In the complex, the ligand binds to the metal through an oxygen atom. The geometry of the seven-coordinate U atom is penta­gonal bipyramidal, with the uranyl O atoms in apical positions.

In the title compound, the tellurium(VI) and vanadium(V) atoms are statistically disordered over two of the ten metal-atom sites in the unprotonated [TeV9O28]5– heteropolyanion.

A chiral nickel(II) Schiff base complex derived from 2-hy­droxy­benzo­phenone and (1S,2S)-1,2-di­phenyl­ethyl­enedi­amine shows a λ conformation of the central di­amine chelate ring. The substituents on the C=N carbon atoms significantly affect the circular dichroism spectra.

In the title compound, [Cu2(L)2]·2CH2Cl2, the CuII ions coordinate two (S,O)-chelating aroyl­thio­urea moieties of doubly deprotonated furan-2,5-di­carbonyl­bis­(N,N-di­ethyl­thio­urea) (H2L) ligands. The coordination geometry of the metal centers is best described as a flat isosceles trapezoid with a cis arrangement of the donor atoms.

The crystal structure of a metabolite of the insecticide/acaricide etoxazole, designated R13 is presented along with a Hirshfeld surface analysis of inter­molecular inter­actions present in the crystal structure.

Theoretical and experimental structural studies of the title compound were undertaken using X-ray and DFT methods. The inter­actions present in the crystal were analyzed using Hirshfeld surface and MEP surface analysis. Docking studies with a covid-19 main protease (PDB ID: 6LU7) as the target receptor indicate that the synthesized compound may be a potential candidate for pharmaceutical applications.

The crystal structure of aluminium phospho­rus chloride was determined and refined using single-crystal X-ray diffraction data. The compound crystallizes in the ortho­rhom­bic space group Pbcm with the asymmetric unit comprises one Al atom, one P atom, and five Cl atoms. The structure is characterized by isolated AlCl4 and PCl4 tetra­hedra, isostructural with FePCl8 and GaPCl8.

Crystallization of the title compound from CH2Cl2/n-pentane (1:5 v/v) at room temperature gave two polymorphs, which crystallize in monoclinic (P21/c; α form) and ortho­rhom­bic (Pna21; β form) space groups. The ReI complex mol­ecules in either polymorph adopt a six-coordinate octa­hedral geometry with three facially-oriented carbonyl ligands, one bromido ligand, and two nitro­gen atoms from one chelating ligand ppt-OMe. In the crystal, both polymorph α and β form di-periodic sheet-like architectures supported by multiple hydrogen bonds.

The crystal structure of the co-crystal salt solvate 1,10-phenanthrolinium violurate violuric acid penta­hydrate features a tri-periodic hydrogen-bonded network with the violurate and violuric acid residues each assembled into tapes and the phenanthrolinium cations residing in channels.

The mol­ecular and crystal structure of N-(4-meth­oxy­phen­yl)picolinamide were studied and Hirshfeld surfaces and fingerprint plots were generated to investigate various inter­molecular inter­actions.

Research communications

Research communications are designed to help authors bring out the science behind their structure determinations. Authors are encouraged to report more than one structure in the same communication and also to include the results of investigations with other techniques. The Research communications format makes Acta E the natural home for structure determinations with interesting science to report.
