Accepted 21 July 2026

Synthesis and structure of 4-(benz­yloxy)phenyl 3,5-di­methyl­benzoate

In the title compound, the dihedral angles between the central and peripheral aromatic rings are 83.47 (2) and 66.00 (2)° and the packing is consolidated by C—H⋯π inter­actions.

Accepted 17 July 2026

Synthesis, crystal structure and thermal reactivity of di­aqua­dithio­cyanato­bis­(pyridine-4-carbo­nitrile)cobalt(II)

In the crystal structure of the title compound, the cobalt cations are octa­hedrally coordinated by two terminal N-bonding thio­cyanate anions, two 4-cyano­pyridine ligands and two water mol­ecules into discrete complexes that are linked by inter­molecular O—H⋯S hydrogen bonding into layers that condense into a three-dimensional hydrogen bonded network by weak inter­molecular C—H⋯N inter­actions.

Accepted 17 July 2026

Synthesis and crystal structure of poly[μ-2,6-di­methyl­pyrazine-μ3-iodido-μ2-iodido-dicopper(I)] with an unusual CuI substructure

In the crystal structure of the title compound, two different CuI substructures are observed, which condense into layers by way of bridging 2,6-di­methyl­pyrazine ligands.

Syntheses, crystal structure and thermal behavior of poly[di-μ-bromido-μ-2,3-di­methyl­pyrazine-κ2N1:N4-cadmium(II)]

In the crystal structure of the title compound, the cadmium cations are linked by pairs of μ-1,1 bridging bromide anions into chains that are further connected into layers by the bridging 2,3-di­methyl­pyrazine coligands.

Accepted 17 July 2026

Synthesis, crystal structure and stability of the monoclinic supra­molecular isomer of bis­(ethyl­ene­thio­urea)di­thio­cyanato­cobalt(II)

The title compound is a new monoclinic isomer of Co(NCS)2(C3H6N2S)2. The cobalt cations are tetra­hedrally coordinated by two N-bonding thio­cyanate anions and two ethyl­ene­thio­urea ligands into discrete complexes. Solvent-mediated conversion experiments prove that the new isomer is thermodynamically stable at room temperature, whereas the known triclinic isomer with an octa­hedral cobalt coordination and a chain structure is metastable.
