In the crystal, inter­molecular N—H⋯O, O—H⋯Cl, O—H⋯O and C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds connect mol­ecules to form a three-dimensional network. The mol­ecules are further connected by C—H⋯π inter­actions and face-to-face π–π inter­actions into layers parallel to the (001) plane.

In the title compound, the dihedral angles between the central aromatic ring and its peripheral rings are are 76.57 (2) and 69.71 (3)° and the C10 alkyl chain adopts an extended conformation.

In the crystal, the mol­ecules are linked by inter­molecular C—H⋯O and C—H⋯N hydrogen bonds, forming sheets parallel to the (010) plane. Furthermore, mol­ecules are connected by C—H⋯π and π–π [centroid-to-centroid distance = 3.7380 (12) Å] inter­actions, forming ribbons along the a-axis direction.

A hydrated salt of 3-methyl­pyridine and 5-nitro­isophthalic acid has been synthesized using the reflux method. The crystal structure is consolidated by a network of significant inter­molecular inter­actions, including O—H⋯O, N—H⋯O, and C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds, along with additional π–π inter­actions, which collectively contribute to the robustness of the solid-state architecture.

The crystal structure of tetra­ethyl­ammonium molybdate dihydrate reveals two-dimensional layers of tetra­hedral molybdate mol­ecules bridged by water mol­ecules, with each Mo-oxo serving as a hydrogen bond acceptor.

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.
