intermolecular hydrogen bonds are observed, as well as C—H⋯S, S⋯S and O⋯H short contacts from other intermolecular interactions.

The new title aza-crown ether has been synthesized by a deamination reaction and its crystal structure has been determined at 120 K. The title molecule contains a 16-membered macrocycle with the conformation of the C—O—C—C—O—C—C—O—C polyether chain being t–g(-)–t–t–g(+)–t (t = trans, 180°; g = gauche, ±60°).

The three [3.3.1] metallacryptate complexes [Hpy]2[GdAl6(H2shi)2(shi)7(py)1.855(H2O)2]·7.396py·H2O, 1, [Hpy]2[DyAl6(H2shi)2(shi)7(py)1.891(H2O)2]·7.429py·H2O, 2, and [Hpy]2[YbAl6(H2shi)2(shi)7(py)1.818(H2O)2]·7.386py·H2O, 3, where Hpy+ is pyridinium, shi3− is salicylhydroximate, and py is pyridine, consist of an aluminium-based metallacryptand that captures an LnIII ion in the central cavity. The metallacryptand portions are comprised of an Al—N—O repeat unit; thus, they can be considered three-dimensional metallacrowns. The encapsulated LnIII ions are nine-coordinate with a spherical capped-square-antiprism geometry, while the six AlIII ions are all octahedral. Four of the AlIII ions are chiral centers with 2 Δ and 2 Λ stereoconfigurations. The remaining two AlIII ions have trans chelate rings from two different shi3− ligands.

The 3′-cyano-4-methylchalcone crystal structure exhibits close contacts with the cyano nitrogenatom, which do not appear in previously reported disubstituted cyanochalcones. This structure is the first reported for a meta-cyano chalcone, while noting that the structure for 3′-bromo-4-methylchalcone is also a first.

The structures of four alkali propionates, M+(C2H5COO)−; M+ = Na+, K+, Rb+, Cs+, have been determined. All of them show close structural similarity, which is manifested by the coordination of the cation by six oxygen atoms in a chessboard motif, forming a bilayer. This bilayer is situated between hydrophobic layers composed of dangling ethyl chains. The structures are built up by stacking of these sandwiches.
