In the structure of the title co-crystal, C3H3N3O2·C5H8N2, the components are linked by a set of directional O—H⋯N, N—H⋯O, N—H⋯N and C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds to yield a two-dimensional mono-periodic arrangement. The structure propagates in the third dimension by extensive π–π stacking inter­actions of nearly parallel mol­ecules of the two components, following an alternating sequence. The primary structure-defining inter­action is very strong oxime-OH donor to pyrazole-N acceptor hydrogen bond [O⋯N = 2.587 (2) Å], while the significance of weaker hydrogen bonds and π–π stacking inter­actions is comparable.

In the title compound, mol­ecules are connected by inter­molecular C—H⋯S hydrogen bonds with [R_{2}^{2}](10) ring motifs, forming ribbons along the b-axis direction. C—H⋯π inter­actions consolidate the ribbon structure while van der Waals forces between the ribbons ensure the cohesion of the crystal structure.

The synthesis, crystal structure and Hirshfeld analysis of cis-jasmone 4-ethyl­thio­semicarbazone are reported. The crystallographically independent mol­ecule shows disorder over the jasmone carbon chain and, in the crystal, the mol­ecules are linked by H⋯S and H⋯N inter­actions into mono-periodic hydrogen-bonded ribbons parallel to the b-axis.

δ-Valerolactone was reacted with hydrazine hydrate in methanol affording crystals of 5-hy­droxy­penta­nehydrazide, which were characterized via single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The compound crystallizes in the ortho­rhom­bic space group Pca21 without any crystallization solvent. The hydrazide functional group shows C—N and C=O bond lengths measuring 1.3376 (17) Å and 1.2375 (16) Å, respectively.

In the crystal structure of the title compound, discrete complexes with a rare Co coordination are found, in which the CoII cations are fivefold coordinated by two thio­cyanate anions and three 4-methyl­pyridine N-oxide coligands within a slightly distorted trigonal–bipyramidal coordination.

The crystal structure is reported of the copper(II) complex with an amino acid Schiff base ligand synthesized from azo­benzene-salicyl­aldehyde, L-leucine and copper(II) acetate. The crystal structure features N—H⋯O hydrogen bonds.

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.
