The reaction between 2-pyridylselenenyl chloride and isobutyronitrile results in the formation of the corresponding cationic pyridinium-fused 1,2,4-selenodiazole, namely, 3-(propan-2-yl)-1,2,4-[1,2,4]selenadiazolo[4,5-a]pyridin-4-ylium chloride, C9H11N2Se+·Cl−, in high yield (89%). The bifurcated Se⋯Cl−⋯H—Cl chalcogen-hydrogen-bonding interactions were analysed by DFT followed by a topological analysis of the electron-density distribution.

The title compound crystallizes in the monoclinic system (space group P21/n) with two molecules in the asymmetric unit, which are linked by C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds. Hirshfeld surface analysis showed that the most significant contributions to the crystal packing are from H⋯O/O⋯H, H⋯C/C⋯H and H⋯H interactions. A DFT study was conducted using three different levels of theory.

The molecule of the title compound is twisted end to end so that the ferrocenyl groups are nearly perpendicular to one another. The central N/C/N unit is disordered. In the crystal, several C—H⋯π(ring) interactions lead to the formation of layers parallel to (010), which are connected by further C—H⋯π(ring) interactions.

In the title compound, the quinoxaline units are distinctly non-planar and twisted end-to-end. In the crystal, C—H⋯O and C—H⋯N hydrogen bonds link the molecules into chains extending along the a-axis direction. The chains are linked through π-stacking interactions between inversion-related quinoxaline moieties.

The crystal structure of the tetraethylammonium salt of the non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug nimesulide (polymorph II), C8H20N+·C13H11N2O5S−, was determined using single-crystal X-ray diffraction. There are differences in the geometry of both the nimesulide anion and the tetraethylammonium cation in polymorphs I and II of the title compound.

Three hexacoordinated bis(aryl)silicon(IV) complexes of 1-oxopyridin-2-one (OPO) are reported, each of which exhibit C/N site disorder in their pyridine rings. In (C6F5)2Si(OPO)2, the equal disorder ratios and solution NMR characterization together indicate the presence of a single totally asymmetric ON-trans-OC isomer. Unequal disorder ratios in p-tolyl2Si(OPO)2 and in mesityl2Si(OPO)2 indicate the presence of up to three isomers.

In the title compound, molecular pairs are linked by N—H⋯N hydrogen bonds along the c-axis direction and C—H⋯S and C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds along the b-axis direction, with (12) and (16) motifs, respectively, thus forming layers parallel to the (10) plane. In addition, C=S⋯π and C≡N⋯π interactions between the layers ensure crystal cohesion.

A solution of 2-hydroxy-3,5-bis(1-methylethyl)benzoic acid copper(II) hydrate (C26H34CuO6·xH2O), also known as copper(II) 3,5-diisopropylsalicylate hydrate, in dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) affords crystals of tetrakis-3,5-diisopropylsalicylatobis-dimethylsulfoxidodicopper(II), [Cu(II)2(3,5-DIPS)4(DMSO)2], upon evaporation. The structure has an empirical formula of [Cu2(C13H17O3)4(C2H6OS)2] and consists of a centrosymmetric binuclear copper complex surrounded by four 3,5-diisopropylsalicylate ligands. Each copper atom is attached to four oxygen atoms in an almost square-planar fashion, with the addition of a DMSO ligand in an apical position leading to a square-pyramidal arrangement.

The title compound crystallizes in the centrosymmetric orthorhombic space group Pbca, with 8 molecules in the unit cell. The main feature noticeable in the structure is the impact of the tricyanovinyl (TCV) group in forcing partial planarity of the portion of the molecule carrying the TCV group and directing the molecular packing in the solid state, resulting in the formation of π-stacks of dimers within the unit cell.
